I somehow didn't get hardly any photos of Sammy with candy corn ears! I used an airbrush and it stayed on surprisingly well for over a week.

Merlot's all decked out, and Texas doesn't stand a chance. Who needs horns when you've got paws like these? 🐾🏈

Why would a person ever dye thier service dog?
🙈Enhanced Visibility: Bright or distinctive colors can make a service dog more visible in crowded or busy environments, which might help others recognize and respect the service dog's presence and role. It also helps people not step on them!
🥷Reduction of Theft: highly trained dogs are saught after but having them easily identifiable makes them significantly less likely to be stolen.
😁Increased Happiness: colorful dogs are cute and you'll be happier. When they are off duty they'll get extra lovin' from everybody!

Did you know there are creative grooming competitions? I had the incredible opportunity to meet an award-winning creative groomer, Milena Kon, and it was truly inspiring! 🏆👩🏽‍🎨I attended a class where Milena shared her innovative grooming techniques with an airbrush . I was fortunate enought to catch her for some one-on-one time at her booth where I splurged on tools from her creative grooming line. What airbrush design would you like to see on a dog? I'll try it on paper first!

In January of 2023, I did my first ever creative groom on a pup named Smidge.
I transformed her into a zebra and my work blew up online. This is when I discovered creative grooming my niche.
I've done over 30 creative grooms since then and have loved every minute.
This is why I am asking for you, the ones who have been watching and supporting my work to nominate me for
✨Best New Creative Groomer✨ in the 2023 Opawz awards.
To submit me as a nominee click the link on this post
Select the "best new creative groomer" category and type “Karmyn Zabonik"

Opawz is the brand I use to create my looks. They have highlighted my work before and my cow design is on their website as an example photo for their color 'super black.’
I do have so much fun doing this but I also do it to give back to the community. Several of my creative grooms have been donations for local rescues to help get their pup's adopted. This is why it would mean so much to see that work acknowledged. Thank you!

Nominate up to 5 groomers per category. The OPAWZ team will sort through the submissions and combine them with our list to create a list of top 6 groomers in each category to move onto the finals list. Polls close February 29. About OPAWZ Awards The OPAWZ Awards is to recognize outstanding creative....

This is Starsky, he's available for adoption at Oklahoma Pet Collective Society - OPCS if you can't adopt but have the ability to foster, he is also in need of a foster family right now.
