I have 100 lbs. Mutts. They were really sweet with my babies, and they came out incredibly clean, smelling fresh, coat blown out, nails trimmed right. Worth the money spent.

A ROARING Good Review!

They took great care of ny 13 and 1 year old dogs. They were so creative with Ginger's haircut! They turned a mop into a lion! Thanks guys!

Happy Dog Grooming equates to a happy dog & owner! Couldn't be more pleased with the staff & grooming. I have had a difficult time finding a groomer that provided top notch service and Happy Dog meets all my requirements & expectations. Highly recommend.

The grooming portion of Happy Dog is separating from the boarding and daycare part and will be renamed The Grooming Gallery. The new location will be 133 Harpersville Road in Newport News by the end of January. The phone number is 757-696-1662. The Happy Dog will still be providing excellent daycare and boarding for your dogs and cats at the 304 Main St. location. Their number remains 594-0263. Thank you for your support of The Happy Dog and we look forward to serving you now with both businesses.

I have a 9 year old Pomeranian...

I have a 9 year old Pomeranian that needed to be shaved down and was reluctant to take him to the big box stores (Petco, Petsmart, etc) because of all the negative reviews that I had read. I figured a small business that relies solely on dog grooming and care would be a better choice and after doing some research, I settled on The Happy Dog. Patrick, his groomer, put my mind at ease after talking to him assuring me that the little dude would be treated gently and with kindness. After only 2 hours, I received a call and was told that "Freddie" was ready. I couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw him. The cut was perfect, he smelled great, and he was in a fantastic mood. He even had a little bandana around his neck. A summer shave down on a thick coated, long haired Pomeranian can't be an easy task but Patrick had Freddie looking awesome. Needless to say, my first experience with The Happy Dog Pet Grooming Salon won't be my last.

BEST BICHON CUTS EVER!!!!!

I have owned Bichons since 1992. My parents and both of my sisters have them too. I have ALWAYS had a hard time with groomers cutting them like poodles. I can't be happier with this groomer. Perfect show quality cut! I work with the public and refer this business often.

Home away from home

We just picked up our little girl after boarding for over a week at The Happy Dog. We were thrilled to see that they really cared for her like their own pet. She was sad to leave them, and really loved the staff. They even come in late at night to spend time with the dogs. They are the best in my book! We will use them again and again!

Great Pet Grooming

Julie and the staff have always been professional and caring towards my dogs. The prices are reasonable. I first starting going to Julie when my puppy was several months old. She took extra care, patience, and time with my dog's first cut. I have always received A+ service and have never noticed any hard handling of the animals.

if you have 8 hours to waste

We have been very happy in the past with the grooms at Happy Dog. Our last groom, or I should say bath was not a pleasant experience. They had our dog for 2 1/2 hours and I stopped in to see how it was going, thinking he would be about done, nope told it would be at least another 2 hours. He is a easy groom were talking a mutt. In the past he has been done in 2 -3 hours. Not 5-6 hours. I have worked in a groom shop before I know approximately how long a groom should take for different breeds. I assume the groomer is new but very poor customer service and the excuses that poured out were just that excuses. I have gotten better customer service from Petsmart in the past....

I am so sorry we disappointed you. We do shoot for a 3-4 hour time frame for our grooms, but when you are working with live animals, sometimes things get crazy. Once in a while we get behind, but always want to do our best for each pet. We would rather go slow than rush through and frighten or injure a pet. We do care about the pet's well being first, and this may have been a situation where a client before this one took longer than usual. Sometimes pets come in matted, or just hard to handle, and need more time. Some times we just have a hard day, as I am sure you can imagine working with pets. Again, so sorry to disappoint!

great!

Everytime I go to the Happy Dog Groomers, my dogs come back looking great. They do a better job than Petsmart, and they are by far cheaper (my schnauzers are $35). I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quality and cost efficient dog haircut!!!
