    The shave down to his face. Not a horrible cut if this is what you asked for, but I did not ask for this.

    I asked for a rounded face trim for my labradoodle, but they gave him a poodle-style cut instead. They blamed the change on a single mat on his face--unacceptable. On top of that, the pickup delays were real. It seems he was likely kept in a cage all day, possibly only let out once during seven hours. I'm truly disappointed and won't be returning. Posting this not to bash the business, although I'm not saying this helps. Posting for awareness, warn another owner, and hopefully change. The text I sent them after a hair cut that I absolutely hate. I'm extremely dissatisfied with the grooming service. His facial hair was cut far too short--this will take months to grow back. He returned home very thirsty, and *urinated on himself and his leash (our brand new leash came home smelling like pee) in the facility. Makes me question whether he had been properly taken care of. Frankly, he didn't smell freshly washed everywhere. The groomer should communicate directly with the parents. I don't know what the other woman described, but this grooming is nothing like what I told. His face wasn't even that matted--I told the groomer that only if it couldn't be brushed out, shaving (*of the mat, not the whole face) would be acceptable. I didn't say anything yesterday because I didn't want to get into a disagreement, but I do want to express how disappointed I am now. Also, I specifically requested no anal gland expression. You included that in your recap anyway, then mentioned it was just a habit to say it. As a former groomer, I know large dogs usually handle that naturally, and overdoing it can lead to dependency. So that shouldn't have been part of the service or apart of your speech since you say you groom larger dog breeds. You had my dog from 10 AM, (*4:40 pick up, the wash may have started at 1PM) and based on what I've read in reviews and what I experienced, the bath didn't start until much later. When I called, I was told it took longer due to fleas, but then you said he only had about 10. That doesn't justify a big delay. Looking back, I should've trusted my gut and the reviews I read the night before. I was uneasy when I realized no one is allowed inside the not kept clean facility. You don't have to live with this haircut for the next few months. I do. And I'm heartbroken to see my dog looking butchered. I tipped $20 at pickup out of relief to have him back, but honestly, I should've left much less.

    Muncey is one Happy Newfiepoo. Thanks Flower and Tara for the excellent cut and exceptional customer service.

    Muncy is one happy Newfiepoo. Flower met us at the exact time at 9:15 am. Tara notified us at the exact time that Muncy was ready for pick up. We appreciate there timeliness and professionalism. We asked for the Teddy Bear Cut and Muncy and Family loved his fresh cut.

    Listen y'all, Tara HAS to have some SERIOUS patience skills. My dog gets SOOO upset whenever you go near her face/paws, not in a way where she'll bite you, but def. nibbles and moves around A LOT. We've been going to Fur Paws Grooming for almost a year now and every time we drop her off, we know our doggo (Zelda) will be in good hands. She is super good with dogs and you can tell she loves them. My doggo is a rescue so she's INSANELY skid-dish around new ppl. She knows Tara now, does it mean she likes getting groomed? Of course not she hates getting groomed even when we do it, but at least she knows she'll be in good hands. The more nervous your dog is the more time it will take so please keep that in mind!! She makes sure your dog isn't overwhelmed, which we always appreciate. We love Tara and all the hard work she does for the pups in Hawthorne. THANK YOU FUR PAWS GROOMING

    Had another great grooming day for our fur baby Katana. We have been going to Fur Paws for almost two years now with our frenchie baby, and we have been so happy with the service and care Fur Paws has given to our little wiggle butt. The owner Tara and her staff are so nice and professional, they always keeps me updated about how it's going and lets me know the staff loves all the kisses that Katana gives them and that she is a funny wiggle butt. I know that my doggie is in good hands and Katana comes out smelling and looking so nice and she is so happy to have her little spa day. Thank you Tara and Fur Paws staff for the great care you have given to us and our precious fur baby.

    My sweet girl.

    Always does a great job. I feel very comfortable leaving my baby there knowing she's well taken care of and will look so good when she's done.

    I've had Prime for a year now and I've groomed him myself a couple of times but there was always something off when I do it. SO! I decided to bring him to professionals and see what he's really supposed to look like after a bit of pampering. This place came highly recommended by a few of my pet parent neighbors, so I thought I'd give them a try. APPOINTMENTS ONLY, so don't bother trying to walk-in. I finally gave them a call and the next available they had was not for another 8 days. (I took that as a good sign - they are popular!) I dropped Prime off for a 9am appointment. Since this is my first time, I didn't really know how this worked. Tara, who was very friendly off the bat, asked how short I want his cut to be. I just asked her to make him look cute. "Okay, it'll be a few hours, should be done no later than 1pm." They were true to their word: I got that phone call close to 1pm. VERDICT: Prime looks great, and even more important, he looks comfortable. I like that they were careful with his facial hair, and I know that for fact because they didn't cut any of his whiskers. (It must have been a pain trying to get around it as that puppy tends to move a lot. That's always a plus.) They also trimmed his nails (which is MY biggest issue) and he smells so dang nice! I fully understand why they come highly recommended. I am beyond satisfied and definitely happy with the work they've done. We will come back once Prime needs another round of grooming.

    Thank you Fur Paws for always making us pretty and soft!  Love Charly and Sally

    Fur Paws does EXCELLENT grooming! I've been going there for 10+ years and all of my dogs leave soft and shiny. The ladies are all very friendly. I'm so happy to have this gem near me. Thank you Fur Paws! Thank you Tara for always being sweet and caring!

    Amazing! The only grooming spot that was able to do my baby Rosie! Thank you so much we'll be back

    I took my 11 month old tripod Frenchie, Moonie here for her first grooming session. She was nervous getting there but Tara was so kind and gentle with her. I actually got my appointment wrong and went a day early! They were so kind and took Moonie anyway. Moonie was finished with her session within an hour and looked and smelled great. She was very calm and relaxed when I picked her up and I knew she was in good hands. I'm so happy to have found an affordable grooming place I can trust with my pup!

    Before

    Absolutely happy with Mr. Jingles transformation. First time he goes to get groomed and I'm was nervous about leaving him but seeing how Tara was with him made me feel better and I appreciated the fact that she gave me a call to let me know how he was doing, you can tell she loves and takes pride in what she does. 100% recommend for everyone to bring their fur baby here.

    An example of what I reviewed that's similar to his hair and good review.

    See all

    The search for the perfect groomer is finally over!…read more I could never find a place in the area that I was 100% satisfied with, so I used to drive all the way to K-Town in L.A. to get my dog groomed. She's a Bichon Frise, and not every grooming salon has experience with the breed. Unfortunately, that often resulted in some very disappointing haircuts. Bella Banana popped up on my Instagram feed, and I decided to give them a try. They had great reviews, but as we all know, good reviews don't always guarantee a good experience. I waited until our second visit before writing this review because I wanted to be sure -- and I can confidently say I absolutely love Bella Banana! First of all, the salon has a fully open concept with large windows where you can actually see the dogs being groomed. This is very important to me. At many other places, they take my Bichon to the back, and I have no idea what's happening -- which always made me uncomfortable. Bella Banana's transparent, open space gives me so much peace of mind and builds real trust. Today I picked up my dog after her grooming, and once again, it was a perfectly satisfying cut. The staff is incredibly friendly, and you can genuinely tell they love animals and handle them with sincere care and gentleness. Bella Banana is truly a gem, and I feel so lucky to have found them!

First time around I sent my dog and my sister-in-laws dog with a friend. He did us the favor of dropping them off and picking them up. He paid cash upon pick up and it was recorded on camera (thank God) because the lady up front was harassing us the following week for payment THAT WAS ALREADY MADE. We had to have the owner review the cameras. Of course, he can see clearly see where the cash was handed to the receptionist so he had us come back for a complimentary bath. This is why we had a false sense of trust in them again and booked a third shower. Now this is where our second bad encounter comes in. It was a warm day and the lady at the front desk kept our Frenchie in the hot back area to the point that our dog had a heat stroke she didn't survive. This b**ch is out here killing animals out of ambition. She literally confessed to seeing warning signs of our dog's distress, but continued with the service to not return the money we paid up front! Oh and IT DOESNT END THERE! She must be so unorganized that now she's harassing for payment that was made AGAIN. Wtf is wrong with these people? I paid, my dog died, and they're still harassing us!!! Do not trust them with your pets! I will be writing this same message to PETA. This business is not run ethically and I'm sure it's not run legally.
