As a fear‑free grooming salon, we meet many dogs who need extra patience, choice, and thoughtful handling. Hollywood is one of those dogs. Nail trims have always been scary for her, and her mom came to us looking for support.

During her first visit, it was clear that previous nail-trim experiences may not have felt safe or comfortable for her, as she showed signs of being overwhelmed as soon as her paws were approached. Her mom was incredibly open to working together, so we built a plan focused on happy visits, offering choice, and trialing anxiety medication with her veterinary team.

After a few short, positive visits, Hollywood began opting into handling. And to our surprise, just as we were wrapping up one of those happy visits, she jumped onto the grooming table herself and allowed us to trim two paws. That moment was entirely her choice. ❤️

We couldn’t be more proud of Hollywood, and we’re deeply grateful for her mom’s dedication and trust in the process.

We can’t help every anxious dog that walks through our doors, but you can trust us to guide you toward the right support, whether that’s fear‑free grooming, cooperative care foundations, or a referral to a qualified trainer or behaviour professional.

Three neighbourhoods. Three stores. One goal, get you excited about shopping local.

Meet the faces behind three of your favourite local pet stores. We are Hello Pets, East Coast Dog, and The Barkside Pet Supplies, and starting this Saturday, September 26, we are teaming up for Neighbourhood Pet Store Day.

Here is how it works. Pick up a passport card at any of our three stores. Make a purchase at each shop and we will mark your card, no minimum required. Once your card is marked at all three shops, you are entered to win one of three prizes, a $500 gift basket, a $250 gift basket, or a $100 gift basket.

We could see each other as competition. Instead we see each other as neighbours who care about the same thing, healthy pets and a strong local community. That is the real difference with shopping local, real people who know your pet's name, not just a transaction.

Entries open September 26 and run through November 30. Winners announced the first week of December.

Come say hi to all three of us this weekend.

See you this weekend!
