👮 HANNAH👮

🐾 Please help me welcome Hannah, our newest Pawsitive Vibes family member.
This beautiful girl is a retired police officer who has officially traded in the hard working life for spa days, relaxing walks by the river, and living her very best retirement life. And honestly… she has earned every second of it 💕
Hannah is the sweetest soul with the gentlest eyes and the calmest spirit. You can just feel how special she is the moment she walks through the door. She soaked up every bit of love, attention, and pampering during her spa day like the queen she is.
There’s something so heartwarming about seeing these amazing working dogs settle into retirement surrounded by comfort, love, and peace. Now her days are filled with belly rubs, treats, fresh fluff, and enjoying the slower side of life 🥰
We are so happy to have Hannah join the Pawsitive Vibes family and cannot wait to spoil this sweet girl for many more spa days to come ♥️
Thank you for your service 🐾

ENJOY HER BEFORE AND AFTER

🚬 WISKEY 🚬

🐾 Wiskey was back at Pawsitive Vibes for his spa day and let me tell you… this little Shih Tzu walked in looking like he just finished a 12 hour shift at the steel mill and needed a cigarette break immediately 🤣
I love this lil dog, but why does he always look like he’s been smoking two packs a day since the late 70s?! The squinty eyes… the scruffy little face… the expression of a man who’s seen some things... He looks like he should be sitting at a poker table yelling “I’m too old for this nonsense.”
And somehow… despite all that… he is the SWEETEST boy ever. Wiskey LOVES coming for his spa days. The second I start talking to him he melts into me for snuggles like a tiny grumpy old teddy bear. Then he patiently waits for treats like he’s collecting his retirement check 🤣
Honestly, for a Shih Tzu, his behavior is suspiciously good. No tiny diva meltdown. No dramatic refusal to cooperate. Nothing. Just standing there calmly while giving me the same look your uncle gives after mowing the lawn in white New Balances 🤣
By the end of his groom he was fluffy, fresh, and looking like he was about to go sit outside the local diner at 6am to complain about gas prices 🐾🤣
Love you Wiskey 💙 I wouldn’t change a thing about you!

♥️ PIPER ♥️ & 💜 BELLA 💜

🐾 The GOLDEN GIRLS OF GREEN BLUFF were back at Pawsitive Vibes for their spa day and ohhhhhh did they arrive with stories to tell 🤣
Mom came in with her nose up in the air begging for relief from miss Piper 😆 Apparently Piper decided rolling in a dead carcass of some sort was the perfect way to spend her day 😬🤢. The smell hit before she did 🫢. But no worries!! Straight into the tub she went, and after a full scrub down there was not a single trace of the “deceased perfume collection” left behind 🤣👏

And then there’s Bella…sweet Bella…standing there with her squinty little judgment eyes like I personally offended her by making her beautiful 😆. That girl LOVES her dramatic entrances and exits too. Back and forth slamming the kennel door like she pays rent here 🤣🚪

I swear these girls keep me laughing the entire time they’re here. I absolutely adore them and their big goofy personalities. They truly make my day Golden ♥️ 🐾

🧸 TEDDY 🧸

🐾 Everyone welcome Teddy, the newest member of the Pawsitive Vibes fur family!
Let me tell you…this little guy marched in here like he owned the place 😆. Teddy did AMAZING for his spa day! With a few peanut butter negotiations and treat bribes (don’t judge me 🤣), he made it through like a champ.
This sweet boy absolutely loved his bubble bath, all the cuddles from my Pyper, and of course being told how adorable he is every 5 seconds 😅. But halfway through he decided spa day should also include recess…so we took a little break outside to smell the flowers and explore.
I’m officially obsessed with this little guy already. Sweet, silly, cuddly, and full of personality…he fits right into the Pawsitive Vibes family!
Welcome Teddy! 🐾

⭐️ DALLAS…AKA…DILLY DALLY ⭐️

🐾 Dallas FINALLY got his turn for a spa day at Pawsitive Vibes and BOY was this man overdue 🤣
The second I called him over, he launched himself onto the table without a second thought like, “FINALLY MOM. How long were you planning on letting me suffer looking this rough?!” 🙄
Meanwhile I’m over here apologizing while this spoiled boy is soaking up every second of attention like the king he believes he is 👑

Dallas LOVES being pampered. Tell him he’s handsome? Tail wag.
Tell him he’s the best boy? Tail wag faster.
Tell him I love his handsome b***y? Full body wiggles 🤣🍑

I swear this dog lives for compliments and spa days. He stood there looking at himself afterward like he just walked out of a doggy salon commercial 💅🐶

And because apparently just a spa day wasn’t enough for this handsome boy…after grooming he got his “Dilly Day” 🤣

First stop? McDonald’s for ice cream 🍦
Second stop? A Walmart shopping spree 🛒
Then off to sister’s softball game to show off his fresh haircut and pretend he’s everyone’s emotional support mascot 😂
This boy is living better than most people I know 😆
Love you sweet boy.. sorry you had to wait so long…but you know it was worth it😁

💙 BRUTUS 💙 & ♥️ BISCUITS ♥️

🐾 Back at Pawsitive Vibes for their spa day and apparently…I still don’t know who’s who half the time 🤣
So today I go in thinking, “Alright! I’m tackling Biscuits first this time!” Since she’s usually the more excitable one, I figured we’d just get her rolling and out of the way 😅
I get “Biscuits” up on the table and honestly…she’s doing AMAZING. A little anxious at first, so I start softly singing to her and boom…calm as can be. I’m over here feeling like the dog whisperer 🤣 thinking, “WOW…did we finally turn a trusting corner here??”

Nails? Perfect.
Hanging in the sling without trying to escape? 🙌 .
Calm and patients ? PERFECT.

I’m practically emotional at this point feeling so accomplished with this little muffin 🥹
Then I take her down from the sling, go to do her tummy area annnnnd HOLY CRAP…

That wasn’t Biscuits.
It was Brutus 🤣🤣🤣

For the love of God, sometimes I truly cannot tell these two apart…until I lift a leg 😭😂

Anyway, identity crisis aside, they BOTH did amazing today! They even decided to share a bubble bath together and I managed to get a little dance performance out of my girl Biscuits 💃🐾

These two keep me on my toes every single visit and I wouldn’t have it any other way ❤️💙

💙 BUCK 💙 & ♥️ NOVA ♥️

🐾 Back at Pawsitive Vibes for a MAJOR deshedding day ☁️🤣 And let me tell you… the amount of fur these two left behind was honestly impressive. I’m pretty sure they walked out at least 10 lbs lighter!

One thing I absolutely love about grooming is how much I continue learning about different breeds and their coats. German Shepherds are known for “blowing” their coats seasonally, which means they shed their thick undercoat heavily to prepare for warmer weather. This process helps with air circulation and keeps them more comfortable during the summer months while still maintaining those important outer guard hairs that help protect them from the sun and heat ☀️

That’s why regular deshedding is SO important for breeds like Buck and Nova. Helping remove all that packed undercoat not only reduces the fur tumbleweeds rolling through your house 🤣, but it also helps keep them cooler, healthier, and much more comfortable.

These two sweethearts did absolutely amazing through the whole process. Lots of brushing, fluff flying everywhere, and enough fur to probably build another German Shepherd 😂 But seeing them leave feeling lighter, happier, and more comfortable makes every second worth it 🐾

Great job Buck and Nova… until your next coat explosion

🚨 NEWEST FUR FAMILY MEMBER ALERT 🚨
💙 TRIGGER 💙

🐾 Everyone welcome Trigger to the Pawsitive Vibes crew! And let me tell ya… this little guy may be “jus a baby,” but he already knows how to negotiate for snacks like a professional 🤣
Trigger came in for his very first spa day and with the help of:
✔️ approximately 47 treats
✔️ peanut butter bribery
✔️ a couple backyard “I need a minute” breaks
✔️ and Pyper’s elite level distraction dancing 💃😂

…he made it through like a champ!

This sweet little guy did AMAZING for his first groom. Puppies can be nervous when everything is brand new…the sounds, the brushing, the dryer, the bath, but that’s exactly why I LOVE getting puppies started young here at Pawsitive Vibes. My goal is always to help them learn that grooming isn’t scary… it’s just a weird little spa day where strangers feed you snacks and tell you how cute you are nonstop 🤣
Trigger may have needed a full emotional support team today, but by the end he was feeling pretty proud of himself 🙌

Great job little buddy… you survived the fluffening ✂️🐾
Welcome to the Pawsitive Vibes Family!!

🐾 PAWSITIVE VIBES 🐾

Just a little note from the fur covered chaos over here at Pawsitive Vibes Grooming 🤣

If I haven’t gotten all my adorable fur baby posts up as quickly as I’d like, I promise it’s not because there’s nothing to share… it’s actually because this salon has been BUSY busy! Between working 10+ hour days at least 6 days a week, keeping up with kiddo sports, taking care of family, and trying to keep the mountain of dog hair from becoming its own employee… life has been a little wild around here 😅

So don’t worry… your sweet pups’ stories, spa day pictures, goofy moments, and handsome glow ups are still coming! I’m just a little behind chasing fur tumbleweeds and surviving on coffee and dog kisses ☕🐶

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU all so much for your support, kindness, love, referrals, laughs, and trust with your fur babies. This little salon and my heart are absolutely overflowing. I truly couldn’t do this without all of you ❤️

Now if you’ll excuse me… I have approximately 47 paw prints to clean and a golden doodle glitter explosion waiting for me 🤣
