“Because of the dog’s joyfulness, our own is increased. It is no small gift.”
-Mary Oliver, poet

Happy National Dog Day to all our furry clients! We are so blessed to be able to spend our days with some of the best dogs around.
These photos are a very small sampling of the amazing dogs we are blessed to groom.

PLEASE be aware of these evil human beings. Jessica Kippen (Jess) and her boyfriend Noah Schade are responsible for the deaths of several dogs. They have been charged with neglect and abuse of dogs that were in their care. DO NOT USE THEM FOR YOUR ANIMALS!!

Well, i had a few weeks break from the doodle posts, but once again, here we are 🤦‍♀️ If you decide to purchase a doodle, PLEASE don't listen to breeders and contact your groomer (when you first get them) and ask about grooming needs. If you want them to have a cute haircut, then you have to put the effort out at home. Not just take them to a groomer and expect us to wave a magic wand, and give them a fluffy haircut. If you don't want to take the time to COMB (not brush!) your dog several times a week, don't expect me to do it. Because I will not.

We have air again! Shew! Back on it tomorrow!

08/02/2024

Due to our air conditioning being out, we will have to close tomorrow, Friday August 2nd. I apologize for the inconvenience and hopefully by sat we will be up and going again!

5 years ago today this sweet litter of babies was born and I fell in love with a little black ball of fluff. 5 years later, he is the love of my life. Hateful as snot, but still my heart ❤️
Happy Birthday to Willow, Winston, Arlo, Chloe, Wrigley and my precious Owen 💖

Good morning ya'll. So, the extension is coming along! Before we hang the sheet rock, I would love anyone that wants to, to go over and write something, or your babies names etc on our studs. You all are the reason this is possible (and needed haha) Thank you all for all the love and support this far ❤️

We got a pretty amazing donation for our PAWS (placing animals with seniors) Knox PAWS and Feed-A-Pet program today! Thank you to Gloria and Gina for helping out this special program we work with!

Just a little p*ek at what's already here. Alot of work left to do, but it's a step!

07/16/2024

Ok ya'll. Our addition has been started and I cannot be more excited! I was asked by a few of you all to make a wishlist. You know this is WAAYYYY out of my comfort zone, and noone needs to feel obligated to do anything! But for those that asked for it, this is what I already had on here. Some of these things are what I've looked at, so it's on there. Thank you all for getting us this far, and I'm excited for the future of our little family here ❤️

And today, we found a very invasive species around here....The Shark w**d 🤣

Over the next few months, be patient with the mess around here. We are in the process of expanding and things will be out of sorts. I'm beyond blessed for all the support and love you guys have shown me over the years and made all of this possible! I look forward to this being finished and having more room for your babies!
Also, we are going to have a grand reopening hopefully in the spring, since covid put a damper on things when I first opened. I want to do something fun to thank you all for sticking with me the last almost 5 years!

So, for 5 years now, I have loved being a no crate grooming place. I have loved taking actual photos of your furbabies. Due to people refusing to neuter their dogs, and the fact that they p*e on everything, I'm no longer able to do photos. Hopefully when my extension is completed, I can get back to doing what I love, taking these babies photos. I am so disheartened right now by all the negative I have been having to deal with between clients being disrespectful of my time and heart, and dogs that belong to owners that just don't care enough to teach them manners. I'm doing my best to get this place upgraded and extended so be patient with me during these changes.

Take a minute and help us win best pet groomer! We made it to the voting round!

If you are a client that books for the entire year, please be respectful of my time and put your appts in your phone or on your calender. We all have a $1000+ computer in our pockets all the time, theres no reason to miss your appts! I have people that are waiting months for an appt and would gladly take your spot. Also, if your a no call/no show, you WILL be required to pay for your next appt plus a $25 fee. We spend hours/weeks strategically doing full year appts and when you just don't show that no only takes away a spot for someone else, but your taking money from me. Thats no different than you going to work and your boss telling you since its not busy, you have to work and not get paid. Owning a small business is not easy and working with animals is not something we do for the money because we sure don't get paid what we're worth. I've tried to keep my prices low but as much as I'm having no call/no shows, I'm going to be forced to raise my prices or I won't be able to keep my business going. I bend over backwards for my clients, I work late, I come in early, I always go the extra mile, I treat you all like my family and love your babies as my own. If I don't deserve the respect of my time, then maybe I am not the groomer for you.
