Ozzy was our second free “Groomer’s Choice” participant! Shorter ears can really up the cute factor in a lot of trims. I think he turned out great 🥰.

(We only have one more space available for this Promo for a new customer)

Our June Promo is underway! The first “Groomer’s Choice” free grooming, where we give away a free haircut but the groomer gets to choose the style.

Chewie here was our first participant. He didn’t have a lot of hair coming in, but a fresh new look still made a huge impact!

The Tibetan Terrier. A rare gem of a dog with a rich history and a stunning coat. While they are shown with a natural coat, this dog gets his face tidied up to make maintenance easier.

From the AKC website:

'Holy Dog of Tibet,'� is an ancient watchdog and companion long associated with Buddhist monasteries. A profusely coated, small-to-medium-sized dog with 'snowshoe'� feet, the TT is affectionate, sensitive, and clever. Bearing a passing resemblance to their smaller cousin, the Lhasa Apso, Tibetan Terriers reside at the lower end of medium-sized breeds, standing about 15 inches at the shoulder and weighing between 20 and 24 pounds. A breed hallmark is the beautiful and profuse double coat, wooly underneath, with a long, fine topcoat. TTs are unique among dogs for their large, flat 'snowshoe'� feet, adapted over centuries to help them negotiate the snowy, mountainous terrain of their homeland.

The Yorkshire Terrier! Tiny but mighty terriers with an abundance of personality.

From the AKC website:

Beneath the dainty, glossy, floor-length coat of a Yorkshire Terrier beats the heart of a feisty, old-time terrier. Yorkies earned their living as ratters in mines and mills long before they became the beribboned lapdogs of Victorian ladies. The Yorkshire Terrier is a compact, toy-size terrier of no more than seven pounds whose crowning glory is a floor-length, silky coat of steel blue and a rich golden tan. Don't let the Yorkie's daintiness fool you. Tenacious, feisty, brave, and sometimes bossy, the Yorkie exhibits all the traits of a true terrier.

While they are shown in full floor length coat, pet dogs can be trimmed in numerous adorable, fun and/or practical trims to suit their owner’s taste and lifestyle.
