| Breed: Maltese | Store: Petco |
| Around December of last year, the prices for a basic dog grooming increased at our local Petco from $38 to $48. It used to be a good deal, now it is priced more like all the other dog groomers around town. |

| Breed: any | Store: |
| Someone, preferably a groomer, should look at the breeds listed in the article because they are way off. Bichons and poodles are more expensive small dog grooms, and the breeds listed as mid-sized and uncomplicated are all expensive grooms, if done correctly! |

| don\'t price shop for your groomer!! |
| Amount: $0.00 |
| Posted by: gr00mer in pensacola, FL. | Posted: September 10th, 2008 08:09AM |
| Please do not pick your groomer by prices!! Many inexpensive grooms do not include everything or you may end up with a not so great groom. Ask to see your groomers work, either in a portfolio, oron a pet that they have just finished. Observe how clean the shop is, how she/he handles the pets, how they are speaking to the pets in their care. A good pet groomer knows a lot of frustration and stress on a daily basis, and how she/he reacts to that stress is a good indicator of their personality. NEVER EVER leave your pet with someone that you do not like or get a bad vibe from. As groomers, we should all understand that! |

| Breed: All | Store: |
| I don't understand why people would get a dog if they don't want to pay for grooming. Groomers work very hard for the little bit of money people are will to pay. Most people these days are to cheap to even give a tip and they should know better! If you work at any other job you would not expect to do many hours of work for very little pay. Would you? If you don't want to pay & tip for grooming, don't own a dog!! |

| Breed: Shih Tzu/Chihuahua | Store: Petsmart |
| Took my Shih Tzu/Chihuahua mix 6mos old puppies to Petsmart Grooming. Cost for each was $36 plus $6 for \"special\" puppy shampoo(optional). Both dogs are smooth coat and not your typical Shiz Tzu coat. Both puppies came out smelling yummy and perfectly groomed. Would definitely go back again. Boynton Beach Petsmart. |

| Posted by: Barbara Knoerl-very satisfied client! in Buffalo, NY. | Posted: May 11th, 2009 09:05AM |
| Breed: Bichon | Store: Four Paws 825-5345 |
I took my dog to this place for a full grooming,and it only cost me 29.00 for everything, the girl did a great job and my dog wasn't shaved bald like most places have done and I also got my dog back in 2 hrs,not an all day ordeal like the last place.
This lady shows dogs so I think she knows what she is doing,she only takes a few dogs a day and it was so quiet you never knew she had dogs there-I recommend her to everyone now |

My springer is made of rubber and springs and STILL manages to come out of there looking great. She LOVES our gal, get\'s so excited when we pull in front of the house. She is certified and her motto, \"Pets are Family\" and she treats each and every one of them in her care as if they were her own babies. I LOVE her! |

| nails cut too short and hurt dog |
| Amount: $50.00 |
| Posted by: G Davis in Centreville, MD. | Posted: July 20th, 2009 06:07AM |
| Breed: carian terrier | Store: N/A |
| My dog is almost 8 and not one groome ever said they had problems with the nails. Not this groomer said she cut too short one day, an accident and not my dog wants to bite her when she goes near her nails. I have to take the to the vest for 2 people to hold her to get her nails cut for an aditional $28.00 ! The groomer should deduct the cost of the nails if they will no longer do them. Her hair cut looks wonderful though. |

| Way to pricey!! |
| Amount: $95.00 |
| Posted by: AmandaW in Rock Springs, WY. | Posted: July 21st, 2009 09:07AM |
| Breed: Shepperd/lab mix | Store: |
| I took my dog in for grooming, she is a Shepperd lab mix, she doesn\'t have long hair and didn\'t need it cut, just washed and brushed really good. I had her nails clipped, and the lady said she would clean her ears and express anal glands, but didn\'t tell me that was extra, so I assumed it was included in the price, by the time all was said and done i went to pick up my dog, and it was $95!!! Way way to much. i guess thats what I get for living in rural Wyoming with not many grooming options. |

| Breed: Havanese | Store: Barbara's |
| Nice groom! I had a Teddy Bear Cut, so I still had some of the length to my pup. I will be doing my own grooming from now on, just because I love to groom and scissor. I am mainly going to let the pup's hair grow out a little longer, then I will maintain it from there. |

| Breed: Bichon | Store: The Pet Groomer |
| I called and got an appointment with this lady groomer and was concerned with the fact that she wasn\'t that well known, but after the groom I was so happy with her work. You can tell when someone loves animals and treats them like you do. I will always go back here. |

| Amount: $78.00 |
| Posted by: Pampering my pet for years in Ada/Rockford area, MI. | Posted: November 1st, 2009 09:11AM |
| Breed: Old English Sheepdog | Store: open to board clients only |
| If your pet is social or senior this is the way to go! Find a place that doesn't charge extra for daycare. When young, she was line groomed etc and it became tedious for her. This place she got to take breaks and such so she was happy to come. Now that she's old, I actually have them bring her coat a bit short. She is old and tires standing. The breaks and loving and massages make this her favorite place to be other than home. Groomer is i trainer too so she knows the dogs. You can get great care at a reasonable price. Shop around for a gem and good luck! |

| Breed: Shih-tzu | Store: Peiffer Paws Pet Grooming |
| I had my dog groomed here and it was the best grooming job I have ever had done by a groomer. A lot of groomers don't know how to groom. But this one does and she is very reasonably and not far from Cedar RaPIDS. less than 10 minutes. |

| Breed: Miniautre Schnauzer | Store: Pawfection Dog Grooming |
| This is a small shop in Spencer, WI. The women there are wonderful, the prices are great and the care and look of my dog was wonderful. The owner only grooms three dogs a day and so she only has one dog there at a time that she gives full attention to. I will be a continued customer and will refer any dog owner I know to her. It is called Pawfection Dog Grooming 715-207-1887 |

| Dog Grooming |
| Amount: $20.00 |
| Posted by: Prettypawz dog grooming in Bear, DE. | Posted: November 16th, 2009 12:11PM |
| Breed: all breeds | Store: home |
| I actually groom dogs out of my house and I do it based on how long it takes me. $20 for the 1st hour and $5 for each half hour after that. I also schedule appointments every 1 1/2 hours throughout the day so the dogs are not stuck at my house all day. I call the owners 20 minutes before I think I will be done so they can head back to get their dogs |

| Breed: Teddy Bear | Store: Petco - Wausau, WI |

| Cat Grooming |
| Amount: $86.00 |
| Posted by: Anne in Grapevine, TX in Argyle, TX. | Posted: January 7th, 2010 11:01PM |
| Breed: Persian | Store: Animal Attraction Grooming |
| I love my Persian but the mats got out of hand. I called around to the different grooming shops in the Dallas area. I couldn't believe that the groomers either didn't groom cats or wouldn't take her without being tranquilized. By chance, I found a CFA Persian show exhibitor that owned a cattery, a stress free grooming environment, and loved cats. I highly recommend her services to anyone that has concerns about the treatment of their feline. She's well worth the drive. |

| Tip To Groomers |
| Amount: $0.00 |
| Posted by: a user in Fort Wayne, IN. | Posted: January 9th, 2010 08:01AM |
| Breed: Giant Schnauzer | Store: n/a |
I resent that a tip is expected by groomers ! A service is priced with a profit margin included. A tip should only be given when the customer thinks that the services were above normal expectancies. The comment of a groomer saying that she works hard and customers don’t know how stressful and laborious it is should not own a pet if they cant afford the tip is simply an entitled immature whiney spoiled brat and should get another job (not in the service department), or price the service so she can make a reasonable profit. This only shows bad PR for the business owner.
Most of those customers have a job were they do not receive tips, and make enough to sustain their normal day-to-day activities and are loving pet owners that should not be denied having a pet, because one immature pet groomer wants her tip!
BTW I groom my own dog, not because I’m cheap, but because I LOVE grooming all our family members dogs for FREE!!! |
