I took our new puppy to The Dog Shop for her first nail clipping experience for a couple of reasons. First being, their location is super convenient for me. Second, I had talked with one of the owners about my pups first clipping and I appreciated all of their insights.
I'm not going to lie though, I was still so nervous. My previous dog (who has since passed away) was terrified to have his nails clipped. I'm sure that was in part of the bad experiences he'd had early on. I didn't want that to be the case for my puppy. I wanted her to have a good experience from the get go so I was so worried that she would have a bad experience. Like, what if they accidentally cut to close to the quick (her nails are black)...etc...
This was not the case though! The ladies (Jessica and Danielle) were AMAZING! They were quick and my puppy was comforted and cared for the whole time. Not a peep of distress from her.
I will be bringing our pup back to them in a couple of weeks for her first bath experience which I'm hoping goes just as well.
I called ahead of time for the appointment. They were recommended to me by my vet. It was extremely conveniently located. There is a big room they do the work in, but the dogs are allowed to play in that room as well. No cages. It is very clean and doesn't smell.

By far the best groomers we have ever found! Our Airedale Booker has been groomed there several times now and looks better than ever. Previous groomers shaved him which led to skin irritations. Now, his skin is a good as ever! Booker is happy from the moment he arrives and enjoys playing with the other dogs. We take our Corgi Parker in for nail trims - something Corgis generally don't like. The girls have the magic touch because Parker puts up very little fuss, amazing! So very glad we found this local gem!

I brought my dog, Boopsie, into The Dog Shop for a grooming session a few weeks ago and was very impressed with their work. I walked in with a shaggy dog that had not been groomed in months, and what I got back was a sweet smelling good looking and happy but sleepy pup. She was able to play and socialize with the other dogs in the free-roaming facility for several hours before she was groomed which was a big plus for me. It meant I didn't have to take her out for a walk when I got home!
The facility itself was clean and had a relaxed atmosphere. I was served promptly and the groomer consulted with me on my grooming preferences for Boopsie since it was our first time in. It's easy to see why they have so many loyal customers because they did a great job! I got a precious little teddy bear back when they were done and I was so pleased with their work that I went ahead and made a future grooming appointment before I left. The groomer, Jess, recommended I do since they book many weeks out. Another added convenience is the fact that there's a pet store right next door to The Dog Shop which meant I was able to pick up some last minute items before I got Boopsie.
We are looking forward to our next appointment, and highly recommend The Dog Shop for dog owners who want quality grooming at reasonable rates.
We have been bringing our golden retriever Ellie here for years. She came from an abusive situation and the ladies at the Dog Shop take the time to ensure that she is comfortable and that it is a fun experience for Ellie. Ellie actually gets excited about going to the Dog Shop. She loves the interaction with the other dogs, especially Huckleberry. They do an awesome job grooming her. Always professional and friendly service!
