That thread between you and your pet never actually broke.

It just runs somewhere you can't see right now. You can still feel it on the ordinary days: a small pull, a tug, a moment where you swear they're right there with you.

That's because you're still connected. Loving them didn't stop when their body did, and neither did the bond you built together.

One day, that thread pulls you back together, and you'll see them again. Until then, hold your end steady. They're already holding theirs.

We understand what it's like to love an older pet and to face what comes with that. If you need support or community, follow us at Love, Baxter 🧡

Molly found herself in a rural pound, and was rescued by another organization. We have been asked to help find her a home. She is a terrier mix that’s 1.5 years old, and weighs 59 pounds. Despite her young age
she remains calm, despite being surrounded by chaos. She tries to solicit attention through gentle nudges. Her tail wags, even though you’d think she has no reason to be happy.

Molly is looking for a foster or foster to adopt home. Foster homes must live within an hour of Blue Springs, MO. Molly needs to be fostered first, so we can make sure she gets all the vetting she needs to be adopted. Fosters need to be able to pick up Friday July 31st between 6 pm and 8 pm. If you are interested in opening up your heart and home to this beautiful soul, please text 816-935-2111.

As groomers, our job isn’t to shame pet parents for the condition of their dog’s skin or coat. Our job is to educate, support, and help create a plan that benefits the dog moving forward.

When a dog comes in matted, overdue for grooming, or dealing with skin and coat issues, it can be difficult not to feel emotional about it. I’ve seen some very severe cases myself. But professionalism means meeting people with kindness, not judgment.

When clients feel embarrassed or criticized, they may avoid returning to the salon and unfortunately, the dog is often the one who suffers most from that decision.

Instead, focus on solutions. Ask questions like, “How can I help?” and offer guidance that fits the family's lifestyle. Say things like, “Let’s find a haircut and maintenance plan that works best for both you and your dog.”

Life happens. Schedules get busy. Financial situations change. Health issues arise. A little grace and understanding can open the door to better care for that dog in the future.

We work for the dogs. Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is educate with compassion, encourage consistency, and help pet parents succeed without making them feel ashamed.
