Unleashed Pet Grooming School

Polo, our thirteen pound rescue dog, part taco dog and part Queen Elizabeth Corgi, has his coif adjusted about every seven weeks or so at UNLEASHED and we could not be happier! You’re always greeted by the owners cat, which has her hair dyed different colors, and the cat greets EVERYONE and all animals! POLO was a bit freaked out the first few visits at a cat that would not back down and rubbed noses friendly like but he somehow suppressed his macho tendencies and greets the cat back every visit friendly like as well. I NEVER would have predicted this odd truce would ever materialize as he’s cat chasing crazy all barking and frothing at the mouth at home or as he passes them in the neighborhood when we go cruising! UNLEASHED dog grooming is a school for dog groomers and it helps keep the prices down a bit but POLO has NEVER complained about a bad style not even once! We his human pets have not either and when ever I drive by POLO always asks to stop, always. Parking is ample, place appears clean, orderly, and well organized, they only take cash or checks, always call ahead to schedule (but being the typical man I often forget) and as long as I’m there early, POLO’S never been turned away! I thought they had messed up and not given him his normal spa oatmeal for sensitive skin shampoo but the owner said she thought it was a little allergy action and suggested a little dose of children’s allergy over the counter liquid, AND HE QUIT SCRATCHING RIGHT AWAY! BRILLIANT! I’ve often thought of asking if they’d trim me up too at the same time, hey the cat and I always trade pleasantries each visit as well. Maybe some day. For Polo, who’s got a long thick coat that gets it really cut down to a number one, very short, and paw trim and pedicure, latest fashionable season trending ascot, colorful nail polish even though he’s a guys guy dog, protector of the Universe/​Galaxy, it’s $ 35, but to Polo and I, worth every penny. I suspect POLO yearns for those early morning nose rubs from the dye job cat as well. It’s a pussy thing I guess (and of course we’re powerless) and of course POLO’s a typical guy…

My yorkie was in need of a grooming, but wasn’t really sure where to take him after a couple of poor experiences at Petsmart. I discovered Unleashed through Unilocal and decided to give them a try. They do not take appointments — it is walk in only from 7am to 9am. For my dog’s breed, I was told that it would be $ 35 for the bath, grooming, ear cleaning, and nail trim. That is awesome… especially considering I paid $ 80 for the same thing and the tip at Petsmart. Do note that these prices are not listed on the website as mentioned in another review, so definitely call if you need to know the cost ahead of time. Also, they only accept cash or check.
I took him over this morning and was only a few minutes shy of 9am but was not turned away — however it seems as though coming in at pretty much the last minute meant he was behind many other dogs because it was not until about 3:30pm that I heard back saying that he was ready to be picked up. When I got him, he was calm, quiet, and happy… the opposite of when I dropped him off (barking and trying to hide behind my legs). One happy pup = one happy pup’s mama! He looked fantastic! Super soft, shiny, had every done exactly as I wanted, and was styled with a cute Thanksgiving themed bandana to boot!
I am seriously so happy with this place. Being able to get everything I want and need done for a portion of the cost of other groomers is wonderful. Bonus that I can just come in when I need to and not try to figure out an appointment with a groomer’s schedule that may not work with my schedule. The friendly groomers and the resulting happy dog of mine makes it a guarantee that I will return.

Completely thrilled! Just moved to OKC from California and needed a new groomer for my 8 month old Yorkie. Checked Unilocal and found Unleashed. Great reviews and fairly close to my new home.
Called to find out about an appt and Candy answered… very friendly and helpful. She advised no appts. just bring my furbaby in between 7am-​9am, Monday-​Saturday. Brought my Furgus this
morning (Sat) at 8am. Very clean shop! Candy was at the desk again very friendly and asked what I wanted done. I advised bath, nail trim, shave belly and overall cleanup. She had me fill out a client info card and confirmed my phone number… at 10:30 got a call my baby was ready. When I picked him up he looked great! He was calm and I could tell happy :) The best part… only $ 25! Will definitely be going back and recommending to anyone who asks!

Fantastic groomer! Reasonably priced and clearly posted prices on their website and in the salon. They do only accept cash (maybe check). As a school, I was expecting something different but they were just as put together as a professional business. The front was clean, the girl was polite and very helpful, my dog was ready before the time quoted, and they called to let me know she was ready. When I picked up my pup she was super happy (the last couple places I took her, I could visibly see she was ready to get out). I will definitely be going back… and am looking forward to getting her fur colored next time (for $ 5 — can’t beat that!).

This school is amazing! We take Tux, our schnauzer here. Unleashed has really great prices because they are a school. All you have to do is either make an appointment or come in before 11 and they will take care of you.
Jackie is the owner and cares for the animals that come in. Very sweet lady!
Last time I was in Tux got a bath and a puppy cut and it was $ 20!
This school also offers hair coloring for dogs, how fun is that? So on 4^th of July you could have your white poodle decorated like a little firecracker!

This review is written from the perspective of a former student.
Before graduation: Jackie (the owner) starts all of her students out easy, with baths and all-​over shaves, and eases them into the more intricate cuts over time. I never felt uncomfortable or rushed to move forward in the curriculum. However, I left feeling (almost) fully capable of grooming professionally. In addition to the great education, the environment at Unleashed was fantastic! Jackie, as well as her assistant, Amy, is incredibly helpful and PATIENT. I asked certain questions more than once and heard my classmates do the same, but our instructors always answered them with the most tolerant and professional demeanor.
After graduation: I’ve interviewed at two different grooming shops, and both have told me that they’ve heard wonderful things about Unleashed. These are our potential employers, and they have nothing but good things to say about this school! The job I decided to take chose me over someone who had FIVE YEARS of experience grooming… at a less sophisticated level. And, on the first day at work, the manager asked me for Jackie’s phone number so that she could call and thank her for giving me such good training!
Bottom line, if you’re willing to show up, follow instruction, and take things seriously, you’ll be on your way to being an excellent groomer by the time you graduate. I can’t say enough good things about this course.

I take my little Pekingnese dog here, Her name is Cupcake. Jackie Daniel the owner is very nice, friendly. This is a Pet grooming school but they all do an awesome job giving Cupcake a bath, grooming her, trimming her nails. She looks so good when she is done, and smells so good. Unleashed is reasonably priced also.
