About 5 Paws Grooming
5 Paws Grooming is a long-running salon at Modbury, in Adelaide's north-east, and its reviews read like a client list built over years rather than visits — one customer counts more than a decade of six-weekly appointments. The range of work described is unusually broad for a small salon: oodle crosses, small dogs such as chihuahuas, cats, and show dogs prepared for the ring, including a rough-coated breed that has to be finished looking deliberately scruffy.
What customers return to is patience and consultation. One owner describes a dog that used to vomit on arrival at a previous groomer and no longer does; first-time clients mention being talked through trim options before anything was cut. Results are consistently described as beautifully finished, with dogs comfortable and pleased with themselves afterwards. It suits nervous dogs, cats that need grooming, small breeds, and owners who want a genuine say in how their dog is trimmed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do they groom cats as well as dogs?
Yes. A long-standing client notes that cats are groomed here alongside dogs, and cat grooming is one of the things they single out.
Can they groom a dog for the show ring?
Yes — one reviewer had their basset fauve de bretagne prepared for showing here, and credits the groomer with knowing how to finish a rough-coated breed correctly for the ring as well as handling ordinary family pets.
How do they handle a dog that hates being groomed?
This comes up more than once. An owner whose nervous oodle used to vomit on arriving at a previous groomer says that stopped after moving here, crediting kind and patient handling.
Will they discuss how the dog should be trimmed?
First-time customers describe being helped to decide on a trim before the groom started, rather than having a style chosen for them.
