I have been severely lacking on posting photos!🤦🏼‍♀️ So, please enjoy a photo of Gator for tax. I took advantage of my afternoon cancellation, and put him into a cute all hand-scissored trim. Was I growing out his head for a conti? Yes. Did I have a moment of delirium and chop it off? Also yes.

Gator had his final e-collar lesson last night with some new friends! He is on his way to becoming a certified good boy, now that he’s allowed to have some off leash freedom. Thank you Jill at The Right Paw obedience school for dealing with his antics! 🐊🐾🐩

Hi everyone, an update for you. I was admitted to the hospital for 4 days and have broken free. Unfortunately, no real answers(as expected). I am doing slightly better, and have big hopes of returning to work this Friday or Saturday (fingers crossed). I know several of you are not pleased with having your appointments cancelled, but Sarah is doing the best she can to groom as many dogs as possible working extra days.
With autoimmune issues, you kind of just have to wait until they decide they’re done destroying your body. There are some treatments for what I have, but it’s more so just resting and hoping. I am on a new medication regiment, so hopefully that will start helping soon. I had/have some follow up appointments today and tomorrow, and maybe more will come from that. The stress= flare up = more stress because you own a business cycle is very hard to get a handle on.
I must address that any unpleasant remarks and aggressive repeated texting, will have you swiftly removed from our client list. I have never had to take more than a day off in my entire grooming career, and would love nothing more than to return to work, as it is my livelihood. There is no sick time in this job, so trust me: I need to be at work. If you have such an issue waiting a few extra weeks, please seek a new groomer. If you are having delays getting your text answered, please be mindful that Sarah is conversing with dozens of customers a day while trying to work alone with live animals.
To the majority who have been very kind and understanding, I appreciate you immensely. I never put my health first, and this has become a grave reminder that I must do so. I have to wait until I am functional in order to return, so hopefully that is this Friday or Saturday (fingers crossed again) . We promise to keep everybody updated!

Hello everybody, Libby here. It is no secret by now that I haven’t been at work in a week. I made a short appearance yesterday, and it didn’t last long. In fact it wound me up at the hospital again, where I’m now going to be stuck for several days. Last week my little dog (Noodle) was very sick for 4 days, resulting in several ER visits. Now it’s my time to shine I guess!
I am so sorry to everyone who has had their appointments cancelled. Sarah is doing her very best to get in as many people as she can. She has been tasked with taking care of my dogs, the entire shop, and all of its duties. If you feel the need to go somewhere else for your grooming that was due this week, I would never be offended. We just hope you come back! I am just not sure how soon I can get all of my people back in, since about 50 appointments were cancelled this week.
To be transparent, I have several autoimmune issues acting up right now, and it is a waiting game to see when they subside. I have spent many years managing myself in a functional way, but unfortunately right now everything has come to a head. If you know me, you know that it takes a lot for me to not go to work. I hope you can all understand my sincere apologies for my absence. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I can be back to work Tuesday, but I will need to take it slowly and not work 60 hours a week (like I want to.) Please give us some patience and grace we try to figure all of this out this coming week. Thank you everyone!
