🐾 November is Senior Pet Month! 🐾

This month, is all about celebrating senior pets and raising awareness about adopting older animals who need loving homes. Senior pets make wonderful companions with so much love to give! 🐶🐱

It’s also a time to focus on their care. Here are some tips:
• Wellness exams twice a year 🩺
• Baseline bloodwork & x-rays 📋
• Watch for signs of aging like cloudy eyes or decreased mobility 👀
• Keep nails trimmed & teeth clean for their comfort and health 🦷✂️
• Make food & water easy to reach 🍲
• Notice behavioral changes that could indicate discomfort 🐾

A dog's age at which it's considered a senior depends on its breed and size:
Small breeds: Around 10–12 years old
Medium breeds: Around 8–9 years old
Large and giant breeds: Around 6–7 years old

Let’s give senior pets the love and care they deserve! And if you have a senior pet, share a photo in the comments below! ❤️Heres my sweet bossy girl Jemma 🫶🏼

From showing signs of trauma to eventually trusting the process, it’s always heartwarming when a pet can feel comfortable and safe during grooming. It’s so rewarding to be a part of that journey. 🐾

It's always appreciated when a pet parent gives you a heads-up about any behavioral challenges their pet might have during grooming. I actually love working with these cases because it allows me to observe what the dog may communicate about their past experiences.

There’s nothing more REWARDING than when I don’t see any of those behaviors during their session!

This proves the success of my approach, where valuing the pet as an equal makes all the difference. Trust your pet's communication over any shop's assumptions.

Do you see Cali’s smile? I sure do!

From the book of Memories;

Knowledge is key when it comes to pet care! 🐾
As professionals, we're trained in handling matting, breed-specific grooming, and animal behavior—skills that take years to develop. While I love helping you with at-home care, please leave the scissors and clippers to us!

Your pet's safety is my priority, and grooming isn't as simple as it may seem. Trying to groom at home can put your pet at risk. Saving money shouldn't come at the cost of their health. Remember, a professional haircut is far less costly than a vet bill—and in some cases, it could even save your pet's life!

Did you know a dog's nose is 40 times more sensitive than a human's? With up to 300 million scent receptors, dogs can detect individual smells even when they're mixed together! Their incredible sense of smell helps them track scents, identify people, and even detect health conditions like cancer or diabetes. Plus, each dog's nose print is unique—just like our fingerprints!

Poodles are more than just their fancy haircuts! Here are some ✨✨official AKC facts✨✨that showcase why this breed is a fan favorite:

🐾 Smart & Versatile: Ranked second in intelligence, just behind the Border Collie! Poodles are known for their smarts and versatility. They excel in activities like obedience, agility, and even hunting! 🧠🐾

🐩 Water-Loving Retrievers: Poodles were originally bred as water retrievers in Germany, with their iconic curly coat helping them stay warm while swimming. Their stylish trim was designed to protect vital areas while allowing them to move freely in the water.

🐾 Hypoallergenic & Low-Shedding: According to the AKC, poodles are considered hypoallergenic because of their minimal shedding, making them an excellent choice for allergy sufferers. You can enjoy all the snuggles without the sneezes!

🐩 Three Distinct Sizes: Whether you prefer a big or small companion, poodles come in three sizes: Standard (over 15 inches), Miniature (10-15 inches), and Toy (under 10 inches). All sizes share the same elegant traits!

Double Coated Dog ⚠️Warning⚠️

Shedding Season is upon us! Double-coated dogs shed their undercoat twice a year, this usually happens in the spring & fall.

☀️🌻 In the spring, the dog sheds its dense undercoat that kept it warm in the winter.
🍃🍁 In the fall, it sheds its lighter summer undercoat.

Do you feel like your dog sheds regularly? Yes! The rest of the year, double-coated dogs shed normally, which is similar to how all animals with hair shed. However, some dogs, like those that live indoors in climate-controlled environments, may shed year-round to maintain their comfort!

Double-coated dogs have two layers of fur: a topcoat of long, stiff hairs and an undercoat of soft hairs. The topcoat protects the dog's skin and repels water, while the undercoat keeps the dog warm in the winter and cool in the summer. The two layers work together, but they have different structures and functions, so dogs shed them at different rates.

The fall season is upon us! To get ahead of the shedding + the benefits of a happy healthy dog & home, it is the perfect time to maintain the coat with grooming!

Your dogs coat is going to drop twice as much hair these next 2 months!

Monthly visits are an excellent way to cut down on hair in the home, seasonal visits are a great way to get ahead of the hair to keep your pets skin&coat healthy and happy!!
