    Here's what 6 hours gets you at For Paws Salon
    Briana S.

    TLDR: After 6 hours, my cat left panting, stressed out and only with a haircut to his back. I will not be returning and would urge anyone looking to get a haircut for their cat to look elsewhere. Gucci, my long hair Maine Coon cat, needed a haircut so I made an appointment at For Paws on State St. at 8:30 am. When I arrived, there were two small dogs barking uncontrollably. The attendant picked one up and assured me not to worry because "they were her dogs". When she put down the dog in her arms, the two dogs went at each other which broke out in a full-on dog fight. Feeling very uncomfortable, I felt hesitant to leave Gucci at For Paws but figured this wasn't the norm since they have decent reviews online. The attendant told me that he would be done by noon, which seemed to be more than enough time since any other grooming appt has taken 2 hours or less. Additionally, she told me the total would be $100 after a $15 off coupon. Noon comes and goes and I don't hear anything so I give For Paws a call. The attendant sounds flustered and tells me she needs to give a few dogs baths before she finishes Gucci's haircut, which upsets me further but I tell her ok and she gives me a timeline of 2 pm. 2 pm comes and goes and I hear nothing so I decided it's been far too long and I'm going to pick up Gucci. I get there and she tells me that she still needs to finish his legs. In reality, only his back has been cut and the rest of his body is still incomplete. The haircut on his back is extremely choppy and looks as if a child gave my cat a haircut (photo attached). The attendant assured me that the owner would be giving me a call, which never happened. Long story short, I will not be returning. My poor Gucci left extremely stressed out and with a horrible haircut.

    I was a bit weary taking my Pug into a groomer because he does not do well when trying to brush his teeth or trimming his nails, but For Paws did such a great job with him!! They gave him a beautiful haircut and trimmed his nails. He smelled soooo good when I got him back!! He was also as soft as a Sherpa blanket. You could really tell they care about the animals that come into their salon. The price is relatively affordable and well worth the little extra for super quality service. Thanks For Paws!! Would recommend!! P.S. I hear their de-skunk service works very well!!

    I was very hesitant to use For Paws due to their pretty horrible reviews below. My husband dropped off our pup Winnie so obviously as a woman I sent him with specific instructions and photo's for reference to give to the groomers upon drop off. The first appointment was amazing! The girl that works there does an awesome job! The second appointment was a disaster. The owner groomed her and it was TERRIBLE and she came back acting submissive and sat in the corner. Ask for the young girl to handle your pup. Not the owner!!!

    This is the 2nd time I've left this review. The 1st one never posted or was somehow deleted. My 11 lb MinPin was to have a bath, blow dry nails trimmed and teeth brushed. Appointment was at 9:40 A.M. I was told it could take 1 1/2 hours. I never received a call so I returned at 11:10 and was told that her nails still needed to be trimmed. Her teeth looked the same so not sure that was done. Wash & blow dry $45. Teeth brushing $10. Could not pay without leaving a tip. Will never go back even they owe the nail trimming.

    Quaint little place!

    This place is great, although more expensive than your local chain pet store. I went here after PetCo wouldn't grind my dog's nails because he "didn't want to sit on the table." It's not that he didn't want to, it's that he is newly adopted from being a stray and doesn't yet know his commands so telling him to jump up was not going to work, which I explained to the woman but alas... So we came here as a last Hail Mary attempt around 11am on Friday and they took him right away. They were only able to do some light grinding because he didn't like it too much and no one wanted him to have a bad first experience, but they got the nails down from their dagger-like state and I am so grateful. Definitely worth the $20 for a happy dog and (somewhat) still intact screen door.
