Poochi Grooming is a boutique, appointment-only dog grooming service in Melbourne run by Chi Chi, who brings formal training in dog behaviour, training and companion animal services together with practical experience from volunteering in shelters and hospitals. The business emphasizes a welfare-first, low-stress approach: grooming is done one dog at a time to minimise anxiety and ensure personalised attention, with an emphasis on comfort and safety throughout the visit. Services span routine care (baths and tidy-ups) through full grooms, puppy grooming, de-shedding and breed-specific cuts, plus nail trims, ear cleaning and specialised coat treatments tailored to each dog’s needs. Poochi Grooming also takes an ethical stance on animal welfare — actively supporting adoption, rejecting puppy-mill practices and advocating responsible ownership. The owner’s background in canine behaviour informs how each dog is handled, aiming to make grooming a calm, positive experience, and the business highlights a commitment to inclusivity and community recognition by noting queer ownership and acknowledgement of Indigenous custodianship.
