We went every two weeks for a couple months for a brush and modified blow dry to help him get used to it. Now he goes for the full service and is a champ. He's a big dog (80lb Pyredoodle) so the full service is a little expensive, but worth it.

The groom is always perfect, scheduling is easy, and I trust that my dog is in good hands when I drop him off. I also appreciate that they don't overbook leaving the dogs there all day like some places do. I also apprecoate that if you have any grooming questions (like how to get burrs out :) }, they are very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this dog grooming service.

My dog was probably treated the same, I would expect a warm blow dryer. My pups cut was choppy and the paws were not cleaned up very well.

She seems very knowledgeable about Pomeranians which a lot of places are not. I was very well satisfied and will be making my second appointment today and bringing my other dog who is also a Pomeranian there next week! I really like the fact that she lets you stay while she's grooming and not only that you can actually see your dog the whole time. I never liked when places took them in the back out of view. To me this proves she has nothing to hide.

His fur was uneven, his face was stinky, and he was absolutely terrified in the car. I knew it was too good to be true when Buffalo Barks called me half an hour later telling me he was ready to be picked up after I dropped him off. I've been to multiple grooming salons where it takes at least 90+ minutes. That was my first bad experience. Second bad experience: I had made a grooming appointment on Friday March 6th. I show up and the guy tells me that he "called me and left a voicemail" stating that the groomer was out sick. I didn't receive a voicemail and rescheduled for Sunday March 15th. I showed up at 3:30pm which was our scheduled appointment and the place was closed. I called them the next day on Monday March 16th and the guy told me, "Yeah, we closed at 3pm yesterday because no one else was coming in." I literally saw this guy write my name down in his calendar. They obviously didn't thoroughly check their calendar. I rescheduled for that Thursday March 18th only for him to call me back and cancel my appointment TWICE. I eventually just let them pick a time for Thursday because I needed my pup cut ASAP. Mind you, he was supposed to get his hair cut on 3/6 and he was scheduled to go on 3/19- almost 2 whole weeks later. My dog is a shih tzu and his fur grows fast! I have no clue what happened to this place. I had a great experience the first few times I took my pup there. I ended up scheduling a grooming appointment at Dog Days of Buffalo where they took my pup the next day. I called Buffalo Barks to cancel my appointment and they had the audacity to ask me if I wanted to reschedule. I told them no thank you! I rather learn how to cut my dog's hair than go back to that place again.
