Sorry I really don't like the second name and it would put me off using you if I was just looking around for a new groomer.

The first is ok but equally I find that something quite simple like 'icantthinkofanotherusername dog groomers' or 'dog groomers of placewhereyoulive' indicates to me what you do instantly and is professional. Boring I know but I often search about on google for companies any they would be the ones I would look at first.

Maybe insert place name into VIP dog Spa. I don't like the second either.
What kind of dog owners are you trying to attract ? What is your pricing structure and offerings like compared to your competitors? What do you want the name to say about you and your company?

I once saw one called "Doggy Style".... Shock

Unlike previous posters, I love pun type names for dog groomers (although I'd certainly draw the line at 'doggy style' Shock). Pawfection, that sort of thing. Or something that is a play on words for where you are based.

Or anything that gets the word paws, tail or bark in there. Pampered Paws, Paws and Claws etc

I know they are cheesy but I think a dog groomers is the sort of business where you can afford to be a bit humorous.

I quite like Get Your Groooom on!

MooseBeTimeForSnow · 19/12/2017 03:52

Mobile groomer around here called “Beauty in the Beast”

There’s one near me called Blue Wheelers. Grin

You could do your business out in a signature blue colour. Retro powder-blue or something.

HuskyMcClusky · 19/12/2017 04:37

Also Park ‘n’ Bark.

You want something easy and fun to say, I reckon.

Posh paws? For those who remember the dinosaur from Swap Shop days Wink

Sorry to hijack your thread, but I wonder if I can ask a question? We are hoping to get our, first ever dog, in January. She Is a Terrier x Pattie and is about 8. Can you tell me whether she will need to go regularly to a groomer and what for? I was going to ask the Rescue Centre but thought I might look like an idiot.

Floralnomad · 19/12/2017 09:29

pansy , it’s personal preference , I have a patterdale x JRT and I have him clipped every 5 weeks and he goes back to the groomers for a bath in between clips but that’s because I find it easier to have a very short haired dog as he likes wallowing in muddy puddles and rolling in crap . I know other people with patterdale that have never been to a groomers . Back to the OP , I don’t like the second name but I’m not sure how important a name is , reputation is the thing . The groomers we use is called ‘Hair of the Dog ‘

'feeling ruff'

Snip doggy dog

pinkmagic1 · 19/12/2017 09:39

Love snip Doggy Dog!

Are you going to have a website? If so then this may have a bearing on your business name as you'll want them to match to help people find you.

I don't like the second name either!
