This 100%!!!

I have worked in several salons that would lie to the owners about their dogs behavior and what services were done.

Yes everyone wants to hear that their dog was perfect, but that's not always the reality!

I will always be honest about your dogs behavior and what we could and could not accomplish. I also try to give advice on how we can help them get better next time.

The pet professionals in your life should always be advocating for your animals. ❤️

I will be doing the same!
If it's too icy, no sense in risking it!
I know last year my car (AWD Subaru) couldn't even make it out of our driveway. No one is safe in ice!!! ❄️❄️❄️
Stay warm y'all!!

Would make a great birthday gift, Valentine's gift or a commemorative gift for owners of those pups who have crossed the rainbow bridge 🫶🐾

One of my Christmas commissions 🥰
I am always so honored when I’m asked to paint a pet portrait and especially so when it is for a gift. These animals bring so much joy to their owners and I get to experience that joy too through the process of painting.

Thank you to EVERYONE who liked, commented, shared, or commissioned a painting in 2023! Here’s to a great 2024🎨👩🏻‍🎨

Hoss was so sweet! Just a big bowling ball 😆 I had to call in reinforcement to help hold him for his nails 😆😁🤗😅

He is now roadtrip ready!!!

I took entirely too many pictures of Bailey this morning but I was thrilled with how good her groom turned out despite her trying to lick the shears 🙃😅

So sweeet! Clean teeth, fresh nails, sugar cookie spray, and a festive bandana...she is ready for Christmas! 🎄

Only his second full groom 🫶
He did amazing, we'll just have to keep working on drying his face 😆 He's not a fan.

How to tell the coat is tangle free...it separates nicely and you can see all the way to the skin ✨️

Doodle brushing/ is it matting or not?!

✨️Things to ask your groomer!✨️

As I have mentioned before, the grooming industry is 🚫NOT🚫 regulated like the human cosmetology, barber, and esthetic industry.

What this means is that basically ANYONE can purchase tools from amazon, walmart, or wherever and call themselves a groomer and charge people for it...even though they have 0 training nor insurance.
There are NO formal licenses required for grooming!

There are, however, several accredited grooming schools and academys as well as apprenticeships that offer several week courses which include canine anatomy, in depth training of bathing and drying each different breeds coat, breed standard grooms, show grooms and much more.
Many of these require you to perfect bathing, conditioning and drying and have an understanding of canine anatomy before even touching sharp objects!

These are some of the major questions to ask when choosing a groomer!

❗️Don't just choose them because they are the cheapest!
❗️Don't just choose them because they have an immediate opening tomorrow.

You are handing over a living being 🐶 to someone who will be handling sharp objects around their faces, sanitary areas, etc.

Make sure your family's pet(s) is/are in safe, gentle and caring hands! 🫶

✨️So. Much. Progress🫶

Oliver is 8 months old. The last time he was here, he was absolutely terrified of the dryer!
He did so well today and I'm looking forward to his next appointment! He still has a little anxiety but we completed his groom and he was awesome.

Good job Oliver!!!

Just a heads up!
✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
I am currently booked out 8 weeks!
The first availability I have is the very last couple days in January and I am now booking into February!

I am still not currently taking new grooming clients.
I am, however, still taking new boarding clients as well as bath clients (for coats that do not require full grooming)

I appreciate all of you so much for re-booking and keeping me busy!
