Amy gave him a summer buzz worthy of a pup date night. 🐶 The Mohawk turned out even better than I expected. He’s had a Mohawk before, but this was by far the best one yet. Honestly, his entire haircut was the best he’s had since he was a puppy.
He enjoyed the experience, looked adorable, and we will definitely be back!
If you’re like us and your fur baby is your child, you know finding a groomer you trust can be a challenge. Check out Central Bark and ask for Amy. You will not be disappointed! 🐾🐶
We definitely recommend this facility.
Even with this big transition, Cheetho still gets excited to be there. The staff remembers his quirks, guides him gently, and gives him the extra reassurance he now needs. It’s clear they truly love what they do.
