Warm-water baths and breed-specific haircuts for small dogs, brought to Stockton doors by appointment.
Stockton dog owners have a lot of choices for exercise. Paul E. Weston Park has a fenced dog area with a small dog section, Constitution Park and Van Buskirk Park have dog areas, and Mattie Harrell Park is open to dogs too. Life ranges from Brookside and Country Club lawns to Lincoln Village, where some homes sit on the water. The weather swings, too. Winters bring heavy tule fog and damp mornings, while summer can top 100 degrees on about 15 days. Dogs here end up damp, muddy or hot, and a coat can tangle fast.
That is where the van helps. I groom one small dog at a time, under 35 pounds, with warm water and a drain tank, so there is no mess in your home. After a foggy, soggy stretch I work out mats and tangles close to the skin and clean paws and legs. Before a hot spell, a trimmed, brushed coat sheds heat better. You text first, and I confirm I can fit you into my route.

My van is based in Oakley and I travel to Stockton by appointment. Text me your address and your dog's size and breed, and I will confirm whether I can fit you into my route. I also groom dogs in nearby Lathrop, Manteca and Lodi, all by appointment.
Yes. Tule fog keeps the air damp for days, and damp fur tangles and mats more easily, especially behind the ears, in the armpits and on the legs. Regular brushing and a trim before winter help a lot.
Keep the coat short enough to brush easily and free of mats, since packed fur traps heat. Walk early, carry water, and keep paws off hot pavement. A clean, trimmed coat helps a small dog cool off.

I groom small dogs, generally under 35 pounds. My van and my one-on-one setup are built around keeping small dogs calm and comfortable.
I bring a self-contained grooming van to your home with my own warm water and a drain tank. Your dog is groomed right outside your door, so there is no mess and no water used inside your house.
Text or call (925) 666-4861 and I will get back to you to set a time. I take appointments from 8:00am to 1:30pm and I am closed Thursdays and Sundays.
