SHAVE - Dog Grooming & Boutique

They don’t teach you loss in grooming school. They teach you how to care for a dog’s coat, but never how to say goodbye to one who has become part of your heart.

This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to write.

Sweet Daisy White, you touched my heart and soul, and I wish more than anything that I didn’t have to find the words to say goodbye. 🤍🌼

Being a groomer means being trusted with someone’s whole world. Over time, those appointments become a relationship. You learn the little expressions, build trust, and find yourself loving a dog whose family has been kind enough to share her with you.

Daisy, caring for you was such a privilege. You became part of my life, and the love I have for you reaches far beyond my grooming table.

Looking through these pictures, I’m smiling through tears. That beautiful face. Those wonderfully silly wigs. The moments with your family and your four-legged friend, and the adventures by the ocean. There is so much life and love in these photographs, and that is how I want to remember you.

As much as my heart hurts, I want to celebrate the happiness you brought into this world. Your life mattered. The joy you gave mattered. And the love you leave behind will live on in all of us who were lucky enough to know you.

To Rod and Collette: thank you for trusting me with your precious girl and allowing me to be part of her life. My heart is with you. I know my goodbye is only a small part of the enormous loss you are feeling. Please know that she was deeply loved by me, Rob and Jetty. She will always be remembered.

Daisy, I would gladly choose to know and love you all over again, even knowing how much this goodbye would hurt.

Rest peacefully, beautiful girl. Thank you for the smiles, the trust, and the memories I will hold close for the rest of my life.

Forever loved. Forever missed. My sweet Daisy White. 🤍🐾🌈

A gift of HOPE!

This year for my husband I wanted to give him the gift of HOPE! Hope that one day a cure is found for him and all those who are battling this disease.

If you would like to support
“TEAM ROB” you can click on the secure link located in my profile

You can also join us that day at Jones Beach Field 5 at 9am and cheer us and many others as we walk in honor of those battling this disease and in memory of those who we have lost.

I am joining others in the fight to end brain tumors—a cause that is deeply personal to me.

Just over three years ago, as many of you know, my husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Since that day, our lives have changed forever. While we’ve faced many challenges along the way, we’ve also witnessed incredible strength, hope, and support from so many of you.

Now it’s our turn to give back.

On September 20, 2026, Rob and I will be walking together at Jones Beach in the National Brain Tumor Society’s New York Brain Tumor Walk as “TEAM ROB” and we would be honored to have you join us.

There are two meaningful ways you can help:

🩶 Walk alongside us as a member of TEAM ROB or come down and cheer us on

The National Brain Tumor Society is dedicated to defeating brain tumors and improving the lives of patients and their families. They invest in groundbreaking research, advocate for better treatments, and provide critical resources and support for those impacted by this disease.

Thank you for supporting Rob, our family, and everyone affected by brain tumors. Every donation, every walker, and every share brings us one step closer to a future without brain tumors.

You can find the link to “TEAM ROB” in my bio simply tap on the link and it will bring you directly to the NATIONAL BRAIN TUMOR SOCIETY and the “TEAM ROB” page

Thank you all in advance for your support and generosity 🩶



Together, let’s make a difference. 🩶
