Highly recommend Ballyclough Dog Grooming & Kennels to look after your fur baby. Can't thank the guys at Ballyclough enough, its a relief knowing our baby was looked after so tenderly while we were away.

Brought our 5 month old Shih Tzu puppy for her first groom yesterday. They did a great job and the dog seemed to take it very well so she was obviously treated very well. Will be using again

Lovely people do a fab job on my Collie. He’s normally fearful of vets and groomers and the like, but he loves coming here. Highly recommended!
