‼️‼️FOSTER/PERMANENT HOME NEEDED‼️‼️Around 9pm last night we had a dog dumped on us. He was scared and scratching at my in-laws door trying to get inside. We do not have the space or the resources to keep him, and our local shelters are already at max capacity.

*super sweet little guy, maybe 20-ish pounds
*looks to be 1-2 years old
*friendly with our dogs and cats
*already neutered!
*seems potty trained, didn’t have any accidents in his kennel last night
*pulls a bit on leash, but not bad. He’s just an excited young dog
*he is hacking a bit so he should be taken to a vet to see if he needs antibiotics or something

Guys I really need help finding this sweet boy a place to stay, so if you can please share this post to get his info out there I’d greatly appreciate it. We can keep him kenneled in our garage until Friday, then we’ll have to turn him loose and send him on his way.

Sweet Caturday kitties 😻😻 Salt was such a brave first-timer!! Miss Belle isn’t the biggest fan of bath time, but as soon as we wrap her up in a towel and give her some ear scratches she starts purring for us again!

We have ONE spot left for this Caturday!! (August 17th) We have to work on our roof so we have fewer spots available this month. To book, message me to discuss grooming details and drop off times. 😻😻
Friendly reminder that we do not take walk-ins. Cats without a scheduled appointment will be turned away.

Kacey was an absolute rockstar today!! She had so much impacted fur but she was so patient for all of the brushing and dematting. She will be patiently waiting for her forever family at the Carthage MO Humane Society, but hopefully she won’t have to wait long!! 🤞🏼 🐶
Kacey is super sweet, loves holding hands and giving kisses, plus she’s absolutely beautiful! She also walks nicely on a leash, and didn’t seem bothered by our dogs, cats, or chickens.
Even if you aren’t able to adopt Miss Kacey, please take a second to share this post so that more potential families can see her! 💜💙💜

This is a long read, but a good one! Pets that aren’t groomed on a schedule (typically 4, 6, and 8 week schedules) are more likely to struggle with grooming. They can struggle to get used to their groomer, the noisy tools, and a different environment. Pets with longer hair will typically always be matted when they aren’t kept on a routine grooming schedule. Routine makes the process so much easier for our furry friends (and their groomer!)
Clients are always welcome rebook when they drop off or pick up their pets, or any time in between. I do my best to be flexible and accommodating, but the earlier the better so you can get the time and day you want.

Finding a groomer you and your dog love & trust & sticking with them is not just convenient, but can be crucial. Here's why:

This is Bert the Scottie. He was diagnosed with diabetes about 5 months ago, and in a matter of about 6 weeks has gone almost completely blind as a result of the diabetes. 💔

Bert has been a Canine Cosmuttology client for almost 4 years now so he knows his groomers voice and routine very well by now. He knows the smells of our products as we do not change them. He knows the sounds of our tools and how they feel. And he knows the common cue words his groomer uses to prepare him for procedures such as asking him "are you ready?" to let him know we're about to proceed with something.

"The Name Game" is a common technique used by fear free and behavior specialist groomers alike to put a name or "cue" to a tool or procedure that the dog is able to understand and predict what is about to happen to them during the grooming process. For example, the groomer will name a slicker brush for the dog and may say "are you ready? We're going to brush" and the dog within a few grooming appointments learns what the "brush" is and what to expect.

This becomes crucial in cases like blindness. Bert won't have to be afraid and worry about what we're going to be doing now that he suddenly can't see during the grooming process because he knows many of the tools and procedures by name now and knows the order in which they are done for his individual comfort level. Beyond that, he knows his groomer loves him deeply, that he can trust her, and that she will respect and pay attention to his subtle body language cues of discomfort or fear.

When you find a groomer you and your dog love and trust, rebook and stay with them for your dogs sake. It means more to your dog than you know. 💚🩶🖤

I have a couple of last minute appointment spots available this week!!
I’ll be going out of town Friday evening and won’t be back for a bit. I’m also scheduling out for when I get back, for pups that aren’t quite ready for a haircut yet, but will be by the time I get back. 🐶 🐶
