This is not my post but from a grooming page. I think it says it all.❤️❤️

Saw a girl make a post here the other day about how not everyone can be a dog groomer. Loved what she wrote and it insipired me to make one of my own 😊

ETA: thank you all for the kind words! It is shareable on my business page 😊 Paws on Fourth

It’s important to find the right groomer for your dog, because grooming isn’t just about baths and haircuts. It’s so much more.

Dog grooming is treating every dog as a soul — because they are.

Dog grooming is being an advocate for their health. Owners see their dogs every day, and sometimes they miss the subtle changes — a lump under the skin, a shift in weight, a sore spot they’ve been hiding. Groomers notice.

Dog grooming is talking to and reassuring those scared pups as if they were children — because in many ways, they are. They depend on you to be kind, calm, and patient when the world feels big and loud.

Dog grooming is earning trust over time — sometimes months, sometimes years — to help a single dog feel safe in your care. It’s celebrating the little victories: the first time they let you trim their nails without a fuss, or rest their head on your shoulder instead of flinching.

Dog grooming is setting your own emotions aside when you walk into the salon. Dogs are sponges. If you’re stressed, they feel it — and they’ll carry that stress with them on the table.

Dog grooming is going home with an aching back because you bathed a nervous pup on the floor instead of forcing them into a tub they weren’t ready for.

It’s trimming around arthritic joints slowly, gently, because you know it hurts — and you care.

It’s adjusting your comfort to meet theirs — always.

It’s risking a bite because the dog is scared or reactive, and still speaking to them with compassion instead of frustration.

It’s forming bonds with dogs that run deeper than most people realize. They may not live in your home, but they live in your heart.

It’s grieving with their owners when they pass — because they were a part of your world, too.

Dog grooming is dirty, exhausting, physical, emotional, unpredictable — and absolutely beautiful.

It is love in its purest form.

This isn’t just my job.
This is my heart.
This is my life.
This is what I was meant to do. ❤️u ale es

Trying something new on my bigger dogs, nail caps. They are constantly scratching me and my arms look awful. Let's see how long they stay on. 😂😂

I had an emergency groom this evening, Lisa McConnell of Jamie's Journey Home was able to catch this sweet little guy who has been running around for quite a while and he was in such a mess. Poor baby really behaved very well even though he had some raw spots on his body. Here are a few pictures. I'm almost positive he's a Lhasa Apso.
