I have just read the review from UnleashedRD. Boy does this perso have the wrong place. I think she must be off. If my boy had such a bad experience as she describes, I'd never take him back the second time. I have been extremely please with the serviece and attitudes of the the workers here. I recommend this shop to every one who will listen. My boy has a bad back and they are extremely careful to be sure he is taken are of the right way. He always come home looking great. He enjoys his day at the spa! My advice is this person seems to have an ax to grind. Their experience is not the same as I have had, nor is it the same expereince many of my friends who take their fur children to the Barking Lot tell me they have. This shop is top notched in our eyes. Tino's Dad

I travel 30+ miles to get to The Barking Lot. I pass many other pet grooming locations on the way but would never dream of stopping at any of them. They just don't come any better than The Barking Lot. My cherished Basset Hound, affectionately considered my "son", was given the royal treatment for 9 years. He grew to love the shop and Steve and his employees grew to love Skeeter. He was always expertly groomed, toe nails perfect, long Basset ears clean as a whistle. He was always ready when I arrived and was in a great mood - I think he knew how good he looked! Skeeter had arthritis and joint issues and the folks at the Barking Lot were not only gentle with him, but provided padded cushions and mats to keep him feeling his best. When my sweet Skeeter passed away, the entire staff shared their sympathies and memories with me; something you just don't find unless people truly care. I recommend The Barking Lot to anyone who wants the very best for their pet - they go way beyond just pet grooming - you become part of a family.
Pros: Dependable, expert grooming techniques, loving care, go the extra mile
Cons: Absolutely none
