What customers said about dog anal gland expression
Bones & Bows Pet GroomingVery professional and friendly to owners and their pets. The staff knows what you need even if you are not sure! We have 2 Shih Tzu 6 mo. old puppies. They had no problem feeling right at home. Same great service every visit.
White Rock Pet GroomingOur dogs love it here- the staff is professional and kind and the dogs get the best baths and grooming care at a very affordable price! They look AND smell pretty instead of lwet dogs like when I drop them off
White Rock Pet GroomingWhite Rock Pet Grooming became my favorite groomer when I was the owner of my beautiful standard poodle. I had tried many shops around town and no one was consistent and kind like they are! Now that she has crossed that rainbow bridge, I have an Airdelle Puppy and he is getting the same incredible treatment! As long…
White Rock Pet GroomingThey do fine, and our dogs don't freak out entering, so they must handle them well. My only criticism is they do what they want, not necessarily what you ask for, but grace is given because my dogs aren't exactly easy to manage.
White Rock Pet GroomingWe love White Rock Pet Grooming and so does our dog. We feel so fortunate to find the most wonderful groomers and loving staff.
Bones & Bows Pet GroomingThey got my pup in and out quickly because I had an appointment later that day. Great job.
