Our team are professional Dog Groomers trained in positive reinforcement training and handling. We do not like to stress out the animals in our care and practice gentle grooming. This technique is where we patiently work with the dogs to groom at their comfortable pace and provide breaks and lots of cuddles. We call this process, "Riding The Wave". We appreciate everyone's understanding on the time frames we require. Your groomer is always doing their best. We look forward to seeing you and your fur baby soon.
