Delightful Pets

Delightful Pets is a grooming salon in the heart of Semaphore, in Adelaide's western suburbs. Reviewers describe a pretty, well-kept shopfront and a team that talks the cut through before anything starts. The work customers name most often is clipping and full haircuts for small and mid-sized dogs: a badly matted Maltese sorted out without fuss, a Labradoodle in for his first proper haircut at eleven months, and a Pomeranian sent home looking the part for her first birthday.

Staff are described as kind and patient with the animals and with owners too, including one visitor new to the area who was minding her sister's dog and had a lot of questions. Dogs come back clean, soft-coated and, by several accounts, noticeably more comfortable than when they went in. It suits owners booking a first groom, small dogs whose coats have got away from them, and anyone who wants to agree on the style before the clippers come out.
