Grooming
Our groomers have over 40 years
experience and their motto is:
"We groom the way you want it
done!"

That is the key behind our grooming. It doesn't matter
if you have a bichon that you want to look like a poodle
or a golden retriever you want to look like a lion. It is
your dog and we will groom it however you want it
done.

This is Carolyn with a poodle named "Gandhi", who is
owned by Mr. Nickell. Please take a look at his testimony
about his grooming experience with us:

My dogs, Max and Gandhi, have absolutely been the loves of
my entire life.  Anybody who knows me is aware of how
discriminating I am with anything having to do with Max and
Gandhi.  Here’s an example of what I mean.  Max passed
away in 2003 but  Gandhi has been on a raw food diet from
day one consisting of 75% raw organic ground meat and 25%
raw organic vegetables (10 different vegetables) made into a
puree with purified water.    He has never been sick a day in
his life and is in a vibrant state of health.  Carolyn and
everyone at Keshlyn Kennel exceed the standard of
excellence I expect.  The night before their monthly
grooming appointment, I tell them we’re going to see
Carolyn the next morning and they can’t wait.  One the
morning of the appointment, as soon as they eat, they are
jumping on the door telling me it’s time to go to Keshlyn
Kennel.  Carolyn has been the only person who has ever
groomed Max and Gandhi.  They look incredible every time
they are groomed.  Carolyn is an artist with dogs.  Sheri,
Marianne, Barb, and everyone at Keshlyn is an absolute
pleasure to deal with.  These are true dog lovers who treat
your dogs with the ultimate in care and affection.  I am
delighted to recommend these wonderful people to you.  But
be warned,  once you experience going there, nowhere else
will ever measure up.  With great gratitude, Barry Nickell,
Lexington, KY.
How to set up a
grooming
appointment:


Please give the kennel a
call and ask to schedule a
grooming appointment.
Your dog has to be current
on all vaccinations.
When
you make a grooming
appointment, we have you
drop your dog off between
8am - 9am and schedule a
time for pick up later in the
day. We can call you as
soon as they're done or
they can stay with us till
our closing time.
While
with us they will have
access to water and be
taken out for potty breaks
throughout their stay with
us.

As you can see, our kennel cats,

inspect every grooming job.
We brought Max in to be groomed last week and
he just looked beautiful!  I loved how you
trimmed around his little face and basically
captured his personality.  We got him in October
from Jessamine SAVE center and he was an
abandoned, matted, flea ridden, intestinally
infected mess.  I knew underneath he was a
little gem.  I was so right and we have become
rather smitten with him!  They had a grooming
free with the rescue and we took him straight
there to be shaved to the skin almost to get the
mats and fleas all out.  He grew back really fluffy
and I took him to a place in Nicholasville in
December.  He looked nice but nothing they did
nothing around the face and eyes that really
made him look special.  We knew of your
facility, so the next time we were ready for a
grooming, my husband called and you got us
right in.  You just did a wonderful job and he still
smells great.  I need to find out what shampoo
you used!  I wanted to include a picture we took
of him and his new do!  You just have a very
special touch that finishes off the grooming with
such style.  I will be singing your praises to
anyone who will listen.  Thank you again so
much for the time given to each pet brought in
to you and for all the tender loving care you give
each animal while they are there.

Thank you so much,

Roger and Tish Wilburn
