    Hi Alan & Sandra,

    Just wanted to say thank you so much for making Daisy and Blossom look fantastic. We knew Blossom would have to be shaved but you made her look so good and tidy…she actually looked cute (so my partner said). You are both lovely people to deal with and will definitely reccommend you to friends and family, I think you might even have 2 more customers already!!

  13. Testimonial by: Sinead Byrne on October 15, 2009

    I would like to thank Alan & Sandra for a great job they did on my Yorkie “Benji”. It was the 1st time I’ve left him here and it certainly wouldn’t be the last. I would highly recommend you. From the minute I met you both, I could see that you were dog lovers and Benji felt at home straight away, as did I knowing that he was in good hands. Will be in contact near Christmas to book Benji in for his Santy haircut!!-

  15. Testimonial by: fran kennedy on November 13, 2009

    Hi Alan & Sandra, just want to say how delighted I am with the beautiful job you did on my dog “mouse”. She looks so cute, and although I knew that she would have to be cut very short, you managed to give her a “girly” look! It was very obvious that you really enjoy what you do and have a great love for dogs which was very re-assuring when leaving my “baby” with you! Your service was very professional and reasonably priced, and I will be recommending you to others..Thanks again, see you in 6 weeks,

  17. Testimonial by: Celine from kildare on January 5, 2010

    Hello to All Dog Lovers: Happy Paws is home away from home. My dog Susie was treated like a queen, she even got a little red bow as her appointment was just before xmas. Sandra & Alan were so kind, caring and professional and I will be recommending them both to all that I know. When I collected my baby girl, she was so happy and relaxed, and when she’s happy so am I. She was ready for the “Dog Walk”! I have a boxer puppy and when she is old enough I will be bringing her too. Thank you so much Sandra & Alan. See you soon. Celine from Kildare.


  18. Testimonial by: yvonne on January 10, 2010

    Huge thanks to Alan and Sandra for the time and patience they spent with my hyperactive cairn terrier. Alan did a fantastic job and Sandra was fantastic to share their dogs biscuits.
    Will definitely be bringing him back as Alan had taken the time to look up the breed before we arrived so he knew what he was doing. Bodie sends his love (just a bit covered in snow). See you soon Yvonne (Newbridge)

  20. Testimonial by: Siobhan on March 10, 2010

    Hi Alan and Sandra
    From the minute I met you I felt reassured that you were going to look after Daisy, my mini schnauzer! And look after her you did. She came home a new dog……up on the sofa and everything, she never did that before. The reason she did it was that even SHE knew she was spotless and fresh as a Daisy…pardon the pun! With Alan and Sandra I didnt feel rushed and they took their time in meticulously grooming Daisy, who might I add was very badly matted. They also gave me plenty of advice and helped me to my car. Such a friendly and professional pair. I will be recommending you to every dog owner I know. Keep up the good work guys! Kind regards, Siobhan…and a woof woof from Daisy x


  21. Testimonial by: Dolores on March 13, 2010

    Hi Alan and Sandra,
    Just want to say thank you so much for your kindness to Molly and Dolly today. Dolly was so nervous at first I didn’t think you were going to be able to groom her but you were both so patient with her she started to relax and ended up looking fantastic. Your passion for dogs was very evident from the moment we arrived. You gave us a great service. We will see you again soon.
    Dolores, Molly (Westie) and Dolly (Scottie)


  22. Testimonial by: joanne on May 24, 2010

    Thanks for the great job you did on Oscar’s first ever grooming. He was so happy with you both and was not sure if he wanted to come home with me. You were both so friendly and professional and I would highly recommend your service. He is even more handsome than before. I now know why all the testimonials are so glowing – and rightly so. Thanks again, Joanne & Oscar


  23. Testimonial by: Carolann Kiernan on May 27, 2010

    Sandra and Alan had my Kerry Blue/Dauschund cross today for his first grooming. I found them FANTASTIC. Whitestripe was extremely nervous and they did their very best to make him comfortable. He looks amazing too. I can’t fault them at all. Because he is a cross, they were very tentative to his coat and did their best to make him look as good as possible. He smells fantastic too which the kids love. And as a really cute touch he had a beautiful blue bow on his collar for my arrival. . I would Highly recommend them to anyone. They truely do love dogs and it shows. Thanks so much and we’ll see you again soon

    Carolann and Whitestripe


  24. Testimonial by: Denise on May 28, 2010

    Hi Alan and Sandra,
    Just want to say a huge thanks to the both of you from Buddy. He came home a new dog, no more hairs all over the house for me either. Thank you for taking such good care of him, he mighten of been the easiest at first but with the way you both took care of him i think he will be running into you both the next time. A big thank you, will definitly be recommending Happy Paws to all buddys friends mams, thanks

    PS – The aftershave went down a treat, Buddy had a good few admirers walking home


  25. Testimonial by: Jackie James on June 10, 2010

    Hi Alan and Sandra,
    This is my first ever testimonial, but I felt I had to thank you for the great job you did on our big dog Shaggy last week. He’s not so shaggy anymore, by the way! You did a wonderful job with him. He’s an older dog but it was his first time to the groomers and you made him and us (my daughter and I)feel right at home. You took such care with him – washing, shaving, trimming and tweaking until he was perfect! The response from the rest of the family was brilliant! We got married on Friday but Shaggy was the star of the show! He’s a happy dog now with all his shaggy hair gone; looks much lighter and is enjoying the good weather!
    Thanks again and we’ll be back!
    Jackie James


  26. Testimonial by: Dave and Kelly on June 25, 2010

    Hi Alan And Sandra
    Thank you so much for your extreme patience and kindness with Maggie our wee westie.
    She looks fantastic. I got a lovely surprice when I saw her.
    she looks so much younger and so cute. Thank you for making her look like such a cute wee girl.
    we look forward to bringing her back to you in the near future.

    Thanks again
    Kelly and Dave and Maggie the westie x


  27. Testimonial by: Patricia & Pepper on June 28, 2010

    Dear Alan & Sandra,
    My sister highly recommended you. Thank you for grooming Pepper so beautifully today.
    I love the little tuft of hair you left on her head :)
    When we returned home she did her lap of honour, played happily & is now sound asleep.
    I must admit I was nervous leaving her with a new groomer as she has been groomed by the same lady for four years.
    Pepper’s happiness & health is most important to us. So thank you so much for taking good care of her & making both Pepper & myself feel at ease and welcome.
    All our best,
    Patricia & Pepper (one very content Lady golden cocker spaniel)

  30. Testimonial by: Saragh on August 7, 2010

    Hi Alan and Sandra
    I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated the fantastic job you did with Ziggy. When I got him home they didn’t recognise him! You were so gentle and welcoming towards him, I will definitely be back – and I will be highly recommending you to anyone I know looking for a dog grooming service! Your tips on keeping him right were also fantastic, thanks so much again.
    Saragh

    Hi alan and sandra.
    A very big thanks to both of you for looking after Molly on Saturday!
