How much does dog grooming cost in Hereford and Ludlow in 2026?
Across the 21 groomers in this directory, spanning Hereford, Leominster & Bromyard, Ross-on-Wye, Ledbury, Ludlow, Monmouth & Abergavenny and Leintwardine & Craven Arms, only one business publishes a genuine price list: Fluffy Paws Dog Grooming, based at Ravenswood Court in the Rotherwas area of Hereford. This guide sets out exactly what it charges, rather than guessing at what everyone else might.
Fluffy Paws Dog Grooming, published prices
| Service | Toy | Medium | Large | Extra large |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Full groom, from | £45 | £50 | £55 | £65 |
| De-shedding treatment, from | £35 | £40 | £45 | £55 |
Alongside those size-banded prices, Fluffy Paws also lists a puppy groom (up to six months old) at £30 flat, and a standalone nail clip at £10.
What the numbers show
The gap between the cheapest and most expensive band is £20 for both services here: a full groom runs from £45 for a toy breed up to £65 for an extra-large dog, and de-shedding runs from £35 up to £55 over the same size range. De-shedding is priced roughly £10 below the equivalent full groom at every size, which is consistent with it being a narrower, single-purpose treatment for a heavy-shedding coat rather than a complete groom with a finish and trim. The puppy groom, at £30, sits below even the toy-breed full groom, reflecting a shorter session for a young dog that isn't yet fully coated.
Why nobody else publishes a price
The other 20 businesses in this directory list services, and sometimes qualifications or opening hours, but not prices. That includes salons with a fuller service list, such as Hackles near Craven Arms (full groom, bath and tidy, hand stripping, de-shedding, puppy session and senior groom) and Dogs Delight near Ross-on-Wye (full groom, maintenance groom, de-matting and hand stripping), as well as the three mobile-only groomers covering Leominster, Ludlow and Orleton. None of them gives a figure to work from, so a price here would have to be invented, which this directory won't do.
What to ask when you call
Given that Fluffy Paws prices de-shedding and a full groom separately, it's worth asking any of the other 20 businesses whether a heavily matted or overdue coat costs more than a routine groom, since that's exactly the kind of add-on Fluffy Paws breaks out as its own line item. It's also worth asking for a price by your dog's size and coat type specifically, since the one published price list here shows a real £20 swing across sizes for the same service. Until more of this directory's groomers publish their own figures, a phone call remains the only reliable way to know what your dog's groom will cost.
