Meet the pampered pooch who has his own lavish bedroom and ensuite - and an elaborate seven-step grooming routine.<br /><br />Owner Sherry Tran, 30, bought black and white mini Bernedoodle, Oliver, three, in July 2020 and loves to spoil the pup - who she claims is "basically her child".<br /><br />After living in cramped city apartments, she bought a four-bedroom home with her boyfriend, Ray Cruz, 31, a heavy equipment operator, in May for its spacious garden for Oliver to play in. <br /><br />With a few rooms to spare, she thought it was time for Oliver to “have his own spot” - and the couple set about renovating the pooch's bedroom and bathroom.<br /><br />Oliver’s quarters are filled with amenities including a bespoke snack bar - stocked with gourmet doggie treats in mason jars - and a grooming table and ball pit which matches the markings on his fur.<br /><br />The couple treat their dog to birthday parties - including a $500 picnic and a $1,500 gathering with a professional photographer and balloon artist.<br /><br />He also has a $1,000 wardrobe - including a bathrobe, rain jacket and a puffer coat to match Sherry's with no snow boots to protect his paws.<br /><br />Sherry spends $200-a-month on the pup - for medication, homemade meals and luxury treats and chews.<br /><br />As a nail technician and aesthetician, Sherry is determined to upkeep Oliver’s appearance and keep him "beautified". <br /><br />Sherry, from Coatesville, Pennsylvania, US, said: "The renovation for his bathroom and bedroom was about $400.<br /><br />"My boyfriend did a lot of the manual labour when it came to installing things both in the bathroom and the bedroom.<br /><br />“We’re lucky he’s so handy and willing to help me make my vision come true.<br /><br />“I'm not going to bring Oliver to work if he is dirty and unkept, I have to hold him to a certain standard.<br /><br />"How am I going to have a beauty salon if my dog isn’t beautified either?"<br /><br />Sherry has a daily seven-step beauty routine for Oliver.<br /><br />She said: “In the morning we get up, I let him outside and then I go to the gym.<br /><br />"I tell him to go to bed and I give him a little treat. I then take him out to the yard to play fetch.<br /><br />“The yard has got a lot of morning dew, so his paws are really wet and dirty from all the grass and where we live there’s a lot of ticks.<br /><br />"We make sure that he has tick treatment daily.<br /><br />“I then bring him to his bathroom and put him in the bathtub to rinse off his paws with some water to lightly rinse off all the grass.<br /><br />"I always wanted this bathtub, but I lived in apartments before, and I had nowhere else to put it.<br /><br />“Then I bring him to his bedroom where he has a grooming table.<br /><br />"I dry him there with a professional high velocity blow dryer that groomers use.<br /><br />"I then comb his fur to remove any matts and moisturise his paws.<br /><br />“He will not let me cut his nails so I have to hand file his nails, so they’re always shaped in a squoval shape."
