dog supplies
try calling and asking
Dog Diapers
grooming also means, not only washing, but trimming the hair and nails to. anyone can bathe their dog.

Hey you are not going to get much business if you are going to rely on other people to do even the basic work for you.

ehh…if your just doing that probly 7$ for smaller breeds and 10$ for larger breeds.

It’s probably about 30-40 dollars to wash, cut, and trim nails.
As for the supplies, you wouldn’t want to get those cheap nic nacs or the poor quality would harm the dog and you might lose money or get sued. I’m not sure about the costs for supplies. Try going to
petco.com
and add all the items you need into the cart.

Call and Ask. Or do it your self : )

Since you’re only offering bather / brusher services. Your prices are going to be pretty low. You also need a good “Greyhound comb” and some quality shampoo. Figure about $100 to get started. You’re also missing a very important piece of equipment. The Power blow dryer. That’s a costly piece of equipment and its going to save you tons of time and labor. Please check out Ryan’s Pets online and price a small dryer. Those hand held dryers will not work and people dryers are too hot. Force dryers blow warm air, not hot air and they literally blow the loose hair right off the dog. Along with water and dirt.
You can get more if you offer to clean ear, brush teeth and clip nails. But you need to know how to do all this correctly. Why not apply for a part time job with a grooming business. Learn the right way to bath and brush dogs and then strike off on your own.
Basic price for dogs at my place of work is
Lab, $30
German shepherd, $35 to $40
Yorkie, $16
Lasha, $25
Collie, $35
St Bernard, $50
Toy Fox Terrier, $12
And so on
