Pack & Pride - Day Care, Training and Grooming

Pack & Pride is a combined pet day care, training and grooming business at Blacksoil, on the western edge of Ipswich, that describes itself as a new breed of care built around keeping dogs happy. Grooming sits alongside daycare, boarding and training, so a wash or clip can be paired with a full day of play, and the team frames its grooming around making the experience a positive one rather than something a dog has to endure.

The grooming menu runs from quick express hydrobaths through to full clips and breed-specific style cuts, with every option priced by pet size from small to extra large. A typical visit can include a hydrobath with shampoo and conditioner, blow dry, brush out, nail trim and ear clean, finished with cologne and a bow, tie or bandana. Add-ons such as nail clipping, nail grinding and filing, ear cleaning and coat colouring round out the list. Proof of vaccination is required for all services, which suits owners who want their dog mixing with a vaccinated pack.

With day care, training and boarding under the same roof, it reads as a fit for owners who want one trusted place for grooming and the rest of their dog's week.
