Shed Happens Dog Grooming

I wanted to take a moment to say..

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I don’t say it enough!

I’m in my eighteenth year of owning a full time salon and eight year of running two very busy locations with an amazing clientele! It’s a lot of work and dedication, but all worth it!

Although I’m not taking new clients, your Facebook tags, shout outs and referrals don’t go unnoticed!

And to those who continue to support my rescue partner and I’s animal welfare work being done in Cardston with Cardston Lend-A-Paw.. THANK YOU, as well! Your donations towards vet care and supplies are making a difference in the world of homeless cats and dogs there! ❤️

Help us help them if you are able!

Thanks to our shelter partners who donate food for area pets and strays, we are able to help low income owners and community members (neighbouring as well) who need help feeding hungry pets and strays who are waiting for placement with city rescues!

It takes a village!

LATE ARRIVALS & NO SHOW POLICY!

Please, please, PLEASE arrive on time for your appointment! Clients who show up 15 minutes late (will be cancelled) OR are NO SHOWS will need to pay a $50 fee in order to be rebooked.

My time is valuable! It’s wages lost and not fair to me or other dogs needing haircuts in this heat!

Thanks,
Annick

I could write a novel about this!
MINUS the breeder part!

I LOVE treating rescue dogs to a day of pampering, so when one of my favourite clients told me that “we did a thing” news (finally 😜) - I was all in!

Little Miss R was terribly compacted with dead hair, so a good hour combing and blowing out pre bath was needed to ensure my bathing products and spray conditioners would reach her incredibly dry skin.

WOW! What a transformation!

*EDIT* because many of you are asking privately, this is one of the dogs left tied up and abandoned at a local area shelter.

If you love a true rescue story, follow Homer and all
of his shenanigans.

My client (now friend) has always had a deep love for pugs, so when she had the itch to adopt another and couldn’t find any in rescue, I reluctantly went on kijiji to see if any rescues were advertising there.
Instead, I found Homer, a stud dog shunned to the backyard, unwanted and only worth $300. Ashley Reekie immediately set out to rescue him.
He was plagued with many health issues, including severe hip dysplasia and will eventually need the help of his donated wheels to get around. Ashley has paid for the majority of his vet care with gofundme donations!

Miraculous little man and one hell of a dog lover as an owner!

I have a variety of dog bandanas generously donated by Nancy Hinch!

$5 each or donation of your choice

All proceeds will go to cat food that Cardston and area feral colonies need to make it through the winter!

Can be picked up at my Cardston location (the back of Foothills Vet) or at my Cowley location next week!

It’s that time of year again!
Please make sure your dog(s) has been pretreated with a preventative of your choice prior to grooming!

The rescue is full, so trying to help this big guy out.

He’s 1.5 and needs an acreage or farm to live on! He is going to al make someone very happy! He is an absolute love, but likes his space outside!

Thank you to Cindy and Mike from RONA in Pincher Creek for their continued support in assisting with pet food to feed hungry dogs and cats in the Cardston area.

Your generosity over the years is so very appreciated! ❤️

* PLEASE BE AWARE THAT MY ABILITY TO SCHEDULE NEW APPOINTMENT REQUESTS DUE TO WORK SCHEDULE CHANGES, HOLIDAYS, CANCELLED APPOINTMENTS OR NO SHOWS IS NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME! *

I am booked solid 2.5 months in advance and would like to have some time off this summer with my family! I work VERY long hours at both locations trying to keep my clients happy. I’m a service provider, but I’m also a person.

IF YOU HAVE AN APPOINTMENT, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU PLAN TO MAKE IT OR YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT.

Thank you!
Annick

FRED aka FWED

Always sitting nice like a good boy after his much anticipated groom with me!

06/06/2023

* ATTENTION CLIENTS *

FULL PAYMENT DUE SAME DAY OF SERVICE/DROP-OFF unless previously arranged prior to appointment!

I have financial obligations and am having to implement this for many reasons, one of them is having to chase people for payment and feeling like I’m a nuisance! I work HARD and LONG hours taking care of my clients.

If you cannot pay same day of service, please let me know so we can reschedule.

THANK YOU!
Annick
