Boy did she stink and her long fur was a disaster! We hired Hannah from Tidy Toe Beans and the results are beautiful. I wish I could post pictures, Moxie is a different dog! Hannah did a Giant Schnauzer breed specific cut, which she specializes in, then Moxie got the full spa treatment. I sent pictures to my friend and even she can't believe how shiny and immaculately groomed her dog is, the cut is just gorgeous! And the best part for Moxie, she is no longer chewing her paws, Hannah used a salve on her feet that stopped the itching and allergen free shampoo and conditioner, and she is no longer scratching her ears either. Moxie is a giant handful for anyone, but Hannah took it all in stride and we're so pleased with the results (and NO stinky dog smell, even over a week later).

I can't say enough great words about McOsker Kennels…read more We are dog owners and dog fanciers for more than 50 years. When I discover a business that I have strong feelings about, good or bad, I write about them, with the hope that my review will help other potential customers. McOsker Kennels is a business that we have 100% trust and confidence in, and that I enthusiastically recommend to other dog owners. Our dog's boarding and grooming experience at McOsker Kennels has been outstanding. The facilities are impressive, the kennel is immaculate, and the staff are outstanding. The owner is a consummate professional, hand's on, on-premises owner. On this visit, we had our dog groomed, and the groomer did an outstanding job. Chelsea, at the front desk is a dedicated, caring, hands on staff-person, who knows everything that goes on at the kennel, and how your dogs did during their boarding. McOsker Kennels is our GO-TO kennel for outstanding boarding. We TRUST our dogs there, and our dogs enjoy their time at McOsker Kennels.

Yesterday I took my two stubborn huskies to The Merrimack Doggie Spaw for the first time, I was…read morerefer by a friend to go here because I was in search of a crate free groomer. Kodiak and Maya absolutely hate bath time, we typically only bring them to a groomer in the spring to speed up the grooming process and just bathe them at home the rest of the year when they're just dirty and need baths! So needless to say, they're a bit difficult to handle when it comes to grooming... BUT The Merrimack Doggie Spaw was amazing! My dogs literally look the best I've ever seen them after a grooming, theres virtually no shedding left to be done (which anyone that owns a husky knows how rare that is this time of year)! Dallys was awesome, there were some issues with my dogs acting up (Maya having a melt down in her play pen while Kodiak got a bath and Kodiak trying to escape the bath) and she handled it great! I loved that she didn't lecture me on their behavior like some people have, and recognized that it's due to stress, and came up with a plan on how we'll handle their grooming next time to save one of them from hurting themselves and to make her job easier! So if you want you're dog to look amazing and get exceptional service, definitely book a "spaw" day at The Merrimack Doggie Spaw!

The owner/trainer of this facility is not a good person. Don't take your dogs here…read more We tried to take our 5 mo old puppy to a class here. He is a big puppy, around 43 lbs when we brought him. We had our puppy for a month at this point and know that he always barks at new dogs until he gets to smell them. He has never shown any sign of aggression (growl, snarl, showing his teeth, etc.) and is actually very submissive when playing with other dogs. When our pup saw the other dogs for the class, he barked at each of them to say hello and couldn't wait to play. When we met the trainer, our puppy barked to say hello (again, this is normal behavior for him, just a vocal dog). We were turned away at the door because our pup was too big, too "dominant", and too "aggressive". Without even working with our dog, he immediately said we need to get bitter apple spray and a pronged collar for him. To top it off, he said "your dog has a chemical imbalance in his brain". Incredible rude and uncalled for given that we just met him and he doesn't know us or our dog. I tried contacting the facility after this to get my deposit back and they have not responded to any of my calls or emails. This place is just not run by kind or honest people. There are better training facilities. We are now working with a trainer who took the time to meet our dog and understand him. She loves our puppy and commonly "jokes" about how he's so smart and sweet she wants to take him home. He's a wonderful, very trainable, very sweet boy. If you are looking for positive reinforcement training, this is not the place to go. If you have a big dog, this is not the place to go. If you value the trainer caring about your dog, this is not the place to go. Just don't go here.
