i used to work for Robin… DO NOT BRING YOUR DOGS TO HER. the quality of the groom is good, but at the dogs expense. She is abusive to the animals and the staff. She INTENTIONALLY quicks dogs toenails (cutting into the tissue of the nail causing the toenails to bleed) there are so many things wrong with how she handles things. She also sits on her couch and smokes cigarettes until the bathers (me at the time) were done. I would work 12-14 hour days with literally 5 minutes to eat. She would give me 5-10 minutes to eat lunch because if I “passed out I would be useless to her”

She is great. I took my yorki ipoo just purchased to her did a great job. Now I am about to call. My mama just got a maltese in horrible shape but they will do a great job. If she has attitude it is because she cares about the dog.

Back in November, we picked up a 6 month old miniature schnauzer who was last of the litter. She was never groomed by the "breeder" and was in pretty rough shape, coat wise. Didn't get her groomed right away, spaying was a priority and then the holidays hit. Now 8 months old, took her in for grooming...wow. The owner berated us for our dog's condition, complaining about having to work with a dog that's not used to being groomed, and overall being rude. I asked if this was a bad morning and if this situation wouldn't work for her, prepared to walk out the door, but the owner begrudgingly took our dog. Upon picking up our puppy, which the owner said she had to "butcher", once again gave us the riot act and made clear she won't groom our puppy in the future....the feeling is mutual. If you have a puppy and/or never been groomed, go elsewhere. This lady does not have the heart of a teacher and bedside manners.

I’ve been using Breeder’s Choice for about 15 years for my Shi Tzu and now my poodle mix. Always pleased with the quality of work. Robin is great with the dogs - you can tell animals are her passion. I had tried Pet Smart and a couple of other places before I found Breeders Choice and had trouble with pets’ ear infections or skin issues after grooming but have never had any issues here. I have recommended BC to my sister in law (small dog) and a friend with a collie that were unhappy with their groomers; they have both been very pleased with Robin and have become regular customers as well.

I have been taking my 3 Yorkies to Robin since I moved back to North Carolina 10 years ago. She is absolutely the best groomer I have ever found. My yorkies come out of there looking like show dogs! There is NO WAY she would ever treat the dogs poorly. She loves all her clients, and his a BIG HEART for all animals. This is evidenced by the fact that all tips she receives go to the Humane Society to help other animals, and by all the stray cats she takes care of that hang

We have been going to BREEDERS CHOICE since 1999. Our Golden Lab Retriever Savannah loved being pampered by Robin. We enjoyed the gentle and loving care that was shown towards our pet. In 2010 we were fortunate enough to have our two Yorke-Poos start their grooming visits with Robin. Robin has always treated our pets with love and gentleness. We are grateful for her devoted care given to Dolly and Molly. Yorke-Poos are not the easiest to groom but they always look beautiful when picked up. All of the animals in Robyn’s care are treated with love. We highly recommend Robyn and her grooming salon. We give her and the doggie salon a ten times ten.

I was thrilled to find Robin approximately 15 years ago to groom our standard poodle Sabene. Robin is a PROFESSIONAL groomer; worked years with dog show professionals grooming and showing, in the care she takes of any pet that comes into her shop, their safety, and working with owners to get their dogs accustomed to being groomed. For anybody that states she "grooms" my dog sadly lacks knowledge of her expertise and experience. Sabene loved her "spa day" to the point I tried to hide she was going until I was ready to put her in the car. When we added a new standard poodle to our family I was so fortunate, our puppy also, that Robin took time to teach me to work with Ami so grooming is just part of her day's routine. Of course, Ami is just as bad about wanting to get into the car to go when she has "spa day". I've been more than fortunate for Robin to share knowledge to make grooming easier at home for me as well as having a calmer dog. I'll just say Ami is a little more hard headed than Sabene was. I am always AMAZED after our dogs spa days at how breathtakingly beautiful they are. We often have others ask us if our dogs are show dogs. That pretty much says it all!!

Do not take your dog here. We had to bandage our dogs toe it was bleeding so much but the worst thing is he is miserable from clipper burn. The burn is so severe we are going to have to take him to our vet. On top of this she is very rude and talks very negatively about your pet.

From the first time I took my puppy and picked him up I knew this was the only place that I would ever go to get him groomed. Vader is always well taken care of by Robin and her staff. He is treated with patience and respect. He learns every visit about how to like grooming, and we also learn with tidbits of useful information about caring for a puppy. I would recommend Breeders Choice as a A++++ or 5 star experience.

My experience with the staff and operator of Breeders Choice can be said in very simple words. Just so nice and professional in service and attitude toward my dogs. I appreciate the detail of the work done and also the ability of the staff and Robin to tell me of the total overview of my animals and what they might find needing to be applied for the benefit of my pets. From brushing of the teeth to the cutting of nails.

Robin & her assistants are the best. My Yorkies love going to the "spa". I have to wait until the last minute to tell Jazzy & Sparkle where we are going or they will jump up and down and bark continuously until we get into the car. I depend on Robin for advice on taking care of my girls. She is always so helpful and patient with all my questions. I highly recommend Breeder's Choice.
