Can we take a moment to appreciate this absolute GEM of a human?! 💜🐾

We've been SO incredibly thankful to have Lauren joining us at SoPo Paws a few times a month to help tackle our ever-growing influx of adorable, four-legged chaos! ✂️🐶

Not only is she helping us keep up with the demand, but she's out here making these babies look SO FREAKING CUTE that we can barely stand it. 😍

And here's the best part…

Lauren is a POODLE GIRL through and through. 🐩👑

Yet somehow, we've managed to throw her straight into our terrier takeover, and she's been absolutely ROCKING it. 😂🐾

Poodles may have her heart, but the terriers have apparently claimed her calendar. 💅

We're so lucky to have such a talented, kind, and genuinely fantastic human sharing her skills with our crew.

Lauren, we adore you, and so do all these ridiculously cute dogs! 💜

🍑✂️ AUSSIE B***Y APPRECIATION POST ✂️🍑

There are few things in life more satisfying than sculpting an Australian Shepherd's butt cheeks to absolute PERFECTION. 🤌

The symmetry. The fluff. The perfectly rounded dump truck. 🍑✨

But the REAL reward?

Watching that freshly sculpted b***y WIGGLE LIKE IT OWES THE PLACE when Mom or Dad walks through the door. 😂💃

Like, SIR. We just spent 20 minutes creating a masterpiece back there, and you're shaking it around like you're auditioning for a music video.

And the best part? YOU STILL LOVE US. 🥹❤️

We touched your butt. We trimmed your cheeks. We violated your personal bubble in the name of ✨aesthetics✨ and you're STILL HAPPY TO SEE US.

10/10. Would sculpt those cheeks again. 🍑🐾

🚨🐾 BREAKING NEWS FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF THINGS WE WISH WE DIDN'T HAVE TO ASK. 🐾🚨

Apparently, asking for proof of rabies vaccination is right up there with asking someone for their social security number, firstborn child, and the password to their Netflix account. 💀🤣

"Can you send us your dog's rabies certificate?"

👁️👄👁️

Suddenly, we've entered a full-blown FBI investigation.

Ma'am. Sir. Bestie. WE JUST GROOM DOGS. ✂️🐕

We're not auditing your parenting skills. We're not investigating your household. We're not secretly building a government database of golden retrievers. 😭

We're just a grooming salon in the beautiful state of Maine, where rabies vaccination documentation is a requirement.

And yet, somehow, this one little question can make two fully functioning adults forget how to adult. 😂

We promise we're not asking because we woke up and chose administrative violence.

WE ASK BECAUSE WE HAVE TO.

We'd much rather be discussing your dog's emotional support cheese, questionable haircut choices, or why Fluffy insists on screaming like a Victorian ghost during nail trims.

So please, send us that rabies certificate. We love your dogs, we love you, and we would LOVE to spend less time playing detective and more time making your pets fabulous. 💅🐩

With love, chaos, and legally required paperwork,

💜 The SoPo Paws Crew

🚨 THE AUDACITY OF YOUTH. 🚨

POV: It’s almost closing time at SoPo Paws. 💀🐾

We've been fighting for our lives all day. Dogs barking. Phones ringing. Clients needing things. Laundry multiplying like it’s BREEDING. Our last remaining brain cell clocked out three hours ago. 🫠

And then…

✨🌈 IN WALKS OUR HIGH SCHOOL EMPLOYEE 🌈✨

Bouncing. Smiling. FULL OF LIFE. Absolutely DISGUSTING amounts of enthusiasm.

“HI GUYYYYYYS!!! 😍🥰”

Ma’am. Respectfully.

WE ARE ONE MINOR INCONVENIENCE AWAY FROM BECOMING A TRUE CRIME DOCUMENTARY. 🔪😂

She's got her whole life ahead of her, unlimited energy, and not a single regret.

Meanwhile, we're running on caffeine, dry shampoo, and the emotional stability of a wet paper towel.

We love her. We really do.

But could you PLEASE enter the building at the same level of emotional exhaustion as the rest of us?! 🤣💀

Welcome to SoPo Paws. Where the dogs aren't the only ones who need a decompression session. 🐾💜

🚨 CHUNKY HAS ENTERED THE BUILDING. EVERYBODY ACT NATURAL. 🚨🐾

Except… don't actually enter his space. He's got a whole VIP situation going on. 💅😂

Chunky is dog reactive, so we've created a special little setup just for him!

🚪 Private entrance? CHECK.
🛋️ Private suite behind a curtain? CHECK.
🍪 Unlimited snackies? OBVIOUSLY.
💅 Personal nail technician named Lacey? DUH.

Chunky has been working SO hard on building his confidence, and his progress with nail trims has been absolutely AMAZING! 🥹💜

What started as a special plan to help him feel safe has turned into Chunky basically owning a private nail salon within our salon.

No other dogs. No unnecessary drama. Just Chunky, Lacey, and a suspicious amount of snacks. 😂

Because at SoPo Paws, we don't expect every dog to fit into the same grooming experience. We make the experience fit the dog. 💜🐾

Humanity over vanity. Always.

🎶 WORKIN’ 9 TO 5… JUST KIDDING, I OWN A BUSINESS. 🤡💀

9 to 5? THAT'S ADORABLE. 😂

As a business owner, my hours are actually 24/7, 365, including holidays, vacations, bathroom breaks, and apparently the FRYEBURG FAIR. 🎡🐄

Nothing says ✨work-life balance✨ quite like taking a day off to enjoy the fair and somehow STILL finding yourself answering texts, solving problems, responding to questions, and conducting business in the most ✨questionable✨ locations imaginable.

🎡 Riding rides? Working.
🍟 Eating fried dough? Working.
🐄 Looking at cows? Working.
🚽 In a bathroom stall? PLEASE HOLD, I'M CHECKING THE SCHEDULE. 💀

At this point, I'm not even sure if I own the business or if the business owns ME. 😂

Dolly Parton said 9 to 5. Nobody warned me about the other 16 hours.

Anyway, BRB. Just trying to enjoy my day off while simultaneously running an entire grooming salon from a fairground. 💅🐾

🚨 SAME OUTFIT, PART TWO: THE AUDACITY CONTINUES. 🚨

You thought yesterday was bad? 💀

New day. Same fabulous Retro Stylist Wear grooming attire. ✨💅

You walk into SoPo Paws thinking, “Surely today will be different. Surely nobody will demand I change my outfit.”

PLOT TWIST. 🎬

THE QUIET ONE. THE ONE WHO NEVER STARTS DRAMA. THE ONE YOU LEAST EXPECTED.

SHE TELLS YOU TO CHANGE. 😭🤣

MA'AM?! NOT YOU TOO?!

Apparently, when everyone has impeccable taste in grooming fashion, there's only room for ONE main character.

At this point, we're not even grooming dogs. We're filming Real Housewives of SoPo Paws: Smock Wars. 🐩💀

Same smocks. Different day. NEW VILLAIN UNLOCKED. 🐆✨

10/07/2026

RetrPOV: Everyone accidentally buys the same smock from the same awesome company. 😂

Cute. Matching. Team bonding. ✨

UNTIL ONE DIVA REALIZES SHE’S NO LONGER UNIQUE.

Suddenly it’s:
“Okay… so which one of you is changing?” 💅

Ma’am. This is a grooming salon, not America’s Next Top Groomer.

Apparently when you all have excellent taste, someone eventually has to establish dominance.

Same smock. Same salon.
But there can only be ONE alpha diva. 🐆✨

May the most dramatic groomer win. 😂

10/06/2026

POV: Your cheetah print level has officially exceeded 100% 🐆💅

At this point, she’s not even an employee anymore. She’s ✨camouflage✨.

Between the cheetah print, the dogs, the hair, the grooming equipment, the chaos, and whatever the hell is happening in the background… we literally cannot find her.

She has simply blended into her natural habitat.

Scientists call it camouflage.
We call it another normal day at SoPo Paws. 😂🐆✂️

If you stare long enough, you might spot Sheyna somewhere in there.

Our “Just a Bath” reel got dangerously close to ONE MILLION VIEWS. 😳😂

And apparently… some of y’all were STRESSED.

The comments had us absolutely dying because somehow people thought we were genuinely out here bathing dogs like that. 💀

Don’t worry — the dogs are clean.
We know how to bathe them.
We promise. 😂

But since the internet had SO many feelings about it, naturally we did the only responsible thing…

WE MADE A FOLLOW-UP.

Because if there’s one thing groomers are going to do, it’s take a joke way too far. 🤣

Welcome to “Just a Bath: Part 2.” 🛁🐶

Please direct all complaints to the comment section. We’ll be reading them for entertainment. 🍿
