All-Breed Grooming with a Gentle Touch
At Perfect Pooches Dog Training & Grooming, we believe grooming should be a calm, comfortable, and positive experience — not just a necessity. Located just outside Coalhurst on a peaceful 3.3-acre property, our all-breed dog grooming services are designed to keep your dog clean, healthy, and happy without the stress of a crowded, rushed grooming salon.
Whether your dog needs a full trim, a bath and brush, or just a tidy-up, we offer skilled, compassionate grooming tailored to your pet’s coat, temperament, and lifestyle.
What We Offer
Our grooming appointments are by reservation only, ensuring that each dog receives focused, one-on-one attention in a quiet, safe environment.
Services Include:
- Full-body clips and breed-specific trims
- Bath and brush
- Deshedding and coat maintenance
- Nail trimming and ear cleaning
- Sanitary and paw pad trimming
- Specialty care for poodles and double-coated breeds
Grooming is offered Monday through Thursday, with each session scheduled to minimize wait times and avoid unnecessary stress for your dog.
Why Our Grooming Is Different
At Perfect Pooches, we do things differently — because we know dogs thrive when they feel safe and respected.
What Sets Us Apart:
- Crates are provided but grooming dogs are offered opportunities to socialize with each other if possible. Grooming dogs are offered indoor and outdoor play space. We avoid high-velocity dryers, hand-drying each dog for a calm, stress-free experience.
- Grooming dogs have access to both indoor and outdoor play spaces.
- Hand drying only.
- Short, efficient sessions — no long waiting periods or packed schedules.
- Quiet, rural setting — away from traffic, noise, and chaos.
Your dog isn’t “just another appointment” — they’re treated with the same care we give our own pets.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a grooming appointment take?
Appointments typically last 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on coat type, condition, and the service requested. We’ll give you an estimated pick-up time when you book.
Do you groom puppies?
Yes — early grooming experiences are critical for long-term comfort. We offer puppy grooms that are short, gentle, and focused on creating a positive association with grooming tools and touch.
Will my dog be around other dogs?
Only if appropriate. While we do allow supervised socialization for well-mannered dogs, all grooming sessions are one-on-one. If your dog prefers solitude, we respect that.
How do I book an appointment?
Call us directly at (403) 381-6890 to schedule. We recommend booking in advance, especially during spring and fall when grooming demand is highest.
Give Your Dog the Care They Deserve
Grooming isn’t just about appearance — it’s about comfort, health, and quality of life. A clean, well-groomed dog is a happy dog — and a happy dog makes for a better companion.
