  Top Dog Professional Grooming and Dog Wash

  Left our dog bleeding with open razor cuts in 5 different areas without letting us kids now. Dog went into depression. Heart breaking, and the worst part is that the owners would not even acknowledge it! STAY AWAY

  ANOTHER DOG DAY

  I lost my dog a year ago. I probably had grooming. My dog used to go there once a week for probably 10 years. They also did grooming. As she got older she couldn’t play with the puppies anymore, it was just too much for her, so I stopped taking her for the doggie daycare, but she still went for grooming. The service was good. They did good. Their prices were good. She had not gone for the daycare for 4 years.

  Purple Paw Grooming Shoppe

  Kristen is a very skilled professional whose love of animals is obvious from the moment you walk into her shop. She was very observant regarding my cat's overall health, and gave this relatively new cat owner a few tips regarding grooming and feeding. My cat was in great hands, and I will not hesitate to use her services again. Also, very reasonably priced!

  PRECIOUS PETS

  The grooming was excellent - coats looked and smelled great, nails trimmed, and the golden's coat was nicely shaped. All in all, it was a very satisfactory result.

  SUNTAR'S KENNELS

  My husband and I adopted a dog last week.  We have been attempting to keep this highly energetic bundle of joy's stress level to a minimum but he needed a bath desperately.  We thought it over and decided that we needed to get him acclimated to new places and understand that we will be back to get him.  It was also decided that to attempt to give this 55 pound baby a bath in our home might be as stressful on us as it would be for him.  Let's use professionals. I checked the websites of many groomers and wasn't overly enthused.  We had just had our first veterinary visit the day before and we did not feel any "warm and fuzzes" from the vet.  I don't like that.  If you are working with animals, you need to show that you love them. We will not be using the vet again and I wanted to ensure that the groomer was going to be a positive experience for one of us, anyhow. I basically interviewed the groomers over the phone.  Lucky for me, I reached Nadia, the owner of Suntar's Kennels.  Oh my gosh... I felt how positive this place is and her passion for animals over the phone.  We spoke for quite a long time about dog adoptions and she made a great statement about dog adoptions.  (She also has an adopted family member).  I told her about our experience at the dog shelter and how we never intended to go to the shelter on the day that we did.  We were going for a car wash!  Seriously!  We ended up at the Kennebunk Animal Shelter instead - but that is another long story. So we found our "Max" at the shelter and I explained how the dog reacted to us.  Nadia said that she believed our animals should come to us.  Our fellow came into our lives at the time he was meant to.  Our dogs (and cats, etc) will come into our lives and not the other way around.  Perhaps I am not explaining this as well as she, but she certainly has a spiritual connection.  I felt her passion and knew instantly that I hit on the right place. She made me feel at ease on the phone and I was able to bring Max in the next morning.  Nadia was on her day off but we got to meet the staff.  My husband was even more stressed out than the dog!!  By the time we drove off, he knew that we had made the right choice. The staff met us with smiles and showed immediate interest in our energetic 55 lb. boy.  They were curious as to his breed (who knows what that is!) and they are very familiar with shelter dogs personalities.  Basically, they showed immediate interest in Max and made him feel at home, too.   A couple of hours later, Angela, the groomer called me.  (Sorry if I got your name wrong but the entire staff is fantastic!)  She informed me that Max did great and he was ready.  Angela met me when i arrived and told me about Max's skin condition (dry skin) and offered solutions that might help.  She spent time with me and explained the differences of foods, etc.  We think his condition has been caused by a lot of stress as he was from Georgia and Paws Across America had transported him here to Maine.  Poor baby! Angela was very kind and suggested that we wait before changing his diet as he has been through so much within the last month or so. So we will wait and probably begin him on the diet she suggested.  We think a raw diet might just be the answer to get his coat back to normal but we can't rush it. I can guarantee that Max will be returning to Suntar's Kennels for his baths, and whatever else he might need in the future.  There is a great mix of staff there and you just feel their love for animals from the first time you meet them.

  PAW-ZN-AROUND

  When we picked up Max, he had exactly the cut we had asked for.  With shorter hair we could see his face and body language, and his curls had become little ringlets.  The best compliment of their work was made by our eleven year old neighbor, Kyle, when he saw Max, He declared, "Hey, Max has a great new haircut!" There are strong opinions in the dog grooming world, Max has reappeared as an imitation poodle on more than one occasion.  We really appreciated that the Paw-Zn-Around groomers followed our instruction to a "T" and it suits him perfectly.

  DESIGNS IN FUR

  Excellent service when Karen Mooney owned GADCO Designs in Fur. She had to sell the company a few years ago now and we miss her and the girls!!! Have not found anyone in the area in a few years except one person and she is no longer working in the field due to the economy and down sizing at 2 different places we followed her to. She now works in a new job field all together.
