Included
01Recommended blade lengths per body section — #10 on the belly, 1/2" guard on the body, hand-scissor face
02Problem areas flagged: matting under collars, sanitary trim sensitivity, ear plucking pain tolerance
03Time estimate so you stop under-quoting Goldendoodles and bleeding margin
04Owner questions to ask BEFORE the leash comes off (vaccination, prior groom history, behavior triggers)
06Tailored to the breed-style combo: a Goldendoodle teddy bear is not a Goldendoodle puppy cut
What it does
You quoted the Goldendoodle teddy bear at $75 over Instagram DM. Three hours and one bath later, you're working for $19 an hour and the owner wants to know why their dog 'doesn't look like the photo.' This is a dog grooming consultation sheet generator for independent groomers and small salon owners who book by phone or DM and need to set expectations before the leash comes off.
Feed it the breed + the requested style (Goldendoodle teddy bear cut, Schnauzer breed-standard, Bichon scissor finish, doodle puppy cut, Shih Tzu top knot) and the skill produces a one-page consultation sheet with recommended blade lengths per body section (e.g., #10 on the belly, 1/2 inch guard on the body, hand-scissor the face), problem areas to watch (matting under collars, sanitary trim sensitivity, ear-plucking pain tolerance for poodle-mixes), a realistic time estimate, the owner questions you should ask before starting, and upcharge justifications you can read straight off the page when the de-matting bill comes due.
Bundled reference: a grooming blade-length atlas mapped by breed and coat type, plus standardized upcharge talking points so the same conversation lands the same way every time. Print one per appointment and hand it to your assistant — or use it as your phone-quote script.
Frequently asked
How do I price and explain a Goldendoodle teddy bear cut to a new client?
Generate the consult sheet for 'Goldendoodle, teddy bear cut.' You get a realistic time estimate (most groomers under-quote doodles by 45+ minutes), the de-matting upcharge talking points, and the questions to ask the owner (matted between baths? sensitive feet? prior bad groom?). The price quote follows from the time + the upcharges you've flagged.
Are the blade-length recommendations actually correct for the breed and coat?
Yes — the bundled blade-length atlas maps blades and guard combs to coat type and breed standard. For Schnauzers you get the standard #10 head and ears + #7F body. For Goldendoodles you get a 1/2 inch guard plus hand-scissor finish. For Shih Tzus you get the top knot blade and the proper sanitary trim length.
Will it actually help me upsell de-matting and sanitary trims, or just list them?
Each upcharge comes with a scripted talking point — what to say to the owner, what photo to take before you start, what to point at on the dog. Stops you from doing the work and then awkwardly explaining the bill at pickup.
Does it work for cat grooming or only dogs?
Dogs only — the bundled blade atlas, time estimates, and breed-standard data are dog-grooming specific. Cat grooming has its own pain points (sedation, lion cuts, hairball-coat handling) that need a different reference.
Can I customize the sheet with my salon name and pricing?
Yes. The output is an editable one-pager. Drop in your business name, your standard rates, and your house policies (cancellation, late pickup, deposit) — the bundled template is structured so the breed-specific recommendations stay clean and your branding sits at the top and footer.
