How much does dog grooming cost in Dudley and Stourbridge in 2026?
Published pricing is the exception across this directory's 42 groomers covering Dudley and Stourbridge. Only one business, Paws on Raws Grooming in Sedgley, publishes a genuine price list, banded by dog size rather than a flat rate. This guide sets out exactly what it charges rather than guessing at the rest.
Published prices, September 2026
| Groomer | Where | What's published |
|---|---|---|
| Paws on Raws Grooming | Sedgley | Grooming XS-S £30; M £35; L £45; XL-XXL £50; self-use dog wash £15; collection/drop-off service £50 |
What the one price list shows
Paws on Raws bands its full-groom price by dog size rather than charging a flat rate: £30 for the smallest breeds rising to £50 for the largest, a fairly typical spread for the area. It also runs a self-service dog wash bay at £15, for owners who want to do the washing themselves and just use the equipment, and offers a £50 collection and drop-off service for owners who can't get their dog to the salon. It takes bookings through Booksy as well as by phone.
Why so few prices online
Just three of the 42 businesses in this directory have a working website of their own: Short Bark and Sides Dog Groomers (Lower Gornal), Paws on Raws Grooming (Sedgley) and Kinver Dog Parlour (Kinver). Of those, only Paws on Raws publishes a price list; Kinver Dog Parlour says explicitly that it quotes per dog once size and coat are known, and Short Bark and Sides doesn't publish prices at all, which is common practice among independent groomers. The other 39 businesses here run on a directory listing, a Facebook page, or a phone number alone, which is the likely reason for the near-total silence on price.
What to ask when you call
With one confirmed price list for the area, ask for a like-for-like quote from more than one groomer before booking: your dog's breed and coat condition, whether nails, ears and a wash are included in the headline price, and whether de-shedding or de-matting is charged as an extra, since matting and other extras are commonly charged on the day rather than built into a base figure.
What this means for comparing groomers here
With only one published price list, cost can't be the basis for choosing between the 42 groomers in this directory's Dudley and Stourbridge coverage. Confidence level, whether a business has its own working website, and where coverage is thin are the facts actually on record, and the "how to choose" guide for this town sets those out area by area.
