Hello all! I hope you are staying warm and healthy. I just want to share this, the anatomy of a dog’s nail. Nail health in dogs is really important to stay on top of. And thanks to covid 19, it has made keeping regular scheduled grooming appointments hard to keep. I’ve had to close twice, once due to the Governor’s mandate (6wks) and once due to being in quarantine (4wks). The majority of my clients are on a 4-8 wk schedule, and due to quarantine I didn’t see some of them for 10-12 wks. During this time period nails were not being taken care of like they normally would have, and I have run into some issues with clients thinking their dog’s nails should be shorter. So I’m going to share this picture so everyone can see why the longer the nail is, the longer it takes to get it short again. Making your dog’s nail bleed is extremely painful for them, so you want to do your best to not make them bleed. We wouldn’t let our fingernails and toenails go untouched for 10-12 wks, so we shouldn’t let our dogs go that long either. I hope this bit of information helps you understand why the groomer didn’t get the nails as short as you thought they should be. Stay warm and healthy and have a wonderful day.

Hello everyone! The Governor is allowing grooming services to open back up starting May 1st. To all of you that had a grooming appointment from 3/24/20-4/30/20, I will be contacting you next week with your appointment. Please be patient with me, I have 6 weeks of appointments that need to be rescheduled in the order they were scheduled before the shut down, and I will do my best to comply with everyone’s needs. There will be some changes on how we will interact with each other, I will let you know about these changes when I contact you with your new appointment. I’m so excited to be back to work and being able to see all of you and your pupsters.

Please watch this, this explains that your pet can carry the virus if they come in contact with it. This is why grooming, doggie day care and taking on any new boarding clients should not be happening and canceled. Please heed the “Stay at home” order and keep your pets home too.

Dr. Emily Landon is the chief infectious disease epidemiologist at the University of Chicago Medicine, who moments after Pritzker issued the ordinance to take effect Saturday evening, took to the stand with a 7-minute-long speech that went viral after striking a chord for many individuals.

This is from a master groomer from Northern Illinois.

I hope this sheds some light on why non essential businesses, like me, are closed.

Update: The “Stay at Home” order has been continued until the end of April. I will be contacting all of you who had appointments scheduled from 3/24/20-4/30/20 as soon as I can and get you all rescheduled. Please stay safe and healthy.

Your Pampered Pet will be temporarily closed due to our Governor’s “ Stay at Home” order. I apologize for the inconvenience at this time, but I want to keep everyone healthy, your family and mine. I will be in contact with you all at a later time in regards to rescheduling as soon as I have a better understanding of the situation and timeline. Thank you for understanding and take care and stay healthy.
