I watched and for an hour I did not see my dog. I called and was told by the woman, I was just about to call you, your dog did not pass the meet and greet. Their story was they put my dog in a crate so a new dog could enter and when they let my dog out he snapped at the new dog. All which was conveniently off camera. If this is all true why would they not call me right away? Why did they leave my dog in a crate for an hour? I was the one who called them. Horrible, my dog is now acting traumatized. Do not trust this business. I would have given it 0 stars if I could.

Picked them up this morning. They seemed to have a great time. If ever in the area again I would have Dawn watch our girls again. I highly recommend her. (Sorry no photos this time)

Upon trying to find a new groomer for my Shih Tzu, I stumbled upon Thyme for a Paws (love this play…read moreof words btw, genius!). I bought Ollie for his scheduled appointment which I was so happy to be able to pick and choose my services for my fur baby online. For $65-70 , you get a lovely bath, groom, nails trimmed/cut, cute accessory, ears and teeth cleaning. This is a HUGE deal as many other grooming places charge so much higher prices for these same services. I immediately felt welcomed and reassured that my dog was in excellent and loving hands with the groomer that was there. She was very supportive, kind and truly an angel. Ollie did a wonderful job and there were no hesitations that we will be coming back very soon for his next appointment. If you live near Fishkill, I truly recommend this local grooming salon. They also have babysitting for your fur baby and the place is very welcoming for them too (room to play, no cages). :)

From the moment I contacted them to the…read moretime I picked up my fur friend, it was clear that this place is a wonderful place for pets and their humans. First off, it's impossible to find someone to groom a cat in this area. We had a situation and desperately needed help with our long-haired Siberian. Unlike every other groomer we contacted, Furever Friends Family couldn't have been kinder, more generous, or more accommodating. They squeezed us in for a same-day appointment without hesitating. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely love animals. They took the time to understand my cats needs, her personality, and ensured a tailored grooming experience. My usually anxious feline felt at ease almost immediately (and seemed to like them more than me!) The grooming itself was top-notch. My cat came out looking like a show-stopper. Additionally, the space is spotless. You can tell cleanliness is a top priority! I can't recommend Furever Friends Family enough. If you want a place where your cat will be treated with love and come out looking (and smelling) fantastic, this is it. Five enthusiastic stars!

I absolutely love Anniel, the owner, and have complete confidence in her. I have a Coton de Tulear…read more(long coat like a Bichon) and I've taken him to her once a week for over a year to keep his coat mat-free and healthy. He wiggles and wags upon entering and gives Anniel and her assistant kisses. That says it all in my book. Businesses like K-9 Clippers deserve to be shared and recognized - they are exceedingly rare in my experience - ergo I'm writing my first Yelp review. Anniel truly cares about a dog's "grooming experience." My dog is not easy - before bringing him to K-9, I had tried grooming him myself; by the time I brought my dog to Anniel, he was a matted mess. More importantly, he was traumatized from attempts to remove his mats myself. During, his first grooming, she called me and told me he was biting; we agreed the best course was to shave him. She expressed that she was worried I'd not come back (1st time client and I'd wanted to keep his coat long), but also said in good conscience, the best and least painful option for my dog was to shave him and start over. She said she feared that if she kept going with the de-matting, he would develop a hatred of grooming from which he might never recover. I was so impressed with her honesty. I gave her the go-ahead to shave him, and thanks to her, he's never been shaved again! :) I am so grateful, too, that she did not give up on him due to the biting (which would have been understandable). He has actually *improved* thanks to her patience and persistence - even I can brush him now without his biting me. He needed time to trust that pain would no longer come from brushing once he was no longer matted. He grew out beautifully, and he gets compliments everywhere he goes thanks to his weekly sessions with her! Anniel knows dogs: she owns them, shows them, and to my mind, truly loves them. I'm a dog-nerd: I love seeing who is on the table when I go to pick up my guy: a Bichon in full "poof"; a handsome Doodle is another regular; two classically-groomed Scotties and a handful of Shih Tzu-types always make me smile. Every dog looks marvelous. The environment is quiet and calm; it is always Anniel and her assistant. The grooming tables are up front and in plain view. Everything is always clean and fresh. Her pricing is very fair - she has a sliding scale of sorts based upon how frequently you bring your dog and the level of grooming they require. For instance, every 6 weeks or so, I'm charged for a full grooming; but in between, I'm charged much less for a bath and brush. She is not fast...but I don't want her to be. Haste makes waste. My guy comes out looking exactly the same every week - how she does that, I don't know! :) Some people don't like leaving their dog all day, and that is an understandable preference. However unlike some places where the length of stay negatively impacts the dog (and I've taken my dog to one of those prior to finding K-9), I've never detected this here: like I said - every week, he goes in happy and comes out happy. Meanwhile (knowing he's well cared for) I can get a few things done. If this is a deal-breaker for you, I'd still recommend contacting her to see whether in your case, the grooming can be made shorter because, honestly? It's the best grooming you'll find. Finally, Anniel as a person is a pleasure to deal with. She and her assistant are always sunny and upbeat - I've never caught them in a bad mood in all my visits. Two thumbs (and four paws!) up!
