I'm Wren!I learned to groom so that I could make sure my own dog was getting the best quality of care. I believe in humanity over vanity, and I do not do "whatever it takes" to finish a groom. Your dog deserves respect and kindness.There is no breed discrimination at Velvet Paw. If your dog is aggressive or more difficult, I would love to help you create a training plan to make grooming a more enjoyable experience for everyone involved.With me, your pup get's a one-on-one experience. No kennels or being left alone! I am positive reinforcement only and go at your pup's pace. I like to work with dogs and help them learn that grooming doesn't have to be a scary or stressful experience.I received my training certification from American College of Canine Studies to better my understanding of a dog's mind. I also previously worked in the dog daycare industry as a professional trainer.Note, upfront prices are an estimate. If you have a particularly challenging dog, $15 is added for every hour. This extra charge ensures I am able to take the necessary time to groom your dog without overly stressing them out.We service the Tigard, Sherwood, Lake Oswego and Newberg areas.
