Mats & tangles
Mats you can't brush out
We work through tangles gently, or do a short reset cut when that's kinder to the skin.
Fresh, fluffy, and happy to see you.
A family-owned grooming studio in Westminster, Colorado for every breed, from Yorkies to huskies. Patient hands, fair prices, and dogs that come home relaxed.

Why owners come to us
Every coat has its own trouble spot.
Whatever your dog walks in with, we'll talk it through first and groom for their coat, their comfort, and the look you want.
Heavy shedding
Fur all over the house
A de-shed bath and high-velocity blowout pull out the loose undercoat here, not on your couch.
Nervous & senior dogs
A dog who needs patience
Small studio, calm pace. Owners tell us their dogs come home relaxed, not stressed.

FAQ
Good to know before you visit.
Still have a question? Call us at (303) 428-3848 during shop hours.
Do you groom big dogs?
Yes. We groom all breeds, from Yorkies to huskies and Bernese mixes. Tell us the size when you book so we can plan the time.
How much does a groom cost?
It depends on size, coat type, and condition. Matted coats take longer. Call with your dog's breed and we'll give you a price before you book.
What payment do you take?
Cash or check.
Do I need an appointment?
Yes, grooming is by appointment. Call (303) 428-3848. We can often get you in within a day or two.
What are your hours?
Tuesday through Saturday, 8 AM to 5 PM. Closed Sunday and Monday.
How long does a groom take?
Most grooms take a few hours, depending on the dog and the service. We'll give you an estimate at drop-off and let you know when your pup is ready.
My dog is matted. Can you help?
Yes. We'll check the coat and talk with you first. Sometimes mats brush out; sometimes a short shave-down is kinder to the skin, and the coat grows back healthy.
Is my older or nervous dog okay with you?
That's a lot of our regulars. We're a small, family-run studio. We go slow and take breaks when a dog needs one.
Where are you located?
4955 W 72nd Ave, Unit I, in the Hidden Lake Shopping Center in Westminster, CO 80030, near the Ace Hardware.
Ready for a fresh pup?

This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect through our website, why we collect it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and the choices and rights you have, including those under the Colorado Privacy Act (“CPA”).
By using our website you acknowledge this policy. If you do not agree with it, please do not submit information through the site; you can always reach us by phone instead.
1. Information we collect
Information you give us
Our website has a callback request form. When you submit it, we collect:

We ask only for what we need to call you back and quote or schedule a grooming appointment. Please do not include sensitive information, such as financial account numbers or health information about yourself, in the form.
Information collected automatically
If you give consent through our cookie banner, analytics and marketing tools may collect technical and usage data such as your IP address, device and browser type, approximate location, pages viewed, time on page, referring site, and interactions such as clicks and scrolling. See our Cookie Policy for details. If you decline these tools, they do not load.
Information we do not collect
We do not offer accounts or logins. We do not process online payments; we accept cash or check only, in person. We do not knowingly collect sensitive data as defined by the CPA, and we do not collect information from children (see section 9).
2. How we use information

- To operate, secure, and troubleshoot the website.
- With your consent, to understand how visitors use the site and to improve it (analytics).
- With your consent, to measure and improve our advertising (marketing tools).
- To comply with legal obligations and to protect our rights.
We do not use your information for automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects, and we do not build profiles of you for such purposes.
3. Who we share information with
We do not sell your name, phone number, or dog information for money. We share information only as follows:
| Recipient | Purpose | Data |
|---|---|---|

Our providers may only use your information to provide services to us and are not permitted to use it for their own unrelated purposes, except where the tool’s own terms apply to data collected through it after you consent.
4. “Sale,” “sharing,” and targeted advertising
Under the CPA, disclosing data to an advertising technology provider in exchange for value, or using it for targeted advertising, can count as a “sale” or “targeted advertising.” Marketing tools such as the Meta Pixel may do this. These tools load only if you consent, and you can opt out at any time as described in section 7.
5. Consent and Global Privacy Control
Analytics and marketing technologies are off by default and load only after you accept them in our cookie banner. We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal and treat it as a valid request to opt out of the sale of personal data and targeted advertising for the browser or device that sends it. You can change your cookie choices at any time using the cookie settings link on our site or by clearing your browser data.
6. Retention
- Callback request details: kept until your request is resolved and for up to 24 months afterward so we can handle follow-up questions and scheduling, unless you become a customer, in which case we keep grooming records for the length of the relationship and a reasonable period after.
- Analytics data: kept according to the settings we configure, no longer than 14 months in Google Analytics, and in aggregated form thereafter.

Accessibility Statement
Barkin Barbers wants everyone, including people with disabilities, to be able to find our services and contact us. We are committed to making our website usable and accessible to as many people as possible.
Our commitment
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to people with visual, hearing, motor, and cognitive disabilities, and they also make the site easier for everyone to use. We also work to meet the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Colorado law regarding accessible digital services.
What we have done
- Structure: pages use semantic HTML with a logical heading order and landmark regions so screen readers and other assistive technology can navigate them.
- Keyboard access: all links, buttons, and form fields can be reached and used with a keyboard, with a visible focus indicator.
- Color and contrast: text and interactive elements are designed to meet AA contrast ratios, and information is not conveyed by color alone.
- Readable text: text can be enlarged up to 200 percent through browser zoom without loss of content or function, and the layout adapts to small screens.
- Forms: the callback request form uses visible labels, clear instructions, and error messages that describe the problem.
- Images: meaningful images have text alternatives, and decorative images are hidden from assistive technology.
- Motion: we respect the “reduce motion” setting on your device and avoid content that flashes.
- Consent controls: our cookie banner and settings can be operated by keyboard and screen reader.
- Phone alternative: everything you can do on the site, including requesting a callback, you can also do by phone.
Ongoing work
Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We review pages when we add or change content, test with keyboard navigation and common screen readers, and correct issues as we find them. Some content, such as embedded maps or third-party tools, is provided by others and may not fully meet WCAG 2.2 AA. We work to choose accessible options and to offer an alternative, such as our phone number and street address, when we cannot.
Known limitations
Despite our efforts, some parts of the site may not yet be fully accessible. If you find a barrier, please tell us so we can fix it. We cannot promise the site is free of all issues at all times.
Report a problem or request help
If you have trouble using any part of this site, or need information in another format, contact us and tell us:
- The page or feature where you had the problem
- What happened, and what you were trying to do
- The device, browser, and any assistive technology you use
We will acknowledge your message within two business days and aim to respond with a solution or workaround within ten business days.

Date of this statement
This statement was last updated on November 11, 2026. Our practices are described in good faith and will be updated as the site changes.
Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Barkin Barbers uses cookies and similar technologies on our website, and how you can control them. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage, and software code that collect information about your device and activity. Some are set by us (first-party) and some by other companies (third-party).
2. Our consent approach
Only essential technologies run automatically. All analytics and marketing technologies are blocked until you choose to allow them in our cookie banner. You can accept all, decline non-essential, or choose by category. Declining does not limit your ability to use the site or to request a callback. We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as an opt-out of marketing technologies and of the sale or sharing of personal data.
3. Types of cookies we use
| Category | Purpose | Consent needed |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Make the site work, remember your cookie choices, and keep the site secure. Cannot be turned off. | No |
| Analytics | Help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. | Yes |
| Marketing | Measure the effectiveness of our advertising and may help show relevant ads on other platforms. | Yes |
4. Specific tools
Google Tag Manager
Google Tag Manager (GTM) is a tool that lets us manage the tags on our site. GTM itself does not collect analytics data, but it controls whether other tags fire. We configure it so analytics and marketing tags run only after you consent.
Google Analytics 4 (analytics)
Google Analytics 4 (GA4), provided by Google, reports on pages viewed, traffic sources, device and browser type, and approximate location. It uses cookies such as _ga and _ga_*, which typically last up to two years, though we limit data retention to 14 months. Learn more at Google’s policy page. You can also install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Microsoft Clarity (analytics)
Microsoft Clarity shows us how visitors interact with pages through aggregated heatmaps and anonymized session replays, which helps us find confusing layouts. Clarity sets cookies such as _clck and _clsk. We configure it to mask form fields, so your name, phone number, and other form entries are not recorded. See the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
Meta Pixel (marketing), if enabled
We may use the Meta Pixel to measure the results of ads on Facebook and Instagram. If enabled, it loads only after you consent to marketing cookies, and may set cookies such as _fbp. Meta may use that information as described in the Meta Privacy Policy. We do not send your callback form details to Meta.
The cookie names and lifetimes above are typical for these services and may change as providers update their products.
5. How to control cookies
- Our cookie settings: use the cookie settings link in the site footer or banner to change your choices at any time. Withdrawing consent stops further collection but does not undo data already collected.
- Global Privacy Control: turn on GPC in a supporting browser or extension, and we will treat it as an opt-out of marketing tags.
- Browser settings: most browsers let you block or delete cookies. See your browser’s help pages for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the site works.
- Do Not Track: there is no common standard for Do Not Track signals, so we rely on GPC and our consent banner.
- Advertising choices: you can opt out of interest-based advertising at optout.aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.com.
6. Your rights
As a Colorado resident you may have rights to access, correct, delete, and opt out of the sale of your personal data, including data collected through cookies. See our Privacy Policy for how to exercise them.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add or remove tools or when the law changes. The effective date above shows the latest version. If we add a new category of tracking, we will ask for your consent again.
