All thing MAX!

Let’s talk about Max. He’s a sweet loving Aussie. He loves his two legged kid. His first trip to get groomed he was so nervous he didn’t get groomed. We have learned what makes him comfortable and confident and not only did he get a bath but let us brush all his shedding coat out and give him a fresh cut. His big sister, Holly, gave him confidence to get a bath. He watched the daycare dog while he was being groomed and loved the entertainment.

While striving for a positive experience for all pets, each dog's unique characteristics require a tailored approach.
