 Grooming
| |
Professional grooming and grooming supplies are available at Eagle Fern Veterinary Hospital, PC. The best reunions of a pet and their owner we see are after the dog or cat has been pampered with a bath, clip and brush!

Chelle Bunch has been our groomer at Eagle Fern Veterinary Hospital, PC since 2003. Chelle has over twenty years of professional grooming experience and enjoys working with dogs and cats of all breeds.

She has a great talent at making your dog or cat look and feel its' best. Here are some examples of some 'before and afters':
With pet handling expertise, Chelle can work with even the most 'disagreeable' pet. If necessary, your pet can be given a sedative by your veterinarian prior to your pet's grooming and supervised by our technicians until fully awake.
Chelle can give you information on how often to have your pet professionally groomed, grooming tools, shampoos, conditioners, and homecare guidelines for a healthy coat and skin. We have many recommended grooming products in our retail area.
How do I make an appointment?
We do have a limited number of grooms in a day. It is advisable to make an appointment in advance, especially before a holiday. You may call (503) 630-3538 or click here to request an appointment on-line.
EFVH can send you a reminder by mail or e-mail when your pet is due for its' next grooming appointment or set up your next appointment before you leave our office.
When can I drop off and pick up my pet?
If this will be your pet's first groom with EFVH, we ask that you speak with the groomer to discuss your pet's groom. We want you to be happy when you are reunited with your pet. We can set up a check-in appointment time. We will also be happy to call you when your pet is done and ready to come home.
If your pet has been groomed at EFVH before and have no changes, we ask that you drop off and pick up your pet during our regular business hours between 9:00 am - 5:30 pm on the day of your appointment.
What do you require before grooming my pet?
We pride ourselves on maintaining a safe and healthy environment for your pets while they are staying with us for their groom. This is the reason we require vaccinations for our grooming patients. It is best that vaccinations have been done at least a few weeks prior to grooming to ensure your pet is protected.
Required vaccines for dogs include Rabies, DHP, Parvo and Bordetella (kennel cough). Required vaccines for cats include Rabies and FVRCP (upper respiratory virus).
In order to keep our friends 'flea free', we can apply effective topical flea control medication after your pet's grooming. EFVH recommends monthly flea control all year round.
If your pet has received preventive care elsewhere, please bring in vaccination records or receipts for proof of care.
Can my pet get medical care or surgery while it is being groomed at the hospital?
Yes. This is often a good opportunity to get your pet caught up on its' health care needs. Your pet can be spayed, neutered, or have its' teeth cleaned. Exams and preventive care can be performed by your pet's doctor. Upon admission, we will review your pet's health care recommendations and can prepare a cost estimate for the treatment plan.
What if the groomer notices any medical problems during my pet's groom?
Upon admission we ask for a contact number where you can be reached. We will contact you with any concerns we may have with your pet and get your consent for treatment.
Do you have general grooming advice?
All dogs and cats need grooming. Spending ten minutes every day helps increase the bond with your pet and keeps your pet's coat clean and matt free, with less shedding. Grooming your pet also makes you aware of any changes in the skin condition or the presence of fleas or skin growths. Combing your pet with a brush and comb removes dead hair and helps a cat from getting hairballs.
