The Grooming Your Dog Would Choose, If The Choosing Were Up To Them.
A grooming club for dogs.
WE KNOW HOW THAT SOUNDS, BUT THERE'S A REAL REASON WE BUILT IT.
Here's the part that nobody says out loud.
Grooming day is one of the most stressful days in your dog's week. You drop them somewhere unfamiliar, hand them to someone they've never met, and drive away feeling a little guilty. For years the industry built rooms that suited the salon, not the dog, and quietly decided that was fine. We didn't. So we started from the opposite end, with the dog in front of us and the person who loves them.

Your dog should have a person.
One groomer who's actually theirs, the same hands at every visit, who learns their name, their coat and exactly how they feel about the dryer. The way you have a hairdresser you trust.
And then there's the cage. We don't have one, and we never will. A dog who's already nervous shouldn't spend their day in a box, so here they don't. They stay with their person, start to finish, in a room with warm light and space to breathe instead of a fluorescent hum and a production line.
None of it is complicated. It has simply, rarely, been done properly.
The coffee is for you. The puppachino is for them. Hospitality-led, welfare-driven grooming for everyone to enjoy.
Always one-on-one.
We text when they're ready.
No waiting room. No watching the clock.
Drop them, get on with your day,
and come back to a dog who is having
a better morning than you!
The coffee is for you. On us!
Properly made, not a pod.
The kind you'd turn up early for.
The puppachino is for them.
A small, faintly ridiculous cup of their own.
They've come to excpect it.
We're happy to oblige.

Your dog will be known here. That's the whole job.
I spent years building grooming salons in the UK, and kept running into the same thing: a real craft treated like a hobby. So I built places that took it seriously instead, for the dogs, the people who love them and the groomers themselves. They worked.
Shaggy is me bringing that to Austin, and meaning every word of it. Your dog will be known here. That's the whole job.

-
This summer, in Bryker Woods. The list will be the first to know.
-
West 35th Street in Bryker Woods, right across from Tiny's and Valentine's. There's plenty of parking, coffee and shops across the street, and there's us. A well-organized corner.
-
All of them. Every size, coat, and temperament, including the nervous ones, who tend to do especially well here.
-
Genuinely. Not the kind that's claimed and quietly kept. We don't own a cage.
-
No more than the other good places in town. We charge by the time a groom takes, in line with Austin's best, all pricing is very transparent and you will be able to see the pricing before we begin.
