“For dog guardians, I think the key is to be wary of quick fixes and to look for a trainer who can clearly explain their approach, prioritize the dog’s emotional and physical well-being, and help them understand the emotions and needs behind the behavior. Behaviors that look like “defiance” are often rooted in fear, frustration, anxiety, confusion, or a mismatch between the dog’s needs and environment. A good trainer should help both the dog and the guardian learn—not simply suppress behavior.”

Reward-based dog trainers place greater emphasis on education and science than those who use aversives, study shows.

100% this!
Longer coat requires more maintenance!

🚨 GROOMER PSA: WANT TO LEAVE YOUR DOG’S COAT LONGER FOR WINTER? READ THIS! 🚨

As temperatures drop, I hear this a LOT:
“I want to leave them longer so they stay warm!” ❄️🐶
And yes keeping your dog’s coat longer during the colder months is absolutely an option!

But here’s the important part:

LONGER COAT DOES NOT MEAN LESS GROOMING.

When you stretch out appointments, that extra length can quickly turn into tangles and mats. Add in moisture, dirt, sweaters, blankets, and everyday activity, and those tangles can become difficult or even impossible to safely brush out.

And once a coat is severely matted, your groomer may have no choice but to take it much shorter than you originally wanted. 😭✂️

So if you want that fluffy winter coat, keep it on a routine!

🐾Stay consistent with professional grooming
🐾Brush regularly at home
🐾 Make sure you’re brushing all the way to the skin
🐾 Pay extra attention to behind the ears, armpits, legs, and sanitary areas
🐾 Keep the coat clean and dry
🐾 Talk with your groomer about the length you want and how to appropriately maintain it.

And now for another winter favorite…

“My dog is shaking because their haircut is too short!”
Sometimes… they’re shaking because IT’S COLD! 😂❄️ truth is, your house temp may not change. It may even be adjusted to warmer. If they live inside, this is the temp you need to consider more when choosing their haircut, over the outdoor temps.

A longer haircut can provide some extra warmth, but it doesn’t make your dog immune to cold temperatures. When it’s chilly outside, consider shorter outdoor time, and other appropriate cold weather precautions.

Want to keep more length this winter? Don’t stop grooming, maintain it! ❤️

A healthy, clean, mat free coat will always be more comfortable than a long, neglected one.

As always, if you have any grooming questions feel free to message me or comment below 👇
