About:
Every dog is beautifully unique. A proper groom should not only highlight a dog’s breed characteristics but also capture the personality that makes them truly one of a kind.
At Ruff the Dog Barbershop, we take great pride in fostering trusting, long-lasting relationships with both our two- and four-legged clients. We understand that your dog is family, and that a successful grooming experience begins with mutual trust, patience, feeling safe and genuine care.
Our boutique studio is designed with serenity and sophistication in mind — a low-volume, stress-free, and cage-free environment where calm energy and personalized attention take precedence. With only two certified professionals on staff and a strict one-to-one ratio, every appointment is intimate, unhurried, and personalized with our focus entirely on your dog’s comfort and well-being.
We specialize in professional, hand-scissored grooms complemented by a suite of high-end luxury treatments, inclusive of: Blueberry facials to cleanse, destain and brighten, Argan oil leave-in conditioning treatments for deep hydration and silky shine, and a full-body K9 massage provided by one of our certified canine masseuses.
