I CAN doodle your poodle! Consider buying a purebred poodle before you purchase a “pure” doodle!! Adopt and rescue any you can, of course, but if you’re considering purchasing a breed then please get a poodle!!
It’s all in how you have them groomed!

Quick update:
I am back from my honeymoon but am currently unable to perform house-call grooming. My mobile table has broken, the legs do not stay up any longer. It will be a small wait for house call grooms until I can either get my antique table repaired or get a brand new one. My apologies. I am still open in Indian Trail for y’all to come to me, my home table is still in perfectly safe working order.
Thank you for your understanding.
Hello! Thank you everyone for your patience in me replying! I was unable to make a post regarding this, but I got married a little over a week ago! I’ve since been on my honeymoon and have not been accessing Facebook or other social medias, and have also been not responding to work related calls or texts.
I will be home by Thursday and able to reply then. Aside from my already scheduled upcoming appointments on the books, I will not be responding to scheduling requests until Thursday mid-morning at the very soonest. If you have texted/called/emailed/messaged me, I promise I will get back to you by Thursday evening at the latest to schedule your pet for a spa day!
Again, thank you for your patience!
I work out of a vet clinic during the weekdays and see more than my fair share of senior pets who don’t need and can’t handle the “cutesie” cuts that owners demand and insist upon. If your groomer is telling you your pet can’t handle the grooming, especially a senior pet, believe them. They aren’t trying to be lazy or scam you. They’re trying to save your pet unnecessary pain.
Normally it's all memes and jokes here at the Foolery but I want to talk about something close to my heart.
Senior Pets and Comfort Cuts
If you own a senior pet, please LISTEN to your groomer and take what they say to heart. No one wants to send home a pet looking unfinished. Senior pets, and even younger ones who may have serious health and behavior issues, we can't always make them look show ready. And that's nobody's fault.
It's not your fault, your pet's fault or your groomer's fault.
Yes, I know Max has always been good for grooming for all his life, but now he's 16. He has arthritis. He may be going blind and/or deaf. His skin is more sensitive to tangles being pulled. His mouth is sore from bad teeth and gums. He may have the beginning stages of dementia. He may not be able to stand for long periods. So we are going to do the best we can to make him comfortable without putting him through anything unnecessary. I understand you always loved his long beard or fluffy tail, but he cannot tolerate the time it takes to get those areas dry and combed out completely. Let's tighten it up for him.
I know his coat is curly today. I had to kennel dry him because the other dryers were just too much for him to handle and he was panicking and at risk of seizure.
I am sorry I cut his eyelashes too short. Because of his deteriorating eyesight, he isn't tolerating things near his face much anymore and moves a lot.
And if your groomer says they can no longer groom your dog and suggest a vet groomer, listen to them. Even if your vet gives you a letter saying your dog is safe to groom. No disrespect to vets, but most don't know what it's like to actually groom a dog. And your letter doesn't erase liability for the groomer in the event your dog has a medical crash or injury. At a vet office, if your dog goes into cardiac arrest, they can get immediate attention.
Having been in this business for a couple of decades, I have had several dogs die at salons I worked at. The business paid for necropsies and every one returned with preexisting health conditions the owners either knew about or didn't. If your groomer is telling you to take it to a vet, they are doing it because they care more about your pet's safety than your money. Just think about that. And don't assume cause the cut isn't perfect, you deserve to pay less for the work. Your groomer probably put more work into that cut now than they ever did with the perfect cut.
When you dog has serious health and behavior issues, you don't get the privilege to be nitpicky about every facet of the groom. I know it's a hard pill to swallow, but put your pets needs above vanity. Your pet will not care if they eyelashes are short or the entire underside is shaved.
And when your senior pet gets home they are going to be tired and maybe even sore. This doesn't mean they were mishandled. Place your older self into their paws for a moment. Imagine you were very old and unable to stand for long periods, while someone is running brushes, combs and clippers all over you, picking up your foot so you have to balance on one leg to clip your toe nails. Look how many elderly people choose shorter, easier to manage hairstyles. Because it's too hard to manage their other styles and longer hair.
Your groomer puts your pet first, respect them for it.
They also need grooming! Book in advance before summer hits us hard! Your pup needs a summer cut.

Please welcome the newest Salon family member, Habanero! He is a Havanese/Podengo mix rescue. Currently he is 15 weeks old and is the sweetest/spiciest puppy ever. So sweet, playful, and adorable.
Got a husky? We don’t need to shave it!! Whether I do your dog or not, make sure not to shave those double coats!! Regular grooming and deshed treatments will help regulate the shedding and keep your pets healthy and happy! Don’t shave, talk to your groomer first!
I also have plenty of recommendations for good deshedding brushes that ARENT expensive! I make no money off of suggesting brushes to you, it simply brings me so much joy to help educate and aid owners in caring for their pets!
Call or text with any questions or to book NOW!! 704-261-4632
I completely understand when someone says their Great Pyrenees, golden retriever, Australian shepherd, ect. Are so hot! I mean look at all that hair, they must be.
But, I’m here to tell you that shaving those double coats is not the solution. Here’s some knowledge you may not know. The double coat is comprised of the shorter Downey undercoat and the longer silky top coat (guard coat). The space in between the undercoat and topcoat is the space that helps regulate your dogs temperature. That space either holds air creating a sort of insulation for the winter months or/and circulates air creating a cool down effect for the summer months. The topcoat is essentially blocking out the hotter air of summer.
When shaving these breeds and removing the coat altogether you are taking away the dogs ability to regulate it’s body temperature. You are putting them at risk for sunburn. And there is a high chance the hair will not grow back the same, taking a year or more to restore their coat to a healthy state. And when it does grow back in it may have a diffeeent texture making it more prone to Matt in the future.
Something your groomer can do to help with the summer heat is being the undercarriage, featherings, mane and pantaloons close to the body. A good de shed treatment will do wonders at thinning out the coat and getting rid of as much of that downy coat as possible.
Please don’t give up on your COVID pups!!
Public Service Announcement:
You can work AND keep your dog 😊
Know what? Dogs sleep 12 to 14 hours a day. Get a camera. Guess what your dog is doing while you're at work? Sleeping! They'll sleep with you at night and while you're at work. So that dog you just "rescued" 6 months ago while you were teleworking and now you want to get rid of because you have to go to work - great news! You don't need to. He'll sleep while you're gone and be ready to play when you get home. But he deserves someone who is home with him? Wait, you mean someone who doesn't work? Guess what? Most people have someone in the household that works! He loves you and he's fine with you earning money to feed him.
Carry on. Go to work. Keep your dog.
Even better - get him a friend and they can nap together.

(Ps. Crate train your dog)
Rescuers and shelter workers are EXHAUSTED.
Three new shampoos and three new colognes!
Lavender chamomile is the perfect shampoo to soothe nervous pets while cleaning them. Simple shed is a great shampoo for your hairy beast with the power to remove a whole lot of undercoat and a wonderful plum scent! Just in time for the holidays, ginger orange shampoo smells great and cleans to the skin! And, arriving soon, we will have one more seasonal holiday scented shampoo!
For colognes the new lineup is a lavender vanilla scent that matches the new shampoo, a wonderful vanilla and black raspberry scent that is my personal favorite, and just for the holidays we have a sweet sugar cookie scent!
All scents are your choice, I’ll always ask you at drop off which scented shampoo you’d prefer and which cologne you’d prefer. If you’d prefer no scent, I have an unscented shampoo as well.
Plus, I sell 1 ounce bottles of a very clean and fresh kiwi scented cologne for you to take home with you as a refresh between grooms! $3 a piece normally, but just for the holidays they’re $2!
Book now and get your pup or kitten a groom before the holidays!! Message now or text at 704-261-4632
