Please do your research! Most of the doodles I groom are great dogs with loving owners, but I’ve seen too many like this poor creature over time. They require a lot of work and maintenance and yes they are very energetic.

I know we have a couple days to go, but MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!! Thank you all so much for another successful year. You’ve all been so great and I wish I could put into words just how much we love all of your crazy little hairballs. Be safe, stay warm and we’ll see you all again after the New Year. ❤️❤️

Hey p*eps… I’m sure I don’t need to say this, but I will anyway. Keep those furry babies inside this week! Let the outside animals in and try to provide extra food and shelter for the strays. Be forgiving if they p*e or p**p in the house. Would you want to potty outside in this? This will be a brutal week for all animals and they need our help. Love you all! Merry almost Christmas! ❤️❤️ 🐕 🐈‍⬛ 🐰 💩

Everyone wish a happy birthday to this sweet lady! Andrea Andyoaklee Lee keeps blessing me with these two big oafs and I love every moment with them. Happy Birthday Andy! We love you guys. ❤️❤️

Ok p*eps… it’s the season for 🦨🦨🦨. We had out first smelly boy of the season today. I have a few helpful hints for you if your favorite 4 legged family member decides to play tag with Pepe Lepew.
DON’T GET YOUR DOG WET! Not until you use this magical little formula first.

Baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, and original dawn dish soap. Mix to a consistency of cake batter and work it into the dog’s coat. Please don’t get it in their eyes. You’ll need a lot so don’t be shy about making a bunch. Also you can use a soft brush to really work it down to the skin. Let it sit for 10-20 minutes and rinse very thoroughly. If there’s still skunk smell do it again. Then wash with quality dog shampoo. This is our favorite go to and it works so well.

03/03/2022

Good morning! I want to give you all a heads up that we will be raising prices on almost all dogs. I tried to avoid doing this, but unfortunately the economy is getting us too. Most increases will be only $5, but a few of our larger and more time consuming dogs may go up a little more than that. Thank you for your understanding and most of all thank you for your loyalty over the years. ❤️❤️

This little one found a forever home.

Ok everyone… get ready for cuteness overload! I have an amazing client who raises doodle puppies and has one left from a litter that is looking for his forever home. Mom is an F1B golden doodle and dad is a standard poodle. The little guy is an F1BB golden doodle. He will be ready to go March 2nd. You can contact Lori Gager at 308-660-4536 or find her on FB.

This is my foster dog Marley. He’s cute as hell. His cuteness has been both his curse and his blessing in life. Marley bites. Bad. Marley was a cute puppy. He was treated like a stuffed toy by a young child who wasn’t supervised with him. When Marley got big enough he started to defend himself from this unintended abuse the only way a dog knows how. With his teeth.

At ten months old Marley was surrendered, covered in mats because the family who bought him didn’t understand the needs of a hypoallergenic dog. By this time the damage was done. Imagine not washing your hair for months the whole time someone was dragging you around like you were a teddy bear.

So what do you do with a dog that’s snappy and won’t let you get close to it? You lock it in a cage. You let your frustrations get to you and you shove him into the cage because he’s biting you while your trying to get him in there. So now he obviously has issues with the cage.

Marley was sent to a training facility that deals with aggressive dogs. I have worked with some very aggressive dogs. Marley is not an aggressive dog. Marley has no trust in people because all they have ever done is wrong him. Marley is terrified to be touched the wrong way because all his life he has been shown that touch only leads to pain and hurt.

They said he had no respect and that he was unfixable and unadoptable. When I first heard his story I laughed, I thought he was a poodle with an attitude. Now that I have known him a while I know better. I can see the pain and the suffering this dog has been through. The animals don’t have a voice but if you know what your looking at they will tell you their story. Marley now has a voice, mine, and I am telling his story.

Marley is going to be with me quite a while so he can learn to trust people again, working at his own pace towards his recovery. Marley is well trained. He can sit, stay, come, lay down, roll over, Fetch (exceptionally good at Fetch), and high five. He is house trained. He follows the rules of the house. He walks well on a leash. Marley does not need training. Marley needs to recover.

I’m writing this with Marley at my feet. A dog that was a gift to a small child. A dog that was supposed to be therapeutic. A dog that was made into a monster. So this holiday season please remember; a dog is NOT a gift. A dog is NOT the responsibility of children. A dog (any dog) is NOT to be left unattended with children. A puppy/new dog is NOT a therapy dog. A therapy dog is a therapy dog. It takes years of expensive training to turn a dog into a therapy dog. You don’t buy them from some donkey selling designer puppies out of their backyard. A dog is NOT an impulse. If you want a non shedding dog be prepared to take care of that hair. If you want a German Shepard be prepared for all the training required. If you want a Dalmatian be prepared to deal with a stubborn pain in the ass.

At the beginning of this I said his cuteness was his curse and blessing in life. The curse is obvious after reading this. The blessing? If Marley looked like a Pit bull he would have been put down a long time ago.

FLEAS!!! They’re everywhere! It’s getting colder so they’re jumping on every warm body they can find. Rabbits carry them, squirrels carry them and they live in your lawn. If your pets get them they will live in your house. Are you creeped out yet?? You should be! Treat your dogs please!!!

11/09/2020

Happy New Year!! I want to say a very sincere THANK YOU to each and every one of you for helping our little shop be successful. Without you, our clients, we wouldn’t exist. I can honestly say that we love what we do.

We fall in love with each and every dog that walks in, is carried in, or for those scaredy-cats.... coerced through our door. We love on them, celebrate them, and cry for them when they move away or pass along.

We’ve made new friends as we’ve gotten to know you and I’m amazed every day at the number of really great people who honor us with their business.

I want to say thank you to Mom (Cheri), April, Rose, and Joey. Without your hard work and love for the dogs, we wouldn’t be where we are.

Here’s to 2020! May it be full of amazing friends, dirty dogs, wagging tails and kisses. ❤️❤️

We hope all of your little, and big, furballs had a very Merry Christmas! Thank you everyone for putting up with us through the crazy holiday season! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
