Our recent terrier/chihuahua rescue was in need of the works. My vet provided a list of recommended groomers in the area, but singled out Diamond in the Ruff. It's slightly out of our way from the East End, but after doing research some of the other groomers in the area gave me pause (paws?) - but I'd read plenty of great experiences from Diamond in the Ruff, so decided to give it a shot.
Our pup has a decent amount of separation anxiety and doesn't do well with strangers - as was evident when we first arrived. Even before I left however, he'd warmed up to some of the staff - and they later reported that he was calm throughout the cut/bath/nails. I attribute this to what I perceive as the patience and compassion of the staff - they do seem to really care about their furry clients.
The whole process took about 2.5 hours and came in at under $50 (re: the wait - it's a quick hop to Carson street for coffee and shopping). They did a great job cleaning up our boy and getting him his summer 'do. We will definitely be back!
