Groomers in Rifle, CO

Rifle has two grooming salons. That is a small enough choice that it is worth ringing round before you settle. Ask specifically whether they take cats and whether they will handle a coat that has already matted, because those two answers vary more between salons than anything else.

If nothing here suits, the nearest larger choice is Carbondale, about 34 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.

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.
