Review from Samantha M.

So after my cat decided to literally dig his entire claw into my arm after trying to bath him, I brought him here.
He's a persian so he has stubborn, long hair and I needed him shaved. I brought him in fully expecting a phone call an hour later telling me he attacked them and they gave up or something, but they didn't, they were great. They even said he was good, I don't know if they were just saying that to be polite or what. Anyway he looks good, like a little flat faced lion :). It wasn't cheap though, I paid over 100. -

I used to bring my pooch here - it is true the waiting times are not long.
But that might tell you something. They do an acceptable job, although they don't pay attention to detail the way my former groomer did (see Dogfather review - boy do we miss her!), but pooch looked cute enough. They don't clean ears unless you ask, and my dog will probably never look as wonderful as shown in pic above (taken in Toronto), but Christine's is in my neighbourhood, so it was convenient.
At some point, they decided they would raise their prices, and not tell me- in fact, they DOUBLED their prices.
My dog weighs 15 lbs, is well-behaved for groomers, and her hair is never very long as she is groomed regularly. They decided to charge almost $80 for a wash and brush (not a full groom folks!). When I suggested this was exorbitant, not too mention almost double the $45 they were charging before, the not-so-charming man at the counter shrugged his shoulders and said prices had gone up! When I said I wouldn't be coming back, as that is a ridiculous sum, he merely shrugged his shoulders again.
Christine herself witnessed this conversation, and didnt say a word.
Needless to say, I wont be going back, and having lived intermittently in this neighbourhood for over 30 years, I am telling everyone I know...
PS my amazing former groomer - in Rosedale no less- charged less then these folks did BEFORE they raised their prices. Gee, who knew OOS was so posh?
Next thing you know, I'll be spotting Jeanne Beker on our streets! -

Very nice, small and unpretentious place.
My doggie is TERRIFIED of everything, and they handle him with care. Also, you can get your pup in SUPER fast, which is a treat, given how long you can wait at some other places.
The groom is lovely, nice cut that lasts him a long time.
Price= average ($60) for a medium sized dog.
