Spa & Bathing Services

Spa Services

Spa services are performed in a cozy, temperature-controlled area of the hospital during our normal business hours, by appointment. 

At Animal Hospital of Dunedin, we offer the following spa services for cats and dogs:

• Baths clean dirt and pet odor from your pet’s skin and coat. We’ll choose a shampoo that is appropriate for your pet’s skin and coat, clean the ears, and follow up with a blow dry.
• Medicated Baths soothe skin irritation, alleviate discomfort caused by fungal and bacterial infections, treat dry skin, and eliminate the presence of parasites. We’ll choose a shampoo that is appropriate for your pet’s skin and coat, clean the ears, and follow up with a blow dry.
• Brushing untangles painful and unsightly knots and mats in the fur. 
• Nail Trims relieve the discomfort of overgrown nails, prevent infection, and avoid injury. After the trimming, we will use a professional nail grinder to bring the nails to a smooth finish.

Well-groomed pets are also naturally less destructive to your home! Overgrown nails and an untidy coat can lead to scratched surfaces and excessive shedding around your home.

All spa services require a current Rabies vaccine. If your pet is not up-to-date, we will administer the vaccination prior to their appointment for an additional fee.

How Often Does My Pet Need a Bath

How often your pet should be bathed depends on their lifestyle, coat type, any current medical considerations, and your personal preference. For instance, if your dog spends a lot of time being active outdoors, such as at dog parks or the beach, they may need weekly baths. On the other hand, if you have a senior pet that spends a lot of time curled up on your lap, they may only need a bath once a month. Please do not hesitate to ask our professional grooming staff any questions you may have about your pet’s grooming needs.
