How it works
The tub fills with warm tap water carrying billions of tiny bubbles, each smaller than a hair. They work through the coat and down to the skin, lifting out the dirt, oil, dander, yeast, and pollen that a regular bath leaves behind.
There’s no scrubbing and no harsh shampoo. Most dogs settle right in.
Good for dogs who
- itch, scratch, or lick at their skin
- have allergies or sensitive skin
- smell like a dog again a few days after a bath
- shed heavily
- come home from the river or the field muddy
- are older or nervous, and don’t like being scrubbed
A Thera-Clean bath is a bath, not a medical treatment. If your dog has a skin condition, we’re glad to work alongside your vet.
A visit to the Woof Spa
How it goes
- 01
Book and tell us about your dog
Call or text 251-928-5719, or book in the Belle Shain app. Tell us the breed, age, and weight, and anything we should know, like skin trouble, nerves, or an old injury. It helps us plan the visit and give you a fair price.
- 02
Check-in and coat check
We look over the skin, coat, nails, and ears, and agree on the plan with you at drop-off. If we find heavy matting or fleas, we call you before we go further.
- 03
The bath
A regular bath or a Thera-Clean® microbubble bath, chosen for your dog’s skin and coat.
- 04
Dry, brush, and finish
Towel and blow-dry, a thorough brush-out, then the haircut, trim, nails, and ears your package includes. We call when they’re ready to go home.

Short-haired breeds
Bath & Tidy
$35–$75, by weight
Pointers, hounds, Boxers, and other smooth coats.
Bath, dry, brush-out, nail trim, and ear cleaning.
Double-coated breeds
The De-Shed
$60–$140, by weight
Labs, Goldens, shepherds, huskies, and Corgis.
Everything in the Bath & Tidy, plus a thorough brush-out of the loose undercoat, a conditioning rinse, and a high-velocity dry. A good match for a Thera-Clean bath in shedding season.
Long and drop-coated breeds
The Full Groom
$60–$140, by weight
Spaniels, setters, Shih Tzus, and Yorkies.
Everything in the Bath & Tidy, plus a haircut or trim styled for your dog, and a sanitary and paw-pad trim.
Poodles
The Poodle Groom
$85–$180, by size and clip
Toy, Miniature, and Standard Poodles.
A full bath, a careful brush-out, and a Poodle clip styled the way you like it, from a simple trim to a specialty clip.
Poodle mixes
The Oodle Groom
$120, any size
Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, Bernedoodles, and Cockapoos.
Curly coats mat easily and vary a lot from dog to dog, so they have their own package: a full bath, a careful brush-out, and a haircut styled the way you like it. If a coat is matted, dematting is $15.
Wire-coated breeds
The Hand Strip
$75, any size
Spinoni, German Wirehaired Pointers, Griffons, and Wirehaired Vizslas.
A full bath and brush-out, with the dead outer coat stripped out by hand so a wire coat keeps its natural texture and color.
Any coat
Add Thera-Clean® Skin Therapy
Add to any package $40–$80, by weight
Every package above.
Swap the regular bath in any package for a Thera-Clean microbubble bath. It’s the best choice for itchy, allergic, or smelly dogs.
