Dear Clients,

If you want to keep your dog in a longer trim, you are going to have to brush their whole entire body, legs, belly, face, etc in order to do that.

My college classes start back next week (1/9) and it shortens my grooming schedule significantly. I will not have time to dematt a long coat. So unfortunately, if you can't keep your dog brushed between appts, then I'll have to take it as short as necessary to get under the matts, even if that means clipped to the skin.

If that's not an option, then you'll have to find another groomer. I hate to be this way but I'm keeping on 70 clients (90 dogs) and getting everyone in is going to be tight. I know there are going to be people who just need more than I can provide at this point... So please don't feel like you are going to hurt my feelings if you need to look elsewhere. I get it. And I'll be closing down salon in about two years any way. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 😭

Online scheduling is open thru May 12th and I will move that date further out once I have next semester's classes scheduled. You can log in on the new page very easily to see your appts. Click "My Bookings" and the system will prompt you for the cell phone number where you receive appt reminders.

I hope you all are having a great start to the new year and I hope to see you soon!

ARE LAUNDRY CHEMICALS AFFECTING YOUR PETS’ SKIN & HEALTH?

If you wash your pet blankets and beds using popular fabric softeners and dryer sheets, that “just washed” fresh smell comes from chemicals called Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) that can negatively impact your pets’ health (coughing, rashy, itchy pets, anyone?).

Dr. Anne Steinmann’s UW-Seattle research team found more than 25 VOCs emitted from dryer vents using these products, including well-known respiratory irritants like Acetone, Formaldehyde, Acetaldehyde, but also Pentane (which causes skin rashes and upset stomach), Ethyl Acetate (on the EPA’s Hazardous Waste list; causes anemia, changes in white blood cells and can damage the liver and kidneys), Benzyl Acetate (can be absorbed through the skin and is linked to pancreas problems) and Alpha-terpineol (causes headaches and nervous system disorders).

Our pets can do without having to breathe in these chemical residues or having to lay on them, so here’s our Forever Dog Tip of the day: replace chemical-laden fabric softeners with a non-toxic DIY option!

Recipe: Mix 6 cups white vinegar with 1 cup baking soda, let it fizz. When the fizz stops, pour mixture into a large glass container with a lid. Use 1 cup per load of laundry.

We highlight all of the of home chemical risks that can negatively impact your dog’s health in the The Forever Dog book, available now for pre-order by clicking here: https://foreverdog.com/about/ -window

PROTECTING YOUR PUP'S HEART HEALTH!🫀

One of our favorite longevity foods we include in The Forever Dog book are pomegranates, particularly for your pup’s heart health.🐶🫀 Cardiac diseases are the second most prevalent cause of death for dogs.💔 Previous studies have highlighted that oxidative stress plays a major role in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease in dogs. And research has shown protecting cells from this oxidative stress can reduce the onset and progression of canine diseases such as heart failure, and cardiomyopathies.

Pomegranates are incredibly rich in polyphenols, containing higher levels than other fruit and three times more than red wine🍷 and green tea🍵. These powerful antioxidants protects cells from oxidative stress and damage. Rapidly absorbed by the body, the antioxidants in pomegranate also protect against cartilage deterioration and joint damage by blocking inflammatory enzymes.

In addition, pomegranates contain molecules called “elligantans,” which gut microbes🦠 convert to urolithin A. Urolithin A has been shown to regenerate defective mitochondria in worms - increasing their life span by more than 45%! Tests with rodents proved similar results, and early clinical trials reveal the same may hold true for humans (and presumably dogs too).

🐶You’d be surprised how many dogs will eat these tart, crunchy little ‘seeds’ mixed in with their food or as a treat. Feed about one teaspoon for every ten pounds of body weight.🥄
