Groomers in South St Paul, MN

South St Paul has five grooming salons, the 5th largest choice in Dakota County, where Lakeville accounts for 8 on its own. That is enough to choose on something other than availability. Ask who is set up for your dog's coat: a salon that hand strips terriers and one that mostly does doodle trims are doing different jobs with different equipment. Three list a website; the rest are reached by phone.

If nothing here suits, the nearest larger choice is Saint Paul, about 5 miles away, with 15 salons. Worth the drive for a first appointment with a difficult coat, less so for a routine tidy up every six weeks.

The most comfortable grooming weather of the year and the best time to get a neglected coat back under control before winter closes in. Coats thicken from now on and everything gets harder.
