Grooming

Is your dog in need of a bath?
Or perhaps a fresh new look? 
Maybe you want your terrier hand stripped?
At A Canine Understanding we are happy to offer grooming services to fit your dog's needs. I schedule only one dog at a time and use positive reinforcement training during grooming to ensure your dog has the best experience possible. I accept all breeds ages 8 weeks and older.
