Love Prickly Pup!
I've been bringing my dog here since he was a puppy and ive never had a bad experience! My dog struggles being around strangers and dogs, yet this environment has allowed him to be comfortable and stress free to the point of being able to be near other dogs!! He absolutely loves going to the groomers and he always comes out looking perfect ❤️
Excellent service and friendly staff! My dog loves them and looks wonderful when they groom him.
Always a great experience, and my dogs were at ease from the very time we entered. I would highly recommend them.
First grooming for our mini schnauzer Lillie, extremely happy in every way, you have our business, you are Lillie’s groomer. Second spa day for Lillie, almost two months since her first grooming, once again a 5, fantastic job, Kenzie and associates are the best by far. Third spa day for Lillie, same quality…
My nine year old golden retriever used to be frightened when I took her to the old owner. So much so that I stopped taking her there. i thought i would try the new place and couldn't be happier. Now she goes willingly and looks beautiful. Would definitely recommend. .
Great experience. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. My dog looked great!!! Will definitely be going back
Once again they did a wonderful job grooming my 2 big boys. The care they take with my pets is truly appreciated.
They do a great job! I paid a little more than I thought at this visit but they clipped her back further.
My dogs always look really good after their visit with Prickly Pups. They clearly feel right at home when we show up for their appointment.
Service Dog Zoey isn't a huge fan of going to the groomer (or anywhere else that she's not with Dad), but Mars did a great job, and more importantly, Zoey was very comfortable with them. We 100% will return and see Mars again.
Took my pup for her 1st professional grooming session at Prickly Pup, per a friend’s recommendation. They did a fantastic job. Thank you Mars!! My pup looks so beautiful and elegant. No more home grooming for us!! We found the perfect place!!
1st time here and I am so pleased with the service and result of my dog’s grooming. My dog has severe separation anxiety and they took such good care of her. Already made our second appointment. I highly recommend.
Started bringing my dogs here after a traumatic experience with Petco. I won't bash Petco here because I'm here to praise Prickly Pup. Our first visit, I saw the care they put into the pups with soft pets and gentle kisses along with the grooming. These folks LOVE our dogs! There's usually a dog or two running…
We were very happy with the service we received for our dog. My first appt. Was unfortunately missed due to my fault. And I was surprised that the gal I talked to was very understanding and allowed me to reschedule with no penalty. So surprising in today’s world. Daisy was comfortable going in and back with the girl…
Our first time at bringing DaBoys in for grooming. We try to do the shampoo and comb. But WOW! These folks are top shelf. Manny and Sammy look, feel and smell awesome! See you in November!
Great atmosphere for our fur baby. We have back multiple times. Thank you!
My senior dog is not the easiest dog to groom and to be honest can be a bit of a pain, but they are so great with him. He’s not scared when I take him in and they are happy to see him. It’s such a relief not to worry about leaving Otis with them and he looks very dapper when I pick him up. He’s a big dog and their…
We loved the whole experience from the ease of booking, to the end result of our doodle's cut. Kenzie was very sweet and took the time with our pup to make sure he wasn't scared and got a great cut. We will absolutely be returning to them!
My dog loves going there. I would rate it excellent. Custermor for life
