These folks are fabooo! We have a very nervous dog (and a nervous doggie mom!). Robin, the groomer and co-owner w/Marilyn, was soothing to all parties concerned. Jerry, our muttish long-haired dachshund, expressed his nervousness promptly by pee-ing three times in the grooming area. No problem-0! Not only did we get a fabulously groomed clean dog, he was so pampered, petted, treat-i-fied, that he was really grooving on all the loving attention long before we took him home. When Marily wasn't busy in the front part of the store (mass amounts of doggie treats, high-quality foods including raw diets, all sorts of cute gear, the most buttery soft leashes and collars, etc.), she was hanging out in the grooming area loving on Jerry! Another big difference: they only work on one (1) dog at a time. No stressing the dog by having it kenneled for long periods of time, being around other stressed out barking dogs, etc. Prices are also extremely reasonable. If we'd known that dog grooming was so affordable, we'd have had it done sooner! Also bought beautiful butter-soft red leather gear for our aussie. And those Duck treats are to die for!!\r
Now, if they'd only provide spa services for the owners at the same time.....8-)\r
