Ear plucking: not all dogs grow hair in their ears, but those that do need it plucked sometimes. If you notice stray hairs, it’s okay! It was probably on purpose. Infected ears are a catch 22, they need plucked so the medicine can do its job better, but plucking also opens up those follicles and can make an infection worse. We do our best to choose appropriately for each dog and always advise seeing the vet if ears are smelly, inflamed, or gunky!

We haven’t done one of these in far too long, so let us introduce ourselves and see the faces behind our fluffy masterpieces!

⚠️Caution: if you don’t recognize us in the shop because we’re covered in dog hair and a little disheveled, don’t worry, we probably can’t recognize you without your dog either. 🫣🥸

Give blood Wednesday September 11th at the Coliseum to help raise funds for Poplar Bluff Animal Control !

There will be gift baskets, raffle tickets, etc to bid on during the event. They’ll have many great things to choose from, but the certificate for a Posh Paws groom is probably the best one 😜 All donation proceeds go directly to the shelter!

I recently took a trip down memory lane of precious Lucy. The first pic is when her owners found her homeless in 2018. Poor baby was matted and not in the best shape. Second is after her first groom with me! The following are before and afters of her most recent groom. 😍

It’s amazing what a good haircut and great home can do! 🥰🥹

Groomers 🤝🏼 pet parents

It’s always so fun when we can work together to achieve hair goals for our clients! We needed to start fresh with this sweet girl a while back and go short. Now she’s grown out, fluffy, and her owners took the time to learn more about the maintenance her specific coat needs. 🫶🏼 We may ask a lot of questions or have a lot to say, but I like to think it gives us the best shot at an outcome everyone loves! 🤩

Look who finally has business cards again! 🎉

We’ve all had the moment of panic with the “in between” at a hair salon, right? A toner that gripped a little too good and you rinse and pray it turns out? 🤣 Miss Lilly is nice and bright white after her blue shampoo! 🩵

I’m putting some feelers out to see how many people would be interested in coloring. I’m considering dedicating some time to creative grooming for clients as it’s something I love and brings me so much joy to create!

Pricing would vary depending on what we’re doing and time it involves. It can range anywhere from $15-$100+. There are temporary and permanent options and we would discuss what option would be best for your unique pup and what they were comfortable with. ALL creative grooms would be required to have recently been groomed here so we can better assess their compatibility with this specialized style. Creative grooming is a perfectly safe and fun outlet that can add a little pep in your pup’s step ✨

Below images are examples of past grooms on my own dogs.

I went from 203 to 137 faster than I though was possible. And, I'll never forget the look on my doctor's face when I walked into his office for my annual checkup.

“Are you doing that “Rice Method” I told you about?”, he stuttered.

So, I told him I've been doing it for the last few months and how it's really transforming my life and health.

"Nothing has EVER worked so fast for me!", I said with a BIG smile.

Even the nurses were complimenting me on my transformation and asking me how I had done it at my age.

It was the first time in almost 2 decades, I left my the doctor’s office feeling good about myself.

So, maybe this could help you too? Click below to see what the “Rice Method” is all about.

Southeast Missouri friends, check this out to make sure your pup is safe from heart worms!

A few years ago we partnered with Dr. Peggy Fisher to conduct research on the prevalence of drug-resistant heartworms in Southeast Missouri. Dr. Fisher completed and published her findings last week. The study (attached) confirmed complete resistance to ivermectin/avermectin products (such as Heartgard). However, she also found resistance to milbemycin (such as Interceptor Plus). Dr. Fisher calculates milbemycin effectiveness to be only 35.9% in our area. Moxidectin products (such as Simparica Trio, Proheart 6, and Proheart 12) are still 97-100% effective. Because of this, we will soon stop carrying milbemycin products. We strongly recommend these patients switch to a moxidectin based product during their annual exam. We are searching for a moxidectin only, low-cost substitute to milbemycin products.

This study was performed using samples from Southeast Missouri (including samples from some of our own patients) - as always check with your veterinarian before making changes to your pet’s medications.

Mason E. Bell, DVM

These natural catastrophes keep on coming 😅

Unfortunately, due to all this rain, like many others, it has backed up our pipes and we can’t currently run water. We have contacted all of our morning appointments, so if you have one this afternoon we will contact you shortly!

To all other clients, we hope to be back up and running quickly and will get all messages responded to asap after the previous appointments have been moved.
