Wholesome Doodle Spa

Wholesome Doodle Spa Professional Doodle Grooming, Training, & Behavior Modification. Hi, my name is Betty Peto. I am the author of Nail it! They are our kids, too.

I am the founder of Doodle Grooming Academy and the Compassionate Dog Grooming Initiative. A Step-by-Step Guide to Wholesome Dog Nail Trimming and From Single to Triple Figures Per Hour - How a Bather Kickstarted Their Solo-groomer Dog Spa. I am a professional dog groomer since 2010, with almost ten years of dog training experience. I saw the benefits of a low-distraction environment combined with

dog training early on in my career. That helped me provide just as a relaxing environment for dogs, as there is for humans out there. It enabled me to leave grooming loops, muzzles, and other restraints behind while keeping dogs safe and comfortable enough to work with them in collaboration instead of "doing stuff to them." Because hey, kids are not restrained for a haircut, why should dogs be, right? I specialized in doodles because I am in love with high-energy level dogs and saw the doodle pawrents' need for help with hair maintenance, tools, dog handling, and doodle specified, custom hairstyles for their babies. I've heard "Don't poodle my doodle!" at first timer drop off so many times as the pawrents' desperate cry for help, it imprinted on my soul, and made me rethink the possibilities I can provide for pawrents and their doodles. I came across more and more questions and passionate doodle pawrents who wanted to learn significantly more about doodle hair care and haircuts than I could provide at the meet and greet talks, drop-offs, pickups, on online forums, and in online groups. That gentle but persistent push made the Doodle Grooming Academy slowly unfold. My favorite areas of grooming are nail trimming, gentle detangling and dematting, and behavior modification compassionately. To express my passion for dog nails, and to help professionals and worried pawrents of any breeds learn how to befriend and master safe nail care for their babies and their clients, I developed a trustworthy and joyful method for nail trimming and wrote Nail it! A Step-by-Step Guide to Wholesome Dog Nail Trimming. I am the mom of many furry and feathery babies. I have a Malinois (Toki), a Maltipoo (Picur), and four cats (Mr. Chips, Pupak, Luna, and Cuki). My husband and I and the gang live in Georgetown, Texas.

Holly and Gracie LOVE the spa day yummies and meeting with my Team Tiny.
Spa days are not just about a haircut and getting a wash. It's also about reuniting with friends and having fun from start to finish.

Excellent visibility is vital for safe morning and evening walks with your dog. Itโ€™s also useful for hiking, camping, hunting and spotting your dog in a big backyard.

Dinka got her Rabies shot today at Patriot Animal Hospital. Picur was the emotional support animal. :P They got some yummies from the staff during the visit, and they found them to be their new fave. :D
Thank you Dr. Amy Mathiak and for the staff!

From a local gardener:

This tick has been on display for us to show people for a while. After months in a sealed container without any additional feeding, she laid eggs. This demonstrates how long a tick can remain dormant and how many eggs one female can lay. Remember, ticks become active again in the fall, so continue with preventive measures.

If you encounter a small pile of jelly-like balls in your garden, act immediately! These are tick eggs and they're set to hatch soon.

Either set them on fire or destroy them by soaking in isopropyl alcohol. Be sure to wear gloves if you handle the nest, as it contains hundreds of tick eggs that will hatch in a few weeks. I believe it's important to share this post because tick bites can be dangerous.

Stay safe and informed to protect yourself and your garden from these tiny but dangerous creatures!

Our Story

Hi there, :) My name is Betty. Dogs are my passion. As simple, but as deep as that. I am a dog groomer (with almost 10 years of dog training experience) & dog lover in one person. I think, dog grooming and dog training are really deeply connected to each other. You need both if you want to achieve excellent outcome either in the dog park or on the grooming table. I use Giraffe language and dog training techniques with my four legged clients and they really enjoy spending time with me, even when they ended up in the tub and in front of the blow-dryer. My goal is to share my experiences with doodles and help doodle moms and dads, how to take care of their doodleโ€™s coat at home, the gentle and effective way. I want your doodle (and you!) to feel comfortable while being groomed & I would like to invite you to a leash, grooming loop and muzzle free spa day, with pampering and attention you get from the most exclusive spas yourself. In this case your doodle is the lucky one for the pampering session! :) I am a label detective and I carefully watch the type of the ingredients and the source of them in my doggy products. I use chemical free, natural and eco-friendly grooming supplies, organic whenever available. If you have any questions email to my booking assistant, we are happy to answer your questions! Tank you for your time & have a wonderful day! :) Belly rubs to your doodle! Betty, The Groomer Chick ;-) :)
