I had a great experience at Smog Dogs with the new owner! He was extremely professional, friendly, and genuinely kind from start to finish. What stood out most was his willingness to work with my busy work schedule, even though he closes at 5 PM. The process was quick and efficient . I was in and out in no time. It's clear that the new owner cares about providing excellent customer service and making the experience as convenient as possible for his customers. I highly recommend Smog Dogs to anyone needing a smog check. Thank you for the outstanding service! read more

There's a reason why Smog Dogs is rated 5 stars with over 107+ reviews (see photo). Every couple of years you need to get your car smogged. It's one of those things you just need to get done.

I needed to get my car smogged today and I remember seeing Ricardo two years ago and how easy everything was. So it was a no-brainer for me to call him up! He's kind, honest, and great to talk to. When it's time for your next smog, call Smog Dogs. Ricardo will take care of you and your car. Well worth the 17 minute wait! read more

I've been coming here for about 3 years now and have brought in 4 different vehicles. The service has always been fast, professional, and honest. One thing I really appreciate is that even though they've gotten much busier over the years, they still get me in and out quickly. They remember their customers and always treat me with respect. When I first started coming here, they only offered smog inspections. Now they also offer registration services, which has saved me trips to the DMV and a lot of time. It's hard to find businesses that continue to provide great customer service as they grow, but that's exactly what they've done. I highly recommend them for smog and registration services. read more
