| - Just had my cattle dog mix groomed here. Am used to going to Doggie in the Window, closer to my house and Brandon is great, so much so that he's working 3-4 wks. out. I just didn't call him soon enough, and wanted a trim for the hotter weather for my dog, since we exercise outside. I told the groomer I didn't want him shaved and she said she could taper to his tail, so to keep it longer. Right now it looks like a little shelf where his back and tail meet, not a taper as far as I can see. I know the back hair will grow out in time and all of it look better, but not at this moment. Also, don't remember exactly what was quoted on the phone as an estimate, I think around $50 for a 30 lb. dog, but I was surprised at a $65 bill, including $10 extra for nail trimming, which they asked about and I was on the fence because we run on asphalt and my dog's nails were fairly short already. The extra price wasn't quoted for the nails when I said "Yes" to the groomer's question, and as there is so much competition (I called Alta Vista and thought they were high!) just there on 7 Av., adding Wag N' Wash and then close by, maybe I'm in the minority. Obviously, I've been spoiled by Doggie in the Window!
