In short: Take my word for it, I've tried just about every dog groomer and kennel business on the South Shore. Stop all that Googling and just pick this guy!
Long version: When I go away for business, the dog's gotta stay somewhere. Usually I splurge on a grooming while I'm there. By the time I tried Briarwood, I was fed up with the other businesses in the area. I had high standards but little hope, and believe it or not, this business won me over.
The owner just plain knows dogs. He doesn't treat your dog like he's afraid of it or like he's afraid of YOU. He's not timid. Instead, and this is refreshing, he treats your dog like he's another dog. Watching him groom my pet, I imagined him like my neighbors dog rolling him around. He UNDERSTANDS dogs, plain and simple.
My dog is scared to death of nail trimmings, no matter who does it. He usually is scared for long after it's done. It takes someone like Dave to calm the dog down and get the job done as quick as possible. And he's ready to go right after!
NO complaints on overnight stays either, great value.
