Bespoke dog grooming and teeth cleaning on Railway Street, Malton, specialising in the un-groomable dog

Groucho’s is my dog grooming and teeth cleaning salon in Malton. I’m Jenn, and the dogs who don’t enjoy being groomed are the ones I specialise in.

Grooming at Groucho’s

Every dog comes up the stairs on Railway Street as an individual, and gets a groom that suits them. These are the appointments I book.

Groucho’s appointments

Grooming and teeth

  • Bespoke grooms

    A groom fitted to your dog and their coat. Some coats need a very particular clip and style, and I’ll do the homework to get it right, the way I did for Freddy’s single, curly wool coat.

  • Teeth cleaning

    A teeth clean with an assessment, booked on its own or alongside a groom. Groucho’s is a grooming and teeth cleaning salon, so it’s a proper part of the job here, not an extra.

  • Nails

    Nails clipped, then filed down with a dremel and rounded off, so they’re smooth rather than sharp.

  • Puppy grooms

    Puppies are welcome from their very first groom. One of my regulars, Ollie, has been coming since his first puppy groom at 16 weeks.

Plus the un-groomable

My speciality is “the un-groomable” dog. If yours has never been to a groomer, or has never enjoyed it, they’re exactly who Groucho’s is for.

A regular’s story

Freddy comes from Hemingbrough every six weeks

“Freddy has been with me for 4yrs and travels from Hemingbrough every 6weeks! He is an Australian Cobberdog with a single, curly, wool coat that requires a specific clip and style.”

Jenn, Groucho’s

I’d never groomed a Cobber before Freddy’s first appointment, so his coat got a lot of excitement and research before he ever stepped on the table.

Teeth cleaning, as well as grooming

“Jen has done amazing work with my Greyhounds teeth. Very knowledgeable in what she does, very friendly and caring not only with the dogs but the customer too. I would highly recommend Groucho’s to anyone. Keep up the good work girls xx”

Book a teeth clean and assessment on its own, or add one to a groom. Nails can be clipped, dremel-filed and rounded at the same visit.

What owners say after a groom

4.7 on Google, 25 reviews100% recommend on Facebook, 19 reviews

“Excellent dog groomers! Our quite highly stung elderly red setter (who we had inherited) wasn’t used to going to dog groomers. The gentle way they treated her, and the immense level of patience given to her meant that the whole experience was as stress-free as it could be and we ended up with a very pampered pooch that smelled like a summer breeze (or whatever the smell it was!! :-)). Thank you very much for all your efforts - it looks like we now have a new dog!!”

“Amazing groomers! I wouldn’t take my dog anywhere else! Ollie has being going to Jen for nearly 2 years now and he absolutely loves it! He always comes out looking super smart and happy! Jen is so friendly and always goes above and beyond for her customers! Highly recommended xx”

“A fantastic service provided with dedication to ensuring my dogs, one of which is a puppy, were calm and reassured. There are stairs to the groomers which made me nervous as my puppy is a big bundle of fun but the groomer helped me without request. Top class service, would highly recommend!”

Around the salon

Groucho’s Grotto

In November 2024 the Groucho’s Elves set up the Grotto, and dogs popped down for a festive photo, with donations going to Ryedale Rescue.

The last two autumns brought a giveaway too: owners sent in their favourite autumn photo of their dog, and the winner got a free groom or teeth clean.
