Diamond Dog Grooming & Training

I absolutely LOVE Gail but unfortunately she has the NASTIEST LADY at the desk to greet her customers and animals! SHE IS MISERABLE both on the phone and in person. I never had a problem with my shitzu going with Gail and coming back happy but THIS LADY… my dog cried bloody murder before and came home PISSED at the world… not a good feeling leaving your dog with a such a nasty person. I am seriously considering changing groomers and if Gail does not stop this lady from engaging with her customers… I am sure a lot of others will to. Shame.

We brought our little Shih-​Tzu/​Bichon mix puppy to Diamond Dog Grooming this past weekend for the first time for her first «real» haircut. We were nervous to clip her because she was REALLY fluffy and adorable and we knew this would be a huge change. Honestly, when we first saw her, we were a little like «uhhhh???» After the initial shock wore off (about a day and a half later.), we LOVE her haircut. She looks absolutely adorable and Gail (I’m guessing here) did exactly what we asked (not exactly a standard clip) her to do. She was very sweet and attentive to Zoey. The price was good too, although we were told it might go up as she grows (she’s 5.5 months now). The only minor complaint that we had was that she smells like patchouli, which we really don’t like. We didn’t say anything about leaving her unscented though, so that’s just something for us to know for next time! Also, the skin on her tummy is dry now… not sure if she reacted to the shampoo or maybe the clippers, since this was her first time experiencing them??? Anyway, the important thing with this kind of dog is that the haircut looks great, her hair seems really healthy and SOFT and she seemed happy enough when we picked her up!

Great groomer! Gail, the owner, met with me before taking our smallest family member in. She was super nice and asked good questions for how I wanted our shih tzu cut. The timeline for when the grooming would be complete was right on, which is a nice change from our previous groomer. The cut itself, a short trim, came out great! The salon is small and clean and prices are in line with other groomers in the area.

Love this place. I am a little obsessive about my dog, Francine, and totally trust her with this groomer. The owner is a former veterinary nurse and was recommended by our vet.
They do their best to squeeze us in if we need a last-​minute appointment and Francine comes out buffed, fluffed and happy. They take really good care of her and I never worry about her while she’s there.
They also provide doggie daycare and training services, although we haven’t used them.
The only con is that there’s no trash can outside so when the pooch invariably takes a huge crap before getting in the car, I have to carry it home with me. Gross.
Prices are reasonable and they take checks, which is better than cash only. I can’t recommend this place highly enough.
