Poodles, Shih Tzus, and Doodles are some of the UK’s most beloved breeds — and for good reason. They’re intelligent, affectionate, and incredibly cute. But their gorgeous coats come with one catch: they require consistent, specialised grooming to stay looking and feeling their best.
At Mobile Dog Grooming UK, we regularly work with these high-maintenance coats and understand the importance of proper trimming, brushing, and coat care tailored to each breed.
🐩 Poodles: Precision & Style
Poodles have dense, curly coats that don’t shed but are prone to matting. They need professional grooming every 4–6 weeks, plus brushing every few days at home. From the classic Continental Clip to modern teddy cuts, their look is all about precision and personalisation.
🐶 Shih Tzus: Luxurious, Long Coats
Shih Tzus have a flowing double coat that tangles easily, especially around the face and legs. Routine bathing, detangling, and regular eye cleaning are essential. Many owners opt for a shorter "puppy cut" for easier upkeep.
🧸 Doodles: Designer Coats, Designer Needs
Labradoodles, Goldendoodles, and Cockapoos combine the Poodle’s curls with another breed’s coat. This can result in a variety of textures — and unpredictable matting. Doodles typically require full grooms every 4–5 weeks and at-home brushing 3–4 times per week to prevent tangles.
✂️ Mobile Grooming: The Smart Choice for High-Maintenance Coats
These breeds benefit from quiet, one-on-one grooming sessions — especially helpful for anxious or wiggly pups. With mobile grooming, your dog gets expert care without the stress of a busy salon or long wait times.
