I highly recommend this groomer. I bring my 50-pound Goldendoodle here, and they always do a fantastic job. To be honest, I don't brush her nearly as often as I should, but they never complain and always handle her coat with patience. They are also incredibly accommodating with my schedule, even letting me drop her…
