The setup makes everything so much easier and faster, and way less messy. After reading other reviews, I started bringing extra towels, brushes, and my own shampoo since my pup has such a thick coat, and that's worked out perfectly. One time I went by myself, and the staff kindly helped me lift my dog into the bath, which I really appreciated. They're always friendly and willing to help. I also love that they have demo products you can try, and they smell amazing! Overall, such a convenient, thoughtful setup that makes bath time so much less stressful. Highly recommend for anyone with a big, fluffy dog!

The Good: great people, great grooming and baths and "CAGE FREE"…read more. The Bad: April 1st they began charging $25 per dog for a "cageless service fee". The problem is they don't have any cages in the grooming area. And if you bring 2 dogs in together then it $50 before you do anything!! You don't have a choice to do cageless or caged. One of the great things about Dirty Dogs is that it is cage free. So find another way to increase prices more legitimately, and until then I will have to think twice about coming in again or as often. A friend of mine said that he cut back on the amount that he tips to make up for this charge. That's not fair to the groomers. But it's his way of letting you know that he doesn't approve of this frivolous fee either.

While they sell Betta fish, they don't carry other live animals, though they do have a selection of products for fish tanks. The treats bar is a fantastic deal.

He has years of experience, is pleasant to talk to and listens to specific grooming requests. The grooming prices are very reasonable. As a side note, they have a "happy hour" where you can walk in and have your dog's nails trimmed at a discounted rate.

I've been coming here for over a year and had always been really happy, which makes this even more…read moredisappointing to write. The service itself has been good, and that's why I kept coming back. However, over the past few visits, the pricing has become frustrating. I completely understand that businesses need to raise prices over time, but what's not okay is the lack of communication. The last three times I've come in, my total has increased without any notice beforehand. Prices have nearly doubled since I first started coming, and at no point was I told in advance what the updated cost would be. It puts customers in an uncomfortable position at checkout and doesn't feel transparent or respectful. A quick heads-up before starting the service would make a big difference. I really hope they improve communication, because this could easily be a great long-term place if that piece was handled better.

Love Dexter's Deli and have only good things to say about it! First of all I had never heard of it…read morebut being a new pet parent I am sure glad I found it. It's such a great SD store that has a boutique feel and carries such a variety of products and many items I never knew existed. The staff were super friendly and love that my dog enjoyed all the treats they gave him. Both of the employees I spoke with were super knowledgeable and really had a passion for dogs. I ended up buying some flower essence and another other calming item, which I didn't know had existed and was happy I was introduced to them by the staff. I will say that I am most impressed and pleased that they fully support rescues and adoptions and we received a "share the love" gift that included some great items like a bag of food that was so generous. Not to mention that it's a woman-owned small business. I'll definitely be back and am looking forward to checking out the other locations!

I spent days researching online and was ready to order everything, but I'm so glad I decided to come in person instead. I walked out of Mary's literally smiling like I just had my first kiss and blushing because I looked so good in my new riding outfit. I ended up spending about $1,000 on a pair of boots, two pairs of pants, and a top, and every single item was top-tier in quality. The fit, the feel, everything was just right. I cannot thank Jennifer enough. She helped me for nearly two hours, patiently guiding me through trying on at least five pairs of boots and almost ten outfits. She was so kind, so patient, and genuinely cared about making sure everything fit perfectly. She didn't rush me and even switched out boots just to double-check the fit. I've truly never experienced service like that in any industry. I hugged her multiple times because I was that grateful. She made me feel confident and taken care of in a way I'll never forget. Sizing varies so much between brands. I wear a large in sports bras but ended up in an extra small top from one brand, so coming in person is a must. If you're new to riding or coming back like me, skip the online guessing and come here. The options are endless, the service is next level, and the experience is unforgettable. Five stars all the way. I'll only be shopping here from now on. Thank you again, and major love to Jennifer. She's the absolute best.

I have a Great Pyr and Anatolian Shepherd and we love Dirty Dogs self wash AND grooming!…read more I usually come here just for the self wash with my Anatolian, because he's short hair and I figured why not save a few bucks and do it myself. He's a big boy and also a big scaredy cat. He doesn't like the height of the tubs unfortunately but we had a staff member assist with picking him up and loading him into the tub...which was very kind!! Overall self wash is a decent enough price but I believe they have deals on certain days. Now on to the grooming... Had to use their grooming services last min because my usual groomer was completely booked! Dirty Dogs staff was extremely accommodating and communicative during the book process after I booked online. We happen to get Miss Megan and WE LOVE HER!! She was so great with my hairy girl and really took the time to get all the mats out!! She did really incredible work and I HIGHLY recommend going to her but all the groomers there are wonderful!

I've been coming to Dirty Dogs in Carmel Mountain for a while to use the self-wash station. In the…read morepast, whenever I asked for a tub to be cleaned, staff usually sanitized it. But, today was different. Both tubs had visible dog hair all over the mats, inside the tubs, and even in the drains. Which clearly hadn't been properly cleaned. When I politely asked if the tubs were sanitized, I was told they were sprayed down. But when I asked for gloves to clean it myself, the staff member came over with a dismissive attitude. removed the drain piece, set it aside, and walked away without actually cleaning it. Cleanliness should be a basic expectation, right? Especially, at a self-wash facility. I was disappointed not just by the filth, but also by the way I was treated for asking. I ended up leaving without washing my dog, after driving all the way from Escondido and coordinating with my husband to meet me there. It was a waste of time and a really disappointing experience.
