How Bath & Brush Pricing Really Works
Bath & Brush is mid-pack (#4 of 8 by medium-dog midpoint, ~$45). Duration 30-60 minutes; treat the size table as a booking check, not a salon quote - local labor and add-ons move the same nominal service by tens of dollars.
Mid-pack cadence: Every 4-8 weeks depending on breed and coat type Multiply the size-band midpoint by visits/year - owners usually underestimate the life-of-dog total, not the first visit.
Brush your dog at home between visits to prevent matting. Confirm inclusions before comparing mid-pack quotes; overhead and experience bend each size band without changing the service name.
