Saddle Mtn Dog Grooming

Saddle Mtn Dog Grooming Master groomer with over 40 years experience. All breeds welcome. Scissor finish, no cage dryers. This helps me maintain training while dogs are being groomed.

SHOP RULES & WHAT TO EXPECT

My mother was one of the founding Members of the National Groomer's Association. She is still my biggest fan, and if you are really lucky you could have the honor of meeting her in my shop! I have a tendency to be a perfectionist, I consider what I do to be a dying art ( there are zero regulations in the grooming industry therefore anyone can buy clippers and

open shop). I may ask you to be very quiet while I am grooming your baby because I am also teaching them what is expected when they are being groomed (this is for many reasons but mainly so they don't get scared- hurt me- hurt themselves). Unless alternate arrangements have been made, all appointments must be in by 10 am. All my prep work and bathes are done in the morning, and finish work is done after lunch. Most short hair breeds will typically be ready to go home before lunch so the shop is quiet for finish work on longer haired breeds. If I do not acknowledge you right away while I am grooming, please be very quiet. When they get excited, I have to start the process all over again which consumes time and energy for both the dog and I. If your dog is acting aggressively or screaming like l am going to hurt it, Please do not speak or make an effort to come to its aid as this will undermine their ability to see that I will not hurt them. If I need you to be of assistance, I will let you know how to help in the most positive way so as to still maintain a learning environment for your dog. I do not like to groom dogs that are tranquilized. Please, do NOT medicate your pet prior to an appointment unless otherwise instructed. This makes them more afraid, and dramatically increases chances of injury to your beloved dog and to myself. I have a waiting room and actually enjoy owners that want to stay and see what I do, but Please be very quiet. (Phones must be on silent. Dogs can hear the vibration and is very distracting to both of us)

I want to thank everyone who has given me the opportunity to get to know you and your dog(s), and for those still unsure please feel free to stop by and just observe the process. It is with love, compassion, and sincerity that I welcome you all. The coffee is usually fresh all day and the treats are free!

Loving a drug addict or an active alcoholic is the hardest thing you will ever do. Watching someone you love, who has fought so hard to beat addiction, throw everything away and sink back into a life that will most likely lead to jail or death, is one of the hardest things you will ever do. All you wanted was to help them back to a clean and sober life but you realize by doing this, as you have before, will now just be enabling them because it will show them that you will always be there to bail them out. You want to grab and shake them and say "What are you doing?!?!" But, at some point you realize that it wouldn't make a difference. So you sit back and watch the tragedy unfold, as if you are watching a movie. Feeling helpless to stop it, feeling like you haven't done enough to help, even though you know only the addict can help themselves. Having to disconnect yourself from them to save yourself from plunging into the abyss with them. It’s one of the hardest things you will ever experience. You love them from afar and keep praying that they will find their way. Battling a drug and/or an alcohol addiction is a beast for the person addicted and the ones who love them. So l am asking you to stand with me in prayer for every family member and friend who has lost or is losing their battle with drugs and alcohol and those who continue to conquer it!

September is National Recovery Month! Put this on your page for one hour if you know someone who has or had an addiction. Many will be hesitant to!!! Some of you won't, but I think I know the ones who will.

Your worth is not determined by someone else's perception but rather by your own unique qualities, experiences, and contributions. Remember that you are a valuable individual deserving of love, respect, and appreciation, regardless of what anyone else thinks or says. So, don't let anyone undermine your self-esteem or make you feel less worthy than you genuinely are. Hold your head high, be confident in yourself, and know that you have a lot to offer the world because no matter how much someone fails to see your true value, it does not decrease your inherent worth.

Apparently someone has found another way to hurt and offend people for No reason. Here is a heads up for everyone. There is a new hack on FB. It includes a hurtful phrase coming from you. It is usually very dirty and appears that you have written it. You will NOT see it, but your friends will. This creates many misunderstandings. So to all of my contacts, if anything shocking, inappropriate, or indecent shows up ,it's not from me. You may wish to copy this to your wall. 😀😀
