Groomers in Hotchkiss, CO

Hotchkiss 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 Delta, about 17 miles away, with 3 salons. Worth the drive for a first appointment with a difficult coat, less so for a routine tidy up every six weeks.

Coats thicken quickly once the nights turn. Get the summer coat fully out before the winter one comes in, because trapped old undercoat under new growth is the single most common cause of a spring shave down.
