The Pink Chihuahua

It is with much sadness that I have decided to close my business effective September 7th, 2024. First, I want to take a moment to thank you, and to express my sincere gratitude for your loyalty and support over the past few years. I have friends that have been clients, but many more clients that have become dear friends.

For those interested, I will be working in a small one-on-one salon in North Charleston (not far from the airport). I will be continuing weekend appointments in my home on Johns Island. You can continue to message me for booking information.

I am recommending Shawna with Posh Pets. She is aware of this transition and is happy to accommodate my clients. She is one-on-one and located right near Panera. Her website is: https://theposhpetsalonandspa.com/home

I will continue my MOBILE NAIL TRIMS in Mount Pleasant on the first Friday of every month. Please book directly with me.

Thank you for trusting me through the years. It has been my honor. 💔

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. 💚🩶🖤

**CHARLESTON COUNTY RESIDENTS ONLY with kittens under 6 months old**

Charleston Animal Society’s Sam Greer Spay and Neuter Clinic will offer FREE Spay/Neuter surgeries for Charleston County residents with KITTENS up to 6 months old from May 15 to June 15. Litters are welcome; kittens must be between 2 months-6 months old and weigh at least 2lbs to qualify. Limited spots available. The $75 deposit that is required with regular appointments is not required for appointments that qualify for this promotion.

Kitten Season is here! And while we love every little fluffball that comes into our care, the influx of homeless or unwanted kittens born each year during the Spring and Summer months indicates a larger problem.

Each year, over 180 million kittens are born, often without anyone to care for them. This overpopulation creates strain on shelters and communities worldwide. The best way to prevent unnecessary euthanasia and overpopulation is through Spay/Neuter!
Sign up your kittens for a FREE Spay or Neuter Surgery at https://charlestonanimalsociety.org/spay-neuter/

Each kitten will also receive a free microchip and vaccinations during this time. Sign up your kittens today at https://charlestonanimalsociety.org/spay-neuter/

I groomed this sweet Doodle for Charleston Animal Society this morning (under sedation). She was completely matted and encased in urine and f***s. She was an owner surrender; about one year old. She will be spayed within the next week and available for adoption. Please reach out if interested.

She deserves better.

I love this.

Today I had one of my friends who has previously been a huge challenge and definitely a best he can do groom. He did his best and we actually got done! Then I had a new friend who didn’t like clippers on his front legs so we did our best and then I scissored it even. Finally I had a cat with some pretty severe matting. We got him done, but if he hadn’t nuzzled into mom I was so close to saying I’d have to come back to finish. We didn’t do his bath though as he’d had enough. 🥈 🥉
