Many people grimace at the idea of a pet beauty spa, but the fact is that there are those who like to dote on their pets and spoil them occasionally. I would probably enjoy giving my dog such a treat every now and then if her hair was longer than a centimetre.
K9 Chic is much more than a pet spa, they also offer courses in grooming (for pets, not husbands), sell pet clothing and despite the name, they provide a limited service for cats, as well as 'doggy day care'.
I have browsed through the store but unfortunately cannot offer any guidance as to the grooming experience itself, or at least, how I perceived my dog's reaction. I can say that the range of clothing and accessories is quite impressive and that I've never seen anything quite like it. Items sold here include raincoats, tracksuits, formal wear, shoes, sleepwear and sun protection. There are also bowls, leashes and collars as well as bedding and even cute poo-bag dispensers (I'm not sure that makes the cleanup experience more pleasant).
While hovering outside I did see one woman emerge with her freshly groomed pet, who I must say looked fabulous, clean and ready to take on the world. read more
