How much does dog grooming cost in Preston in 2026?
Published pricing is the exception among Preston's dog groomers: of the 41 businesses listed in this directory, spanning six town centres from Preston itself out to Chorley, Kirkham, Garstang and Blackpool, only one, Chorley Dog Groomers, publishes a genuine price list. This guide sets out exactly what is published, rather than guessing at the rest.
Published prices, September 2026
| Groomer | Where | What's published |
|---|---|---|
| Chorley Dog Groomers | Chorley | Full groom from £35; bath and blow dry from £20; puppy introduction groom £25 |
Chorley Dog Groomers' full price list
Chorley Dog Groomers, on Clydesdale Drive and run as a home-based, one-to-one salon with no crates or cage dryers, is the only business in this directory with published starting prices: £35 for a full groom, £20 for a bath and blow dry, and £25 for a puppy introduction groom. All three are listed as starting points that vary with a dog's size and coat. The groomer is Canine First Aid trained and a member of the Green Groomers Collective, which recycles clipped dog hair rather than sending it to landfill.
Why so few prices online
Most of the businesses in this directory have no independent website at all, relying on a single online listing that gives an address and phone number and little else — no service breakdown, no opening hours, and certainly no prices. Even among the twelve businesses that do have their own working site, including Bathe & Bark, Walker's Canine Care, A Fur Groom, Mutz Cutz, Doodles and Pristine Pooches, none besides Chorley Dog Groomers publishes figures; they quote on request instead. Ask for a price, or an estimate based on your dog's size and coat, before booking anywhere in this directory.
What this suggests
One data point isn't a market rate across an area this wide, but it is a starting point for a phone conversation: Chorley Dog Groomers' £20 bath and blow dry and £35 full groom are the only figures on record across all 41 businesses, from Preston's inner suburbs to the Blackpool seafront. Expect a mobile groomer coming to your door, or a salon offering extras such as Emmi-pet tooth brushing (A Fur Groom, Glamour Pooch Ltd) or combined boarding (Mill House, Lisa's Place), to price accordingly — there is no published figure from anywhere else in the coverage area to confirm that either way.
