    Very happy dog

    I understand that most people may not have the time or care to read a lengthy review, so let me summarize: 1) Happy Paw's Grooming is the best grooming facility I have ever encountered (I'm old, so I've been to a lot of grooming places 2). Emerald did an incredible job, and there aren't enough adjectives to express my gratitude for finding her and Happy Paw's.3). They are genuinely compassionate and loving in their work, and aesthetically, do the best job! The best grooming facility around! Last takeaway in my consolidated review: you won't be disappointed. Emerald was wonderful with my dog, Puff. He had been living with my ex and hadn't been groomed in over three years. I realized, upon picking him up to take him to Happy Paw's, that he was in quite a state--he even had old and new dog poop on him! Naturally, I was embarrassed, but more importantly, I felt horrified and sad for Puff. When I mentioned to Emerald that I could clean Puffs poop up quickly to spare her from the mess and SMELL of his poop covered hair and butt. Emerald was sincerely nonjudgmental. All she cared about was helping Puff; she reassured me not to worry and said she didn't mind handling it. I couldn't believe her kindness. This wonderful young lady follows her passion/bliss, and her compassion and grooming skills truly shine through. She recognized that Puff was miserable and needed help, and all she wanted to do was assist him without any concern for the mess. It was truly compassionate and genuine. I feel so fortunate to have discovered this grooming facility, especially since I chose it simply because they had availability that day to take Puff. Although it's over 10 miles away, Emerald has found a loyal customer in me, because I've never encountered such compassion for my pet at any grooming place, plus Emerald is undoubtedly the best groomer out there. Puff looks fantastic! Unlike those horror stories you see online about Pomeranians after their first shave, he looks wonderful. I am thrilled, and most importantly, Puff is happy too. There is no doubt in my mind that I will return; I can't see myself going anywhere else. Emerald did a fabulous job grooming Puff--he needed to be shaved down completely, and she was gentle and kind throughout the process. Puff is now like a new dog, acting like a playful puppy again and relieved to be free of all that matted fur and poop mess. The main reason I chose Happy Paw's is that they had the availability to groom Puff the day I was picking him up; I already knew he urgently needed to be groomed. I am so happy that luck was on my side that day. And I ended up at Happy Paws because I couldn't be happier!

But recently, (tho as I read other one star reviews... this seems to be a trend for years with Luke), the owner, seems to have forgotten business etiquette and professionalism. He is incredibly rude, narcissistic, and threatening. I now question why my dogs were so scared of going there, maybe it wasn't just the blow dryers..... I'd be scared to refer anyone to this business at this point after reading others recent reviews. I made an appointment for my two goldens months in advance knowing my pregnancy due date and baby on the way and wanted them fresh before her arrival. I always happily pay extra during services for them to not be kenneled as they are little chickens and get stressed in a kennel. Spawology cancelled on me twice via text message, never bothered to call as a business owner a never seemed very apologetic. Cancelled on me twice and then told me my goldens were difficult. I had to call myself To get them rescheduled after the first cancellation, because The business never followed up with me. I Do not recommend this business due to lack of communication, zero professionalism, and adaptability especially if you're in a time crunch. They do Not seem to be able to handle dogs with any special grooming needs, tho their website will portray that they do. You would think after cancelling on me the previous week for a Different reason, maybe he would share the love and cancel another appointment in order to accommodate, especially as I was very understanding the first cancellation. They must be very understaffed as well and unable to accommodate the appointments they take on. It also appears he has zero accountability or willingness to take constructive criticism of his business. Happy to give my hundreds of dollars it costs for grooming to another more appreciative, adaptable business.

    In response to the owner's comment on 12/21:…read more You suggested that we go to the vet as the cut looked like CANCER. The vet told us he does not have cancer & said the nose looked like it was scraped pretty deep by a razor or a clipper. It's the fact that you or whoever groomed my dog weren't transparent with what happened when I picked him up. Instead you guys tried to cover it up. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dishonest & shady business. I am putting my review here to let others know so their fur babies don't come here. My dog Yuki came out of his groom with part of his nose shaved off (See attached pictures). I noticed that his nose was extra shiny when I picked him up like they tried to cover their accident up with ointment. We didn't think too much about it as his nose was still black. However, over the next few days, whatever they put on him wore off & you can very clearly see the deep cut on his nose as it turned very pink like the raw skin was exposed. When I reached out to the business to ask about what happened, rather than owning up to their mistake and being transparent on what happened, the owner recommended that we visit our vet because she claims the cut looked like cancer OR that he may have cut it coming out of the kennel. CANCER OR KENNEL?! First off, this cut mysteriously appeared right after his grooming appointment and what kind of kennel has sharp edges for his nose to be cut THIS deep??! The least she could have done was own up to their mistake and apologize but we received excuse after excuse so now we have to resort to a negative review to warn other people out there not to bring their fur babies to this business.

Bad things: the owner was generally nice to our dog, but she constantly solicited positive reviews, even to the point of grabbing our phone and dictating a positive review.

Not with Dog Holliday! My pup was in and out in about an hour and a half which leads me to believe he was not crated at all in addition to not actually seeing any crates there. My dog is afraid of hard wood floors and doorways so getting him in was a big of a struggle but the man and woman working were very sweet to him and there was also another dog there just hanging out that absolutely helped with his nerves. They were efficient and really listened to our requests. I worry about bringing my dog into the groomers because I am pretty particular about where to trim him and not to touch. They followed exactly what we requested and trimmed the areas that needed it perfectly. There prices are also extremely reasonable!

One requires a partial teddy bear cut for health reasons, and the other has a more traditional Pom cut. From the moment I arrived, the experience felt different in the best way. There were at least three staff members involved in welcoming me, and someone even opened the door for me, which may sound small, but when you're carrying two Pomeranians, it's huge. No one ever does that. I was able to do a 12:00 PM drop-off, which is so much easier on both me and my dogs than the typical 7:00 AM drop-off. That alone was a big win. They were finished by 3:30, and I received a text when they were ready. Every single dog walking out of the salon looked proud, happy, and beautiful, and my dogs were no exception. They look fantastic. One of my little Poms does appear to have had some coat damage from excessive clipping in the past, but the staff took the time to make detailed notes about her coat and clearly explained how we can improve it over the next few grooming sessions. That level of thoughtfulness and long-term care really impressed me. The staff was kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about my dogs as individuals. I would highly recommend Cici's Pet Parlor, especially if you're looking for a groomer who understands both dogs and their humans.
