About The K9 Salon
The K9 Salon is a small dog grooming studio in Hughesdale, run by Zara, who reviewers mention groomed in Elwood before moving here. Regulars bring poodles, groodles and other coated dogs on a roughly six-weekly cycle for a wash, a full haircut, a nail trim and tidying of the hair between the pads. Styling is what customers talk about most, with dogs coming home looking noticeably sharper than they did from previous salons.
Temperament is the other recurring theme. Owners whose dogs found earlier grooming stressful say theirs settle here and are relaxed at pick-up, and Zara is described as happy to talk through coat and styling decisions when handing them back. Several reviewers also call the pricing fair for the area. One practical note comes up repeatedly: the salon books out, so people advise booking well ahead, especially over the warmer months. It suits owners of poodle and doodle coats looking for one consistent groomer long term.
