“I packed everything into my two-toned ’97 Buick Century and headed to Georgia… I knew I wasn’t going back,” Megan Taylor, Salon Manager at Pooch N Paws Pet Boutique, reminisced on moving from Philadelphia for the job one year ago.

With years of experience in the pet grooming industry under her belt, Taylor was searching for a change and a chance to get out of Philly, and Pooch N Paws opened that door for her when they hired her to help open the new salon. From her research, Suwanee, Georgia sounded nice. And, it has proven her right.

“Being a part of something new like this in Suwanee has been very exciting,” Taylor said of opening the salon, “Suwanee is a dog-town, everyone here absolutely loves their pets.”

Pooch N Paws has a full-service dog and cat salon that includes professional grooming as well as self-service bath stations. Taylor, who is working on her Master Groomer Certification, is a registered member of the National Dog Groomers Association and is accompanied by apprentice, Kayla Floor and groomer, Taylor Carpenter.

A lot of people think regular grooming is intended for show dogs, but Taylor stresseDSC_0621s the importance of all dogs being on a grooming regiment. “It is healthier for the dogs and is a great way for us to spot any problems that the owner might not have the ability to see,” she said. She recommends every 8 weeks for short-haired dogs and every 6 weeks for long- haired dogs.

Some dogs and cats don’t have the luxury of a loving home or caring owner, so Pooch N Paws is dedicated to helping the Georgia SPCA with free grooming for homeless animals as well as food and toy donations.

It is clear when meeting with any Pooch N Paws staff member that they’re passionate about what they do and truly put their hearts into it – treating each animal as if it were their own.

Pooch N Paws is expanding their already- extensive list of services. With a full- service grooming salon, pet store, bakery and daytime boarding, owners Starla and Bob Pellegrino are excited to announce the addition of dog- training classes with Ronnie Marriot, Master Obedience and Dog Educator Trainer. Marriot will use his “strict yet caring approach” to teach: Puppy Intro to Manners, Obedience 101 and Obedience 102, beginning in early November.
