Wendy’s Pampered Pets

I have been taking my dogs to Wendy for 25 years — two Lhasa Apsos, a Shih Tzu and a two Pembroke Welsh Corgis. Wendy and her staff always do a terrific job at a reasonable price. Wendy is an accomplished dog breeder, trainer and groomer. Obviously, she loves all animals, but some are easier to groom and deal with than others. If your dog is in bad shape and very matted, please choose to have your pet shaved down– fur will grow back. Do not expect Wendy or any other groomer to put your pet through the pain and discomfort of a full comb-​out and grooming. In their elder years, both of my Lhasas had to wear fine net muzzles when visiting Wendy or their veterinarian!

Took my Goldendoodle to Wendy’s for a grooming mid August. We recently moved to the area and needed a new groomer, as we have only taken our dog to one person, and after some research I decided to try Wendy’s. On the phone and in person they were very pleasant and looked busy, and they gave me a lengthy consultation, so I felt pretty good about the situation.
I asked her to do «poodle paws» on my golden doodle, which means you taper in the paws very short instead of leaving them shaggy (which looks a little ridiculous at first but anyone with a dog who has shaggy paws would know why this makes things a little easier!) I even showed her pictures of what my previous groomer had done as a reference.
When I went to pick her up everything looked pretty good except for the fact they took the paws SO SO short, they looked scary. But I thought, oh well, they will grow back and next time I would tell them not to go as short. Then when we got home I noticed my dog licking her paws and when I went to check it out I saw that they were BURNED from the clipper on all four paws and they had burned her upper lip raw as well. Her one paw was so bad that we had to wrap it for almost a week and put wound cream on it. Two weeks later and her paws are healed, but her lip is still healing. Seeing her in pain and uncomfortable for almost 2 weeks broke my heart, and I pray that this will not scar her for life every time I take her to a (DIFFERENT!) groomer.

I have been taking my cats here for years. They both have long hair that gets matted and Wendy does the best job giving them adorable lion cuts. My cats are older and can be very difficult but Wendy takes her time with them and they seem as happy as cats can be if they have to be groomed! I would recommend Wendy to anyone.

We have been taking our two large goldendoodles to Wendy’s for some time now… they do an excellent job! One of them has very curly fur, but since she’s half poodle and half golden retriever, it’s much thicker than poodle coats. They always help her look fabulous! We’ve had several groomers give them haircuts, and I think Wendy’s does the best job. The girls are always happy coming back, of course, as they have always hated haircuts and baths… but I’ve never had any concerns about their care at Wendy’s.
