Jessie Paws the Attitude, LLC updated her service list and I wanted to share. Summer is coming! She does it all from training to boarding to a fun day camp! She is one of my favorite humans. 💜 🐾

We loved collaborating with Doggie Drawings by Lili Chin on this infographic! There are so many ways to play, and it has a huge effect on your dog's well-being, behavior modification, bonding, and (of course) training.

With lots of these common foods coming into season, here is a quick infographic on foods that are toxic to your dog. Some aren’t so obvious! If you give your dog a bite of chicken make sure it is not seasoned with onion or garlic!

Looking for a groomer? I just visited Alysse’s salon on Geer Rd in Turlock (Wag This Way) and it’s so cute! She’s taking on new clients! You can text her at (209) 262-1554 or request an appt by going to her booking site:

Alysse, Taylor and Britney are AMAZING! My favorite part, besides the humans there, is the giant window! Your pups could do some bird watchin’ while they wait for you to come get them!

Welp, they did it again. Many of you know my story about how I was sold a complete lemon. The “people” who sold it to me knew darn well it was on its last leg but took my 20k anyway. This time they did it to an expectant mother. She has started a GoFundMe and her story is on the page. If you’ve been in the grooming industry you can probably guess who sold us these bunk busses. I won’t name them - the snake will eventually eat its own tail on its own. But we are pretty angry and upset about this. If you could share her GoFundMe me or donate it would help her so much!

MODESTO FRIENDS (and friends of friends 😉) my friend Brianna started grooming part time at Mchenry PetSmart and has room for dogs tomorrow! (Sunday 4/2)

She has been a friend and colleague for almost 15 years and 13 of those she’s been grooming. She’s patient and gentle and I love her!

You can either call 209-574-0441 or schedule online or with the PetSmart app. (Just make sure to pick Mchenry PetSmart and you can choose her name to see her availability.)

PetSmart does require current rabies paperwork, so remember to bring that!

Sunday fresh dog day!

I don’t groom Ahri, but the last time I came to groom her sister she brought me a dead bird. Dad said, “oh she brought you a gift!” So, I decided to return the favor this visit with a cute squeaky plush.

Can you believe this is the same dog?! Mom sent me a message saying, “Remember when Coco was brown?” I said “Shut up! Really?” I didn’t believe it, so I went back through our message history and sure enough… when I first stated grooming her she was brown! Dad picked her out specifically for the brown because he didn’t want a little white dog… well joke’s on him 😂 Happy Birthday Coco!! She turned 1 last week.

Leticia has appointments available next week! Text her or fill out a booking request to snag a spot! If you’ve filled out a form already she is going through that waitlist, but it doesn’t hurt to submit another.

My dear friend Jessie lost everything to a fire. Her home, vehicle and clothing. Thank God she was able to save her pets. She has set up a GoFundMe to help get back on her feet. She also has CashApp (which I will link in the comments) if you’d like to help her.
