The grooming menu, W MacKenzie Rd

Five kinds of grooming, one room with no crates.

Every visit at Yuppy Puppy is by appointment, in a bright room in DeLand where dogs wait loose instead of caged. Below is what we do, from a full groom to a quick nail trim, and how each one fits a coat that needs regular care.

Service 01

Full groom

Bath, blow-out, haircut and tidy, scissored to your dog's breed and your routine.

Each one starts with a hands-on coat check, because the cut depends on what’s underneath the top layer. Then comes the bath, a full blow-out, the haircut and a tidy of the feet, face and ears. Tell us what you want your dog to look like and how the last groom went.

Owners here keep their doodles on a six-week rotation of full grooms, with bath visits in between, and say the coats and skin have never been better.

Service 02

Bath visits

A bath, dry and brush-out between full grooms, so the coat never gets away from you.

A bath visit is shampoo, a thorough dry and a brush-out, without the full haircut. It keeps a thick coat from felting in the weeks between scissors, and it keeps skin and smell where they should be. It’s the in-between step that makes a six-week rotation work.

Pricing and booking

How pricing works.

We don’t publish a price list, because a mini doodle with a tidy coat and a Labrador shedding in July are different jobs. The price depends on your dog’s breed, size and coat condition. Call (386) 951-4087, tell us about your dog, and you’ll get a price before you book.

Appointments only, Monday to Friday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We’re at 2761 W MacKenzie Rd, DeLand, FL, and dogs come in from Deltona and across Volusia County.

Nervous dogs and rescues

A dog that was turned away somewhere else, or one that’s never been groomed at all, can still book. We introduce things slowly, give breaks when a dog needs them, and call you the moment your dog is ready for pick-up.

Questions owners ask

Booking, crates, nerves and cost.

Yes. Yuppy Puppy works by appointment only. Call (386) 951-4087 to book a time Monday to Friday 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM or Saturday 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

No. The salon runs without crates. Clients describe the room as more like a living room than a grooming shop, and dogs wait and rest loose in it.

Often, yes. The team works slowly with anxious and rescue dogs, earning trust a step at a time, and will call you when your dog is done.

Many doodle owners here keep a six-week full groom rotation with a bath visit in between, which keeps the coat clear of mats and the skin healthy.

Prices depend on your dog's breed, size and coat condition, so call (386) 951-4087 and the salon will give you a price for your dog.
