Meet "Paws for Elegance" in Sherwood, Oregon

Paws for Elegance

  

Located in the Sherwood Business Center off 99W at 20345 SW Pacific Hwy is "Paws for Elegance!"  Professional pet groomers serving the Sherwood area since 1996. 

We've been taking our dog Gizmo there for a long time and just love the service.  It's very open, clean, affordable and friendly.  Gizmo comes home very handsome with his new doo and stylish bandana they always place around his neck.  Gizmo truly has a sense of confidence about him when he gets home from his "Paws for Elegance" treatment.  We thought it'd be fun to share the "Paws for Elegance" experience with you, right here on Sherwood's blog, www.DiscoverSherwood.com.

From their full service - self serve area, professional grooming by appointment, use of only natural products or the 100% all natural products available for sale, the friendly and experienced staff at Paws for Elegance has you and your pet covered...

Successful local business owner and mother, Brenda Miles (pictured on the upper left) opened her doors after attending professional grooming school and taking here expertise to Pet Smart.  Brenda had in mind her own ideas to start a shop and "Paws for Elegance" was born.  Brenda employs a handful of talent... Janet who has been with her since the beginning, Jermel, Lisa and Jennifer.  A tight-nit team of 5 that love what they do!  "No pun intended"

I picked up Gizmo this week after taking him in for his royal treatment and talked a bit with Brenda about her story.  She said, "this is an art-form.  We are stylists and are strict about quality."  As a loyal customer, I was not surprised when she said "Sherwood has grown with us.  Our business is repeat clientele and word of mouth."  Lucky for them they don't have to do much marketing.  They have a "buzz" going on about their business and are conveniently located in a great location right off 99W, beside other local shops and across from Home Depot.

Some of the special services they provide includes their "Spa" packages.  This is where you can pick an add-on of additional totally natural treatments for your pet.  For dogs with dry or itchy skin they recommend the mud bath and massage. It helps their pores, skin and coat.  I asked Jermel what dogs thought of this and he said "they LOVE the special attention."  He also shared "They love the pad treatments.  It's one of the dogs favorites!  They become very relaxed when their little pads are rubbed, not to mention it makes them soft"  He also shared that if it's your first time and maybe the owner or pet may be feeling nervous, they're happy to offer a tour of their facility, they're all stocked up on doggie treats and win the pets over with special attention. 

Jermel shared some tips for pet owners... Make sure to have a comb or brush on hand.  Grooming your pet at home and brushing their teeth once a day can help keep vet bills down.  This is also good time spent with you and your pet.  ALL the shampoos used and sold at Paws for Elegance are all natural.  This includes all products used in their spa packages as well.

Hi Amber,

Great post, I'm sure the folks in town who have not tried Paws Of Elegance may change their minds after reading your post. Very nice. I'm sure the groomer just loves you.
