Smooches

Hi Toni:
CJ and Kizzie look fabulous-like movie stars! I am so pleased with your service at Smooches & Pooches. Joe the
groomer was excellent with both my dogs who had not been professionally done for three months. The van was quiet
and spotless, spotless, spotless. I like the fact that my dog gets ALL the attention of the groomer without distractions
of a noisy shop with lots of dogs and people milling around. The convenience and safety and cleanliness is well worth
the price, especially for high-maintenance dogs like my two Shih Tzu.

I will use Smooches & Pooches again, and I took a fistful of cards to hand out to my neighbors. One neighbor is
already taking down the info right off the van as I write!!!

To Cleveland-park groups:
There is a new pet grooming service serving the Cleveland Park/Woodley Park area. Last week while leaving the
Uptown Theater my wife and I noticed a van for a service called Smooches and Pooches, a mobile "spa" for dogs.
As we have been looking for a good local or mobile grooming service for the past several years, we took down the
number and made a reservation. Our dog, a small beagle, had her first grooming experience with Smooches and
Pooches yesterday. She emerged clean and happy. She wasn't caged in a small noisy room with a half dozen
other traumatized dogs and she had the undivided attention of the groomer the entire hour. They did an excellent
job washing and drying her. They also cleaned her eyes and ears and brushed her teeth. Smooches and Pooches
drives to your home; parks in front of or in the alley behind your home; grooms your dog in a fully equipped new van;
and then after 45 minutes to an hour gets a check or cash from you and goes to the next appointment. They are
slightly more pricey than some of the pet stores and groomers in town, but when you think about the savings in time
and aggravation and gas by having them come to you, we think the price charged us was fair...

We now have a standing monthly appointment for our dog. If you need more information, feel free to check out their
website, www.SmoochesPooches .com or call them at 202-723 PETS (7387).

Good luck... I think I covered everything but am happy to try to answer any other questions you might have...

First, I wanted to say that Taylor has never had a better grooming experience than with your groomer, Joel, last
week and he simply looks great!

Thanks,

Michele

I just wanted to let you know that I was very impressed with your services. My dog Sade had an
appointment Saturday morning at 7:30, and it went very well. She looks and smells great. I will
definitely use your services again!

Thank you!

We are very happy with the grooming! Our Golden Retriever, Spartacus, looks great! We will definitely

Chloe looks so beautiful after her grooming on Sunday!  I just wanted to thank you 
and Joel again and to say that we will be using you on a regular basis. Also,
I have given your name to my dog walker (Pet sitting by Patricia), so Patricia 
may be calling you and I am sure that she will refer you to her clients.  I have also 
given your name to a dear friend who has two portuguese water dogs and a bulldog 
and lives in DC. So, you will probably hear from her too. Many thanks again for
Joel's patience with Chloe and the beautiful job he did on her for her first grooming. 

Please give him this message.
Best, Susan

Hi Toni-
Joel did an amazing job with Fritz this afternoon! For a little while, he will look like a Westminster show dog! He smelled so fresh and clean that it filled our apartment when he came back inside! I'm a true proponent of mobile pet grooming -- send 'em out for an hour or so and then get 'em back! I will definitely recommend you guys to other dog owners in the area-McLean Gardens has TONS of dogs and cats. You should consider putting an ad in the Northwest Current - many of its readers are dog and cat owners in the area. Thanks a lot and I'll contact you in a couple of months. We want to keep Fritz cut close for the summer heat.

Sincerely, a new fan,
Jody Tomesek
