— WHY WE EXIST
I built Bow Wows Dublin
because I wanted better for my own dog.
After leaving my corporate career, I began caring for local dogs and discovered how much I loved working with animals.
Then Winnie went for her first professional groom and came home looking nothing like the puppy I had dropped off. Her coat was far shorter than expected, communication was limited, and I remember thinking: There has to be a better way.
So I bought a pair of scissors, trained professionally in dog grooming, and Bow Wows Dublin grew from there.
That experience shaped how I believe pets should be cared for:
Never rushed. Never treated like another appointment. Always cared for as an individual.
That philosophy now runs through everything we do — from one-to-one grooming to private walks, sitting and boarding.
Welfare first. Personal care, always.
The standard I wanted for Winnie — and the standard I believe your dog deserves, too.
— From the humans
Don't take our word for it.
Take theirs.

Dog: Mila“Mila had her very first puppy groom with Bow Wows Dublin and I was absolutely over the moon! She came home looking gorgeous, and I couldn’t have been happier with her first grooming experience. We’ll definitely be back!”
Isis Bovin
Dog: Fuscilli“Fuscilli always comes home looking gorgeous after his groom! He’s treated like one of the family at Bow Wows — although being Winnie’s best friend probably helps! ”
Elaine Campbell
Dog: Frankie"Frankie had a fantastic first grooming experience with Bow Wows! He came back looking a million dollars. We were so happy with how well he was looked after, and he’ll definitely be back. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him!"
Winnie
Chief Quality Control Officer, Bow Wows Dublin“I asked for something sophisticated, flattering and low-maintenance. He understood the assignment. Although I may be slightly biased… he is my hooman.”
Amy O’Brien
Dog: Josie“Had the best experience with Brendan! It was Josie’s first groom with Bow Wows Dublin and she was so happy and comfortable with him. She came home looking and smelling beautiful — we were so impressed that we booked her next appointment straight away. Definitely recommend!”
Stephen Reddin
Dogs: Cesar and Dasher“Brendan is fantastic with Cesar and Dasher. You can tell straight away how much he genuinely cares about the dogs he grooms. He takes his time with both of them, they’re always comfortable in his care, and they come home looking and smelling amazing. It’s great knowing they’re getting that one-to-one attention rather than being rushed through. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bow Wows Dublin.”
James Blackmore
Dog: Murphy“Murphy has just had his second puppy groom with Bow Wows Dublin and we couldn’t be happier. Brendan has been so patient with him and has made his first experiences of grooming really positive. It’s reassuring knowing Murphy is being introduced to everything gradually and at his own pace. He came home looking gorgeous, happy and smelling amazing! A great start to his grooming journey.”
Jordan Rankin
Dog: Barney“Barney had a brilliant experience at Bow Wows Dublin. I wanted to make sure his coat was properly hand-stripped rather than clipped, and Brendan took the time to do it properly. The difference was incredible — his coat looked so natural, tidy and beautifully finished while still looking completely like Barney! Really impressed with the care, patience and attention to detail throughout. We’ll definitely be back.”
Elaine Oliveira
Dog: Bobby Lee“Bobby Lee always has such a lovely experience with Bow Wows Dublin. Brendan is so patient and caring with him, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing he’s being looked after. He comes home looking gorgeous, smelling amazing and so well groomed. You can really see the care and attention that goes into every appointment. We wouldn’t go anywhere else!”
Aoife Sheehy
Dog: Maureen“Mimi always comes home looking absolutely gorgeous! She’s treated with so much care and attention, and we’re always delighted with her groom.”
Brendan At Work
Brendan | Max
Max’s Schnauzer coat is all about keeping those signature furnishings looking sharp while maintaining his comfort. A 6–8 week professional grooming schedule, alongside regular brushing at home, keeps his coat manageable and his style looking its best.
Brendan | Ralph
Ralph’s Cavapoo coat needs consistency to keep it soft, comfortable and free from matting. Regular home brushing, alongside a 6–8 week professional grooming schedule, means we can maintain the longer, fluffy finish that suits him.

Dog Grooming FAQs
Dog grooming prices vary depending on your dog's size, coat type and condition, behaviour and the time required.
At Bow Wows Dublin, prices shown when booking are indicative, with the final price based on your dog's individual grooming requirements.
It depends on your dog's coat, lifestyle and preferred style. Many higher-maintenance coats benefit from professional grooming every 4–8 weeks.
We'll recommend a suitable schedule based on your individual dog.
Our Signature Experience™ includes professional bathing and conditioning, coat preparation, bespoke haircut and styling, nail, paw, hygiene and ear care, finishing touches and a personalised care plan.
Every groom is tailored around your dog's coat, comfort and individual needs.
Timing depends on your dog's size, coat, service, behaviour and individual needs.
Because we provide one-to-one dog grooming, we allow the time your dog needs rather than rushing them to meet a fixed finishing time.
Introducing puppies to professional grooming early can help them become comfortable with handling, bathing, drying, brushing and grooming equipment.
Our one-to-one approach allows these early experiences to be introduced gradually and at your puppy's pace.
Potentially, yes. Our quieter, one-to-one grooming environment can be particularly helpful for nervous or sensitive dogs.
We work at the individual dog's pace and provide breaks where appropriate, but we'll never continue if doing so would compromise their welfare or safety.
Your Signature Experience™ includes up to 10 minutes of complimentary dematting where this can be done safely and comfortably.
More significant matting may incur an additional charge or require the coat to be clipped to a safe length.
Welfare always comes before preserving a hairstyle.
One-to-one grooming means your dog's appointment is focused entirely on them.
At Bow Wows Dublin, we provide private, home-based grooming with Brendan as your dog's dedicated groomer from start to finish. We welcome just one dog at a time, creating a calmer, quieter and more personal grooming experience.
One Dog. One Groomer. No Rushing.
No. Our grooming appointments are intentionally private and one-to-one, without multiple dogs being groomed or waiting around them.
This can be particularly helpful for dogs who find busy salon environments overwhelming.
Generally, appointments are carried out privately between your dog and their groomer, as many dogs settle better without their owner present.
If there's a particular reason your dog may need you to stay, please discuss this with us before booking.
Potentially. Every dog is assessed individually, and our quieter one-to-one approach can help dogs who have struggled with grooming previously.
Please tell us about any biting, snapping, reactivity or previous difficult experiences before booking. We will never force a dog through a groom they cannot safely tolerate.

Every dog is different. So their grooming should be too.
Before the clippers come out, we take the time to understand the dog in front of us — their coat, temperament, history, and what they can comfortably manage.
Thoughtful. One-to-one. Welfare-led.
That’s the Bow Wows difference. 🐾

WELFARE FIRST. BEAUTY SECOND. 🐾
A beautiful haircut is never more important than your dog’s comfort, safety, and wellbeing.
At Bow Wows, we believe professional grooming is about more than creating the perfect look. It’s about understanding the individual dog in front of us—and knowing when to adapt.
Sometimes, the right choice is to change the plan.
Sometimes, it’s to take a little more time.
And sometimes, the most professional decision is knowing when to stop.
Because great grooming isn’t about achieving a look at any cost.
It’s about making the right decision for the dog.
Comfort over perfection.
Welfare over aesthetics.
Every single time. 🐾
