The Hairy Dog
|
|
|
www.thehairydog.net
|
When we founded The Hairy Dog, we wanted to be different and stand out from the rest. We wanted to be cleaner, more accommodating and provide a fun and relaxing experience for you and your dog. We also wanted to be absolutely transparent in the price our customers pay for top quality, full service grooming.
Unlike other businesses, we wanted to avoid a model that basically boils down to the time it takes to groom a dog.
We didn't want our groomers rushing through grooms so they could get to the next one because when you emphasize being fast over being good - that's what you get - a fast cut. We wanted each dog to get the care, time and attention they needed. We knew we could do better.

Mandatory Football Meeting
April 2nd, 2018 at
6:00 pm in
AHS Auditorium
All parents, current players, incoming freshmen and transfer players will learn from Coach Taylor and the Football Boosters the plans for the 2018 season & off season.
Kerry Taylor sets sights high, ushers in new day for AHS football
from Scottsdale Independent on 3/23/18
Over the past three years the Arcadia football team has had three different head coaches, but many players think the newest installment in the recently-changing position is the right fit.
Kerry Taylor takes over an Arcadia High School program that hasn't won a game since Sept. 30, 2016, and allowed opponents to outscore it 469-29 in 2017. He also comes in to replace Tony Stillings, who spent one year leading the team before resigning.
