Congratulations! Fido and Fluffy now get to have less sun exposure and perhaps a little doggie sunscreen! All goofiness aside, let's once again touch base on a sensitive subject. Matted/tangled/impacted/pelted pets!

While double coated breeds technically shouldn't be clipped down, unfortunately some conditions require doing so for your pet's ultimate comfort.

Your dog's coat is meant to protect them however when they are matted/tangled/impacted/pelted, that is far from possible.

Their coats are meant to raise in warmer environments to allow air flow to the skin in order to help regulate their temp and cool them down, with these less ideal conditions, they will not be able to do so properly. In cooler environments, the coat lowers to help insulate and keep that body heat contained to keep them warm. Sadly, due to lack of proper maintenance, the damage has accumulated and is irreversible!

With these conditions, groomers sometimes see bruising(hematoma), skin sores, hot spots, parasites, not to mention the pet will act completely different in some cases as they went from carrying all of that weight and tension plus in some cases have not been properly groomed in some time to a naked creature. Naked and afraid is a thing!

These conditions are costly to address, we wish shaving them down was the "easy route" however it is far from it. Shaving down these coats takes extra time rather than brushing and providing a desirable cut. In some cases, opens us up for increases bite risk as it is painful for the pet and they are going to communicate that to us!

While we understand it's not desireable, please understand that your pet's comfort and happiness are our top priority. Our groomers are not in the business of torturing your pet by endless dematting which includes excessive pulling regardless of the groomer's best efforts to move slowly and gently.

If you have a pet experiencing these concerns, we are always happy to consult with you and help you gather a game plan to avoid costly and painful conditions! We would be delighted to show you the proper techniques to maintaining your best pal! 🐾

We will have very limited grooming openings available that week so please call/text for availability as our online portal will not show available grooming for that week. Boarding Pick Up & Drop off hours are set to 9am or 5pm however if you have a specific time needed, please call us so we can ensure we are there for you!

Would you look at this precious baby! Let's find her a top notch home! She looks like a gal that would love a stroll in the beautiful Paradise weather jogging with her human companion, taking in the beauty of the good life! Contact Laramie Animal Welfare Society - LAWS to meet her! Paws and fingers crossed she finds the perfect home just in time for all of the summer shenanigans happening in Laradise!

Update- Mya has found an amazing forever family. Thank you all for the shares and interest💕🐾

Can you believe we didn’t even receive one single inquiry/adoption application on sweet Mya??!! Let’s try it again.

🌟 Meet Mya! 🌟
This gorgeous girl is currently available through for adoption!!

All About Mya:
Mya is the total package — stunning, sweet, and social! With her beautiful coat, striking markings, and mesmerizing heterochromia eyes, she’s a showstopper. But it’s her heart that truly shines. Mya loves everyone — dogs, cats, and people of all ages!

She’s affectionate, eager to please, and always looking to make new friends. She’s also:
✅ House-trained
✅ Knows basic commands (sit, down, stay)
✅ Food & affection motivated
✅ Quick to adjust to new routines

Mya can be a little enthusiastic on walks, so she’ll benefit from a confident handler and a bit more leash practice — but she learns fast and loves earning praise.

🐾 Mya was surrendered to LAWS due to her previous family’s financial hardship — no fault of her own. She’s settled into her foster home beautifully, made fast friends with the resident pets, and is ready to start the next chapter of her life with a forever family.

Mya is so excited to meet you! 💕

The handsomest Sir Sullivan! Sullivan is a ! He sings his favorite songs during his grooming sessions and LOVES to go home feeling fresh and with a lot less undercoat just for the ladies. Disclaimer: Sorry ladies, this guy won't be stamping his handsomeness as he is neutered, but he sure is flirtatious and will make you drool while envying his stunning appearance!

We get to deal with poo-tastrophies every single day. Usually right after those sweeties are dropped off 🤣 🤦‍♀️
