While humans can easily groom themselves, dogs lack opposable thumbs, making it difficult for them to hold a razor and shave their back fur into a lightning bolt. Give dogs the style assistance they need with today's Groupon: for $40, you get a dog grooming service at Paws & Claws (an $80 value). Choose from the following six locations: Bradford, Oakville, Simcoe, Timmins, Toronto, or Welland.

The adroit canine coiffeurs at Paws & Claws beautify unkempt hounds with an array of relaxing and gentle grooming services. A groom sequence commences with an aromatherapy shampoo and wash to give fur a lustrous, licked-clean glow. Experienced groomers then administer a haircut and nail trimming to keep fur tidy and furniture unscathed. Included in the grooming is a doggie massage, which leaves a best friend rejuvenated and, unlike an octopus massage, the practitioner un-inked. The primping process concludes with the affixing of a fashion bandana and the mouthwatering reward of an organic doggie snack. The genial groomers at Paws & Claws have years of experience prettifying many dog breeds and temperaments. The grooming process usually takes one to two hours, depending on the breed, amount of time since the last grooming, and how chatty dogs are about their latest fling with a fire hydrant.
