Boutique dog grooming in Subiaco

The finish you would expect from a hairdresser.

Wash, dry, cut and brush-out done the way a good hair salon does it: one dog on the table, the style agreed before the clippers start, and a groomer trained by hand.

How a groom runs

Four steps, one dog at a time

This is the order the ad shows and the order the salon actually runs, every visit, on every coat. Nothing is skipped to fit more dogs in the day.

01 · Consult

Sit down, no clippers yet

Ten minutes on the salon floor, not the table: the coat, the skin and the length you actually want, written down as a firm price before anything starts.

Free, about 10 minutes

Book a style consult

02 · Wash

Two shampoos, a proper rinse

Shampooed where the coat needs it, rinsed until the water actually runs clean, towelled first so the dryer has less work left to do.

$68 to $140 by size and coat

See wash and blow-dry

03 · Dry

Hand dried, never caged

Stand dried and brushed section by section on the table, a groomer beside the dog the whole time, until the comb runs clean from skin to tip.

No cage drying, ever

See brush-out and stand dry

04 · Finish

Clipped or scissored to length

Body to the length agreed at drop-off, face and feet hand-finished with blunt-tipped shears, the blade and length written down so next time matches.

$115 to $265 by size and coat

Suite 2, 8 Bower Lane, Subiaco

A consult before the clippers, every time.

Fringe & Fur is a four-person Subiaco grooming salon built by a hairdresser who swapped clients for dogs, where every coat gets the same consultation, the same one-dog-at-a-time attention and the same finish she used to give a haircut.

  • One dog on the table at a time, run on an appointment book the way a hair salon is
  • Every groomer trained hands-on by a former hairdresser, so the finish is judged the way a haircut is
  • No cage drying: every dog is hand or stand dried beside a groomer
  • A style consult before the first groom, so the cut agreed at drop-off is the cut you collect

Since 2019

Averaged over the last twelve months of the appointment book.

On the retail wall

Priced at what we pay, plus a small margin.

What's on the table is on the shelf

The shampoo, the leave-in mist and the steel comb we use on every dog are the same bottles and tools sold at the front, so a routine that works here keeps working at home.

  • Coat care

    Gentle everyday shampoo, 500ml

    The plain, gentle shampoo we use in the bath, in a takeaway bottle. Dilutes well, does not strip a coat and suits dogs with the dry, itchy skin a Perth summer brings on.

    $32

  • Leave-in detangling mist, 200ml, sold at Fringe & Fur

    Coat care

    Leave-in detangling mist, 200ml

    A light leave-in spray to work through a dry coat before you brush it, the same idea as a leave-in conditioner for hair. Most owners of longer-coated dogs are missing exactly this.

    $28

  • Paw and nose finishing balm, 50ml, sold at Fringe & Fur

    Coat care

    Paw and nose finishing balm, 50ml

    A thick beeswax and oil balm for pads that have had too much hot pavement, or noses that have had too much Subiaco sun.

    $22

First time, or a nervous dog

We book slower for exactly this reason

A dog that has never been on a table, or one that has had a bad groom before, gets the quiet slot at the start or end of the day, not a squeeze between two other bookings. Puppies get three short visits before a real groom is ever attempted.

  • If the finish is not what you asked for, bring your dog back within seven days and we will fix it at no charge
  • We show you the cut before we start, the same as any hairdresser would
  • A dog that has had enough goes home part-groomed and you are only charged for the time worked
  • One dog on the table at a time, so nobody's dog waits in a crate for a groomer to be free
  • No cage drying, ever: every dog is hand or stand dried beside a groomer

What Subiaco says

Not a dog wash. An actual finish.

  • Our cavoodle came home looking like she'd been to an actual hair salon, not a dog wash. Chloe showed me exactly where she was starting to felt behind the ears and what to do about it at home.

  • Booked the de-shedding for our shepherd expecting a quick brush. Jack filled most of a bin bag. The house has been liveable for six weeks.
