SKIN & COAT WELLNESS
Where Grooming Begins With the Skin.
At Goose & Co, beautiful coats are never the starting point — healthy skin is.
We believe skin health is the foundation of comfort, confidence, and long-term coat integrity. That’s why every appointment begins with a thoughtful skin and coat evaluation before we ever reach for a bottle.
Because dogs deserve better than one-size-fits-all grooming
Why This Matters
We see it all the time — dogs dealing with:
Seasonal allergies
Dry or flaky skin
Chronic itching
Excess shedding
Dull or brittle coats
Oil imbalance
Sensitive or reactive skin
Sometimes the signs are obvious.
Sometimes they’re subtle.
Either way, your dog’s skin is communicating something — and we pay attention.
Our Approach
Every dog is evaluated at check-in.
We look at:
Coat texture
Skin condition
Areas of irritation
Sensitivities or known allergies
Lifestyle (hiking, swimming, urban exposure)
Grooming history
From there, we select and tailor products accordingly.
We proudly use professional IV San Bernard formulas — internationally respected for their skin-supportive, coat-restorative philosophy. Products are thoughtfully selected and, when appropriate, hand-mixed and diluted specifically for your dog’s needs.
No generic baths. No rushing through. Just intentional, customized care.
Personal to Us
This focus is deeply personal.
Goose, the heart behind Goose & Co, has struggled with allergies since she was a puppy. At just a few months old, she experienced a severe full-body skin reaction with raised welts overnight. It was terrifying.
Since then, we’ve navigated food sensitivities, environmental triggers, and flare-ups that show up directly on her skin and coat.
That experience shaped everything.
It’s why we care so much about ingredient quality.
It’s why we notice subtle changes.
It’s why we take our time.
Because we understand how uncomfortable skin issues can be and how much they affect both dogs and their people.

At-Home Coat Care Matters
Skin wellness doesn’t end at the grooming table.
Brushing a dry coat can cause breakage and irritation. We recommend using a light conditioning spray to protect the coat and minimize friction, especially for long, curly, or double-coated breeds.
We’re always happy to demonstrate proper brushing techniques and recommend tools or products that support coat integrity between visits.
Because better skin health is a partnership.
Our Philosophy
We are not veterinarians, and we do not diagnose medical conditions. But we are deeply committed to understanding the skin and adjusting our grooming approach accordingly.
Education matters.
Ingredients matter.
Technique matters.
