Local dog care service

Scenthound, a national wellness-focused dog care service which keeps dogs happy, clean and healthy, has opened in Birmingham at 745 E. Maple Road, by Kroger. Scenthound makes routine hygiene and preventive care easy and accessible. Local owners Adam and Melissa Neff said they are eager to combine Adam’s experience in dog boarding and daycare with Melissa’s background in business and accounting. The couple grew up in the Birmingham area, and are excited to be the first Scenthound owners in the state of Michigan. Founded in 2015, Scenthound, the nation’s first dog wellness concept, offers membership-based services for affordable and accessible routine dog care. Scenthound uses a wellness-based approach to improve the quality of life for dogs. Scenthound focuses on five core areas of maintenance: Skin, Coat, Ears, Nails, and Teeth, or S.C.E.N.T. Scenthound’s membership program brings dog parents peace of mind, knowing their dog is getting the care it needs on a regular basis. Owners can select a membership plan most appropriate for their dog. All memberships include the “basic hygiene” package, which includes a bath, ear cleaning, nail clip, teeth brushing and six-point wellness check, and additional services are available as needed.
