We are proud of the reputation, integrity, knowledge, quality of services and high standards that we have achieved in the canine care, and especially in the Newcastle dog grooming industry over the past 14 years. Our success comes from our quality of service, management and staff experience, staff training and education, canine knowledge, the honesty of our staff and our absolute focus on treating all dogs humanely and with respect. Our services, advice and motivation in delivering canine care are never influenced by product sales or add on services. We do what is best for your loved companion.
