Who We Are
A husband-and-wife team obsessed with bringing out the best in every vehicle that rolls into our care.
It's personal for us.
We're Wayne and Sarah Woodman — car enthusiasts and ceramic coating specialists who turned a shared obsession into Big Dog Detail. Our roots are in New Hampshire; in 2011 we made the move to Tennessee, fell for the Greater Chattanooga area, and have called it home ever since.
A well-detailed vehicle isn't just transportation. It's a statement of pride. Our whole goal is simple: when your car leaves us, you should feel proud to show it off. We call it our operating philosophy — Leave It Better.
We actually love this.
Wayne leads our in-shop work — ceramic coatings and the high-detail jobs that take a steady hand and real expertise — and he's the voice you'll hear when you call or book. Brittany is our go-to mobile detailer and a true customer favorite, requested by name and back by popular demand.
The smiles aren't staged. We're a small, hands-on team that genuinely enjoys the work — and we think it shows in the results.
What You Can Count On
Passion for Perfection
Every swirl mark corrected, every inch polished is a testament to our commitment to excellence. We don't cut corners — we restore them.
A Customer-First Approach
From the moment you hand us your keys to the final reveal, we keep it transparent, communicative, and tailored to your vehicle.
Expertise You Can Trust
Backed by years of hands-on experience, certifications, and a team of skilled professionals — we treat your vehicle like it's our own.
The Fuel Behind Our Engine
The brand is named for our beloved Great Danes — gentle giants whose strength, grace, and loyalty are the spirit we put into every vehicle. Just as they stand out in a crowd, we aim to make every car we touch stand out on the road.
Aslan
Our main man — and yes, the lovable problem child. He's the face of the brand and the dog behind our logo, and you can catch him hanging around the shop every now and then. Aslan is 100% European, weighs in at 175 lbs, and puts away 6 cups of food a day.
Tonka
A gentle, kind soul who never met a stranger and loved everyone he met. 100% American at 140 lbs, he was old in years only — young at heart to the very end. Forever part of the Big Dog family.
A Few of Our Favorite Things
When we're not bringing cars back to life: we love to travel — Disney Cruise Line tops the list — and we spend our seasons tending an oversized garden, growing and preserving our own vegetables for the winter.
Protect your second biggest investment.
Book a detail or ceramic coating, or give us a call — we'd love to leave your vehicle better than we found it.
