D.O.G. Automotive

Feb 05, 2025

Consistently provides friendly and effective help and fair pricing. Does not try to push unnecessary services, but helpfully notes what might be worth looking at on a future visit.

Brought my car in at 11:45 am and Blandon quickly determined I needed two new tires and an alternator. Price was extremely fair and I got my car back at 5 pm that same day. Super personable and honest experience. Highly highly recommend.

Went from being on the phone with them to having my issue fixed in a few minutes.

Every auto shop should aspire to be like D.O.G. -- honest, no-nonsense, reasonably priced, KIND, upfront, and with excellent turnaround times. I've gotten a valve cover gasket replacement and transmission oil change here for my 2004 Lexus, both times the work was fantastic and during the oil change they noticed my sunroof drains were clogged (and causing leaks inside the car) and they fixed it for FREE. I seriously walk away from working with them feeling indebted because of how good the service and price is. Extremely blessed to have this place walking distance from where I live, makes it so easy to get my car serviced here. Thank you!!!

Best mechanic experience I’ve ever had. Helped with small EVAP leak and fixed issues to make sure I could pass emissions. Timely and inexpensive. Was recommended to go here and will recommend everyone I know. Thank you D.OG.

Blandon, the owner, was amazing and so personable! My engine light came on at 10am, I was able to call D.O.G. Automotive at 12pm (he was able to squeeze me in) and had my car fixed and returned by 5pm. Seriously will not go anywhere else moving forward and telling everyone to go here! Thank you so much!!

Hands down best shop in atlanta. I got quotes for $1200, then $700, then DOG Automotive did it for under $550. Been coming here for 5-years and is always the best price and great service and super honest. The owner and Alphonso are good folks.

Good service and prices.

I love this place and these guys! They’re honest, and I trust them with my car. They’re also a great value. Atlanta may be a big town, but this was small town personalized service.

Aug 06, 2024

They got me in very quickly and did a good job changing my oil. There’s not much else to say other than there is a place to wait. It is not very nice but getting out of the car and the heat to wait was appreciated. Polite and friendly technician.

I was recently having car troubles including a power issue and my engine light coming on. I don't have the most trust when it comes to mechanics and was dreading having to take my car in. My friend recommended this place to me and I live down the street so I decided to take the chance. I could not be more thankful I did. When I arrived, I was immediately taken care of and the mechanic (I forgot his name!) tightened a loose terminal on my battery. For the engine light he tried to get me fixed up without any part replacements but we ultimately determined an oxygen sensor would have to be replaced. He told me to come back in a couple more days, which I did, and again, he dropped everything to get it replaced for me (knowing I was down to just a few days left to get my emissions done) and that did the trick. The same day I was able to get my test done and pass. No issues since (this was 3 weeks ago) and the cost was very reasonable. I will absolutely go back. He has restored my faith. Thank you!!

If I could give this business 10 stars I would. I called in for an oil change and was taken care of right away. I needed 1 thing done and the owner gave me advice on all what needs to be done with my car. He was far, honest and trustworthy. If you need anything done with your car this is a great man to trust

Blandon is the best in Atlanta. I had been using my dealership for years, but Blandon was able to address the root issue with a headlight problem I was having. I have since been using him for all things car. He's knowledgeable, personable and honest. His work has kept my car running beautifully and saved me literally thousands of dollars.

Called and had an appointment setup a few days later. Owner was super easy to deal with and my service was completed in a few hours as promised. Very competitive pricing. Highly recommend.

Feb 06, 2024

Called for an appointment and got in the next week. Prompt and to the point service. Gentleman have me a few tips about my car maintenance. Happy with service!

Feb 06, 2024

Cannot thank Blandon enough - my check engine light was on & my car was having problems accelerating, etc. He fit me in the same day I called, diagnosed the problem immediately (which ended up being an easy 1 minute fix,) and didn't even charge me. I would recommend him to anyone who asks. Thank you so, so much!

Feb 06, 2024

Great service. They really care about you and fixing your problem here.

Feb 06, 2024

Service is always timely and straightforward. Blandon is kind and willing to work with you. Haven't had any negative experiences and have been going to him for about 2 1/2 years. Would highly recommend going here!

Feb 06, 2024

Super cool guy, ex-marine. He has some great stories to tell too. Best of all, my car problem was fixed.

Feb 06, 2024

100% lives up to all the good reviews

Feb 06, 2024

Best mechanic in the city. Honest, efficient, professional, fast. Can’t recommend them enough.

Feb 06, 2024

Blandon does great work for a great price. I will definitely be back!

Feb 06, 2024

Blandon is the best mechanic in Atlanta. He is easy to work with and he will not upcharge. He is very honest! Blandon has worked on all of my vehicles. This is an awesome automotive repair shop.

Feb 06, 2024

Blandon is the master mechanic and a former veteran. He's amazing with the cars, honest, and doesn't mess around. The job gets done and the prices are fair. HIGHLY recommend.

Feb 06, 2024

Brand new in town and took care of me with clear communication, fast turnaround and good prices.

Feb 06, 2024

Brandon is THE best! He can out perform the work of any major company in the city. If you get an appointment with Brandon then you are getting the best service in the city!

I moved to Atlanta a couple of months ago and was nervous to look for a mechanic when my front tires started making a high-pitched metallic grinding noise. I googled "mom and pop mechanics Atlanta" and D.O.G. Automotive was towards the top of the list that appeared and they had great reviews. I called, left a voicemail, and they returned my call within an hour or so. Due to the issue (needed new brake pads) Blandon offered to squeeze me into the busy schedule. When I arrived he explained everything to me from the process of what he would be doing, to the pricing; the turnaround time was quick, to boot. It's so important to build relationships like this when it comes to your vehicle. I will definitely be bringing my car back here when she needs fixing next. Thank you Blandon!

Just had a car serviced at DOG...very impressed! I have a son going to school in Atlanta, we will be using DOG service over the next few years. Thanks 1/24 Another great service. Fixed a bad motor mount that I’m convinced had been there for years and numerous mechanics. Highly recommended!

The man is good

Feb 06, 2024

The trust I’ve been looking for in a mechanic. Blandon is very nice and personable. He explained everything thoroughly, gave me a timeline of things to look forward to “to be more informed”. It’s relieving knowing I have a place to come back to that’s doing honest and good work.

Feb 06, 2023

Blandon is great. I went to Toyota world for service and they gave a me a super expensive quote for repairs on my Camry. I went to his shop and he was able to do it for less than half that and it took way less time than I would have at Toyota world. He is very honest, fair, and professional. Would recommend to anyone.

Feb 06, 2023

He is so kind and helpful!!!

Feb 06, 2023
