Generation Dog

Love this place! You get what you pay for– although it may seem pricey I can assure you after trying other groomers it’s well worth the money! Melissa does a wonderful job and my maltipoo Romeo looks amazing every single time! Upon picking up your pup you have 48 hrs if you want something fixed and they are so happy to do! Plus they have really cute items for sale in shop!

Catherine the owner is very passionate, and knowledgeable about dogs. She selects only the highest quality items to put in her store. You can tell there is thought behind every thing there. Whether you’re getting your dog groomed, or shopping for a new collar you won’t be disappointed.

Horrible experience. The groomers are inept, and the customer service is poor. Much better options in Homewood.
The store is cute, but your dog deserves better.
I created this Unilocal account in response to my and my dog’s treatment at this store today. I’ve never reviewed anything or Unilocal before.

Sometimes people think my dog (aka my baby) is a boy. She is, in fact, a girl, and a girly-​girl at that. So, when people mistakenly ask if «he» is nice or if «he» is angry (when a stranger enters the house, she growls… simple good guard dog stuff), I am offended and, to be honest, upset. Additionally, Rosie sheds like none other and her nails grow at lightening speed — thank you expensive food! To remedy this, instead of getting her nails clipped at the vet or a big box pet store, I decided to investigate a pet boutique.
Let’s get this straight — Rosie came from humble beginnings. Born on the wrong side of the tracks in Durham, she was abused by gang members as a weeks old puppy before being taken to a rescue farm in North Carolina. While there — with thirty cats and thirty other dogs — she was neglected, underfed, and picked on by the other animals. So a fancy pet boutique for my «hybrid» (I loathe the term ‘mutt’)? I wasn’t sure.
Then Rosie and I stepped into Generation Dog in SoHo. Wowza (bowza?). I thought I was a dog person, but not in comparison to the sweet owner, Catherine. Our first visit was a quick nail clip and run out the door, but we went back yesterday and had quite the time. Rosie had her nails clipped (and they actually file the nail after cutting it so it doesn’t scratch– a huge deal in our house). As I looked around I mentioned to Catherine that people often think Rosie is a boy, so she took that as a challenge and helped us find the PERFECT pink ruffle collar with matching leash for Miss Rosie. She even put a little clip on pink bow in her fluffy fur to complete the look and took pictures to post on the company Facebook page.
As Rosie warmed up to the camera, she also warmed up to one of Catherine’s pups, Cooper, who kindly asked Rosie to be his girlfriend. Needless to say she was flattered and thrilled by all this new love and attention — and the apple cinnamon treats she got — and cannot wait to return to Generation Dog for her «Furminator» treatment next week. Shed be gone! Yay for dogs! And adorable handmade ruffle collars for Rosie!
