We love Harbor Hound and have been taking our Samoyed here since he was a small pup. Liza does an amazing job with him, and he has not always been easy to groom, however she has an abundance of patience and good humor. Scheduling is easy, but needs to be planned well in advance, as the appointments book up quickly. The shop also has some nice higher-end accessories and snacks. Definitely recommend if you want to walk your dog in style. Convenient and quaint location on Main Street in Cold Spring Harbor. read more

Another Yelp review because I wanted to say "Thank you" for a great cut for Luck - Lucky was ready for pickup the time they advised. - While this is a stressful experience for me, they make it as stress free as possible for my pup. - ***Great cut!*** read more

Harbor Hound - Pet Groomers Near Me - Cold Spring Harbor, New York

Don't go here! They cut my dog in so many places. I didn't even want a haircut this short but after the first or second knick you would think to leave another half inch of length. Cuts on his legs, back, neck. Never coming here again this is horrible. My dog is traumatized and in pain. read more

We are very pleased with the services at Harbor Hound. Our mini-Bernedoodle is consistently groomed to perfection! The owners, Linda and Maria are always present at the premises. Katie is the groomer that we recommend. She is friendly, warm, and our puppy adores her! read more

I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am to the staff of Harbor Hound - my tiny Shichon (8 1/2 lbs) is truly my "baby". I was always afraid of leaving her with a groomer so I took on the job myself. She was never groomed to look like anything but a "homed" dog but at least I knew she was never hurt. I ne ver touched her tail because it was her true "glory" - until one day I felt it and realized that my "kindness" to her (she was very sensitive about anyone touching her tail so I never did - my husband brushed her everyday so I didn't do that - he neglected her tail for sure). I checked with my vet and asked for a recommendation and was told there was only one place they felt they could recommend and that was Harbor Hound. By this time Bailey's tail was one huge mat. I can't begin to tell you what a fantastic experience this visit was - Bailey came out looking like a show dog as opposed to her "homed" look by mommy. She was happy and cheerful and showed no sign of any distress. I'll definitely be returning to Harbor Hound and you should too. read more

I found Harbor Hound online, even though I pass it every day as I drive through Cold Spring Harbor Village. I took my cocker spaniel for grooming there 2 days ago. I know my dog, when I say he is difficult, I mean he is really difficult. They did an excellent job on him, he looks like a brand new dog! Shaved not only thick post - covid coat but years off him, he is really enjoying the new cut, so is the entire household. Thank you Harbor Hound! We will definitely be back! read more

Harber Hound is right smack in the village of Cold Spring Harbor. It is literally the size of a small room, with a separate room where they groom dogs. The main room hosts the register, clothes, collars, and other things your pup might need. It's tiny and not a place where you can wait for your dog to be groomed but it is cute. If I lived closer, I would bring my dog here. read more

I have been using Harbor Hounds for years. First took my senior dog there as he needed special care for a simple bath. They were always so kind to him and took great care. Now my mom and I both bring our Tibetan Terriers there. We do not cut their hair so their grooming can be a challenge. Each time we go (monthly) the dogs are fine going in for their baths and come out looking beautiful. Linda, Maria and staff take great care and time with everyone's dogs and I highly recommend them. Whether you have an easy or difficult dog/ grooming request- they are where you should go!!! read more

Have been going here awhile until one day they shaved all my dogs hair off for no reason, and didn't even tell me before doing it. Very upsetting to my whole family. Recommend TLC groomer or groomingdales much better groomers. read more

The Harbor Hound is conveniently located just down the road from me, but even if it was a few miles away I would drive to get my dog groomed there. They always do an amazing job and my dog loves them all. Their services are reasonably priced and I will continue to take my dog there. read more

Harbor Hounds is a small boutique shop in the heart of Cold Spring Harbor. They have a nice selection of apparel, accessories and treats. Linda and Maria are friendly, knowledgeable and most important caring and patient. I bring my miniature long haired dachshund to Harbor Hounds to be groomed. I am always confident Oscar will have a wonderful experience, and I never worry about him being stressed, or miss handled. They do a wonderful job taking care of all his tangles, matts, and nails. He always looks, and smells like a show dog when they are done grooming him. I highly recommend Harbor Hounds. read more

Great shop. Our Wheaten is a bit of a challenge and Hector has won him over! Terrific customer service, wonderful little grooming boutique.

We adopted a rescue back over the summer. He was so badly neglected and matted that the poor thing had to be shaved down to his skin at the shelter. After four months or so he finally had some hair to cut! I explained to the owners that he was a very timid, shy and nervous dog, that seemed to have been traumatized. They reassured me that they would go slow and treat him gently. They even suggested the best time to bring him in when it would be quieter. A little while later they called to say he was ready to pick up and had done very well. My dog looked amazing! The store is very clean, stocks a great variety of foods and treats, and best of all, my dog is happy to go there. It was a wonderful experience for a worried owner and a scruffy pup that had never been groomed in his life. We have continued to make a monthly grooming visit, and we are happy each time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to family and friends! read more

We've known the Wolfs for years. Been going to Harbor Hound since it opened. Great setting and great service - your dog will be happy :) Grooming is always perfect and is not a one size fits all. I highly recommend taking your hound there for some pampering. read more

Great place to bring your pet for grooming. They do a wonderful job making my dog look fantastic and really listen to special requests. They treat my dog as if she were their own pet. I never worry about her safety and that gives me great piece of mind. Nice boutique with interesting merchandise too. Highly recommended! read more

We've brought our dogs here for 3 years. Each visit got longer and longer, which after 5 hours for two small dogs, got to be too much. They are pricey, and during our last visit, the owner was shoving one of my dogs into his carrier and proceeded to zip his hair into the zipper. We won't be going back! read more
