Welcome to Dog Tales Grooming & Pet Care, serving the Portland, East Hampton, Middletown and South Glastonbury areas of Connecticut since 2008.  Dog Tales is owned and operated by Michael and Louise Walsh.  Four years ago we turned our love for dogs into a career, and have been happy to meet and care for your dogs since then.  Our background includes years of personal and professional experience handling animals.  We feel priveleged to be entrusted with their care, and truly enjoy getting to know you all.  In short, we love our jobs.  We have recently moved up the street to 311 Main Street in Portland, and are excited for you to see our new salon.

We offer full service dog grooming, featuring Nature’s Specialties all natural spa products, as well as South Bark’s Blueberry Facial.  Dogs of all breeds and coat types are welcome.  We have products and techniques to address all of your concerns about coat and skin conditions, from fleas to skunks, from dry skin to oily coat.  Trim styles and pricing depend upon breed and coat style.

Dog Tales offers personalized dog training courses, at the convenience of your schedule, in your home.  In-home dog training allows your dog more comfort and fewer distractions from learning.  It also allows us to observe your dog’s behavior in familiar surroundings, where daily problem behaviors may occur.  Our training methods are based in the Positive Reinforcement tradition.

In-home pet-sitting allows your pets to remain in the comfort of your home while you travel.  During our visits to your home, we’ll walk your dogs or give them some yard time, we’ll feed them and dispense medicine when necessary.  There is never an extra charge for lovins.  We’ll also care for your kitties and other pets as well.

Please take a moment to poke around our new website, and call or stop by with any questions you may have.  We’d love to see you!  Also, please consider submitting your tale, every dog lover has one to wag.
