Groomers in Rio Rico, AZ

Rio Rico has one grooming salon. Book further ahead than feels necessary. A full groom takes two to three hours, so a single groomer gets through very few dogs in a day and the diary fills weeks out, particularly before a holiday.

If nothing here suits, the nearest larger choice is Green Valley, about 28 miles away, with 4 salons. Worth the drive for a first appointment with a difficult coat, less so for a routine tidy up every six weeks.

The dry air that made summer bearable is hard on skin. Coats look dusty and dull, static builds in longer coats, and brushing a dry coat without a light conditioning spray breaks the hair rather than freeing it.
