Puppy In Style

This guys are very good at their job! Have take my dog many times already and they always follow my requests. The price is very good for the good job they do. Normally they say it will take 2 hours but every time I have take my doggie, one hour after they call me to say he is ready, so they are pretty quick. The location looks good, always clean, just a little bit noisy because of the doggies who are there for daycare.
Over all I highly recommend this place.

They shaved off a part of my dog’s nose and didn’t even bother to tell me about it. WARNING! DO NOT Groom your pet here. They are the worst groomers I’ve ever been to. They injure your dogs and looking at the other reviews, it happens pretty often at this place. When I went to pick up my dog they were all mad at me for some reason which I did not understand, turns out that they caused a huge injury to my dog and didn’t want to be blamed so they use the tactic to be mad at me.

I search a lot of grooming shop online and I end up with puppy in style. I really like what they did for mini as her style. Recommend this place!

My Isabelle always goes here ever since she was a puppy. Have referred them to all my friends as well. :)

I have been coming here for years ever since my dogs were puppies (i have three dogs) They charge $ 35 for small dogs and $ 60 for larger dogs (i have a 40lb cocker spaniel) overall, they do a good job for the price!

Update: My pup’s corneal ulcer is melting due to bacterial activity. I cannot blame Puppy In Style for the initial damage to my dog’s eye, as it’s possible that could’ve happened separately. But as for the bacteria that entered the damage, this establishment is definitely to blame. They obviously need to sanitize their tools better. I’m swimming in vet bills due to this.

I’ve never hated myself so much before. It’s my fault I let my dog get groomed here again when I had a bad experience last time. Since I didn’t have time to drop him off, I thought letting my mom drop him off, with more specific instructions would be ok this time. but NO. I JUST CAME BACK FROM THE VET. Ever since he was picked up from this place, he hasn’t been able to fully open his left eye. His eye was pussing up so much. Turns out he’s developed a mean, deep corneal ulcer & a crazy infection. I was even told to IMMEDIATELY get a second opinion from an eye specialist because his case was really bad, I mean IS really bad. We’re suffering right now. I don’t know what was the initial irritant nor the reason for it, all I know is that we’re paying for it now.

I have been going to Puppy in style for years! They do an amazing job on my dogs. They have never come home with nips on their bodies or a bad hair do. They do a great job! Well priced and nice people! Take advantage of the hair dying. My maltese has pink ankles and pink ears, she’s the hottest dog on the block. All the other dogs want to be her.

I’m new to the area and found this groomer fairly close to my house– took my Yorkie and I was very pleased. Great service and Great price. Definitely taking him back.

I came here as my normal groomer didn’t have any availible appointments and my Roxie was in desperate need of a haircut. poor thing… So I tried these guys out and they did a great job on her. Only gripe was the shop smelled a bit of urine… might wanna shut down good after hours and clean thoroughly with bleach once a week. However, on topic and regard to the cut she came out fine. This will be my alternate shop. :o)

I normally read the negative reviews first when trying out new places, but for some reason I did not in the case of Puppy In Style (PIS). This may have been due to the fact that Charlie (poodle-​terrier mix) really needed a hair cut/​nail trimming and because there were so many glowing reviews that pushed the negative reviews to the bottom.
Regardless, here I am writing a review because I am really irked. Sure the owner guy is nice and the price was reasonable at $ 35 to groom my 15 pound little dark child. Also, appearances-​wise the groomer Julia did an overall decent job in making Charlie look nice.
However, the part that PISses me off is the fact that they nicked my dog in 3 different places and did not tell me. I mean I should have known something was off when I went to pick up Charlie and he jumped into my arms trying to get the hell out of the place. Alas, I did not notice the cuts until I began spotting blood trails on my tiled floor when we got home.
That was when on closer inspection I found that not only was there a cut on his paw, there were also cuts on his face and in his ear. Even after a week the wife and I are still applying bag balm to his injuries.
Look, don’t get me wrong, I know that accidents happen all the time at dog groomers because dogs move and jerk around unexpectedly. However, what I do not appreciate is the fact that no-​fucking-​body told me they had hurt Charlie. To many dog owners, their dogs are like their children. Imagine if a barber or hair stylist had cut a child’s ear — would that be acceptable?
I guess from now on I will have to camp out at Charlie’s new groomers instead of just dropping him off so that when he «yelps» from pain I can say what the hell!
* Oh yea, and about that report card everyone is talking about. Honestly, I could care less about a dingy ¹⁄₃ piece of paper they call a report card that says my dog has an average temperament. I’d rather you fuck the report card and provide me with a damage assessment and tell me the places where you cut my dog.
Update:
Removed the photos showing the cuts on Charlie after the owner contacted me.

I should have written this review a long time ago. I’ve been coming here for three years now and the services is consistently excellent. These guys are awesome with small dog grooming. For my little Maltese they charge $ 35 for full grooming, which includes ear cleaning, nail clipping, wash, cut, dry, and some fun socializing in their cute play area before bath time. I really like that they include a report card so you know how your dog was during grooming and whether your doggie needs teeth cleaning, etc. It’s surprisingly easy to get appointments.

I’ve been coming here for over a year now and I can still say this is THE place to go for grooming. Everyone here has been absolutely great and my dog still looks perfect when I pick him up. I could not be happier!!! No matter which groomer you get here, the look is pretty consistent. Someone new does the grooming almost every time I take my dog, and initially I was nervous about that, but he always looks exactly the same. Really great service and peace of mind!

If your dog is indifferent to manhandling, or finds enjoyment in those experiences, go ahead and bring your pooch here. If not, take my advice and look for grooming services elsewhere.
The good: I was able to make a same day appointment. They have super-​duper cute dog clothes, booties, accessories… all at decent prices. The full groom and styling was $ 45. Not bad when price compared to other groomers in a 10 mile radius. Plus, they hooked Josecito up with a slick mohawk (even a bit of hair gel to help it spike.) The shave for the most part was very well done. My dog has a tendency to skin irritations/​pimples, but they clearly maneuvered these tender spots except for one… one very, very important spot…
The bad: They nicked his balls. OK, I know, it’s got to be ridiculously hard to shave hairy balls so I’m not going to gripe. But Jose was not the same after we brought him home. For the life of me I could not possibly figure out what happened in that backroom, but he was going on three straight days of acting freaked. It was like something kept biting him on his butt… he’d be laying down sleeping and out of nowhere leap up into the air, and he’d constantly try to scratch or lick that area. At first we thought it was the irritation of the short hair on his balls. That is until he started pooping blood. After a rush visit to the vet, we were told that he was most likely traumatized at the grooming. The symptoms he was exhibiting were from his severe stress. Unfortunately, there is no way to know what really happened, but it’s heart wrenching seeing our pup in this condition.
I can understand that there are 5 star reviews on here since I’m sure the docile dogs allow the groomers to flip, slather, and shave them with no resistance. But my pup is precious and sensitive… we found the «grooming report» in our receipts last night and saw the notation that Jose was «hard to manage.» He’s a Pekingese… not a Rottweiler. It takes so little effort to «manage» something that is the size of a football, so I can see no valid reason for him to be traumatized like he is now. I’m super bummed that I subjected my dog to this experience and want those of you who are considering this place to just be aware. :(

I just dropped her off here. She was here a couple months ago and I really liked their service. My maltese isn’t very hard to groom as she just stands here with her tail between her legs, but I get lazy. Well you don’t want to hear about my experience but just the prices right?
$ 35 for grooming (ears, toe nails, body, and face), comes with bows
$ 5 additional if you want their teeth cleaned
They close at 6:30, and have a small yet sufficient parking lot around the back in the alley.

My puppy’s a supermodel.
At least this is how I felt when I received these pictures of her after her grooming today.
Photo session when she’s looking her best?
SMART.
Sending me a picture of her?
GENIUS!
Great service…

The owner Jay is super friendly. They offer grooming and dog sitting (daily or prepaid monthly. I’ve seen them quarantine any dogs who start humping or bothering the general pupulation. It’s nice to know that your pup won’t be stuck in a cage/​kennel alone until grooming. I like to drop my baby off in the morning so she can socialize and pick her up at closing. They charge $ 35 grooming + $ 5 teeth brushing for my Maltese and provide a report card with her weight, dental hygiene, and behavior.

Shaved a part of my dogs ear off he’s in so much pain he can’t open his eyes and squints! On my way to the hospital!!! So pissed fuqing unbelievable!!!

I am a fan of Puppy In Style.
I feel like I can trust the groomers there, who remember my dog’s name. My dog’s fur is always super soft when she’s through with everything. She
also smells and feels very clean. And yes, they do put the bows on her ears.
The groomers always call me earlier than the estimated time for pick-​up. Recently, I brought my dog in on a Saturday @ 2:30. They said come by at 5:30, but I got call from them @ 4:30 saying she was ready.
I think it’s always by appointment, or maybe it’s just Saturdays (when they’re busy).

I love this place. I would say they’re the nicest groomers in town. I’ve brought my dogs here for a couple of years and I know that they’re going to get the best of care while they are there. If they notice anything wrong with the dog, they will even give you a note telling you what they noticed (i.e. plaque buildup, irritated ears, etc).
The owner is super nice and so are the groomers. I love that my dog smells super great after she comes out and stays that way for more than a week! The only bad thing is that if you don’t know where they are, it’s kinda hard to find their parking lot. And the parking lot is small.

I’m a picky, spoiled, opinionated person. So it took me a long long time to find the right groomers for my dog. I’ve heard of this place as a store where they sell cool items for your puppy friends. So I went to check it out and found that they are also groomers and doggy day care. When I walked in there was a huge play pen with whole bunch of doggies playing with each other. I thought that was cool. Some of them were there for day care and some were waiting to be groomed. They also had clear plastic cages (which I’m more used to at the groomers), but none of the dogs were in there. They were all roaming free. I loved that much better than having my dog in a cage for hours waiting to be groomed and putting them back into a cage where dirty dogs once were. They will put them in the cage, if you ask them to or if your dog is a threat to other dogs.
So about the grooming. They charge $ 30 or $ 35 for my maltese’s puppy cut. I’m used to paying around $ 50, so I decided to give it a try. They also brush your dogs teeth for extra $ 5. AWESOME!
I don’t like my dog hair being shaved, and the groomer I used to take it to, would never listen to what I want or how short I wanted it. She always told me to shave him if I wanted it short. But Puppy In Style is totally different! They listen, they suggest, they are super duper dog friendly people! people friendly too! The groomer asked how I wanted the cut and I told her exactly. She even demonstrated by cutting my dog’s butt a little bit to see if that’s how short I wanted it. and it was PERFECT! My dog is always ready when promised and when they can, they give some priority if you don’t have much time. I live on the Westside, so trying to drop off my dog and pick him up another 2 hours later is a waste of time. And at the end, they give you your dog’s little report card about what they did, and how your dog did and they always write something sweet on there about your dog.
The owner and the groomers are one of the sweetest people I have met.
Take your dog here. It’s a lil dog heaven for a price you pay to get a ugly cut at Petco. Your dog will be in good hands. And your dog will come out of Puppy In Style lookin (and smelling) like a million bucks!!!
*TIP: They like to put bows and flowers on your dog. If you don’t want it, you can tell them in advance. Or you can always see your dog with bows in his/​her hair, snap a picture and take it off afterwards… hahaha
