And we now are the FIRST in the Chicagoland area in offering the incredible new Thera-Clean microbubble technology hydrobaths that are revolutionizing pet skin treatments throughout the veterinary world.

  • Testimonials

  • 100% improvement in our Shih Tzu Max's chronic awful foot fungal infection after Love Fur Dog's amazing microbubble treatments. And such a common condition! His feet have been so bad for so long, he had become depressed, unwilling to move around on them, they were painful and bloody. Now he is walking again, jumping back to normal activity. The friendly, caring staff has really helped our beloved dog who was truly suffering. THANK YOU!

  • So incredibly happy! Same price as my old groomer- way better cut.

  • We took our puppy to Love Fur Dogs and were DELIGHTED with the entire experience. Friendly, knowledgeable owner and staff, loving environment and wonderful results. We will be returning! Love watching our girl prance around the house – she knows she looks great.
