Good morning, friends! 🌅

Our Albert Lea grooming salon is currently booking out about 7-8 weeks. We do have a cancelation list. However, we can't guarantee that you will get in before August. As always, it's best to pre-book your next appointment at pick-up. We even recommend booking out a couple of appointments in advance to make sure your pet stays on their grooming schedule! ✂️

If you need to get in sooner, you can always give our Austin location a call!
