🐾CARLY & COOPER are back!🐾 And these siblings are a joy to groom! They are very good kids, and very patient with the groom on their ears, legs, paws and even their nails. We played for while and all they want to do is cuddle. Even Carly. She is usually the most reserved, but not today. Although they were both happy to go home, they seemed to love their visit to the salon today. Bye Carly & Cooper! See you soon. ♥️🫶🏼♥️

Five-year-old Kara is excited about the end of summer, but she is also nervous. Kindergarten is about to begin, and she worries that the other children might not like her because she is different. Then one sunny afternoon, something unexpected splashes into her pool. It is a bright green fro...

It’s tough having a spa day! Luna & Mac snored like a pig while we waited for their dad to pick them up. 😂

🐾Meet LUNA & MAC!🐾
They are full breed Cavalier King Charles Springer Spaniels, and the most loving pups! And those eyes though! This breed is gentle, loving and kind. And this brother/sister duo are SO attached to each other. They cannot be anywhere the other is not - including the bathtub. Mac is VERY attentive to Luna. Luna checks on Mac periodically, but she is always watching and listening for the slightest whimper. We had a great day in the salon for their grooms, and I even got to spend extra time with them after the groom. So we played and played. I love these two pups! They have amazing personalities and extremely loving nature. ♥️🐾🐶🐶🐾♥️

🐾Meet CRIMSON!🐾 Otherwise known as Crimmy! Crimmy is a full breed, wheat colored Scottish Terrier with the best personality! Crimmy loves to play - mostly hide & seek, but the salon isn’t that big, soooooo. Crimmy is a very happy boy. A special thank you to Crimmy’s mom for guiding me on the beard and face. Crimmy likes to keep the face & beard long. His skirt is growing in, so we kept the current length and trimmed his coat. Crimmy was a very happy boy! As you would suspect with the terrier breed, he is super intelligent and full of personality! I will look forward to seeing Crimmy soon. ☺️🐾🐶🐾♥️

🐾FRANKIE & SAWYER are back!🐾 This dynamic duo are brothers in mind & heart. Frankie worries so much about Sawyer that he whines whenever Sawyer is getting bath because he can’t see his brother in the tub. I love it when siblings are protective of each other. Sawyer is just a bumbling ball of pure joy! He loves to play & play! Frankie is very, very sweet and gives kisses the whole groom. I always look forward to these two coming back to the salon. We sure have fun! ♥️🐾🐶🐶🐾

🐾Meet LEVI!🐾 Levi is a standard poodle - tall and lanky. Levi has the sweetest personality! He loves to play and he loves treats. His coloring is mostly black with a peppering of grey spots. He has a really cool coat. This awkward teenager would be a practical joker if he could. He definitely has the personality. Love you, Levi. Come back soon. ♥️🐾🐾🐾🐾♥️

🐾Meet ROCKY!🐾 Rocky is full breed Keeshond. He is a really good boy - full of energy and wants to play all the time. Sometimes groomers need to make a game-time decision about mats on a dog, and Rocky had a groomer who removed mats from what once was his lions mane. While that’s growing back, Rocky came to the salon to get evened out. Once his mane fills in again, he will look like his Keeshond breed should. What a great personality on this young man! He is full of energy and an absolute joy to groom.

🐾Meet FERN & DARBY!🐾 It’s hard to tell this dynamic duo apart. Both have gentle and kind temperaments. Both are sweet and loving. Fern wants to be loved all the time. Darby will accept affection willingly, but can take it or leave it. UNLESS THERE’S TREATS. Then Darby is ON IT! I truly enjoyed taking care of these two sisters. Cairn Terriers are interesting pups. They are super smart, strong silent types, and on-the-job when it comes to guarding the fort. 💪🏼 See you soon, Fern & Darby. What a fun day. ♥️🐾🐶🐶🐾♥️

🐾ROCKY’s back!🐾 Rocky the golden doodle was back in the salon to get spiffy for his Doodle Romp weekend at Lakeview Doodles. What’s a Doodle Romp, you ask? That’s the party planned by his exceptional breeder to reunite the litters with their siblings and other doodles. Rocky is going to get to play with the other kids this weekend - and he is very, Very, VERY excited! I have groomed Rocky since was four months old. Now he’s 13 months old, and what a difference a year makes! Rocky is the perfect pup. In fact, he’s not a pup…he’s a little boy. Rocky Boy, I love you to the moon and back. ♥️🌔✨🌠♥️
