Buddy's Grooming

Buddy's Grooming is a one-on-one dog grooming service in Dudley Park, Mandurah, run by Georgie. Its customer base is noticeably long-standing — reviewers count three and four years of visits with the same groomer — and a good share of the feedback comes from owners bringing puppies in for their very first groom, including one client whose two young dogs went home happy after their first session.

Patience is the quality clients return to again and again. One owner whose dog would not settle at other salons says he now looks forward to going, and a standard poodle's first visit is described in terms of the one-on-one attention as much as the cut itself. Reviewers use words like kind, welcoming and calm, and the results get equal billing with the handling. It suits puppies and first-timers, dogs that have had a rough experience elsewhere, and poodle owners who want a properly shaped clip from a groomer working with one dog at a time.
