Hours

Grooming is by appointment only.  No walk ins please as this is a home based business that caters to one client at a time.

I am typically booked several weeks to months out; please plan ahead and schedule your next grooming in advance.

• Appointments starting at 10 am, closing by 4:00 pm.
• Available weekdays currently fluctuate according to class schedules as I attend college.  Thank you for your patience.
  
• Closed weekends and major holidays. 
  
• Schedule may vary according to other factors.

• Please potty your dog before grooming, away from our house and gardens.  If your dog eliminates on Shampoodles grounds, please clean it up (we have poop bags if you need one) or tell us so we can keep our yard sanitary.  Thank you!

Directions

Shampoodles is a home-based grooming studio in the beautiful Lakes Region of New Hampshire.  We are located approximately 20 minutes from Rochester, Wolfeboro, or Gilford, and about 40 minutes from Meredith, Dover, or Concord. 

To reach us from the Alton Traffic Circle, go 2.2 miles on Rt. 28 South (towards Barnstead) past Prospect Mt. High School & Sunflower Gardens.  Turn right onto Abednego Road.  We are the first house on the left, with a large U shaped driveway. 
(Abednego is just before the intersection of Stockbridge Corner Road.) 

Shortcuts:
From Rt. 11 in New Durham you can take Berry Rd (@ Johnson's) to Valley Rd/Stockbridge Corner, then turn right onto Rt. 28 and left onto Abednego...
From Gilmanton and beyond (off Rt. 140) I suggest cutting across Coffin Brook Rd. then turning left onto Stockbridge to Rt. 28.
