I am Kynlee Dixon, the proud owner of Hound Town Grooming Spaw. I am originally from Weatherford, Texas. You are about to read my story and how my high level of standards came to fruition. Thank you for being a part of my journey! ​
​
The Birth of Hound Town Grooming Spaw:
As I was searching for a job in college, I knew I wanted to work with dogs. With a long history of raising show livestock and working in veterinary clinics, animal care has always been my passion. I began working at a dog daycare facility as a kennel technician and dog bather. It was a great entry-level position, but I quickly realized where my true interest was.
​
For eight months, I trained under a professional groomer to learn the fundamentals of pet grooming. When her business ultimately closed, I made the decision to take a leap of faith and open my own grooming business.
​
In 2023, at 18 years old, I signed a lease on my first Hound Town Grooming Spaw location, in Dublin, Texas, while also juggling being a full time student at both Tarleton State University and Weatherford College. Let me tell you, it took a lot of courage, dedication, and a big ol’ dream. I then focused on improvement of my craft, getting involved in pet care professional memberships and taking part in continuing education opportunities. I am blessed to say my business in Dublin was extremely successful.
​
Shortly after I opened Hound Town Grooming Spaw in Dublin, I obtained my associates degree from Weatherford College.
​​​
In January of 2025, I relocated and opened my second Hound Town Grooming Spaw location in Collinsville, Texas. I graduated from Tarleton State University in May 2025 with my Bachelors Degree in General Studies. (Go Texans!)
​
High Standards:
I have built my business on a foundation of believing that grooming should be a pleasant experience for both dog and groomer. Working with thousands of dogs over the last four years of my career, I have strived to create a comforting and nurturing environment, to teach them that grooming can be, and SHOULD be an enjoyable experience. I make sure they know they are loved and in good hands while in my shop. It is my honor to be your best friend's groomer!
To ensure high standards and an exceptional level of professionalism, I am a proud member of the Texas Professional Pet Groomers Association (TPPGA) and a proud member of the International Professional Groomers, Inc. (IPG). I have recently decided to extend my passion for grooming and leadership within the industry, as I have applied to serve as a committee member for TPPGA, as well as a host salon for educational grooming events.
​
In September 2025, I officially earned my IPG Professional Groomer Certification. This milestone represents continued commitment to providing safe, skilled, and compassionate care for every dog entrusted to me. (Did you know that less than 3% of groomers in the world are certified?) Raising the bar and providing exemplary service is what we do best. I am currently enrolled in IPG's Advanced Professional Groomer program to obtain my APG, which displays even higher levels of skill and technique.
​
I am also a Certified Canine Esthetician (CCE), Pet CPR & First Aid Certified, and fully-insured. ​

You can rest assured knowing that you chose the absolute best grooming experience for your beloved companions.
