CONNIE'S PET GROOMING

unknown

This was the 4th groomer I'd taken him to.  Everyone else said he was
difficult and wouldn't let them cut his face area. He even bit the 3rd
groomer.  But Connie was very friendly, talked to me dog, made friends with him.  She lets the
dogs loose in her facility/yard so they can play together. I especially
liked this since my dog isn't around many other dogs.  My dog was
bathed, cut and nails clipped. He looked and smelled wonderful when I
picked him up.  Connie said my dog didn't growl or snap at her.  I will
use her again.

She has a very nice facility, is very reasonable (her prices are at least 1/3 to 1/2 lower than any competitors), is very personable and is good for pets, she also is very convenient. What makes her so unique is her convenience in taking both dogs and cats!

I arrived for my dog's grooming appointment but could not enter the gate to the yard that led to the grooming garage because of all the large dogs running loose. No one tried to corral the loose dogs, even though I said three times that my small dog (whom I was holding) did not like to be around big dogs. I had said this on the phone when making the appointment. Regardless, I was led through the dog yard with some difficulty (two really large dogs slobbered on my black pants such that I had to go gome and change before going to work). The grooming garage smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. It was dirtier than any pet area I have ever seen: large bins of clipped fur, kennels with dirty blanket, loose dogs, feces on the floor, clutter piled up against the walls, and the urine smell was more than I could stand. I am not a ninny--I live in the country, in a farming community around farm animals and such. But I have never seen or smelled a place of business in such horrendous conditions. Fortunately, I received an emergency call and had to leave--with my dog.
