Afternoon Naptime ๐ค
One of the most common questions we get is, โDo the dogs ever settle down?โ Itโs trueโthey get super excited and loud whenever humans walk in! But hereโs a little peek at one of my favorite parts of the day: afternoon nap time. ๐พโค๏ธ
Proof that even the most energetic pups have their quiet moments!
The only thing better than a snow day is a snow day with dogs! โ๏ธ
Have you heard of hand stripping? ๐โ๏ธ
This grooming technique is ideal for wire-haired breeds like terriers and schnauzers, helping to maintain their coatโs natural texture and color.
Unlike clipping, which can soften the coat over time, hand stripping removes dead hair from the root, promoting healthier regrowth.
Benefits of hand stripping:
โจ Keeps your dog's coat healthy and vibrant
โจ Reduces shedding by removing dead hair
โจ Preserves the coat's natural texture and appearance
โจ Improves skin health by promoting proper airflow
Sleepover at Hair of the Dog ๐ค
Our overnight crew love cuddling up with all the dogs at night to ensure that they are safe and feel the comforts of home while they are here in our micro kennel.
We know it can sound pretty crazy when our customers come in; everyone gets super excited and wants to say hello. Folks ask me if itโs always like that and sometimes, they seem surprised when I say no but there are also really sweet peaceful moments here at the salon too. I love moments like this, in the afternoon when the sun is out and the pups are tired from playing all morning and they all stretch out and sunbathe together ๐ฅน๐พ
Tug of war is a favorite for these besties!
Weโre having a ball here! ๐พ

An Average Afternoon Around the Shop
We know that typically when you come in to pick up or drop off your pup, it can be rather loud because all the dogs get excited and we know it may seem like itโs just like that all the time but hereโs a little walk through when things are calm and all the groomers are working. We are proud of our pack and how well they get along and we love to see everyoneโs dogs get more comfortable when they are here with us! It brings us a lot of joy to know that they love being here with us at Hair of the Dog!
Look at these two besties, Yume and Olivia ๐
