Bark If You’re Dirty - Phoenix

"I have an extremely anxious German shepherd who went to the Scottsdale location as a puppy, but we moved, so we stopped going there. He did alright at other places after that, but over the past couple months, he’s been extremely unwilling to get his nails done. We tried to do it at our annual vet check and they told us to bring him back sedated. We brought him back sedated and they said he still wasn’t calm enough and told us to do it all again and add melatonin. I wasn’t willing to continue drugging my dog, so I tried the Petsmart by our house. They suggested giving him “chill treats” and bringing him back because he was too anxious to do more than one paw. By the time I went to Bark If You’re Dirty, I was desperate. It’s 30min from our house, but I remembered that the Scottsdale location used to let me stay with my dog as he got his nails done, which is extremely helpful since he has separation anxiety. I had a short wait and then Shelby did my dog’s nails. I told her she could just clip them since he’s so squirmy, but she took the time to file them as well so they wouldn’t be sharp. I won’t go anywhere else after how helpful everyone here was. Well worth the 30 minute drive."

"My beautiful son Chomper looks like he just got a makeover from the Fab Five after his grooming sesh this weekend. His mood is also vastly improved without that hot tangled undercoat itching him all the time. 10/10 folks also gave me some great pointers for upkeep."

"It's not a bad place to get your dog washed. Pretty good price, and they have a buy. So many washes get one free program. My dog survived a nice bath today. She's all clean and pretty now."

"Love this place! They have awesome homemade treats that our corgi loves. They also sell cute little birthday cakes which our dog ate very excitedly. Nothing made him sick and he always enjoys eating treats, cookies or cakes from this location. We have also used some of their services such as nail clipping. The items like toys can be a little pricey but overall I continue to return to this location for nice snacks for my dog. The customer service is also very good. Our dog get so excited when he sees us come home with one of their signature brown bags!"

"I am a regular visitor to this place. my dog ​​and I have always been very satisfied and I never had any questions about the price, because the attitude towards the dog and the haircut itself have always been top notch. all the same, for $ 85 I want to see a worthy result. but I just got my dog ​​and I'm disappointed. the haircut is very bad, but the worst thing is that they didn’t dry her ears and didn’t wash her eyes from tears. I am disappointed and having told the administrator about this, they did not even offer me anything to solve this situation. By the way, the groomer who cut my dog's hair was no longer there when I picked her up."
