Large breeds

Shepherds, retrievers or St. Bernards — often turned away elsewhere — are welcome here.

We also care for pets most salons don’t take — gently and without stress.

No sedation

We never sedate or use tranquillisers. Just patience and respect.

The salon is run by a trained cynologist — she understands the behaviour of even the biggest dog.

Our speciality

Large breeds that other salons have no time for

Large dogs need space, strength and patience. We built our salon around exactly them — and thanks to a background in cynology, we know how to keep them calm.

  • De-shedding treatment for double coats — without shaving, which damages the coat.
  • A proper bath and thorough drying even for big dogs, with products suited to the coat.
  • Calm handling of strong and nervous dogs — without sedation.

Under all that fur, even the biggest dog is just a sweetheart. I treat every animal with respect — not with a stopwatch in my hand.

Mária Cirbusová

A cynologist from Košice with a university degree in cynology (UVLF Košice) who completed the Dog Instructor Academy 2025/26. She speaks English.

The salon is named after Algor — a pit bull who taught me that behind a breed’s reputation there is an individual personality. I want every single pet to feel good with me.
