I brought my dog, Louie, in today for a full groom. He isn't just my dog, he is my love and my…read morechild. I was nervous about dropping, Louie, off ANYwhere. His prior groomer, was mobile and would come to our house, so I could be right there with him. He's a registered Service Animal, and comes everywhere with me - we both have a bit of separation anxiety.
The moment I walked into the facility, I was put to ease. There were two dogs (from the same household), that had already been groomed, in one corner, and they were COMPLETELY content and happy. I then found out this was their first time there. To me, that shows a lot.
I had been putting, Lou's, groom off, bc I was in search of the perfect place. I didn't want him to be traumatized. Like I said, we rarely are apart. Since I had put it off, he was overgrown and parts of his fur were matted. I gave them "permission", or better yet, put my full trust into them, to do what would be most comfortable for Louie, so if they needed to shave him, i said that would be fine- just to use their best judgement.
When I got there (only 2.5 hours later!), I was amazed at how beautiful he looked. He smells wonderful, they brushed his teeth, cut his nails, expelled his anal glands, cut him and gave him a Thorough bath. They also dried him. They had to shave some of his body, but left his face and tail. Have I mentioned he looks FANTASTIC?
I'm so pleased and recommend, Doggie Washerette, to any and all my family, friends and loved ones. I will, most certainly, be back to bring my pooch for all of his grooming needs.
Thanks again to the lovely staff (especially the owner, Ethel, who made my Lou, feel so at ease) at, Doggie Washerette - Louie looks PERFECT! Have a wonderful weekend. Also, thanks for squeezing him in ASAP!
Lots of Love, Jen & Louie
*** the grooming fares are definitely fair market value, and worth EVERY penny. I tipped well OVER the standard 20%, because they exceeded my expectations.
