🌟 Good morning, everyone! 🌟

We are open today and ready to pamper your furry friends! 🐾 The roads leading to our facility are mostly clear, with just a few slick and slushy spots.

Please note that our driveway has not been plowed yet. However, it’s currently accessible for both 2WD and 4WD vehicles.

We can’t wait to see you and your pups! 🐶❤️

🌟 Hey everyone! I just had to share this fun competition I stumbled upon after voting for a friend's adorable pup! 🐾 There are so many cute pets vying for a spot on the cover of Modern Dog magazine, and it’s a great chance to check out some fantastic pet care articles while you’re at it. Plus, they have amazing giveaways for awesome products!

You can cast a free vote every day or purchase extra votes—every dollar counts as a vote and goes to a great cause! All proceeds support PAWS (Progressive Animal Welfare Society), a 501(c)(3) organization that rehabilitates orphaned and injured wildlife, shelters and adopts homeless pets, and promotes compassionate action for animals through education and outreach.

If Loomis secures enough votes, he could be on the cover! Not only will he gain superstar status, but his unique story will be featured in a special 2-page spread. And let’s be real—he might need to open a bank account to pay for his food bill if he wins that $10,000! 💰🐕

Let’s make this happen! Go vote for Loomis by following the attached link! 🎉✨

Loomis loves snowy playtime, has a hilarious sense of humor that keeps everyone laughing, is super smart, and enjoys freeze-dried treats!

**Hey Bark Fam!**

We wanted to give you a heads-up that Bark Beauty will be closed today due to the ongoing weather and road conditions. A big thank you to everyone who managed to reschedule their pups—we truly appreciate it and always prioritize the health and safety of you and your furry friends!

As this cold front sticks around, here are a few things to keep in mind:

- **Paw Check:** Snow melt can be tough on those little paws, so make sure to wipe down your pet’s feet, legs, and belly as soon as you’re back inside.
- **Inspect for Issues:** Keep an eye out for cracked pads or bleeding; those paws can be sensitive in this weather.
- **Bundle Up:** Some pups love playing in the snow, but others might need an extra layer. A cozy sweater can help keep them warm!
- **Protective Gear:** If you have doggy booties or paw balm, now’s the time to use them to keep those paws safe.

Thanks for your understanding, and stay warm out there!

Love,
The Bark Beauty Team

🌨️❄️ Hey Bark Beauty fam! It’s snowy adventure time! Loomis and I are out here clearing the driveways, de-icing everything, and keeping those pipes from freezing! 🧊💪 He isn’t too keen on the time of just 10 to 15 minutes of playtime outside, but let me tell you, while we’re all freezing cold, watching him toss snowballs and climb those epic snow piles, he’s having the time of his life! 🐾❄️

Just a quick heads-up: if you need to reschedule your grooming appointment, no worries at all! I believe I’ve reached out to all my fabulous clients with appointments on Tuesday. Your safety is my top priority, and I wouldn’t want you to risk it on these rough roads!

Stay warm, stay safe, and let me know if you’d like updates on the weather or if you want to reschedule! 🌨️❤️

# # # National Pet Travel Safety Day: Tips for Safe Travels with Your Furry Friends

Happy National Pet Travel Safety Day! As we celebrate on January 2, let’s dive into fun and essential tips to ensure our furry companions are safe and comfy on our adventures. Whether you’re catching a flight or hitting the open road, these tips will help you and your pet travel like pros!

# # # # Air Travel Tips

1. **Book Direct Flights**: Whenever possible, go for direct flights. It’s less stressful for both you and your pet—less time in transit means more time for cuddles!

2. **Vet Check-Up**: Schedule a vet appointment ahead of time. Ensure your pet is up to date on vaccinations and ready for the journey.

3. **USDA Approved Crate**: Invest in a spacious, secure crate. Your pet should be able to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably—no cramming allowed!

4. **Identification**: Label your pet’s crate with your contact information. This is super important in case of any mix-ups.

5. **Notify Airline Staff**: Let airline staff know about your pet—this helps keep everyone informed and can make a big difference!

# # # # Road Trip Tips

1. **Prep Your Pet**: Take your furry friend on short drives to get them comfortable with car travel. It’s like a mini adventure!

2. **Secure Your Pet**: Keep them safe in a well-ventilated crate or carrier during the trip. Safety first!

3. **Never Leave Pets in a Hot Car**: On warm days, never leave your pet alone in a parked car. It can heat up dangerously fast!

# # # # Essential Travel Kit

Pack a fun travel kit for your pet that includes:
- **Food and Water Bowls**: Hydration is key!
- **Leash**: Perfect for bathroom breaks and exploring.
- **Plastic Bags**: For quick clean-ups during pit stops.
- **Grooming Supplies**: Keep your pet looking fabulous.
- **Medication**: Don’t forget their necessary meds!
- **First Aid Kit**: Be prepared for any bumps or scrapes.
- **Travel Documents**: Keep vaccination records handy.
- **Favorite Toy or Pillow**: Comfort items can ease anxiety.

Traveling with your pet can be a joy when done right. Follow these tips to make sure your furry friend enjoys the ride just as much as you do!

I travel with my pet everywhere, so if you want recommendations or need help putting together a travel kit, just let me know! Happy travels! 🐾✈️
