A Clemson pup was featured on UPS Dogs! Titan, we would love to meet you. Come see us for a treat! ❤️

Titan and Tyler in Clemson, SC—also known as Titan Town (don’t bother looking it up, we already renamed it). Titan’s a 3-year-old Boerboel tipping the scales at 200+ pounds of pure joy, drool, and occasional lawn destruction.

He doesn’t walk through Clemson—he stomps through it like a four-legged linebacker with a heart of gold. Mailmen salute him. Squirrels relocate. And if you’ve got snacks, he’s your best friend until further notice.

Titan’s agent and official snack dispenser.

Paw-lease don’t forget!🐾

To keep all our furry friends safe and healthy, we kindly ask that all clients bring updated vaccine records to your next appointment OR text a photo of them to 864-207-3034 before your visit.♥️

This helps us keep tails wagging and noses booping in a clean and protected environment!

Thank you for being part of our pack!

Sassafras (aka Miss Sassy) isn’t one to love ANYONE at the grooming salon. In fact, I would go as far as to say Sassy despises us 😂 But this morning, Sassafras decided Mikayla is the chosen one and jumped right into her lap for a snuggle! Sassy says she knows a good soul when she sees one 🥹

Pickens County Humane Society needs cedar shavings asap!! Please consider having a Walmart/Amazon delivery donation sent so these fur kids can have outdoor time!!

***Outdoor Playtime Suspended***

Our outdoor kennel space for our beloved canines enhances their quality of life. This space allows them to bask in the sunshine, engage in playtime, enjoy larger areas to roam, and socialize with fellow playmates. Outdoor kennel time nurtures their physical well-being but also their emotional and social health, making our furry friends happier and more content.

We are out of Cedar Shavings that we use to help with ground coverage. We cannot utilize our outdoor space until we are able to put new shavings in the kennels or until the ground is dry enough to not create a muddy play space.

Please help donate Cedar Shavings. It takes at least 20 bags to cover all of the outdoor kennels but 40 allows us to refresh it in about 2 weeks.

***Lowes has Cedar Shavings for $12.98
***Tractor Supply has Cedar Shavings for $12.99
