Hairy Hounds is a full-service dog grooming salon in Oakley that handles everything from haircuts and baths to nail trimming, ear cleaning, and anal gland expression. The groomers here work with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and they know how to approach each dog’s specific needs—whether your dog gets anxious during grooming or needs specialized handling for a particular breed cut.

What makes this place work is that the staff actually listens to what you want for your dog. They’re not just running dogs through on a schedule; they take time to understand each dog’s personality and any quirks that might matter during grooming. The salon itself is clean and calm, which helps nervous dogs relax. If you have questions about grooming maintenance between visits or how to care for your dog’s coat at home, the staff will talk through it with you rather than rushing you out the door.

The Oakley location gives you options for what to do with your time while your dog is being groomed. There are several parks in the area where you can take a walk, or you can grab coffee and kill an hour nearby. After pickup, you’ll have plenty of dog-friendly spots around town for that post-grooming walk—your dog will be freshly cleaned and ready to show off the work.

If you have specific requests or want to discuss your dog’s grooming needs before bringing them in, calling ahead makes sense. That way you can make sure the groomers understand what you’re looking for and can let you know if there’s anything you should do to prepare your dog beforehand, like brushing out mats or letting them get used to having their paws handled.
