When you bring your dog to Hippie Hounds, you never need to worry. Co-owned by three dog groomers with 21 years of professional experience, Hippie Hounds resets the standard in dog grooming and provides customized, consistently top-notch services that ALWAYS put your dog first.

We use the most gentle, all-natural, and plant-based products in our salon. Our services are tailored to support your dog’s overall health.

Our salon is free of any hazardous dog grooming apparatuses or processes. We treat all dogs with respect and love them as if they were our own.

We are well-equipped and experienced in handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, temperaments, coat types/conditions, and abilities.

A Holistic Approach to Dog Grooming

We take a different approach to grooming, one where your dog will never be left alone or pushed out of their comfort zone. Our bathing and grooming teams work together in rotational stages, pre-set to allow your dog time to rest, as standing for long periods can be taxing on a dog’s body.

We lean on our decades of experience, having groomed thousands of dogs of all types and temperaments, to soothe anxieties and adapt our approach based on your dog’s response. Positive reinforcement with our highly popular homemade treats (given with your permission, of course!) helps us out too!

Explore our variety of by-appointment dog grooming services personalized for your dog’s comfort in Lynnwood, WA, including Full-Service Groom; Partial Groom; Bath & Brush; Bath, Brush & De-Shed; Feather Trim; Puppy Orientation; and Special Needs (anxiety, agreession, injuries, and more).

More About Our Grooming Services

Non-De-Matting Policy

We have a strict policy against de-matting. At our groomer’s discretion, we can potentially save certain areas of your dog’s coat that are not too close to the skin or painful for them. Our three-step conditioning bath process works wonders in helping to loosen tight coats and packed undercoats. If it is deemed that your dog is too matted, we will let you know that a full shave-down is necessary. We do not shave dogs down for ANY reason other than the coat’s condition at check-in, and we will keep you fully informed throughout the process — no surprise shave-downs here!

 

All-Inclusive Pricing & Pampering

We use an all-inclusive pricing model to ensure that your dog receives the services they need to support their health and wellness, using premium, plant-based products without limitations. When you make an appointment, we’ll provide you with a customized pricing estimate based on your dog’s approximate groom time.

Many competing grooming salons will recommend and charge clients for specialty add-ons. Understandably, owners who are trying to keep the grooming costs down will decline the add-ons, which often leads to dogs not receiving what they need. We don’t believe in this model and built Hippie Hounds to make premium, all-inclusive care with unlimited personalizations a reality and an essential healthcare practice for your dog.

 

Your Dog Is in Excellent Hands

Our commitment to your dog’s holistic health is woven into every decision we make — from the shampoos and conditioners we use to our air filtration system. Having seen hazardous industry practices firsthand, we take a firm stance against using any apparatus (e.g., belly bands, Groomer’s Helper) or following any practice that can put your dog at risk. Instead, we lean on our expertise to provide every dog in our care with the most gentle solutions dedicated to their comfort.

No dog is too big, temperamental, matted, etc. We love every dog the same while treating them as the individuals they are. Believe us when we say we’ve seen it all, and we promise that your dog is in excellent hands at Hippie Hounds — no exceptions.

 

Breed-Based & Behavior-Based Grooming

Just as all dogs are different, so are all dog grooming processes at Hippie Hounds. Every decision we make is a corrective response to how your dog is handling the service. If a dog is anxious in our care, we will never force them to withstand haircuts out of their comfort zone. Sometimes, we must take a different approach than previously discussed or desired by the owner if the dog is matted, sensitive, scared, or bites at the tools. We communicate with our clients about their dog’s grooming experience and share any positive training tips to practice at home to aid in desensitization toward grooming.

Make an Appointment

Give us a call to schedule an appointment for your dog. Things we’ll need to know: your dog’s breed or the breed she most closely resembles, age, and weight; if your dog is spayed or neutered; and if your dog has ever been professionally groomed in any grooming salon.

There's nothing quite like watching a gorgeous coat come to life, especially when the dog rocking it is as charming as Griffey here. We had the best time with him, and honestly? We think he had a pretty good time too. 😌🩵

Some dogs need a little extra love—and that's exactly what we're here for. 🩵

At Hippie Hounds, we offer special needs grooming for dogs of every temperament, age, and condition. No dog is ever turned away.

Instead of relying on extra restraints, we bring in extra hands. A second team member assists the groomer, so your dog feels held, encouraged, and comfortable—never strapped down.

Because comfort builds trust, and trust changes everything. 😌🐾

Watch how we work through every millimeter of a coat like Griffey’s here, using one of the most important techniques for thick, long-haired dogs: line brushing.

So what is it? Line brushing means working through the coat in small sections, one horizontal "line" at a time. We part the hair, brush from the skin outward, then move up bit by bit until the whole coat is done.

Why do we do it this way? Because matting starts close to the skin—right where a quick surface brush misses. Working section by section makes sure every layer gets attention, not just the top.

And why does it matter? For dogs like Griffey, tangles and mats aren't just cosmetic. They pull at the skin, trap moisture, and can cause real discomfort. Line brushing keeps his coat healthy, comfortable, and looking his best.

It takes a little extra time and a lot of patience—but Griffey and all of our long-haired four-legged friends are worth every second. 🩵
