We thought Worm couldn’t get any more attitude in his tiny body (he clearly didn’t love the skirt)… then he went and became a little witch. 🧙‍♀️💚

He’s now casting spells at The Better Bark. So far he’s only mastered making cheese disappear.🪄

We’re calling it Wormcraft.🕯️

Bella’s mom surprised the salon with cupcakes today to celebrate her baby girl turning ONE, and we were more than happy to help with the festivities. 🥳

Bella, however, seemed a little suspicious about why all those cupcakes were sitting so close to her and somehow none of them were for her. 😂 We should’ve videoed how quick Bella is when there is frosting involved! 🤣

Happy Birthday, Bella Ruse! Here’s to many more years of living the good life 🫶

Meet Duck. 🦆🐩

Yes… Duck is a poodle. No, we don’t make the rules. 😂

She came in for her spa day and was an absolute sweetheart from start to finish. 😊 Duck has the perfect combination of fancy poodle, teddy bear, and “I know I’m perfect” energy. She even has a little splash of white on one paw just to make her extra special!

If it barks like a duck, then it must be Duck…or something like that! 🤣

This sweet girl was found wandering in the Country Walk subdivision with no owner able to be located. She was very matted and clearly needed some help, so we offered to give her a free groom to get her cleaned up, comfortable, and feeling like herself again. 🛁

And the best part? The wonderful family who found her has fallen completely in love with her and decided to keep her if no one comes forward. 🥹 She is apparently just as amazing on the inside as she is adorable on the outside.

We’re so glad we could play a tiny part in giving this girl a fresh start. Just look at that before and after! ✂️🐶✨

Sometimes the right dog finds the right family exactly when they’re supposed to. ❤️

🐾🏡 BROWNIE IS LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER HOME! 🏡🐾

This handsome boy is Brownie, a 6-year-old Lab who Groomer Katie is currently fostering after he came from a shelter. ❤️ I’m hoping to find him a loving FOREVER home where he can finally settle in and be part of a family. (Video in comments)

🐶 A little about Brownie:

🤎 6-year-old Lab
🤎 Neutered
🤎 Up to date on all of his shots
🤎 Completely house trained
🤎 LOVES to swim! 🏊‍♂️
🤎 The perfect hiking buddy 🥾🌲
🤎 Great with dogs, cats AND ducks! 🐕🐈🦆
🤎 Great with kids 👧🏼👦🏼
🤎 Loves to cuddle and will sleep right beside you in bed at night 🥹❤️

Brownie does need a home with a fenced-in yard where he has room to run, play and enjoy being outside.

He is such a sweet boy and has so much love to give. After coming from a shelter, I really want to make sure the next chapter of his life is with someone who will love him, take care of him, and make him a part of the family. 🥹🐾

If you think Brownie could be your new best friend, please message me! ❤️

Please SHARE to help Brownie find his forever family! 🏡🐶🤎
