🐾Breed of the Month ft. Daisy🐾

German Shepherds are a highly intelligent and versatile dog breed, originally developed in Germany in the late 19th century by Captain Max von Stephanitz to be the ideal working dog.

Known for their loyalty, strength, and trainability, they excel in various roles, including herding, search and rescue, police work, and as service dogs. Their protective nature and strong bond with their families make them exceptional companions, but they require regular exercise and mental stimulation to thrive.

They have a distinctive double coat, often in black and tan, though other colors like sable and all-black are also common. German Shepherds have moderate grooming needs due to their double coat, which consists of a dense undercoat and a weather-resistant outer coat. They shed year-round, with heavier shedding occurring twice a year during seasonal coat changes, often referred to as “blowing their coat.” Regular brushing helps remove loose hair and prevents matting.

❗️Important Update to the Late Policy ❗️

Due to the busy holiday season and the fully booked schedule, I’m temporarily adjusting the late policy. While I typically allow a 15-minute grace period, I can now only accommodate up to 5 minutes late for appointments.

If you believe you’ll be more than 5 minutes late or are unable to make your appointment, please let me know as soon as possible so we can adjust accordingly.

As always the no show policy is still in effect.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this busy time! I truly appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you. 🐶🎄

🐾Breed of the Month ft. Maya🐾

Beagles are a small to medium-sized breed of hound known for their keen sense of smell and tracking abilities. Originally bred for hunting, they are energetic, curious, and friendly dogs that make great companions. Beagles are also known for being social and good with families, but they require regular exercise and mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy.

Beagles have short, dense coats that require minimal grooming. Regular brushing once or twice a week helps keep their coat clean and reduces shedding, monthly/bimonthly baths can keep them smelling fresh and shedding less as well. They also need routine ear cleaning due to their floppy ears, which can trap moisture and lead to infections.

🐾Breed of the Month: ft. Gus!🐾

Bernese Mountain Dogs are large, gentle giants known for their friendly and affectionate nature. Originating from the Swiss Alps, they were traditionally used as working dogs, helping with tasks like herding cattle and pulling carts. Bernese Mountain Dogs are intelligent, loyal, and especially great with families, making them wonderful companions. However, they require regular exercise and grooming due to their size and coat.

Bernese Mountain Dogs have thick, double-layered coats that require regular grooming to keep them healthy and clean. Weekly brushing is essential to remove loose fur and prevent matting, especially during their seasonal shedding periods. Their long fur also tends to trap dirt and debris so occasional baths are recommended. Regular nail trimming, ear cleaning, and dental care should also be part of their grooming routine to maintain overall health.

🐾Breed of the Month: ft. Willie🐾

Siberian Huskies are a medium-sized, strong, and resilient breed originally bred by the Chukchi people of Siberia for pulling sleds over long distances in harsh, cold environments. They are known for their striking appearance, with thick double coats, erect triangular ears, and distinctive blue or multicolored eyes.

Huskies are highly energetic, intelligent, and independent dogs that require plenty of physical activity and mental stimulation. While they are friendly and good-natured, their strong prey drive and desire to roam can make them challenging for first-time dog owners.

Siberian Huskies have relatively low grooming needs compared to other double-coated breeds, but they still require regular care to keep their coat healthy. They shed heavily, especially during shedding season (also known as “blowing coat”), which happens typically twice a year. During this time, daily brushing with an undercoat rake or de-shedding tool is essential to prevent matting.

🐾Breed of the Month: ft. Ninawey🐾

Yorkshire Terriers, commonly called Yorkies, are small dogs originally bred in England to catch rats in textile mills. They typically weigh around 7 pounds and have a long, silky coat that requires regular grooming.

Yorkies are known for their bold and feisty temperament, often acting much larger than their size. They are loyal and affectionate companions, making them popular as both pets and show dogs.

Yorkies need regular grooming due to their long, silky coats. Brush their hair daily to prevent tangles and mats. Regular grooming keeps Yorkies looking their best and feeling comfortable.
