Canine Design

My wife and I currently live in New Haven and have in the past utilized a couple different dog groomers for our double doodle Wally. After not feeling great after picking up our newly groomed pup we decided to try out Canine Design in Clinton after planning a trip down to the outlet mall. After that first visit we both agreed that this was head and shoulders above any other groomers we had utilized and felt very comfortable with bringing our pup here. He was always very well taken care of and happy upon pickup, not to mention clean and groomed! Now almost a year and a half later we now have two double doodles and frequent Canine Design every few months. Both dogs have had zero issues there and the staff is very attentive and caring during every visit.
I would recommend Canine Design to anyone looking to get their pups groomed and will continue to visit as long as we are in Connecticut.

Great place, great owner. Recently had my babies groomed. They look great. Haircuts are exactly what I wanted. Place is extremely clean, friendly and the prices are very reasonable. Will definitely be back. Thanks Cindy!

Wonderful place! The prices are good and the service was great! My 8 month old puppy was a little nervous but the owner was wonderful with him and called me as soon as she was done! Plus I called to see if I could get him in last minute and was able to squeeze us in. I will definitely be going back!

We have an Australian Shepherd who is a working dog that gets really dirty taking care of our cows, goats and chickens. I called on a Monday, got an appointment for Wed at 9AM. I showed up a few minutes early and drop off was a breeze.
I received a call at 1:30 that Nash was ready and went to grab him. He looked gorgeous! A week later and he is still looking great and feeling great. This is my new go to groomer. Fantastic service, great setup and awesome communication.

I am a regular visitor to CT and I needed a dog groomer ASAP so my pooch wouldn’t stick up my mother’s house. I called many groomers and had trouble getting an appointment within the next two to three weeks! I called Canine Design and the owner, Cindy, answered even though shop was closed that day (she had shop calls forwarded to her cell). I was able to get a next day appointment. My dog, an American foxhound, is a rescue and he gets very scared and subsequently aggressive during grooming – the nail trimming really freaks him out, as does getting into tubs or showers. Cindy did a wonderful job. She is calm and professional, and my dog looks and smells fantastic. I will definitely come back when I am in town again. I highly recommend this groomer.
