Pooches Day Spa

I have never been so disappointed in a grooming salon! I am really angry is a better description of my feelings since I picked up my beautiful Pomeranian earlier today. When I dropped him off, I talked to one technician and described and showed her pictures of what I wanted him to look like… basically just trimming off the longer hair all over. When I picked him up, a different technician informed me that she had groomed him because he was so cute and she wanted to take care of him. Well, she didn’t know obviously how I wanted him cut and she never saw the pictures that I had of him so, I guess she decided to do it her way. He was basically shaved, and so uneven all over that it’s ridiculous! I’m still in shock! I am posting pictures of the before and after and what I asked for. I will never go here again. And I’m sure my puppy will be glad too because he hasn’t behaved like his normal self since being picked up! I really want to give no stars but it won’t let me!

Nabbing an appointment is sometimes difficult around the holidays, but this small, local groomer is tops for taking care of our little buddy. I decided to start early with my current dog based on the recommendation of the owner, Angel. They have taken great care of him and he is never afraid of going in for his cut and shampoo. Because his hair grows quickly and easily mats, I keep him in a puppy cut and he goes in at least every 4 – 5 weeks.
The staff is great and they seem to really enjoy the business they are in. I have recommended this location to many friends without hesitation. They also carry a small variety of some of the more premium dog foods like Orijen and Petcurian, as well as many high quality treats. The shop is very cute and is tucked away in the corner in a small strip center near i10 on Fair Oaks Parkway.

I’ve taken my dog here many times and they always do a great job. I’ve been quoted over $ 120 + at several other grooming businesses (I have a VERY large dog), so the $ 84 dollars I pay for a bath and grooming is well worth it at Pooches. I agree with another reviewer that Angel is very sweet.

Awesome Place! I have a 7 year old Bichon who has always been afraid of the groomer… but not here! Angel is sweet and patient with the animals and my dog has NEVER looked so beautiful! Will only go here!

Great grooming, I can’t believe how much coat they can clear from my chow mix. He looks great! He has separation anxiety but they are so patient and good with him. Not to mention they have a great shop! One of the few places in San Antonio that carries Orijen. The BEST dog kibble on the market. Also carry raw food, toys, treats and great smelling candles.
