Welcome to Meggo's Gentle Grooming

The canine world is currently experiencing a respiratory disease of unknown origin, and understandably lots of folks are worried for their four-legged family members.  We want to let you know to please heed any advice from your veterinarian, even if that means canceling an appointment with us.  The health and safety of the dogs in our care is our primary concern, so if your pup is immuno-compromised, elderly, or unvaccinated it may be best to keep them away from other dogs for the time being.  We are cage-free, and so there is always some risk that we can't avoid with dog-to-dog contact, but we want to let you know what we are doing to help keep our shop disinfected and as safe as possible...

​

1) We are asking all our guests to please drop off and pick up as promptly as possible to reduce the amount of dogs waiting on the floor and sharing a space. 

​

2) We ask that you inspect your dog before your scheduled appointment for any sign of illness, and if any symptoms are observed, please call us immediately to cancel your appointment (yes, even if it is at the last minute, you will not be subject to a last-minute cancelation fee).  

​

3) Signs to look out for are:                                                             

- Cough                                                                 

-Runny Nose/ Eyes                                               

-Vomiting/Diarrhea                                              

-Lethargy 

                                                            

4) We will also inspect your dog when they arrive for signs of these symptoms, and we will ask any sick pets to please return home.  That said we assure you all that we will get your pups back on the schedule in a timely fashion as soon as they are well again.

 

5) We are rigorously disinfecting our shop in between dogs to keep the space sanitized.  Tubs, tables, floors, surfaces, equipment... even the air is being disinfected 4-5 times a day.  

​

6) We are washing our hands and sanitizing our aprons and smocks to be sure we are not passing germs on from one dog to another.

​

We are doing the very best we can to help contain the spread of this disease, and we will continue to work in partnership with our neighbors and fellows in the pet care community to spread awareness and answer any questions.
