FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Pricing depends on your dog's size, breed, coat condition, and the service you choose, so a chihuahua bath and a matted doodle full groom are very different appointments. Call us at (406) 413-1620 with your dog's breed and what you need, and we'll give you a price before you book. Our reviews regularly mention that we're an affordable option in Billings.
Call or text us at (406) 413-1620, or send a request through the quote form on this site and we'll get back to you. Let us know your dog's breed, size, what service you want, and anything we should know about temperament, and we'll find a time that works.
Our salon is at 706 Central Ave in Billings, and we groom dogs from all over the area, including Lockwood, Laurel, Shepherd, Huntley, Worden, and Park City. If you're anywhere in the Billings area and willing to make the drive, we're happy to take care of your pup.
Yes, we're open seven days a week. Weekday hours are 9am to 5pm, Saturdays 10am to 4pm, and Sundays 11am to 3pm. Weekend slots fill up fastest, so book ahead if Saturday or Sunday is your only option.
Yes, and it's honestly what we're known for. Our customers' reviews talk about rescue dogs who were terrified of everything leaving calm and groomed, because we take extra time, give breaks, and never force a frightened dog through a groom. Tell us about your dog's history when you book and we'll plan the visit around their comfort.
A full groom covers a warm bath with coat-matched shampoo, blow-dry, full brush-out, a haircut styled to your dog's breed, a nail trim finished with a Dremel, ear cleaning, and a sanitary trim. Everything your dog needs in one appointment.
Most dogs do well every four to eight weeks. Curly and long coats like poodles and doodles need grooming more often to prevent matting, short coats can go longer, and heavy shedders benefit from de-shedding treatments during Montana's spring and fall coat changes. We'll recommend a schedule for your specific dog at your first visit.
Yes, ear cleaning is part of our full grooms and we check ears at every visit. One Billings customer brought in a poodle whose ears had developed a yeast problem, and we got them cleaned out so he could go home comfortable. If we spot anything that looks like it needs a vet, we'll tell you honestly.
Both. We trim with clippers and finish with a Dremel grinder, which rounds and smooths the nail so there are no sharp edges. The Dremel also lets us work in small, careful passes, which is safer and often less stressful for dogs who dislike the squeeze of clippers.
A standalone nail trim is usually under 30 minutes, a bath and brush around one to two hours, and a full groom one to three hours depending on size, coat, and temperament. We'd rather take the time to do it right and keep your dog calm than rush, and we'll give you a time estimate at drop-off.
Yes. We choose shampoos based on your dog's coat and skin, and we're used to working with allergy-prone dogs. One of our regulars is a golden with seasonal allergies and skin struggles, and we work through the owner's concerns at every visit. Tell us what your vet has said and we'll groom accordingly.
We keep payment simple and accept the common methods most customers expect. If you have a specific question about how you'd like to pay, just ask when you book at (406) 413-1620 and we'll confirm before your appointment.

Serving Lockwood
Lockwood sits just east of Billings across the Yellowstone River, and it's one of the fastest-growing communities in the county, with new homes filling in around the established neighborhoods near the schools. It still keeps a more rural, spread-out feel than Billings proper: bigger lots, more outdoor dogs, and plenty of pups that spend their days in the yard rather than on the couch. That lifestyle is great for dogs and hard on coats. Burrs, dust, river mud, and undercoat build up fast on Lockwood dogs, and the I-90 interchange puts our Central Avenue salon about ten minutes from most Lockwood driveways.

Why Lockwood customers need this work
Outdoor-living Lockwood dogs tend to come to us needing more than a quick rinse. Heavy brush-outs, de-shedding treatments for double-coated yard dogs, and dematting work are everyday requests from this side of the river. Nail care matters here too, since dogs that run on grass and dirt don't wear their nails down the way pavement dogs do, so regular trims with a smooth Dremel finish keep Lockwood pups comfortable. And for families adopting rescues, our patient, no-force approach to anxious dogs makes the first grooming experiences calm ones.

Why Choose The Puppy Parlor for Pet grooming in Lockwood
Lockwood dog owners are just a quick hop across the Yellowstone River from The Puppy Parlor's salon on Central Avenue in Billings. We give Lockwood pups the full range of care: complete grooms, breed-specific haircuts, baths, de-shedding treatments, and gentle Dremel nail trims, all from a groomer rated 5.0 stars on Google. Open seven days a week, so the drive over fits your schedule, not the other way around.
Lockwood customers choose us because we treat every project like it's our own — no upselling, no surprises, just straightforward work that gets the job done right.
Whether you live in Lockwood or just need a reliable team nearby, we're a short drive from Billings and happy to walk you through every recommendation before any work begins.
From most of Lockwood, our salon is roughly a ten-minute drive, closer than many of the grooming options on the far side of Billings. That short hop gets you a 5.0-star groomer who knows fur types and breed standards, takes genuine time with nervous dogs, and remembers your dog from visit to visit. We're also open Saturdays and Sundays, which matters for Lockwood's working families. For the cost of crossing the river, your dog gets small-shop care instead of an assembly-line groom.
