Grooming for Curl Curl's pets
Curl Curl might be the most dog-dense suburb on the beaches, and John Fisher Park is why: the off-leash stretch by the lagoon is a daily festival of tennis balls, zoomies, and joyful chaos.
All of which ends up on our table. Sand-packed coats, lagoon-water tangles, grass seeds in unmentionable places: Curl Curl dogs live hard and groom often. We keep them on cycles that match the lifestyle, and we never lecture anyone about the sand. It's a badge of honour.

North–South Curl Curl walk

Curl Curl Lagoon
shallow, splashy, and responsible for many of our best before-and-afters
Parking at the salon
Street parking is available around our Pittwater Rd salon. Better yet: park near the beach, walk your dog before drop-off so they arrive calm and happy, then finish the walk together after pick-up. The fresh groom deserves a lap of honour.

Curl Curl questions
Around nine minutes by car via Harbord Rd to 123 Pittwater Rd, Manly. Plenty of clients pair drop-off with a Manly errand run.
It's practically a membership requirement. Sand accelerates matting though, so park-daily dogs do best on a 4–6 week grooming cycle with brushing in between.
Street parking is available on and around Pittwater Rd near the salon. Our favourite trick: park near the beach instead, walk your dog before drop-off so they arrive relaxed, then finish the walk together after pick-up to show off the fresh groom.
