Recently we’ve been receiving a lot of requests from clients who have graduated our nail/grooming conditioning program for help with their dog’s fears of vet exams. More specifically with receiving vaccines and being pricked by a needle.
This small task can quickly become a major issue where the vet staff safety are at risk, and the dog is at risk of creating extremely negative associations with vet visits.
This is incredibly hard for both owners and vet staff, because vet staff work SO hard to keep our pets healthy and happy and owners want what is best for their dogs.
Once there is an issue of safety vet staff are often left with resorting to major sedation in order to safely handle dogs and make sure they are healthy and receiving the medical care they need during exams.
This is an understandable and reasonable course of action for your vet to take. Their job is incredibly difficult and can be very risky!
We want to be able to support the amazing vet staff who work so hard to keep our dogs healthy, and support owners who so desperately want their dog’s to have a positive association and relationship with their vet!
So adjusting our program to accommodate common fears associated with vet exams is something we’re more than happy to do!
We can’t thank our hard working vets enough and want the dogs who need it most to be set up for success on their visits to stay healthy! 🩺💉🐾

(Please note we are NOT administering vaccines. Kelsey has taken a short course provided by her vet on how to properly administer cartrophen injections to her own dog. So we know how to safely handle needles and inject them, but are only using them to simulate the initial prick of the needle.)

As a lot of you know a huge part of my life has involved rescue work. Especially traveling to and supporting other rescue groups in developing countries. The amazing group I’ve been working with the last few years is The Dog-Go Project who are located in Puebla, Mexico.
The pandemic has obviously made travel very difficult, and has in turn made life for these rescue groups exponentially harder.
So I am beyond excited to announce that I will be returning to Mexico with my good friend Deb in the beginning of February.
Our partners in Mexico are in desperate need of funds to care for the countless amount of dogs that have been dumped at their shelters. Coupled with their inability to fly dogs out of the Country, they are in need of support now more than ever.
So to aid in the fundraising efforts and to support my trip down to Mexico, The Calm Dog Studio is giving away an AMAZING prize of free grooming for a YEAR!
This prize has a value of up to $1200!!
We will be selling tickets to this amazing draw for $5 per ticket, or 5 tickets for $20!
100% of proceeds will be going towards helping our rescue partners save lives, feed dogs, and build them shelter.
So truly there is no downside in donating a few dollars for a chance to get your pup pampered for free a year. 🥰
DM me for details and to purchase your tickets!
The draw will end January 27th!
Good luck everyone! 🤩
