Our longhaired mini dachshund has a lifelong terror of dog groomers, and will start whining and…read morepractically trying to jump out of her carrier as soon as we get within a block of one. And no one in the family wants to even TRY clipping her nails at home, because she gets so panicked and squirmy, we're afraid of accidentally making her bleed! But we've gone twice now to the Wizard of Pawz, and the second time, she was soooo much calmer with getting her nails trimmed! Her back was shaved 2 months ago for spinal surgery, so they did a nice job of trimming the rest of her fur shorter to help it blend in. And the shorter trim on her legs (which usually look like she's wearing fluffy 80's legwarmers!) help so that her fur isn't getting tangled/matted or full of ticks when she's out in the taller grass! The staff are so sweet and friendly there -- you can tell they just adore dogs. We will be back for sure!

I have a persnickety chihuahua and a chiweenie and Carlos was amazing with both of them. Not only…read morewas the grooming itself excellent, but when I picked them up, it was obvious my grumpy old dog really liked Carlos (and he doesn't like anyone). The shop itself is small and very clean. Also worth mentioning is that there were a half dozen dogs in the grooming area, and they were all super calm and happy, and clearly felt very comfortable with Carlos. I highly recommend Soft Paws!

In the past, Natasha did an amazing! job grooming our dog. She is a true artist…read more However, I just can't put us through her system again. Hard on humans, hard on our pet. Natasha didn't respond in a timely manner to reasonable questions - what time should we get there? What time will she be finished? I went with it this time anyway since her work is so good. After dropping our dog off at 8:30 am, I stopped in at 3 pm since I couldn't believe how long it was taking. The dog had been bathed, and there were several dogs ahead of her to be groomed. Natasha wanted to keep our dog there at least until 6pm (going on 10 hours) during which she hadn't been fed, or gotten outside. I really wish this had worked out. But no dice.

I already reviewed this business on May 2nd, also giving it a single star simply because there is…read moreno 0 or negative amount possible. Also couldn't edit that review, so here is an addendum. In addition to badly injuring my dog, it turned out that the owner didn't actually complete the grooming, not even the half of it. She only starting on my dog and wrote me a message saying that he is ready. Then she started cutting his hair and pretty soon penetrated his skin. When I came, I couldn't really thoroughly inspect the result as all my focus was on his wound. I did notice that the paws weren't cut the way I asked, but she told me they were good, and I didn't feel like arguing because, again, my focus was on his wound and his condition. That was Saturday April 16. After we lived through the weekend that included a vet ER visit, and the next week that included an expensive vet visit, and he finally started feeling better, I was finally able to see that the owner DID NOT DO even half of the grooming. She still charged me for the grooming. That was AFTER she injured him. So, she effectively took advantage of my being focused on his condition and not on his grooming. She was literally charging my credit card while I was holding a bunch of paper towel on his wound trying to stop his bleeding.
