We live in Guildford but we are now willing to travel just for this service.
"We brought in our chihuahua to have his nails clipped - he bites and can be very difficult when it comes to his paws. We’ve never had a good experience in the past HOWEVER, he was instantly at ease with the lovely ladies who clipped his nails today and seemed completely unfazed. I would 100000% recommend these people to anyone. We live in Guildford but we are now willing to travel just for this service. Not to mention the incredibly healthy treats and dog food they have to offer. 10/10, definitely try them out!"

I adore it here! Sally and her team are exceptional...
"...when providing a service that suits both me and my little Maisie🌸 Dachshunds can be wrigglers when having their nails trimmed which can always be a worry- that being said they handle her gently and usually always have the time to talk unless busy. Prices of their own merchandise is fair, although some brands could be deemed a bit pricey. Overall, the slobber and chops team are super and will always do their best to accommodate you. I adore it here and things far less traumatic for Maisie too. We wear our ‘Slobber and Chops’ water bowl with pride!"

Always enjoys his visit!
"Another great haircut for the little fella. The staff make him feel comfortable and he always enjoys his visit. It might have something to do with the bone that I buy him after but I think it's because he enjoys the beauty treatment. Nails done, teeth cleaned, hair cut all in a couple of hours. Very happy"

Super lovely and friendly staff!
"Ramona had her second visit to S&C today and she was super excited to be back! She always comes home happy and tired out. Super lovely and friendly staff, a great shop attached, and of course excellent haircuts. It can be hard to find places that do a good teddy cut for schnauzers, but these guys nail it."
