Once again it's 💕 while I try not to do repeats each year, there were a select few that I made sure we're on here (*cough*Lulu*cough*) 😂 but we've had so many hard losses this year. I had to include them. Also a disclaimer: if you never see your pup posted in a picture, it's probably b/c they look like they're about to be obliterated on our table at any minute. We'll send their pics to Sarah McLaughlin or ASPCA commercials 🤣

I was torn about sharing this or not, as I don't want to paint us in a bad light - but unfortunately this post is very true. There are ZERO regulations in our industry. No licensing. Nothing. When trying a new groomer you have to be very vigilant. Jackie and I have been grooming for over 20 years (each) and have come across all kinds of good and bad groomers. From all walks of life. Corporate. Private. Mobile. No one is better than another due to background, but it's important to know if they are competent or not. Ask questions. Get a feel. See if they are knowledgeable. Our industry is forever changing. Between tools, product, science. It's crazy. 2 decades in and we are no where near where we were in the beginning.

Did you know that pet grooming is a completely unregulated industry? There is no requirement for formal education, no required continuing education, and no required testing or certification?

Anyone and everyone can just pick up a pair of clippers and start advertising themselves as a groomer and charge people for a service they aren’t trained to perform.

It’s completely up to you, the owner, to do your research and make sure the person you are trusting with the health and safety of your pet is qualified to care for them.

Every groomer should be trained, and that very basic training takes months.

It takes years to truly master the ins and outs of grooming and everything that goes along with it.

Pet grooming is so much more than just a hair style.

*It’s knowing dog behavior and how to safely handle all the different personalities and quirks.

*It’s recognizing health conditions that would be better suited seeing a vet such as skin or ear infections.

*It’s being prepared for any and all emergencies that can happen, from seizures to allergic reactions, to nicks and cuts and quicked toenails without panicking.

*It’s knowing how to best deal with a variety of coat types properly.

*It’s being able to know when to stop a service on a particular dog due to behavior or health.

*It’s having the knowledge and patience to handle a different species while holding razor sharp clippers or 8 inch long scissors.

At the very least, the groomer you use should seek out continuing education to make sure they are current on the changes in the industry, from upgrades in products to tools that make the process easier for the pet and them.

They should be current on their pet cpr/first aid certification which needs repeated every couple of years.

They should be able to answer your grooming related questions with knowledge and confidence and if they don’t know the answer they should know where to find it.

They should have an emergency plan in place with a local veterinarian in case anything happens, because when working with animals it’s not a matter of if something happens, but when.

They should come recommended by other pet owners and pet professionals.

And it’s worth noting that there is nothing wrong with using a groomer that is still in training, but they should be working alongside an experienced groomer and under their direct supervision.

Ask the questions, after all you are paying them for a service. A groomer who has spent time and money to be as educated as possible is excited to share their knowledge!

Hey Fairy Tails Fam - one of our favorite rescues is having a fundraiser! Have to say, some of these shirts are *hilarious* (you'll know when you see it)🤣 Harley and I have already snagged some - if you don't want one, please just share. Sick cats are expensive 😵‍💫💕

Click the decal you want, then choose your color & size!!

Today is a very special day for Fairy Tails - it's time for the big *4-0* for the man, the myth, the legend, the only real reason Fairy Tails even exists, my husband 💕 he was not only the one who gave me the confidence to even start my own business but he is, of course the Dr Frankenstein who built my vans. All while continuing to grow with his own business (side shout out to B&M Custom Carpentry) - everyone show some love for the poor soul who has 3 women to deal with (Not only Jackie and I, but of course our daughter too 😂)

Happy birthday 🎂🎂🎂

Hey there Fairy Tails Fam - time for a summer update 😎🏝

Can you believe it's basically summer time?! School is letting out, and vacations are ready to go 🏖🏝 !!

That being said - - we just want to remind everyone, especially those that pre-book for the year *** 𝗗𝗢𝗨𝗕𝗟𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗖𝗞 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗢𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗢𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗦 *** - After every appointment we either send a text w/ the next appointment info on it and/or hand you an appointment card with all of the info on it. If you need to change the date/time - let us know ASAP.

While we do understand that summer can be chaotic w/ the kids, family, and vacations - and sometimes Fluffy's grooming becomes less important on the calendar, that
𝗗𝗢𝗘𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗧 give an excuse to have ignorance towards an appointment that was made. We are fully enforcing our cancellation policy of a $35 fee *per pet* if you cancel/reschedule with less than 2 days ' notice. 𝑫𝑶 𝑵𝑶𝑻 wait until you receive your confirmation text to cancel/reschedule. We cannot fill your slot when we have no notice, which then leads to losing income. To also add - those who start to make a habit of late cancellations will not be rescheduled. We take pride in being in very high demand and have to turn new customers away daily. Having customers who cannot commit to an appointment takes chunks of our valuable time away.

If you're unsure of your next appointment(s) just give a holler and either Jackie or I can get you a list 😁

One final tip - a lot of your pups will probably be boarding this season. Please please please PLEASE 𝑑𝑜 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑔𝑒𝑡 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑓𝑙𝑒𝑎/𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑘 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑠. Check with your vet to make sure your pup is on the best product for their own needs ❤️

We hope everyone has a super safe and awesome summer. We'll see you on the roads! 🚐🚚✌️

🎶Cut my leash into pieces
This is my bestest bork
Domestication
No breeding
Can't give a heck
Cause they neutered my we**ie 🎶

Sorry I couldn't help it when I saw I had this yawning blooper from Vinny today 😆

With the warmer weather comes the shorter haircuts ☀️ Cody here looks like a wooly mammoth over the winter with his long locks. Time for a total makeover ✂️ wouldn't it be great if we all lost 20 pounds after a haircut?? 🤣

24/04/2024

Ok I'll admit it, I'm horrible about posting Jackie's photos 😅 SO here's Mr. Jasper looking as dapper as ever 🎩❤️

Never knew September could bring a snow storm with it 🌨️ Miss Penny Lane had a *bit* of undercoat that had to come out. As much as she hates to admit it, she is a whole lot cooler now 😁
