Both addresses I found online to the Pampered Poodles are incorrect. I followed the one in my GPS to the wrong location, found a second address online that took me back to that wrong location and then called to find out the location moved up the road. I dropped my dog off at 8 am as advised and was told she wasn't to be ready for pick up until 4 pm. 8 hours? Ok. Procedure? They're busy throughout the day. I understand. Dog grooming isn't my profession, who am I to know that this isn't standard procedure. I own a small dog, 8.2 Ibs. 9 months old. She is potty trained, however, being as small as she is she has a small bladder and within an 8 hour period one would think (especially one who has experience working with dogs) to take her out to relieve herself - she will notify you if she needs to go out. After I brought my dog home she immediately urinated outside in 3 separate locations in the grass, took an uncharacteristically large sized "number two," and not an hour later urinated on her bed - which is so uncharacteristic of her as she is potty trained and has no history of such indoor accidents. She was supposed to receive a bath and a short summer cut/shave. When I picked her up the groomer informed me of my dog's "sassy" and "poor" behavior. She has always acted fine when I leave her at the vet, friends, my parents, etc. When I dropped my dog off I informed the woman at the front desk how my dog had surgery about a month ago so she is shaved on her belly, chest, and leg. If at all possible, I wanted them to cut/shave the fur shorter and to blend as naturally as possible into these areas. When I picked up my dog the actual groomer had no knowledge of this and tried to blame her poor hair cut on these missing fur pieces. The cut was choppy, not the length I had specified upon dropping my dog off and when I brought her home she smelled exactly like the musty smell of the dog saloon (which is located in a significantly aged shopping center). I don't even think they bathed her and subsequently gave her a bath myself that night due to the lingering smell. I don't believe these groomers took my dog out to pee or poop in the 8 hours they had her in their care - which would attribute to a "sassy" attitude. I don't think they took client preference in style into heavy consideration, I don't think my preference was communicated by the woman at the front desk to the groomer, I think the entire service was overpriced for the end product my dog and I received, and most disappointingly my dog was visibly distressed and uncharacteristically standoffish and sheepish in her demeanor when I got her home and for the rest of the evening. I question the care, patience, and attitude towards the pets that are left in the hands of the groomers at the Pampered Poodles. We will not be returning to this establishment again, I have advised my friends and family against bringing their pets there and would advise all others to look elsewhere for their grooming needs. read more
