    I took my dog in for grooming for the first time today. He’s just a puppy and We left after 5 hours 1/2 cut and his hind leg cut with 6 stiches!!! This was at the Fair Oaks Store on Madison Ave. I will never bring my dog back there again.

  • Michele Shry

    On June 26, 2009 I took my 3year old ShihTzu in to be groomed. And the dog was cut over the nose no medical attention at this time BUT I WILL NEVER TAKE HER BACK! to the Pembroke Pines store in Florida again. The not so smart groomer Ben was very rude and did not care about the dog only getting paid. Spoke to a customer service rep who was very nice and she was the only one that said she was sorry for this and provided me with steps to help me out just in case this cut gets infected. Ben the groomer needs to be FIRED. This company has lost a customer for life and I will NEVER recommend the grooming salon to anyone!

    Hi Loriell, I am so sorry to hear your dog was nicked at our Pembroke Pines store. I looked into your call to my team and I found that after speaking with you, my team ensured that the upper management team responsible for the store was made aware of what happened and they are addressing it internally. I sincerely hope that your dog is recovering well and that his stitches heal quickly. Please feel free to call us again at 888-824-7257 if we can be of any further assistance to you.

    this page was intended for comments on the pictures not to say how bad your grooming experience was! the Petco grooming salon does a wonderful job at our stores they are always kind and gentle to your pets and take extra precautions to keep your pet and our staff safe. Also petco would not hire a person who is not a good groomer and who just wants to get paid
