My beautiful German Short Haired Pointer, Bo, was suffering from itchy skin. After many vet visits with no relief for him, I signed up with Carrie Hyde at the Spaw. She put him and me on a committed program of holistic foods, gut health and bathing with natural dog shampoo. He is doing so much better since we started! Thank you for all of your help!

Let me start by saying that my dog Marvin is super loving and wants to be your best friend, with that being said he is not a fan of the groomers … My dad told me to try out The Spaw, he takes his two dogs there and I resisted because his two dogs are not crazy like Marvin can be. I finally committed and made an appointment for early Saturday Morning. I brought him in with COMPLETE apprehension and was greeted by Sonia … She was very pleasant and put me right at ease. I explained Marvin is super difficult and she sent me on my way and said she would call me if she needed me. Anxiously, I waited by my phone … a little over two hours later I got a call … the lady on the phone said I can pick up Marvin. Just to be sure I asked her if his grooming was actually complete or I just had to come get him, she assured me it was complete. I went to pick him up and Sonia brought Marvin out and he looked so cute! I was so happy I LOVE this place!

We have taken our three dogs to The Spaw since they were puppies. They are now 11, 11, & 12 years old. Carrie always makes sure each and every dog is cared for, as though they are her own dogs. This morning, I called to see when they would be ready for pick up from boarding and she told me that my Yorkie, Bella was sitting in her lap as we were speaking, while she worked on the computer. Bella has a great deal of anxiety when She isn’t with me and Carrie understands that, and makes sure she feels safe. Not only does she make sure they’re cared for while in her care, Carrie is incredibly knowledgeable about pet nutrition. Two of my dogs have chronic diseases that require a regimented diet in order to keep them as healthy as possible. Carrie has helped me do that.
