Coco came to FARM in need of a forever home. He is a one year old neutered male Poodle mix weighing 8 pounds. Coco acts like a puppy. He loves people and likes to play with other small well socialized dogs. Coco needs a dog experienced adopter who has the time and patience to teach him basic skills and to work on housebreaking. A secure fenced yard would be great. Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out a dog application which can be found at http://fallstonanimalrescue.org/adopt/ and e-mail it to [email protected].

Paris came to FARM in need of a forever home. She is a 10 pound, 6 year old spayed female Bichon retired breeding dog. Paris needs an experienced and patient adopter who is willing to work on her fears and her housebreaking. She does well with other dogs and does well in a crate. Paris does not know how to walk on a leash, so a secure fenced yard is a requirement and another well socialized small dog would be a huge plus. Paris desperately needs socialization in a quiet home with an experienced adopter. Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out a dog application which can be found at http://fallstonanimalrescue.org/adopt/ and e-mail it to [email protected].

Toto came to FARM in need of a forever home. He is a 2 year old, 8 pound neutered male Terrier mix. Toto is affectionate and likes to play. He seems to be mostly housebroken if someone let's him out when he asks to go out. Toto can be a loud barker when he hears a noise, so he is probably not appropriate for an apartment or condo unless you are home for most of the day. He seems to enjoy the company of other small, sociable dogs. Toto is a sweet, affectionate little boy who is ready for someone to spoil him. Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out a dog application which can be found at http://fallstonanimalrescue.org/adopt/ and e-mail it to [email protected].

Butterscotch was found wandering the streets in need of medical care and was taken to a local shelter. Once they realized she had a broken leg, FARM welcomed this sweet girl into rescue to get the medical care she needed.

Butterscotch had surgery to fix her broken leg and has recovered well. She is an adorable ball of puppy energy and is ready to start her happily ever after.

Butterscotch is a 5-month-old female Shepherd mix. She is a typical puppy with lots of energy. She has done well with house training and crate training but needs an adopter who will continue to work on these and basic puppy training so she can grow to be the best pup she can be. Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment.

CJ is an adorable SPECIAL NEEDS Boxer puppy (6 months old). He is the sweetest boy ever and loves everyone he meets (people and dogs). He could spend all day playing with his foster fur sibling or snuggling with his foster mom.

CJ has Diabetes Insipidus (NOT the same as Diabetes). Please research this condition before applying for him. DI (Diabetes Insipidus) causes CJ to drink a lot of water and to urinate large amounts frequently. He has made huge improvements with treatment but this is a lifelong disorder. CJ requires an injection 2-3 times a day to lessen his thirst and urination. His ideal home will have a doggie door (he uses one in his foster home) with a securely fenced in yard.

If you are interested in meeting CJ and have researched his condition, please submit an adoption application. We know this is a big commitment for an adopter but CJ will give all his love in return and he is totally worth it.

Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out a dog application which can be found at http://fallstonanimalrescue.org/adopt/ and e-mail it to [email protected].

Bella is a 3 year old, 10 pound, spayed female Pekingese who is looking for her forever home. She is very people oriented and loves affection. Bella is an alpha female and would probably do best as an only dog, or in a home with a submissive small dog. She seems to be mostly housebroken but will need some reinforcement in her new home. This little girl is a sweetheart! Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out a dog application which can be found at http://fallstonanimalrescue.org/adopt/ and e-mail it to [email protected].

Frankie is an awesome 9 month old, 15 pound neutered male Miniature Poodle in need of a forever home. Frankie is a little timid until he gets to know you but warms up quickly. He is very smart, knows several basic commands, and is almost completely housebroken. FRANKIE DOES NOT CRATE and will become very stressed and anxious if crated. Frankie will do best in a quiet home with a secure fenced yard, or in a home with an active owner who will be committed to lots of walks. Another small well socialized dog who likes to play would also be great for Frankie. This is one great puppy! Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment.

Lulu is still waiting for her home. She is a love bug too

Lulu is wondering why no one is interested in adopting her. This sweet, affectionate little girl is a 9 month old, 13 pound Poodle and Chinese Crested Powder Puff mix. Her foster says "Lulu takes a little time to come out of her shell (remember she is just a baby) but when she does, she's playful with the other small dog in the home and very cuddly." Lulu is learning to walk on a leash and is working on her housebreaking skills. She is also crate trained. Lulu needs a dog experienced owner who has the time and patience to continue her training. A fenced yard would be a plus. Meet and greets for approved adopters will be by appointment.

‼️COURTESY POSTING ‼️

Looking for a home together

They are 4 years old and are brother and sister. Looking for them to be adopted together as the female is definitely dependent on her brother. I think they would do best without large dogs in the household as they were terrorized by a German shepherd. They are affectionate, use the litter box and are eating fine. Healthy per the veterinarian. They just had a check up and received their rabies and distemper shots. I also had them put on Braveto Flea prevention even though they didn't have fleas. They do not go outside. Indoor cats only.
Any help in finding them a forever home would be greatly appreciated.
Message me if interested and I will put you in contact with their owner

Most of my clients have met Doo Bee the shop kitty. Well I would really like to find him a home where he can live in a house and be loved on all the time. He loves dogs and people. He hasn't been around other cats except for a few that have come in for grooming and he has not bothered with them. He is a real love bug and a good boy. He is neuterd, vaccinated and microchipped. Please message me if you are interested in giving him a loving home

Available for adoption....

‼️‼️PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST FIRST BEFORE APPLYING ‼️‼️

Meet Milo , an 11 month old Golden Doodle. Milo was surrendered to us because of some behavioral issues that made them feel he was not a good fit for their family and child. So far, I have not been able to trigger him to react in a negative way except for having his toenails clipped.

Milo is up to date on vaccines and will be neutered tomorrow. He is 99% housebroken and crate trained. He walks well on a leash. He seems to like all dogs of any size and cats. He rides well in the car. He knows
a few basic commands and I am working with him to learn a few other commands I feel will help him.

We will be looking for a specific home for him where he can continue to thrive in a positive way.

These will be the requirements needed in order to be considered,

1) NO Children under the age of 15, including grandchildren that visit your home.
2) Must have a fenced in yard.
3) Must be experienced in owning a dog. ( Milo is not for a first-time dog owner).
4) Must be able to continue working on training with him.
5) Must be willing to talk in depth with me about Milo and his behaviors and training.
6) Milo is not a good fit for an apartment or condo
7) MUST LOVE HIM !

Milo has shown to be a very sweet and happy boy.

We will not make any exceptions on what is needed to be considered to adopt him.
Please message me for more information on him before you apply.

Dear Clients... Since Covid there have a few things that have affected us groomers.

First, there have been a tremendous amount of new inquiries for dog grooming. While I am grateful for the inquiries we just can not keep up! So at this time we are not able to take any new clients. I do apologize for this and I wish we could groom everyone's pup!

Secondly, since the re-opening after Covid many of the suppliers I am using have raised their prices significantly. A gallon of shampoo has now gone from $36 a gallon to $75 a gallon. Cleaning supplies
( kennel grade cleaners ) have increased from $56 to $78 a gallon. I have tried to absorb these extra cost increases but it has gotten too difficult to do. In order to maintain my business I must make some changes to your grooming charges.
EFFECTIVE JULY 5TH PRICES WILL INCREASE BY $5.00.

Thirdly, don't forget that we do offer daycare. It is $25 per day per dog. Appointments do need to be made in advance.

Now for the health part, I have not asked for proof of vaccinations and still will not. It is important though that I mention a few things. If you choose not to vaccinate your pup for certain things like kennel cough or canine influenza that is your choice. But just know that Romp N Groom is not responsible if your pup were to get sick. All dogs are expected to be vaccinated for rabies!

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope that everyone understands.

Sincerely,
Danielle

Long read but well worth it!

A CONVERSATION ABOUT PERCEIVED VALUE:
A customer asked a groomer how much it would cost to groom their dog.
The 40 lb dog had some matting. The groomer gave an estimate of $100
The customer responded: That’s seems really high.
The groomer asked: What do you think is a reasonable price for this job?
The customer answered: $60 maximum
Groomer responded: Ok, then I invite you to do it yourself.
The customer answered: I don't know how to.
Groomer responded: Alright, then how about for $60 I'll teach you how to. So besides saving you $40, you'll learn valuable skills that will benefit you in the future.
The customer answered: Sounds good! Let’s do it!
My friend responded: Great! To get started, you are going to need some tools. You will need a slicker brush, a comb, nail clippers, a dremel, ear cleaning solution, cotton balls, hemostats, pet clippers, clipper blades, a dematting tool, dog shampoo and conditioner, a couple different shears, etc..
The customer answered: But I don't have any of those tools and I can't justify buying all of these for one job.
The groomer responded: Ok. Well then for an additional $15 I can rent my tools to you to use for this project.
The customer answered: Okay. That’s fair.
The groomer responded: Great! We will start the project on Monday.
The customer answered: I work Monday through Friday. I’m only available on the weekends.
The groomer responded: If you want to learn from me then you will need to work when I work. This project will take 2+ hours so you will need to take a half day off work.
The customer answered: That means I’m going to have to sacrifice my pay for half a day or use a vacation day!
The groomer responded: That’s true. Remember, when you do a job yourself you need to account for unproductive factors.
The customer answered: What do you mean by that?
The groomer responded: Doing a job completely from start to finish includes time spent to plan the project, set up your tools, wash and fold towels, travel time, gas, set up time, clean up, and waste disposal amongst other things. That’s all in addition to the actual project itself. We will need to walk your dog and expend some of its energy before the groom, that’s where we will start on Monday so I need you to meet me at the park at 7am.
The customer answered: At 7am! My work day doesn’t usually start until 8am!
The groomer responded: Well then you’re in luck! My plan is to start the groom by 8am. But to do so we have to start at 7am to get towels ready and tools prepared.
The customer answered: You know, I’m realizing that a lot more goes in to a job than what a customer sees in the finished project. Your proposal of $100 is very reasonable. I would like you to handle the project.
CONCLUSION:
When you pay for a job, especially a custom job, (whether it’s a physical project or digital project) you pay not only for the material and the work to be completed. You also pay for:
✔️ Knowledge
✔️ Experience
✔️ Custom Skills
✔️ Tools
✔️ Time to plan
✔️ Time to prepare
✔️ Professionalism
✔️ Work Ethic
✔️ Excellence
✔️ Discipline
✔️ Commitment
✔️ Integrity
✔️ Taxes
✔️ Licenses
✔️ Sacrifices
✔️ Liabilities
✔️ Insurance
If you request a proposal for custom work to be done, please don’t disrespect a service provider by trying to get them to lower their prices.
If their proposal exceeds your budget, there’s nothing wrong with getting other proposals.
Just remember.. you get what you pay for.
👉🏼 SERVICE PROVIDERS: Know your worth and be confident in it.
👉🏼 CONSUMERS: Recognize their worth and be respectful of it.
