Best of Everything Doggie

If you know me, you are well aware of my complete and utter love of animals. I must admit, I generally like them more than most people. (I kid;)
My dog Coco is a rescue and was abused before I got her- so I can't just drop her off at any dog groomer or dog park because her social anxiety and fear truly get the best of her- so I'm extremely picky and research the heck out of a place before I make an appointment. Many of you have asked me for the best places to take your little guys, so I have decided to compile a list of my favorite doggie/cat destinations. Enjoy!

Best Vet:

Sherman Oaks Veterinary Group:
