"I bring my toy poodles from Des Moines to Grinnell for grooming. The staff is soooo patient. (Walter does not like his feet touched. George does not trust strangers.) They do a great job and my poodles are sweet-smelling and fluffy when they come home. I work at Grinnell and they even keep them for me all day! We also love the shop."

"Hair of the Dog is a gem. The owner/operators are very patient and kind--even with my poodle (Walter) who does not like his feet touched. My other poodle, Georgie, hates strangers. While she is not thrilled to arrive at Hair of the Dog (which is how she feels about anywhere she thinks she's going to get left), she doesn't make too much of a fuss. The groomers do a great job and respect what I want. The dogs leave happy and smelling delicious. They also work with my schedule. I am so glad I found Hair of the Dog and I plan to continue coming to Grinnell from Des Moines for my poodles' grooming."

"My dad use to work with one of the employees and recommended giving them a try. Both dogs needed bathed, bums trimmed, and toe nails trimmed. Both dogs are about 150+ pounds and can easily be distracted. So a handful. I was really anxious about having this service done because they can be a lot for most people. Most Saint Bernards don't "have" to be groomed regularly either so I didn't know if it'd be worth it. They were lengthy appointments but they are both so fresh and clean. I'm overly impressed by how they feel, look, and honestly their entire mood. The employees reassured me that both dogs were great and everything went awesome. Prices were great as well. Would totally recommend for anyone in the area!"

"I love taking my dog there. She gets so excited whenever we pull up because she knows she is going to get a ton of treats. Hair of the Dog has a variety of things available and if they don't have it Cheryl is great about trying to find it or recommending something. Everyone is super friendly that works there."
