Am I taking new clients? 😃

Well, I’m not not taking new clients.

I get this question regularly, because there were a couple of years when I was maxed out. And while business is fairly steady, I do now occasionally have a couple appointments available to whoever can fill them.

So, should you or a friend be looking for a groomer, feel free to send me a message! If I can make it work, then I will!

When your brother has fomo 😆 Basil didn’t want to be left out, so he hopped on the table while I was blow drying Sadie ❤️

Hello friends!

The total solar eclipse is just around the corner, and just about everyone is ready to see the once in a lifetime event. We are seeing some mixed information about pet/wildlife safety.

Contrary to what some may read, the sun itself is not any more dangerous during the eclipse. The reason protective eye wear is recommended for humans (who wish to observe the eclipse) is because many of us will be staring directly at the sun that day, which is something we typically avoid.

For our pets, and outdoor wildlife, that day will be similar to any other day. Our pets don’t stare at the sun, so there is no need to keep them indoors on April 08 for any extended period of time. They may notice the change in temperature, but it is unlikely they will exhibit any unusual behaviour.

The eclipse can be more unsettling for birds. The dimming of the sky can mimic behaviour at dusk and during early storm formation, so some birds may demonstrate a wind-down behaviour and there may be less activity in the sky during the peak eclipse. Once the sky returns to normal, so does their behaviour.

If you are purchasing eclipse glasses, please make sure they meet these criteria. For additional information about the eclipse please see:
https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/safety/

For a list of approved solar-viewing goggles please see:

It is not safe to watch the eclipse through the lens of your smartphone - it can damage both your phone camera and your eyes. Try this instead:

Safe watching our friends!

Get well soon Mr River, aka Yosemite Sam. Poor guy just had surgery for a torn ligament, and this isn’t his first rodeo! He’ll be plenty loved and pampered over the next few weeks. ❤️‍🩹

Bandanas! My supplier didn’t have any wintery/snowflake patterns available, so I have a variety of other options. What’s your favorite? Do you have a favorite pattern from the past that you wish could make a comeback?
