Harbor Hound

My Bernese Mountain Dog, Harpur, has been groomed by Liza nearly her entire life (4 years). I have to say, Liza and the rest of the staff at Harbor Hound have been terrific! They always do an immaculate fur cut on her and leave her smelling wonderful! Liza truly has excellent grooming skills and shes a total sweetheart. Theyve been nothing but accommodating to me and really have been a pleasure to go to!

They do a good job and the prices are reasonable, that part is undeniable. That being said, the staff is grumpy, rude and aloof at times. If you are local, it’s fine but if not, definitely not worth it.

I have used Harbor Hounds for years but today was definitely the last time. My 6 lb 16 year old maltese was brought in at 9:15 am. When i did not get the “ shes ready” call, i called them at 1:35. No one answered so i left message. No call back so i called them again and was told she wasnt ready yet! They said come in 15 minutes. I arrived and the place was empty. Groomer Liza had left and my dog had sissied in her cage having been left too long. Did I mention she is 16 and 5 hours is just too long for her without a bathroom break especially in a place where shes stressed. The owner lightly rinsed her handed her to me now unclean and grabbed my credit card fast as she could. Go elsewhere.

Harbor Hounds is a small boutique shop in the heart of Cold Spring Harbor. They have a nice selection of apparel, accessories and treats. Linda and Maria are friendly, knowledgeable and most important caring and patient. I bring my miniature long haired dachshund to Harbor Hounds to be groomed. I am always confident Oscar will have a wonderful experience, and I never worry about him being stressed, or miss handled. They do a wonderful job taking care of all his tangles, matts, and nails. He always looks, and smells like a show dog when they are done grooming him. I highly recommend Harbor Hounds.

The groomer did next to nothing on my two long-haired dachshunds. Didn’t trim their paws or ears, their backsides or their ruffs. I could have given them a bath myself and saved $150.

I recently brought my cocker spaniel for grooming. He is very difficult and had post- COVID entire body overgrown. They did an excellent job - we will be back and I would highly recommend this place!

They are terrific with all dogs - no matter the size or age. They did a great job on our Great Dane and have the patience of a saint with our 15 year old Yorkie. The best groomers ever!

The employees are really pleasant and they actually cut my dogs nails, unlike most places that just seem to tip them. Found our new dog grooming spot!

Wonderful experience both times Ive had my shih-tzu washed and groomed.

Great cut for my dog. The male groomer is excellent!

Amazing service❤️

Excellent job with my dog. He just got the grooming of his life today. He looks like he could compete in a dog show! The icing on the cake? He actually kissed Hector (groomer extraordinaire) goodbye. Really it doesn’t get any better than that!

Wonderful very professional
