What Reviews Say

45 reviews analyzed

Happy Pooch Superior maintains an exceptional reputation, particularly for its owner Tia's expertise in handling dogs with special needs, such as anxiety, reactivity, and senior health issues. Customers consistently praise the high-quality grooming services and the facility's large, wilderness-style property that allows for trail walks and socialization. The sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many owners noting their dogs return home calmer and better-behaved than after stays at other facilities.
