Something I've wondered before..

Learn about labrador retriever vs chesapeake bay retriever in this guide. Find out about what foods, treats, & toys they like, too!

"Rhea" was a 'ray-a' sunshine! 🌞 first time with me and she did wonderfully! Brush out, bath, blow dry and nails! What a beauty!

Wow!! Transformation Tuesday! Everest was wayyyy overdue and she had thick matted hair. Thankfully it all was coming off together. Like shearing a sheep! Feel your best, love! 🥰🤩

This little adventurer is a new guy and after he got groomed he went home but decided to show off his new 'do by walking around his neighborhood and getting himself lost! Or maybe he knew where he was but his family sure thought he was lost! Anyway, he got home safe and sound as he was found by a neighbor a day later.
So the thing about his groom is that drop coats are REALLY difficult for me to get right it seems. His ears also stuck out farther after trimming it seems! 😂 we'll take it, anyways. Definitely need to educate myself more on best ways to cut the fine, drop coat hair. Don't go traveling without assistance anymore, Marquis!

Little Miss Moiya needed a salon day something awful! She did not feel like herself and luckily was able to snag a last minute cancelation!

Foxy little lady, Alice paid me a visit for a quick glow up and dang, is she cute as a button!

It was a busy weekend of grooms! Who the heck even is this guy??! Can't tell under all that hair. OH! Why, it's our friend, Lyle! This was his first groom and I don't think he even would recognize himself!!

Shelby was the most still dog I've ever groomed! Like a statue! Sure she was nervous, but it was refreshing to have such a stationary pup! But I hope she felt comfortable despite being uneasy. I know for a fact she liked the ear massage in the bath. Eyes were closed, face was slightly up, and max comfort was reached! That gnarly matt is out and now it feels better! Such a nice little lady. Come again, Shelby!

My first go at hand stripping a wirehair coat! This fella is family and his name's Reaper. He's a Pudelpointer huntin' dog on a little break from all the good boy work.
Wirehair breeds should not be cut, but stripped from their body when it's ready to come out. I've added hand stripping tools to my collection and am now at your service for the future hand stripping jobs!

This dude is Coach. He was a smelly and dirty guy. Not too much excess hair to cut but I got him all cleaned up and ready to get dirty again. I'm told he's basically professional level status at getting dirty. Haha🤭 Coach is new to Tippy Tap Paws Spa as well!

Angel's first time and we forgot to take a 'before' pic! Oh well, she cleaned up nice. (: we had to take a little extra time amd adjust how we worked with her as we went. Hopefully it was the smoothest and least stressful groom she's ever had. 💗

Part II was completed yesterday. Got the bath, blow dry a final haircut, nails and ears done. I'm sure he's feeling loads better!

It's a p U p P Y ' s FIRST groom!! This mini schnauzer is a distant cousin dog of mine and his name is Bandit. His folks stuck around for the groom to see how he would do and were so proud of him. 🩵 Doesn't he look so grown up after?? Must be the grooming table time machine. Bandit's favorite part of it all were all the breaks to explore the house and back yard. (: talk about a !

Splash and Gucci are ready for summer ☀️

Can you see my walking trail??
Woofda 😩 This has been a job.... I cannot finish today. The whole coat was extremely matted. My tools are dulling to the point of needing new. My feet and back are killin me. And just a mostly done haircut has taken 2 hours alone. I'm tuckered out.

Me: takes out her pony and tosses her hair around a little to see what i need to trim
😂😂
Her: what's so funny?
Me: gives her a mirror
Her: ............

when I took out her pony tail I could help but lol. Had her lookin' like a little lady by the end again. "Angel Baby" was a fresh little face with us and hopefully it won't be her last time here!

Groomer's kid haircut personal best time! 0:27:0!
It may have only been 27 mins. But that was 27 mins with just my little old man. 🥰💙

🎶 she’s so highhh..High above me, She’s so lovely
She’s so highhhhhh Like Cleopatra, Joan of Arc
or Aphrodite. Tal Bachman obviously wrote that song about her. This beauty is Berkley! This was her first time here and thank goodness for other dogs to distract her cuz she missed her parents a lot for a while. But we made it thru! She got everything a shepherd could want in a groom. Hope she feels as pretty as she looks!
And yes, we did take a million pictures. 🤷‍♀️ 🥰

This here is Leo
He is a first-timer here and did wonderfully!
He's a cockerspaniel shih tzu X so we kept the ears long, made the muzzle a little boxy but went with a shih tzu tail trim and he ordered the summer cut length. Woohoo! Lookin good and feelin' fresh!! Plus he enjoyed my pack and the back yard. 🌞 🌳

Top: Toby
Bottom: Dakota
Toby is a repeat client and was really feelin' the outside groom vibes today. Still not a big fan of the groom but today he was just lulled by the sounds of the great outdoors.
Dakota was a first timer but knows me from the dog park. She needed a nice coat cleaning and condition. Whitening shampoo on her white and regular on the rest. The blow dry took FORRRREVVVVVVeeerrrR [Sandlot kid voice]

Big woofie, fluffy woofie, matted woofie, too. He loves how he looks post-groom, how bout you?!

Abe's first time with me today and we did the thang!! Brushed, dematted, bathed, blow dried, trimmed hair, nails and paws. Woofda! Lucky for me he's a good boy! Abe is Newfoundland Great Pyrenees X
