D-tail your dog

We had a sleepy visitor from Cuddle Cat today!

New cat Smokey needed a good shave to remove all the mats pulling on his skin ❤️‍🩹

He’s not happy about his situation, but hopefully he’ll warm up to us now that he’s not in pain! 🙏

Thank you to D-tail your dog for getting him in so fast. They did a great job. And thank you to Dr. Jodi Markle for sedating him to make the process more comfortable!

P.S. She wasn't done yet in the photo. We just couldn't wait to take a pic!

Are you a multi-dog household? Does the idea of loading up your rowdy bunch give you anxiety? Maybe you only have one dog, but he or she is energetic and the idea of unloading that dog on a busy road terrifies you!

Seriously, ME, TOO!!! The idea of a dog slipping a collar or lead keeps me up at night.

Did You Know...???

D-Tail Your Dog offers "drive-in" service. If you need to unload your dog or dogs in a more secure location, PLEASE give us a call when you're on your way, and we will open up the garage so you can pull right in! We will secure the doors, and your animals can be unloaded in the safety and security of our bays! It's a little unconventional, but IT WORKS! My Bernie Mamas, in particular, LOVE this option! Call us today to schedule your next grooming!

D-Tail Your Dog grooms for local celebrities? Meet Heidi! She is THE MOST POPULAR resident at Pleasant View Assisted Living. Everywhere she goes, EVERYONE always checks in on her, and she checks right back! If you see her in the hallway, she is cetain to say HELLO! When we picked her up today, everyone knew that she was going to get her bath. When she returned, she took a walk around the grounds to show off her new 'do and bandana. Thank you, Heidi, for being a bright light in our community!!!

Guess what day it is?!?!?! It's the first Thursday of the month! That means that D-Tail Your Dog spent their day at NEMO Humane Society giving the pups a nice little spa day! We had a great time and got in some pretty AMAZING snuggles! Pictured you will see Maylie with Clyde, Trinity with Thayer, and Brian with Bonnie. All of these pawsome dogs are available for adoption. Please contact the Humane Society for more information!

Did You Know...?

D-Tail Your Dog offers emergency grooming services. This includes severe matting situations, extreme sanitary needs, skunkings, and toxic contamination (paint, tar, nail polish, slime, play doh, etc.).

This past weekend we had a client contact us whose three sassy girls decided to go on an adventure for over 13 hours! When they returned, these poor girls were covered with cockleburs, stick tights and thorns. Our client did her absolute best to help these girls out, but they were so uncomfortable and too much for one person to handle. We worked it out to where we were able to get these girls into the shop and comfortable. We are here for the animals and are happy to rearrange things to help our clients in their hour of need. Please feel free to reach out, day or night, and we will do our absolute best!

D-Tail Your Dog works with Northeast Missouri Humane Society to make sure that all animals who need love and care in preparation for their furever home get it! We close our shop the first Thursday of every month to visit NEMOHS for baths and grooms for anyone who needs them!

Meet Max! He is a senior dog who is coming available for adoption! He was a little scruffy, but with time, gentleness and patience, our groomers got him all spiffed up!!! Contact NEMOHS for more information on this great little guy!!!

Sneak peek of things to come...

3528 Market Street Hannibal, Missouri

Well, this isn't exactly the way I wanted to do this, but regardless, here we go.

Due to the transmission going out in our mobile grooming unit, we will be unable to provide mobile grooming appointments. If you are scheduled for a mobile appointment, we will still offer pick up and drop off services for your pet. We will contact each client individually to make the arrangements that you prefer. We will be working on getting back on the road, but we do not have a timeline at present due to the cost of repair or potentially replacement of our mobile grooming unit.

That's the bad new... Here's the good news! We've been pretty quiet, but we are opening a grooming shop on July 6th!!! This has been in the works for a while. It just happened to align with the unfortunate timing of a full mechanical failure of the rig. We are located at 3528 Market Street in Hannibal. Join us for our grand opening celebration at 10am July 6th!

With the bad comes the good. God has a plan that none of us understand. We can either fight against it, or we can lean on His infinite wisdom to get us through. Today, we're leaning on Him.

If you are scheduled, your appointment will happen as scheduled. Yesterday's post was regarding appointments that we have had to cancel to this point only. We apologize for the confusion!
