What makes it different?

The shop describes its style as one-on-one and stress-free, with no assembly line of dogs moving through. That can matter for nervous dogs, or for owners who have had a rushed experience somewhere else. The website has a personal tone and talks about tailoring each pup's day to its own needs. Coat knowledge for specific breeds is the other draw, especially for doodle owners who have trouble finding a groomer comfortable with coats that mat easily.

When is it open, and how do you book?

Happy Tails is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and closed on weekends. Booking is handled by email at happytailsresortandspa@gmail.com, and the phone number is 803-638-4222.
