Thank you all so much for voting us Illinois Times Best of Springfield for the 4th year in a row! I truly appreciate all the love and support everyone has given over the years. This year has been tough between injuries and illness but I'll be coming back stronger for 2027! Just 4 weeks left until my shoulder surgery and I'm trying to get to everyone i can until then 💜

Hey Fur-Ever Friends. I just wanted to update everyone on what's been going on. I know I have been quiet and behind on everything.

A grooming related shoulder injury has forced me to slow way down. Over the past few months, the pain has made grooming and basic life tasks difficult. After xrays, mri's, and multiple dr appts, I have been scheduled for surgery in December.

I am trying to get as many clients taken care of but unfortunately, I will have to make the extremely difficult decision on how many I can physically handle going forward.

This situation has been as much of a struggle mentally for me as it has physically. Having something force me to take a step back and slow down has been super hard on me. I have spent the last 5 years doing as much as I could for each and every client and now my body is telling me I can't. I do not want to let anyone down but I have to listen to my body before grooming is no longer an option for me.

I truly appreciate all the love and support everyone has shown me all these years. I am so sorry that I have to step back like I am and know it absolutely breaks my heart to do so.

I am working on getting in touch with everyone and getting schedules adjusted. I appreciate your understanding while I work through all of this.

As many of you already know, our Animal Protective League took devastating damage during last night's storm 😣 they need all the support we as a community can give right now. I know fellow groomers have closed down for the day to house animals and other rescues are stepping up. Donations can be made directly to apl through the link in the shared post. I can also pick up any donations and ensure they get where they are needed!! We have a huge animal loving community so let's show up and do all we can!

The Animal Protective League is dedicated to caring for ill, injured and abused homeless animals and coordinating the adoption of those animals by responsible pet owners; it further is committed to ending companion animal overpopulation by offering high-quality, low-cost spay/neuter services.

When i started planning this event for Almost Home Rescue, I was trying to come up with something fun to do. I was talking to clients about my idea for a kissing booth and one of them found this cute pop up tent. Originally it was made to be a coffee shop. I knew exactly who to contact to turn this little coffee shop into a kissing booth! My clients, who happen to own Trackside Murals and Porkchopolis Art, received my call for help! They did such an amazing job and I couldn't love it more!

Thank you to everyone who help make these events possible. HAIR OF THE DOG BAR/BERSHOP graciously allows us the perfect spot! Big Jake's Dog Treats are always on board with whatever I can come up with! Treasures for Tails are becoming regulars with us as well! We've had different food vendors and always on the hunt for more! Pain in the Grass, LLC Pooper Scoopers made their first appearance today as well ☺️

My goal is to not only help the rescues and get dogs adopted, but to also shine light on local businesses ✨️ I love seeing us all come together with common goals!

Thank you all so much! If anyone else is interested in joining us for future events, please feel free to reach out!

3 of the 4 dogs available for adoption found their Fur-Ever Homes! A lot of donations for the rescue came in as well!

I'm so thankful for our pet loving community and how we can all come together to help one another!

Until next time Fur-Ever Friends, remember to !
