At RUFF, we don’t operate like your average grooming salon. From the moment you step inside our doors to the moment your dog struts out, their experience (and yours!) is a cut above.

RUFF functions solely as a 1-on-1 experience.  We don’t book more appointments than our modest staff of two (2) can handle, meaning at most, there are only two (2) dogs in the salon at once! At RUFF, we vaalue quality of care over quantity of dogs. 

RUFF books dogs by appointment only. We limit the amount of dogs we groom in a day and space out each appointment. Gone are the days of dropping off your dog and waiting hours on end for them to be ready for pick-up. Gone are the days of picking up your stressed and anxious dog because they were waiting in a loud environment, packed with other barking dogs.   Gone are the days of having to pay an “express fee” to have your dog groomed immediately when they arrive. RUFF is designed to eliminate all of these issues and many more by booking dogs by appointment only. Their appointment is dedicated to them and them only!

RUFF specializes in professional hand-scissor grooming techniques and has dedicated hours upon hours of training to finesse this rare craft. We pride ourselves in being able to give your pups a beautiful & personalized hand-scissor haircut. Here at RUFF, we aren’t just another grooming salon that will shave every dog coming through the door.

RUFF's two (2) employees are 100% certified in our field and we display our certifications with pride. As pet parents ourselves, we understand how important it is to trust the person you’re leaving your fur baby with. At RUFF, we pride ourselves in making you feel comfortable, knowing your dogs are under the best of care!

RUFF is a cage-free environment - creating a calm, enjoyable and stress-free experience is our goal for every pup coming through our doors.

We are proud to say that despite being a young business of just four (4) years, RUFF has begun to acquire some well-deserved attention. RUFF is presently a 5x award winning business currently holding the titles of: TOP CHOICE Pet Grooming Services 2025, KPMG Small Business of the Year with the 2024 Oakville Awards for Business Excellence, and CANADIAN CHOICE AWARD Best Pet Grooming Services 2024 as well as 2025! In June 2025, it was announnced that RUFF THE DOG BARBERSHOP INC. was the Platinum winner for CommunityVotes Oakville Pet Grooming. RUFF has been featured in West of The City Magazine, Look Local Magazine, been featured on an Oakville-based podcast highlighting exceptional local businesses, and has had a recent feature in February 2025 on Halton News.
