Let's have a chat, Fam!

Winter is coming, and the number one thing I hear is "let's go longer!" And honestly? I'm all for it. Long, fancy, sculpted styles are where I thrive, and nothing beats a fluffy winter floof.
But here's the real talk: longer hair means more upkeep at home.

Keeping it 1/2" or shorter on a 6-8 week schedule? You're golden. Very little work on your end. Want to go longer but stay on that 6-8 week schedule? You'll need to brush AND comb through your pup a few times a week, especially if they're splashing in the river or plowing through the snow. Water and snow are tangle magnets!

But there's hope! You can have the long, dreamy, floofy winter pup and keep home maintenance low. Just book more often. For longer cuts, 2-5 weeks is the sweet spot. Tangles haven't had time to set in, and any little ones are easy work for me and my high-quality products. Your pup stays comfy, and you stay stress-free.

So, are we ready for more floof?

Ps. The best way to see the newest pictures are on my IG thelocalfloof

Smudge and Buster are ready for the 4th!

​🎆 4th of July is right around the corner! 🎆
​If your dog is afraid of fireworks, now is the time to contact your vet to discuss anxiety medication or calming solutions. Don't wait until the holiday week when appointments book up!
​It's also the perfect time to get your house prepped. You can start setting up a secure, quiet safe-haven indoors with comfort items, and plan for plenty of white noise or music to help mask those loud booms.
​Let's keep our pups safe, cozy, and calm this year!

Hi Fam,
​I’m going to be honest: hiring a new stylist and opening up my salon to a mass amount of new clients for the first time in three years has been a bit of a whirlwind!
​It has been so fun meeting new dogs and hearing new stories, and I love that the business is finally growing in the direction I’ve dreamed of. But I’ve hit a bit of a snag—I’ve become the bottleneck. Because you guys are so incredibly loyal, many of you are holding out specifically for my personal schedule. While I’m so flattered, it means I’m stuck in a spot where I can’t grow, and I can’t slow down. To be the best groomer (and business owner) I can be, I need to lean on my team.
​If you’ve been hesitant to book with my new stylist, I’m asking you to consider giving them a chance—not because you "have to," but because I trust them, and I am still right here.
​Here is my promise to you:
I am still hands-on in every single step of the process. I am overseeing the work, checking the details, and ensuring that the high standard of care you’ve come to expect at The Local Floof never wavers.
​By being open to a session with our new stylist, you’re helping my business breathe, and in return, you’re getting much more flexibility with your scheduling. You get the dates you actually want, and your dog still gets the premium care I’ve always insisted on.
​To those who have already made the jump—thank you for your trust. It means everything. To those who are on the fence, I invite you to have a conversation with me. Let’s find a way to make this work for you and your furry family.

Here are a few of the new faces we've welcomed into The Local Floof family over the last couple weeks.

Miss Luna is in for her seasonal glow-up! 👑 I don't get my hands on this girl often (thanks to High Desert Family Doodles and their stellar home maintenance!), but when I do, we go full "Queen" mode.

​It is so refreshing to see a breeder so deeply committed to ethical breeding and the long-term health of their dogs. The tireless work she puts into every pup’s well-being makes my job a breeze and ensures these dogs live their best lives.

​For anyone looking for a doodle, this is the breeder I recommend without hesitation. ✨🐾

If “If I look cute enough, maybe they’ll forget I smelled like a sewer” was a dog... it would be Duncan. 🐰
​If anyone was going to rock the bunny ears while recovering from a scent-related mishap, I knew it would be him. Someone (cough—Duncan—cough) decided to make friends with a "wild black and white kitty" and ended up smelling... memorable.
​After an intensive round of skunk-neutralizing treatments from his owners and a deep de-skunking bath here, he is officially back to his handsome, non-stinky self.
