Meet our groomers: At Woof Gang Bakery, deep love of animals is the foundation of what makes our groomers so extraordinary. Our groomers went into dog grooming to express their love, creativity, and true expertise with pups of all ages, sizes, and needs. From nail clipping and hand-scissor techniques to removing matted hair to coloring and large-breed management, our groomers are the best in the field.
