A really useful service, shop and font of dog knowledge for disabled dog owners.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
There front entrance is step free, however it does have quite a steep slope and a lip of 2.5cm that was manageable in a manual wheelchair but some might struggle. The shop floor has some merchandise around the edges and is a bit crowded, but its a small shop and you expect that in Edinburgh and there's always someone on hand to reach things. The grooming room has a gate with an aperture of 63cm (wide enough for a 17 inch manual chair). The shop can be quite loud when the grooming room is in use and some may struggle to hear.
Accessible facilities: Step-free entrance, Single-level venue
