Get To Know Us
At Short Bark 'N' Sides, our passion for dogs drives everything we do.
Your furry family member means the world to you, and we feel the same way. That’s why we’re committed to delivering exceptional care and grooming services that make your dog feel as cherished as they truly are.
Our Philosophy on Grooming
We believe every dog deserves to be groomed with patience, understanding, and kindness—no matter their personality or past experiences. Whether your pup is shy, spirited, or a little anxious, we take the time to help them feel safe and at ease during the grooming process.
Every dog is one of a kind, and so is our approach. What works for one pup might not work for another, and that’s why we tailor each grooming session to meet their individual needs and personality. Here, there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution.
What Makes a Great Groomer?
A great groomer sees beyond the fur and behaviour. We ask the important questions: Why are they acting this way? Have they had a negative experience before? Is this their first grooming session? Even with over 20 years of experience, we approach each dog with curiosity and care, ensuring they feel understood and valued.
We’re Here to Support You
We know how challenging it can be to manage your dog’s coat at home, which is why we’re always happy to share advice and tips to make things easier.
At Short Bark 'N' Sides, you’ll never encounter judgment—just encouragement, support, and a genuine desire to help both you and your dog thrive.
