I dont want to put you off but ellie had a very bad experience at the groomers they choked her (they tied her up too tight whilst bathing her) and she ended up in the animal hospital for a week, but im sure it wont happen to murphy but ask if you can stay and ask what experience they have had with large breeds.

we do ours in the back garden with a hose, only in warm weather tho, luckily we have a friend who owns a grooming salon so we are able to use her place when it's cold, it is a 3 man job to get them in the bath tho Shocked

really the only grooming/trimming you need to do are cut the nails nice and short, and tidy up the loose hair around the feet and pads, other than that ready to go Very Happy
