Dog Grooming & Natural Treats
Welcome to K8’s Short Bark N Sides – Professional One-to-One Dog Grooming
At K8’s Short Bark N Sides, we offer a calm and caring one-to-one grooming experience designed to leave both you and your four-legged friend smiling. With over 10 years of grooming experience, we’re proud to provide a personal, stress-free service tailored to dogs of all breeds, ages, and needs.
Our fully equipped home salon is stocked with the latest grooming equipment and top-quality, dog-friendly products chosen specifically for your pet’s coat and skin. Whether it’s a full groom, tidy-up, or a relaxing bath, we treat every dog like family.
More Than Just Grooming
We also have an in-house Doggy Deli filled with a wide selection of delicious, natural treats — perfect for rewarding good boys and girls. You can shop our treats in-salon or online, with free delivery in the CF38 area, Click & Collect, and postal options available. Visit our Doggy Deli section for more!
Outside the salon you will find our Natural dog treat cabin (featured on BBC Breakfast) packed full of delicious treats every dog will love, convenient and easy to use. Just pick your treats, calculate the amount and either pay via QR codes or pop the correct change into the cash box. Open 7 days a week and stock rotated on a weekly rotate meaning you will never have to wat for the shops to open again!
Conveniently Located
Our peaceful home salon is nestled between Cardiff and Llantrisant, just a 10-minute drive from Junction 34 of the M4 (Miskin Interchange). We’re also a short walk from local transport links from Pontypridd, Talbot Green, Pontyclun, Tonteg & Church Village, with free on-road parking right outside the salon.
Why not drop your dog off for a pamper session while you explore nearby retail parks, garden centres, or enjoy a coffee break. While your dog enjoys a spa day, you can enjoy a little “me time” too.
A Calm, Safe Space for All Dogs
Our salon includes a tranquil outdoor area where dogs can relax and explore after their groom. We welcome:
• Brachycephalic breeds (flat-faced)
• Anxious or nervous dogs
• Rescue dogs
• Dogs with disabilities
• And everything in between
At K8’s Short Bark N Sides, we’re as passionate about your dogs as you are. Whether it’s their first groom or their hundredth, we’re here to make the experience as positive and enjoyable as possible.
Book your dog’s next grooming session today – because every dog deserves to feel their best!
