Newfoundland Grooming in Fuquay-Varina, NC
Walk-in & same-day dog grooming appointments available in Fuquay-Varina, NC
The Newfoundland has a heavy, water-resistant double coat, and grooming it well takes a groomer who understands what that coat needs. At KurlyTails in Fuquay-Varina, NC, we groom Newfoundlands one dog at a time, in the cleanest shop in town — never rushed through an assembly line.
What a Newfoundland full groom includes
- Bath with a coat-appropriate shampoo and conditioner
- Thorough blow-dry and brush-out to find any matting early
- Breed-appropriate haircut or tidy, your choice of style
- Face, paw, and sanitary trim
- Nail trim or grinding, ear cleaning, and gland expression on request
How much does it cost to groom a Newfoundland?
This is one of the most common questions we hear, and it deserves a straight answer. Newfoundland grooming is priced by weight because the coat volume, drying time, and labor involved are significantly greater than for a smaller breed. At KurlyTails, pricing is weight-based — you can find the full breakdown on our pricing page. What we can tell you plainly: a Newfoundland takes real time done right. Expect a longer appointment than you would for a medium-sized dog.
A few things that affect the final cost of any Newfoundland groom:
- Coat condition: A coat that has been brushed regularly at home is faster and easier to groom. Heavy matting requires extra time and care — see our Matted Dog Grooming & De-Matting service for details on what that involves.
- Services added: De-shedding treatments, nail grinding, ear cleaning, and gland expression each add to the appointment scope.
- Groom frequency: Dogs on a consistent 4–6 week schedule are almost always faster to groom, which keeps costs predictable over time.
If you want a specific estimate before booking, reach out when you book and let us know your dog’s weight and coat condition. We will give you an honest answer.
How often should a Newfoundland be groomed?
Most Newfoundlands do best on a 4–6 week schedule, with regular brushing at home in between. Tell us about your dog when you book and we will tailor the visit. We welcome every breed — see our all-breed dog grooming.
Specialized Care for Newfoundland Coats
Newfoundlands have unique grooming needs due to their dense, double coats. Regular grooming helps prevent mats, reduces shedding, and keeps their coat healthy and beautiful. Our Matted Dog Grooming & De-Matting service is perfect for handling any tough tangles and keeping your Newfoundland comfortable and stylish.
De-Shedding Techniques for Newfoundlands
A professional de-shedding treatment is crucial for managing the copious amount of hair Newfoundlands shed. At KurlyTails, our Dog De-Shedding Treatment effectively minimizes unwanted fur around your home and ensures your dog’s coat stays healthy and shiny.
What to expect at your Newfoundland’s appointment
We groom one dog at a time, which means your Newfoundland has our full attention from the moment they arrive until they are ready to go home. There is no cage-drying and no waiting behind a line of other dogs. The appointment runs longer than a typical breed visit — plan for several hours — but your dog is never left unattended. We are open daily from 8 AM to 6 PM, so scheduling around your day is straightforward.
If this is your Newfoundland’s first professional groom, or if you have a young dog just getting started, take a look at our Puppy’s First Grooming page for guidance on what to expect and how to set your dog up for a lifetime of easy groom visits.
