Diane,
OF the two, I prefer Candlewick.
BUT... there is a groomer in Glastonbury, a male groomer (which won't work for Khabo as he has man issues), they are small and do a limited number of dogs. If I remember correctly, they also need you to pick up as soon as the dog is done because they don't crate (which is an aspect I like about them....) They are "Animal Bath and Burrow". A friend brought a very skittish female Landseer to him and he was fantastic with her.....
