Precious Pet Dog Grooming Sln

I am impressed by the efforts these folks go to, bringing show quality grooming and big city day care to rural SD. They care about the quality of products they offer. They listen (and keep notes) to the preferences of each owner. They call if something comes up (hot spots, excess dander, etc). I really feel burned about the bad comments on here because I know they are unwarranted. To each their own I guess. For me and my crew, Precious Pets rocks! Pros: null Cons: null more

We are writing in response to Mr. Park. I have already commented, but the comment doesn't show up unless you click on it. I tried to have a decent conversation with this man about this issue with his dog, but he wouldn't tell us anything pertinent. The only thing he could say was the F bomb. (see comment under his post) We have been voted the local best 7 years in a row, and we strive hard to do our best with all our clients. His ranting and raving is totally out of line and making threats simply puts this out of our hands. We are sorry he is so upset, although we are still not even sure he has the right shop, as it was apparently not an issue with them until well after the fact , and he would give me no information whatsoever HE IS NOT IN OUR DATA-BASE.. The internet can be a wonderful tool unless it is totally mis-used with violent threats that are totally unreasonable and out of line. more

If you even remotely care about your animals, do NOT take them to this horrid place! I "used" to take my dog there. She had just gotten out of a cast for a broken leg, and I left her with the girl at the counter asking them to be very careful with her! I called about two hours later to check on how things were going, and got one of the owners on the phone...they knew absolutely NOTHING of what I had asked when I dropped my dog off. I went straight over to get her picked up and out of there and advised I was very upset and didn't want her left unattended to "fall of a grooming table or something". The owner appeared agitated, said "dogs do NOT fall off tables here". I swear to you, she no more than got that out of her mouth, and an unattended dog stepped off the side of the table, HUNG by the noose around her neck and then fell to the floor!! I have never been back. HOWEVER. Several years later, I see nothing has changed. My friend took her 16 year old standard poodle there for a haircut. When she got him home, he was not using his back leg. She immediately called the "salon" to find out what had happened to him, and was told "nothing happened". She then took him to the vet, the vet did xrays and they found he had experienced severe trama which would have occurred (you guessed it!) in a fall. The vet felt the dog was too old to survive surgery and he was in extreme pain. The dog was put down. :( They LIED to her about an injury that her dog sustained in their care. I gave one star because I had to give a rating to inform you. I initially gave zero "stars". DO NOT GO THERE. more

I took my yorkie here after hearing good things about the groomers. When I brought her in they seemed nice and asked questions about what I wanted done. I came back three hours later and my poor baby was BALD! They said she had knots. I brush her out everyday with a comb and make sure I get down to the skin so I KNOW she isn't matted. When I told them this they said that she was naughty (again I brush her everyday so I know she isn't, plus other groomers have always complemented me on how well behaved she is) When she saw me she was so excited and when the lady tried to pet her she shied away, which she never does as she loves people. When I got her home and looked her over she had red marks on her belly and I called back and they were VERY rude to me. They said my dog was "very uncooperative" About 8 weeks later I took my dog to a different groomer and told her what the previous groomer had said about her being naughty. When I picked her up from that groomer she said that my dog was a perfect angel and that the other groomer must have been being mean or lying about my dog. I would never again take my dog there or recommend them to anybody else! Pros: They sell good pet food. Cons: Rude and lie to customers more

I took my dog in for a haircut and was very pleased with the results. They listened to my ideas and she looked great when I came to pick her up. I was worried they would try to cut her hair like a poodles or something, but I was very impressed..she even had cute little bows in the front of her hair!! I have already scheduled a return appointment and am bringing my other yorkie with too! Pros: great job grooming Cons: a little more than I've paid in the past..but well worth it! more

On the surface, this presents as a wonderful, top quality salon, but after that, it goes downhill. We used to use their boarding service and shuttle, but after several instances of "forgetting" our pet at their resort, and finding the food, bed and toys we had left to be shuttled with our dog to the kennel still at the salon - so that our pet went without them the whole weekend, I am extremely disappointed. We had medication for our dog on one occasion that was "forgotten" by them and left at the salon the entire time. Pros: Good quality pet food Cons: Incompetent management of both salon and resort more

The folks at Precious Pets go beyond the standard grooming salon. Two of the owners come from a dog show/breeding family (their father also is a dog show judge) and the entire staff is dedicated to not only keeping your dog looking good, but feeling good too. Their doggie daycare is wonderful for building your dogs' self-confidence and helping them overcome some common behavior problems. Additionally, they sell the best of the best dog foods and other supplies for your dog. If you want the best for your dog, take it to Precious Pets! Pros: Knowledgeable, caring staff that really know dogs Cons: Can't think of any! more

We've found that Precious Pets is a great place for grooming. We first brought our Yorkie to Petco but I was sick of them botching her everytime I brought her in. The groomers at Precious Pets listen to what I want, and I know she isn't going to be passed off onto a different groomer as soon as I leave. Their prices are also comparable to Petco. more
