Deon has been grooming my Bichon Frise, Isis, for nine years, and she is the only person I would ever trust to groom Isis. Isis is always excited to see Deon and Deon treats her so kindly and takes her time grooming Isis. Its always like a friendly visit instead of her being there on business. Even though Isis' hair is awkward and not Bichon-like at all, Deon has no trouble styling her however I wish, even giving her a colored mohawk and tail tip at my request. (She went out of her way to buy dye at my request!) I don't think I could ever find a groomer I like more. Deon is the best choice!
