Just bought our 2nd frenchie puppy from Betty. She is so sweet and will be a good companion for our healthy one year old male.

I don't know what was the lady's problem but she was such a rude person and made my dog look like it had been clipped by a pair of garden sheers.just the worst

I travel around Texas a lot with my dog so I am always looking to find a good, quick place to get a grooming for him. I should have noticed the red flags when I first called, the lady on the phone (Betty I am assuming) was very harsh and rude to me for wanted a last minute appointment. Eventually she said I could take my dog in. Upon arriving I was somewhat shocked walking through a messy yard coverd in dog poop and was greeted with a nasty "who are you" and a frown.
It took over 4 hours for her to groom my dog and when I finally came to pick him up she told me how "he is such a bad dog." I was astounded and even more when she asked for a tip after that comment. Out of all the places I have taken my boy this has been by far the worst experience.

Betty is amazing. My dogs live going to her kennel. It's always clean, and they are extremely well cared for.
