My new friend Charlie had a very fun and busy summer, and it shows!! With the help from Special One, I got her coat moisturized, back to a bright shade of white, and all that dead coat removed with ease, and there was a TON of dead coat packed in there. These transformations make my heart so happy, especially when I know the pup is leaving feeling their best!! 🥰

To book an appointment and get your pup their own personalized Italian Special One treatment, text me (Dawn) 403-390-2251. I do have a few openings next week 👍 Steph also has some openings next week, her number is 403-512-2926!

The Special One product line is bought exclusively at Custom Pet Boutique. 💜

Many people have been hearing me mention the new Italian product line, Special One. The product line is different then any other line, it is made up of many different products such as a pre shampoo oil treatment, clay shampoo, hydrating mask, supplements, oils, hydrating foam, and a final rinse. My friend Charlie came in with extremly flaky skin, a dry coat, and some skin issues. His coat and skin looked and felt incredible after his personalized Special One treatment.

To book your pup in for their own personalized treatment, send me a text at 403-390-2251. All products can be found at Custom Pet Boutique

Last weekend I attended Mastergroom Canada and it was a blast! I took a few seminars, watched some incredibly talented groomers compete, and did some shopping 😜. I’m always anxious to learn from such amazing groomers 🫶

We just wanted to give everyone a quick update. We have moved the shop to our temporary location in McKenzie Towne. We will need some time to set up the space, and to get a new calendar going. We do have lists going to keep track of all our clients who would like appointments in June and July, feel free to reach out to get added to our lists.

We really appreciate everyone’s patience as we get everything sorted and organized. We are working as quickly as we can to make sure everyone gets their summer grooms!

Send us a text to get added to our lists, or if you have any questions. We love and appreciate you all 🙏💜

It is with a mix of emotions; sadness, fear and hope that we share this post.

Due to circumstances beyond our control - we are announcing that we are relocating our grooming business effect of June 1. We will be in a temporary location, then we anticipate sharing a more permanent location over the summer months.

This means that we will continue to groom
and we invite all of our current clients and future referrals to join us.

We recognize there are likely questions and we ask for your understanding that there are many we can not answer.

What remains our focus is grooming to the best of our abilities and maintaining our current relationships with two footed and four legged creatures alike.

We thank you for your support and please feel free to text us with your booking requests or questions. We will be working extra days this month to ensure we get as many pups groomed as we can.

With this glorious weather, comes some sloppy hairy pups!! Our double coated friends are starting to blow their winter coats, let us help you get rid of that coat! We do have appointments as early as next week.

Many pups are coming in with extremly dry skin, which is very normal for our area and time of year. Just a reminder, we have some superb products to help combat that annoying itch!

We also wanted to inform everyone that we use incredible products from Belgium, that are purchased through a small family run business right here in Calgary, Custom Pet Boutique. We are firm believers in offering our friends the best products possible. The results speak for themselves 🫶

To book your pups in, please send us a text or a message on here! We are accepting new clients of all sizes 💜

We will be continuing to collect for Parachutes for Pets this week. If anyone has anything to donate, the pups down there would be extremely grateful. 🙏

Just a reminder that we do collect donations for Parachutes for Pets. Any help is appreciated!

We have answered the call from our friends in for supplies and financial aid to assist with the devastation in California. Like us in times of crisis, they offer supplies to those displaced and safekeeping for those not able to be with their pets right now.

Many pets are seriously injured and in ICU through . We understand the position, the fear, and the overwhelming tasks ahead of them.

We are hoping to send a truck full of supplies down in the next 48 hours and collecting financial aid to support vet care bills. Melissa is on standby to travel down and assist in any way possible.

Many see the celebrities with their houses burned and wonder why they need help. I can assure you that the everyday citizens are in need and need us right now.

If you can support, we need litter, litter boxes, crates, harnesses, and collars/leashes. They can be dropped off at any of the drop-off locations on our website, or 6120 1a St SW.

If you would like to donate to the vet care funding for injured pets in California, please do so here:

https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/parachutes-for-pets/campaign/california-wildfire-relief/

We have spoken with the appropriate agencies, and government organizations and have permission to send these items due to the nature of the circumstances.

My buddy Oliver came in for a bath and blow out, in preparation for his holiday shenanigans! This boy has a TON of coat, and it got even more full after his neuter. He left looking very majestic, and feeling much lighter I’m sure!

We still have a few appointments left before Santa arrives! Please note we will be closed from Dec 24th to Jan 7th.

Shoot us a text to get booked in!
