We recently got a new puppy and have been going to Uptown Hound since he started being groomed. We have only gone there 3 times and were charged $50 cash, no checks or credit cards. We just recently had our 4th grooming session. When I went to pick up our dog, I was told the fee was increased to $65. I wasn't told this before the grooming session but after which I didn't think was right. When I asked why, the groomer told me my dog was not a mini goldendoodle but a standard size poodle. No way he isn't close to a standard size poodle. Was also told that the last time or two he was hard to groom around his head areas but he wouldn't hold still. We will NOT be going back there. If should have been told of the increase and why before the grooming session. The groomers reason for not telling us before was and I quote- "you probably would have walked out if I told you before" Very very unprofessional in my opinion. read more
