Karissa Chow, Studio C sPaw Owner/Certified Dog Groomer has been perfecting her skills with scissors as a licensed trade Hairstylist since 1996. After many years of working in Toronto, to then owning her own Hair Salon here in Lucknow she was in need of a change. Karissa stepped away from Hairstyling for a few years but as of November 2021 she reopened her doors to Studio C "sPaw". Why is Pet Groo
ming so expensive? Pet Grooming is labour intensive! Your groomer lifts, bends, kneels and stands for hours. While often pulling hair out of their eyes & skin, all while trying to give your pup that perfect cut you asked for. Pet Grooming is a dirty job! Your groomer sometimes gets bit, scratched up, peed or pooped on. Pet Grooming is health care and maintenance for your pet! Your groomer is knowledgable on how to maintain skin and coat health while having an eye for identifying possible skin infections, diseases and more that can require immediate Vet attention. Pet Grooming is an art! Your groomer has a trained eye for shaping, blending, thinning and accessorizing your pet in all angles from ears to toes that may take hours to complete while developing fast but precise sc******ng skills that are stressful on their hands and wrist. Working with animals is unpredictable! Your groomer probably does more for your pet's health in the 2-4 hours they have them, than you do on the daily! (this is an assumption based on the crazy conditions we see so many pet's come into the sPaw with)
Make sure to brush your pet's hair often and check your work with a metal comb, brush their teeth, use the right products for their skin type, feed them healthy food & provide supplements! Please don't complain about pricing ;)
