Love this!
Things another groomer might be afraid to tell you 🩷🐾
• One length difference in your dog’s haircut is probably not going to make them dramatically hotter or colder.🫣
• Your dog may have been difficult today… and that’s okay. Some of my favorite dogs started out as spicy little projects. I’m willing to work through the hard phases because I see the potential.🙌🏻
• Two groomers can do the “same haircut” and it’ll still look different. Grooming is part skill, part art, part dog cooperation level that day 🤷🏻♀️
• Some dogs just click better with certain people — and that doesn’t mean anyone did anything wrong.❣️
• Your dog acts different for us than they do for you.
• Matting happens faster than people think. Especially doodles. Especially after rain. Especially after swimming. Especially after wearing a harness for 3 days straight 😂
• Sometimes the shorter haircut was the kindest option, not the easiest one.
• Puppies are not born knowing how to stand still for sharp objects near their face. Early grooming appointments matter more than a “perfect haircut.” It’s like putting a kid in tball. They have to go to practice first before being shoved into a game. ⚾️
• Senior dogs often need comfort over perfection.🥹
• Your dog does not care if their eyebrows are perfectly symmetrical. Chances are most of the time your dog holds their head crooked the entire time 🤣
• We can usually tell when you brushed your dog right before the appointment 😂
• A “bad” grooming day doesn’t mean your dog is a bad dog. Chances are there were too many distractions going on ☺️
•Your dogs haircut is not the end of the world, I promise there’s way bigger things in this life. The hair will grow back!
• Most groomers genuinely love your pets like tiny chaotic coworkers & they each bring their own personality to the table 💛
