Hot Dog Pet Grooming Salon

Laurie is wonderful. She knows ALOT about all dogs and grooms cats too! She is very flexible so if I’m not able to pick up my dog until the end of the day, she is fine with it. She also believes and supports rescue, unlike so many pet groomers out there. So many believe and promote breeding which I am very much against and it’s all business to them and nothing more, just not about a love for animals. Laurie is great.

I brought my two dogs to this place on two separate occasions. The first time was great, however this was due to a wonderful staff member named Michaela. Apparently Michaela has moved onto her own business and the second time I came here, I was not impressed with the customer service/​friendliness of the owner who has taken up the slack. The cuts on both occasions were decent however when the owner doesn’t seem to treat the customers or the dogs with respect (she’s not a very warm person at all, it almost seems like she does this just for the money), it doesn’t send the right vibe to me. I’m a dog person, have been my whole life and the way she treats the dogs is questionable. Your supposed to earn the dog’s trust and respect, not force them to do things against their will and handle them roughly. To me, the owner of a business should take great pride in what they do and be open and friendly to their clients both people and animal. My pack doesn’t feel comfortable ever going back here.

Brought my Leonberger in to check out the U-​Groom option. Worked out great for us. I called ahead to plan a good time for us to be there. The owner was very flexible and accommodating. Then she was very helpful while I was there. I will definitely be back.

I wouldn’t bring my dog Bella anywhere else. She’s never happy being dropped off anywhere, but the ladies were always kind and positive with her — which has helped since we first started bringing her there. They are always flexible about getting her in and out. And she always comes out looking great! I highly recommend this small shop for your dog grooming needs.
That said, the only setback is the size of the salon (which when the shop is really busy makes it harder to schedule — even when they are so awesomely flexible), BUT I consider the size of the shop to be a positive thing as well because then there’s never more than a few dogs around, which can ease my dog’s stress, which is always a good thing.
