Barking Mad Barbers is a dog grooming and boarding business at 5A Tawa Street, Tawa, in Wellington, and its boarding is set up as a home rather than a kennel. Dogs stay in a calm space, follow their usual routine, and get one-on-one attention. The grooming menu runs from a full bath, blow dry, brush out, full body clip, face and feet finish, nail trim, ear clean and anal gland expression, to a shorter groom with cologne. The business says prices vary for heavily matted coats. Boarding is arranged by enquiry. Bookings are made by text, and the business prefers text to calls, though it will ring back if a call is needed. Photo links and family page requests go by email. The business sends a text when a booking link is tapped, so that the message is ready to send.
