🎄🐾 HOLIDAY PAW-PARAZZI ALERT! 🐾🎄

Yule never believe it... but it's THAT time of year again! 🎅✨
Your furry besties deserve their moment in the spotlight, and we're here to make it happen. 🎥🐶 This holiday season, we’re rolling out the red carpet (and maybe some tinsel) for our annual Winter Holiday Photos! 🎄📷

When? THIS Thursday, December 12, 2024. 🗓
Where? Right here at The Barkmont—aka your pup’s second home. 🏡
Why? Because who doesn’t want a holiday card featuring their dog? 🐶

Let’s make your pup fa-la-la-fabulous! Spots are limited (because even Santa’s elves can only handle so much cuteness). 🎁
Book now before your dog gives you the side-eye for missing out. 👀🐕

🎄✨Because the holidays aren’t complete without a little extra fur!✨🐾

Hi Friends!

This Thanksgiving, we're not just counting blessings—we're counting paws and wagging tails! 🐾

We LOVE our human clients as much as we LOVE our furry friends. 🐶💕

But here’s the question as we get ready to dig into our holiday feast:

Is there such a thing as TOO much gratitude? 🤔 Can you really spoil your pets with TOO many treats? 🦴

Let's debate! Drop your thoughts below! 👇

And remember, this Thanksgiving, hug your pets a little tighter and give thanks for the amazing community that we have built together. 🌟

Happy Thanksgiving! 🧡

Happy Valentine’s Day!

The holiday has us thinking about how lucky we are to have dogs. Their unconditional love for us in good times and bad, sadness and joy, is unrivaled by any other animal. (Sorry cat people, we love cats too, but let’s be real.) If you’re looking for ways to give the love back to your pup, try some of our handy tips:

Tell your dog you love them by:

1.) Giving them tasty treats! Dogs aren’t too picky (they’re scavengers by nature) so any tasty treat will do. A bite of pizza crust is just as good as a fancy treat from the store. (Just make sure you’re aware if your dog has allergies!)

2.) Take them on a sniffari! Often when we walk our dogs, we’re on a mission to get through the route. Letting your dog sniff as long as they want on every bush and rock is a great activity for them. Sniffing actually increases brain activity and can tire your dog out better than a fast walk, and it lets your dog do something they really love.

3.) Go somewhere new! Exploring novel smells and unusual places can be a real treat for your pup. Even just driving them to a new part of the neighborhood where you don’t usually walk can make your dog’s day!

4.) For dogs who love physical contact, petting can be a great show of affection. Let your dog tell you where they want to be pet - gently pet them, then pause and leave your hands out. See what body part your dog presses into them. Some dogs will turn for the rump rub, and other dogs will actually flip your hand onto their head or back for scritches!

5.) Of course, a spa day never goes unappreciated! While your dog may prefer to roll in stinky things, a clean coat and freshly trimmed nails go a long way to making your dog feel their best. Contact us at [email protected] to book a grooming today!

Whatever you’re doing to celebrate the day, we are wishing you and your dog a lot of love!

xoxo,
The Barkmont
