About the Salon

A relaxed, purpose-built grooming studio in Whitewell Road

Tucked into the Throne Centre on Whitewell Road, Absolutely Barking is built around one idea: grooming should never be stressful for your dog. Every visit starts with a friendly hello and a basic health check — coat, skin, and a feel over for any lumps or bumps — before your dog is bathed in our purpose-built tub using natural shampoos.

From a quick tidy-up to a full head-to-tail groom, everything is done at your dog's pace, in a calm space designed to keep tails wagging.

Purpose-built bathing area & natural shampoos
Basic health check included with every groom
Gentle, unhurried handling for nervous dogs
Convenient Newtownabbey location off Whitewell Road
