Miss Tiger comes for her special medicated mud treatment every couple of weeks and today we took it to the next level with Warren London’s Deep Fizz tablets.
If your pup has itchy, scaly, sensitive skin and you think they would benefit from a 20-30 minute soak, just let us know! If you turn your volume up, you’ll hear Tiger had a lot to say about it 😂
THREE generations of Golden Retrievers! Cooper (the OG), Henry (son of Cooper), and Ralph’s (son of Henry) are like the 3 Stooges. It took half an hour and 1,000 cookies to get one picture but we did it. 😂 We love this crew!
When you find your employee snuggling on the job!
Last week it was Walker and this week it’s Iggy. Mikayla has the best gig in town!
If your fur kid has anxiety, we will make sure they have the extra attention and comfort while they wait ❤️
We love seeing our sweet Nilla (aka Nilla bean to us) featured in a Post and Courier article! The Swinney’s have 2 of our fave doods, Nilla and Levi. Check out the article to learn more about Nilla’s name….hint: what does it spell when it’s backwards?! Check the comments to see a super cute video of Levi. 😍 https://www.postandcourier.com/sports/clemson/clemson-dabo-swinney-goldendoodle-all-in/article_0aef96b4-64ba-11ef-9518-d745b506521a.html?utm_medium=Social&tpcc=charleston_facebook_organic&utm_source=Facebook&utm_term=charleston&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0irQDHLIZVsgBEB1sbDi1FzYr8W6U5EwpNuvVSONDDlPCNKebxKpcsf1Q_aem_Jpx4iMVQjX-ScsliPhrHdg
Tibetan Terriers aren’t a breed seen every day. We love showing these two little ladies off. They are beautiful and their mom’s grooming requests allow for us to do these cute top knot pony tails 😊 She loves the “au natural” style!
The scissor queen strikes again! We love Krystal’s outline trims. 🥰
Keep Sindie Crease on your call list for dog boarding! This is who I’ve been using for almost 10 years. She truly loves your dog as if they were her own…..so I’ve heard from some boarders that sleep in her bed 😂

Congratulations girl! Go enjoy your new life!!
We are all really happy for you!! 🥰🫶
Looking for a forever friend? Petunia has been in the Pickens County Humane Society since she was a baby. She has only ever known life in a shelter but longs for her forever family! Is that you? Please share so Petunia can be matched with someone that loves her
PETUNIA is our longest-term resident, being in our facility since December! 😢
Sadly, she doesn't even know life outside of the shelter environment. Petunia is a wonderful girl with so much fun & love to offer! She's intelligent, friendly and energetic. She knows basic commands, walks on leash well and has a respectful personality. Petunia also enjoys the company of another canine to play with. This girl would be awesome for an active family! She's ready to share in all of life's adventures!
If you're looking for a friendly, 4-legged companion, Petunia is your girl!
☎️ Call today to meet her 864 843 9693
For adoption (courtesy post): DOZER: date of birth 10/31/2022 1/2 Australian shepherd 1/2 cattle dog maybe 20 lbs max.
Nervous around new dogs and people but warms up to you if you throw the ball for him! LOVES play and will play for hours! Very smart and knows basic commands like come, sit, stay. Very food motivated and would make a great agility or disk dog! Also loves the water!
Needs a home with a yard! He’s a herding dog so a farm would be even better
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!
We will reopen spay neuter as soon as we catch up the ones we had to cancel.
We made several calls to those who had made appointments for the month of July. Some didn’t answer but we left a voicemail. Some didn’t have a way to leave message because mailbox had not been set up. Some of the mailboxes were full and could not leave a message.
If you cannot keep your appointment, please call or email us.
So please watch for our phone call to reschedule you.
HIRING: we have positions for part time and full time bather, dryer and groomer. Please text 864-903-3806 to apply. Pay is dependent upon experience. We prefer some experience but it’s not necessary for the dryer and bather positions. Must have at least 5 years experience for the groomer position.
If anyone needs last minute dog boarding accommodations!
We have several last min openings july 8-15
Please remember to keep your dogs indoors this week. If they happen to get spooked from the fireworks, social media is your best bet! Post recent pictures, description, and area lost from on as soon as you’re pet goes missing. Just type in “lost and found” and your county into your Facebook search bar and your local groups will pop up. The Nextdoor app is also a great way to spread the word. Let us know and we will share on all our social media.
It’s so hot out there!
We have a BABY! Congratulations Kristin, James, Wyatt and Hunter ❤️ Welcome to the world Elliotte Addison Noel Peters.
Missing from Clemson! Please BOLO!

Where’s my senior dog lovers?? 8 year old Bane needs a home! I’m begging my mean husband to let me adopt him but he seems to be stuck on “NO!” 😩
Please consider making a donation to Freedom Fences- Wag/Catty Shack to restock on dog food for all of their fosters!!
For the first time in a long time our Snak Shack is EMPTY. We are on our last bag of dry food. We typically get donations of dog food from our local Sam's Club. These are bags that have been ripped or damaged in shipment. Some of the food we receive we don't feed, so we give it to our community. We like to feed Purina One Adult. We are completely out, so we appreciate any donations so we can build a supply. We are feeding a lot of dogs right now.
You can check out our website at www.freedomfences.org or our Amazon and Chewy wish lists!
Donations that are coming in are going to help with food!
We all need a TULIP in our lives! She’s for adoption. Check her out!
Pickens County Humane Society has some immediate needs. Please remember to grab a few items to donate ❤️❤️❤️ The shelter pets need our help!
Thank you for all your support!!
HE HAS BEEN ADOPTED!! Yay! THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO SHARED!
FOR ADOPTION: This little dude named Doge is in search of a new forever home! He was a stray and has proven to be an exceptional young dog to the folks who have helped him. Doge is VERY dog friendly and LOVES young people too. He hasn’t been tested with cats but I would imagine he would make them his best friend. Housebroken and playful (but not annoying), makes this dude the perfect pup! The vet guesstimated around 2-3 years old and he is of the petite variety. He looks to be mixed with corgi as you can tell from his little stump legs! If you’re interested in adopting Doge, please send us a text 8642073034. Let’s keep this boy out of the shelter!!
