About Hairy Hounds Playground

Hairy Hounds Playground is a dog care centre in Williamstown North, where grooming sits alongside daycare, walking, training and sleepover services under one roof. The grooming side runs two core options: a Wash and Tidy covering bath, blow dry, brush out and a tidy of the face, paws and hygiene area, and a Full Clip that adds a full body clip, nail trim and ear clean. Pricing is set by coat type and size, so short-haired and long-haired dogs from small through to giant breeds each have their own bracket.

The setting is an open indoor and outdoor environment built around play rather than a stand-alone salon, with the option to pair a groom with a day in the playground. Dogs that find things overwhelming are given quieter space and rest, and staff watch closely for early signs of heat stress in warmer months, with extra care for brachycephalic, senior and thick-coated dogs. Add-ons such as a flea rinse and de-shedding can be booked alongside either package.

Grooming runs by appointment, with registration online and a booking made by phone or email.
