Paula is great! I brought Addy here for the 2nd time and asked for her ears to be shortened and her feet to be trimmed close (she always gets dirty walking outside). She did exactly what I asked and Addy looks even better then I expected. Addy used to be nervous around strangers but loves Paula.
Nereyda was very sweet from the jump, it was our first time here and very apprehensive because we had a previous groomer for almost 8 years. Our maltiPoo puppy had only been groomed, a handful of times previously and was shaved completely down to the tail which really upset us at our previous groomers, we had not wanted the ears or the face or tail to be shaved back then so we made it very known at Happy Hound that we still wanted some type of fluff around the tail and face-- even though he is matted and was extra chaotic bc he hates his face touched and had not been groomed in months. She made sure to keep that promise and I am so very happy!! He still has his tail fluff and some on his face! (Previous groomers had him shaved down to a chihuahua/ rat tail) Both dogs look great and I definitely am so glad that we made a change and decided to come here. We will continue to come more frequently that way our maltipoo gets a little bit more shape going and we are excited to see how that looks. Honestly, very good in communication and the fact that she tried to keep her promise and made sure she did meant a lot !! I also love that it only took three hours, at my previous groomers, they would be there for about six hours so this was a nice change ! HIGHLY recommended for your fur babies.
Been a client for 7+ years of Jason and have always had a great result. He has groomed my senior cocker spaniel and now a new mini poodle puppy. My English Bulldog has also been in for a baths and deep deshedding service. Very friendly staff always do their best to accommodate my schedule. I use text to set up appointments. Dogs are treated the best and they are nice to humans too.
I got 2 senior pups and the people here do a great job with them. My male senior has some skin tags / issues and they always do a tremendous job paying extra attention to him. I love that its not an all day drop off for my 2 pups and prices are VERY reasonable. 2 thumbs up.
After my mom took her dog to another local groomer and they left her with a terrible cut, she needed to find a new groomer. I found Happy Hound on Yelp and sent her there. My mom was extremely pleased with Happy Hound. She said it was clean, the service was friendly and they left her poodle mix Chiquita with a nice cut. She was very happy with the overall experience and will be a repeat customer.
I called on a saturday just as a walk in (crazy i know) and the woman that answered the phone was able to squeeze in my little dog last minute. when i showed up she asked me my preferences and how i would like the face and i told her i have no clue but i trust her professional opinion and she just needs to look cute cus we have a party and gunna get a lot of pets and scratches! They were done quick with her and when i got there my dog was wearing the cutest bandana and they said they bathed, groomed, brushed her teeth, did her nails AND did her ears!! I was so surprised seeing it was only $85! They also took a little picture of her with a back drop! All the ladies were so nice and i would 100% recommend this place!
ABSOLUTE WORST EXPERIENCE!! THEY SHAVED OUR HUSKY/AUSTRALIAN SHEPARD WITHOUT OUR PERMISSION!! Our dog was booked in for a simple bath and brush and they took the liberty WITHOUT CONSULTING US of shaving her beautiful coat down to the skin!!!! As groomers they should know that you NEVER SHAVE A HUSKY for risk of sunburn and heatstroke. They have permanently ruined her beautiful coat as it will never grow back the same DO NOT TRUST THEM WITH YOUR PETS!!!
The Happy Hound staff did an excellent job making my pups look adorable. The service, care, professionalism, genuine care, and attention that Jason and the staff gave me and my two Chi-Poms was a great experience. I'm so grateful that my client's wife referred me to Happy Hound! I told them due to unexpected circumstances that I need to find a foster home for pups. Jason immediately gave me contacts to reach out to which was awesome and posted photos and flyers to social media and letting his walk-in customers know about needing to find a home for Charlie and Piper. He also offered to let me keep them at his daycare while I was moving and working during the week trying to get my life in order which was a HUGE help of kindness. Paola is a sweetheart and has been a huge lifesaver, taking them home with her at night until we find a home for Charlie and Piper. There are good and kind people in the world. I have nothing but gratitude for the Happy Hound staff. If I was able to keep my two pups, Happy Hound would be our fur-ever go-to for grooming. We thank you again, Jason and Paola! I will gladly recommend anyone to Happy Hound!
Very pleased with the services from Happy Hound. Not only did my baby girl look adorable but more important she didn't seem traumatized after we picked her up. We definitely just found our new local Groomer's.
This is without a doubt a great place My dog loves And soda why they do a great job I recommend them highly Thanks again for the great job

As always Paula did a great job grooming Jax! She's so good with him! He loves her so much! As well as the others who work there! He's very social and lovable and thrives on attention! I really want to shout out to not only the grooming team but also the owner... we had a situation I'm not going to get into, but because of the high level of professionalism that was shown in the handling of it, I'm even more impressed with this business-they truly appreciate and care about their clients! They set a high standard for integrity and character which is rare today! Thank you Happy Hound! read more

Omgoodness, we are SO happy with the service we received at Happy Hound! They were professional, nice, and took their time (which, to me, is very important as I don't like to feel flustered when dropping my pooch off somewhere new). The two people I met there both had great energies that the dogs all seemed to notice too Our dog's ears, no-no's, nails, teeth, tail, and all around fur looks FANTASTIC! Not to mention she smells GREAT!! Thank you guys so much! We will definitely be back!! I can see why you had to open another location !! read more

If I could give negative stars I would I took my dog to get the "full service bath" she's not the easiest when it comes to cutting her nails or brushing her teeth but she will let you do it. I decided to bring her here due to the good yelp review and a friend recommended it to me. When my boyfriend picked her up everything was fine they said she was so well behaved and that she would win the cutest dog award if they had one. Later that day at around 5 my boyfriend was petting her and he realized her eye was blood shot red. She hadn't been outside and no trama had been done to her she was in his sight the whole time after they grooming appointment Nothing was wrong with her before we dropped her off. THE NEGLECT SHOWN IS HORRIBLE. I FEEL SO BAD FOR MY DOG BECAUSE I TOOK HER THERE. AND THEY DID THAT TO HER. IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR DOG PLS DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG HERE. read more

Where to start? BEWARE if you have a senior dog. Or any dog with any health issue. Or any dog. I was absolutely astonished by the aggression and unprofessionalism of this business who only care for money and not customer service and are not dog people at all. When I booked, they were warm and nice. I spent several minutes explaining one of my dogs is very senior and listed his health issues and she reassured me that they can take care of him and that I should book an appointment for the afternoon when it will be calmer and more quiet for him. I explained how I get very anxious leaving him anywhere but alas she sounded convincing. Naturally, I felt better. Few days later I called to cancel my younger dogs appointment as he had been attacked by another dog and their response was just "ok". Very cold. This may sound petty, but for a business that cares for dogs you'd think a small "oh no" or "is he okay" would come to mind. I thought I'm maybe reading too much in to this but didn't appreciate their lack of a reaction. Anyhow, I took my senior dog in and upon arrival we had the *coldest*, most unenthusiastic "welcome". The owner stood in the back, barely batted an eyelid and the lady who "greeted" us just gave this attitude of "I don't want to talk just give me your dog". I proceeded to list my dogs issues *again* and she was just like yeah yeah yeah we got it. I did not feel reassured and my dog was shaking so much. My gut was saying no, don't leave him and I wish I listened to it. I can't put my finger on it but I just did not feel good in there. I then get a phone call about an hour later, which gave me the fright of my life. The lady said "umm hello" then paused for what felt like an eternity and I thought the worst had happened. Then she says "you have to come get your dog, we got halfway through and can't finish him, he keeps falling" - he keeps falling?! I asked "are you stabilizing him?!". I told them over and over his back legs are weaker due to his arthritis and they just kept repeating "he keeps falling come get him" even though I was asking questions she couldn't give me a straight answer. I asked to speak to the owner. The owner comes on and starts "you're dog is SUPER OLD" "he has this issue he has that issue" - as if this is news to me!! As if I didn't explain anything to them! She just went on at me and I asked her to stop disrespecting my dog and being so rude and to not touch him anymore and I'm on my way. I said my dog and myself have never had such poor treatment and I'll take him back to his usual spot. She said "GOOD LUCK finding someone who will take him". How cruel?? I got there and another lady I didn't see earlier came at me and started being extremely rude. I said I wanted my dog and to get out of there. My poor sweet dog was shaking like I've never seen before. No lie. I said I'll be taking him back to his usual spot to be properly cleaned up and she says "well why didn't you go there in the first place" I said because I wanted to find somewhere closer after moving recently. Not that it's their business. The owner came out. Would barely talk to me and just stood there letting this other lady be insanely rude to me. They said "we don't usually talk older dogs you shouldn't have brought him here". SO WHY DID YOU BOOK HIM AFTER EVERYTHING I EXPLAINED?! And he is visibly and clearly old so they had every chance to reject him when we arrived as well! They started listing his health issues his teeth this his this that as if I'm not aware. NOT that it's any of their business but I rescued him as an older dog with these health issues and between myself and his vet we are doing our best to care for him, costing me thousands. But I don't care. He deserves respect and a good life. This experience still makes me cry thinking about it. I said I will not pay for services not performed on my dog. The owner (still not looking at me) said just charge her for the bath and the other one was yelling at me saying I have to pay the full amount then after some back and forth said a bath costs $50 (?!?!). I asked the owner (who STILL wouldn't look at me) how much and she said $35. I still don't believe it but whatever I wanted to get out and shouldn't have paid for such an experience but alas my dog needed to get home and back to safety. The other lady screamed "STEALER, YOU'RE STEALING FROM A BUSINESS" as I exited. I had no more energy in me to turn and respond. Not to be dramatic but I had tears in my eyes and hands shaking. If you love your dog, please think twice about this place. I called his usual groomers and, no questions asked, they got him an appointment. He's been going there a couple years and each time they embrace him and cuddle him like a baby and calm him down. They take their time with him and he's always happy when I pick him up. Thank you It's Pawfect (in case you're wondering which place) for the consistent professionalism and love that you show for each and every dog. read more

Happy Husky is ready for Summer. Thank you so much Happy Hound for always continuously doing such an amazing job. Nixon comes home so fresh and clean and beautifully deshedded every single time. They even get all knots out of his tail and fluff it out. I won't be going anywhere else. They do such an amazing time each and every time. Thank you guys again! read more
