Honesty is PRICELESS !!! (Rosemount, MN) Date: 2011-01-30, 9:57PM CST

I just have to put in my two cents about an ad that is run here on CL.

A newer grooming salon in Rosemount, MN called The Lazy Leash is claiming that they can groom a dog within an hour.
I never thought that would be possible until I made an appointment for my Bichon. He hadn't been groomed for a little more than 3 months (he was in dier need).
I totally expected the appointment to last 2-4 hours just as it does when I have taken him to other salons, nor did I think that he would look very good as I was quoted
a VERY low price for the condition he was in!

HOW WRONG I WAS !!!! GET THIS !!!

I didn't have time to get lunch at the local pizza joint a block away. Almost an hour on the nose my cell phone rang. I was informed that my baby was ready to go!!!
When I walked in the door he was happy and looked GREAT !!!!
That was when I got the shock of my life...... I have NEVER ... and I mean NEVER ... met anyone as caring as the lady that did the grooming!!!
The price that I was quoted on the phone was $40 .... as I said he was in real bad shape, but I still thought that was way cheap as my old groomer would charge me more than that if I brought him there every 8 weeks. The real shocker to this story (the reason I had to post this) is that when she told me what the bill was IT WAS LOWER THAN THE QUOTE !!!!!!!!!! She explained to me that although I thought he was a horrible mess... it wasn't as bad as I made her believe.. she said she couldn't charge me what she had quoted because it wouldn't be fair !!! It is so wonderful to find someone who cares about my baby just as much as I do and is brutally honest to boot !!!

SHE HAS MY BUSINESS FOR LIFE !!!!

Jo, if you read this ... THANKYOU SOOOOOO much for being you !!!

I suggest that if you really want a groomer that loves your pet more than the almighty dollar... give Jo a call !!! 612-390-6265
BTW.... My appointment was today.... SUNDAY !!!

We have taken her to several different groomers before, but Jo did a better job than any of the others. And she was done quickly; others would have Abby for up to 6 hours. I am so pleased to find someone close to home, who does such a good job. Thanks Jo!
