De-matting charges may apply depending on the amount of time required to complete the de-matting process. Typically, additional de-matting (via brushing or shaving) that requires more than 10 minutes of the standard appointment time will result in a charge of $1 per minute, or $60 an hour. If we attempt to de-mat but it results in excessive discomfort for the pet, we will stop the process and consult with you to discuss other options.
