Nestled between Pioneer and Montpelier, 13795 US HWY 20, Pioneer, April 20, 2023 saw a ribbon cutting ceremony celebrating the opening of Dirty Dog-Gone!
It is owned and operated by Eileen Brewer, Williams County Humane Society groomer, and co-owed by Tim Brewer.
With the help of their Office Manager, Sally Mapes, Dirty Dog-Gone! offers an array of services -including but not limited to- grooming, nail trimming, painting, and dremeling, and pet styling and color.
These services will be available by appointment, and regular business hours will be Monday – Friday 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. and 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Saturdays.
In the future, Eileen would like to see the addition of boarding and training services, as well as the welcoming of more staff members. She is also interested in selling pet-care supplies.
Eileen is comfortable with all breeds and ensures a stress-free environment for all visitors. She has an assortment of methods to cater to different pet-personalities, and features bathing procedures that help with coat shedding, allergies, and other skin conditions.
Eileen is passionate about helping the community better care for their pets, and so she offers great pricing, like her low-cost nail-trimming-clinic, which will be featured the first Sunday of every month.
As Eileen notes on her very active Facebook page, she is “returning to (her) passion that focuses on (the) pet’s health (and) well-being.”
Those that have questions or want to schedule an appointment for their dog, cat, rabbit, and / or other companion (it isn’t likely she’d turn any pet down), are free to contact Dirty Dog-Gone! at (567) 239 – 6804, ebrewer.dirtydog.gone@gmail.com, or message “Dirty Dog Gone” on Facebook.
Tim thanks Ted Downing, Dave Custer, and Shearer Plumbing of Bryan for all of their help in preparing the shop for this new adventure.
