Bark Avenue has been a godsend! I have a 3yr old Afghan Hound who doesn't like to be groomed. We have experienced everything from HORRIBLE hair cuts, to tranquilizers, to groomers who were simply afraid of the dog. The groomer at Bark Avenue is patient, attentive and gives me feedback on grooming needs and how she did during her grooming session.When I pick her up she is beautiful! Her coat is nicely trimmed and manageable for a dog who hates to be brushed. After our first visit she trusted the groomer to trim her face. Maxx looks regal and walks with such grace after groomed. You would never guess she's a wild and crazy girl who chases everything that moves. She's under the deck, in the mud and runs through every flower bed.I wish she was the aloof aristocrat often seen in this breed but she's NOT. So let her play as hard as she likes and with a regular grooming schedule at Bark Ave. we have a beautiful Afghan Hound. Thanks Bark Ave.
