Enter to win pet spa day at Lakewood's Groomingdale’s

By Melissa Renahan on February 9, 2012

For Deanna Clarke, who has been grooming pets for close to 30 years, it was just the right time to go out on her own. Her colorfully named Groomingdale's pet salon opened its doors in Lakewood over a year ago, and since then, Clarke has been steadily gaining clients, as well as their human owners. 

The menu of services at Groomingdale's includes everything from baths and blow-drying to nail trimming and ear cleaning, not to mention haircuts. While appointments are preferred, Clarke and her small staff are equally adept at accepting walk-in, wash & go services for clients who want to wait. While there are no breeds banned from Groomingdale's, all cats and dogs must be non-aggressive and have all shot records up to date. 

Right now, the salon is running a Spa Day contest for eligible dogs. The lucky canine winner will receive the Full-Service Groom package, which includes a 15-minute brush out, bath with medicated shampoo and moisturizing conditioner, blow dry, breed specific (or customer requested) haircut, ear cleaning, nail trim and anal glands expression.

Owners can enter their pups by simply visiting the Groomingdale's Facebook page (www.facebook.com/pages/Groomingdales-Pet-Salon/253631461349497?sk=wall), posting a photo of their adorable furry friend and mentioning that Northwest Military sent them. Entries will be accepted until Nov 10, 2012, and then one winner will be chosen and contacted.

In addition to this contest, which is geared toward Servicemembers, Clarke now offers a 10 percent military discount off services on Tuesdays.

Groomingdale's is located at 10240 Bridgeport Way SW, Suite 107, in Lakewood and is open Tuesdays to Saturdays, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information or to book an appointment, call (253) 301-2823 or visit www.groomingdalestacoma.com.
