De-Shedding Treatment for Dogs in Urbandale
A de-shedding treatment removes the dead undercoat trapped beneath your dog’s fur, reducing shedding by up to 90%. Available in Urbandale for double-coated and heavy-shedding breeds.


What is the process of a de-shed and what does it do for my dog?
Dogs use their coat to help control their body temperature. A dead coat no longer helps with that and will fall out, which is the shedding you see at home.
A de-shed treatment is a multi-step process built specifically to pull dead undercoat out of a double-coated dog, helping them cool naturally. It starts with a high-end de-shedding shampoo and conditioner formulated to loosen and release the dead hair sitting beneath the topcoat.
The win? Your dog gets to control their temperature and stay comfortable, naturally. For you, it means up to 90% less shedding hair around the house.
What’s included
Every de-shedding treatment is a complete service. Along with the de-shed process itself, your dog gets a nail trim, ear cleaning, anal gland expression, and a sanitary cut, so nothing else is left undone while you’re already here.

Pricing
Pricing
My de-shedding treatment is priced by your dog’s coat type - short coat versus long or double coat - and their size, so you can see exactly what to expect below before you book. Huskies have their own pricing, listed separately. Every de-shed is still subject to a matting or behavior fee if your dog’s coat or temperament calls for it, assessed in person on the day. Book online, or call or text if you want to talk it through first.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
A bath cleans the coat; my de-shedding treatment removes the dead undercoat trapped underneath it. Double-coated breeds need the de-shed, not a bath, since a bath alone won’t release that undercoat - and the de-shed can reduce shedding by up to 90%.
