What Reviews Say

96 reviews analyzed

Morningside Happy Tails is highly regarded for its affordable pricing, exceptional grooming services, and a staff that genuinely knows the dogs by name. While the vast majority of clients report happy, exhausted dogs and appreciate the Facebook photo updates, one significant safety incident involving a severe bite wound highlights a potential concern regarding the supervision of aggressive new dogs. Overall, it is a beloved local facility with a strong base of multi-generational repeat customers.

Worth noting

Severe dog-on-dog aggression incident resulting in injury

β€œwe received a call that she had been bitten badly by a β€œnew dog” that was aggressive and not getting along with the group. The resulting wound is a nickel size bite through her lower neck/chest area.”

Supervision of aggressive dogs

β€œMy observation is that the place is mismanaged and employs many many children that are probably unable to deal with an aggressive dog like this.”
