Doodles are the most high-maintenance coats in the pet grooming world — and the fastest-growing breed segment in Bay County and across the US. Their wavy-to-curly Poodle-mix coats mat aggressively, grow continuously, and require professional grooming every 6–10 weeks without exception. Animal Friends Pet Care grooms more doodles than any other breed type in our facility, and our groomers know every doodle coat variation from the loose Labradoodle wave to the tight Bernedoodle curl.
Doodle Breeds We Groom
Popular Doodle Cut Styles We Offer
- Teddy bear cut — rounded face, even body length. The most requested doodle style.
- Puppy cut — uniform short length all over. Easy maintenance, great for summer.
- Kennel cut — shorter, practical. Low-maintenance between full grooms.
- Custom length — you specify the body length and face style you want and we execute it.
- De-shed/de-mat before groom — we remove matting first when present, then groom.
The Doodle Matting Problem in Bay County
Florida humidity is the enemy of doodle coats. Moisture causes curly and wavy coats to mat faster than in drier climates. Doodle owners in Bay County need professional grooming on a strict schedule — usually every 6–8 weeks — or matting develops at the armpits, behind the ears, collar area, and belly. Once matted severely, the only humane option is a shave-down. Regular grooming prevents this entirely. Walk-in available — don't let the schedule slip.
