Groomers in Tucker, GA

Tucker has four grooming salons, the 3rd largest choice in DeKalb County, just behind Dunwoody with 5. 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. All of them list a website as well as a phone number. One of them is a mobile groomer who will come to you, which is worth knowing if your dog finds the car or a room full of other dogs difficult.

If nothing here suits, the nearest larger choice is Lilburn, about 5 miles away, with 8 salons. Worth the drive for a first appointment with a difficult coat, less so for a routine tidy up every six weeks.

The heat breaks late here and the second coat change comes with it. This is the easiest time of year to get an appointment before the holiday rush, and a good moment to catch up if the coat has been neglected.
