*****UPDATE ON BEAR*****Unfortunately Bear did not make it 🙁

When I saw that Suzanne needed help today, after what she does day in and day out helping soooo many animals in our community, there was absolutely no way I was going to sit back and not do everything I could do to help her, Bear, and Carmen. She never asks for help so to see the 'helper' ask for 'help' I knew it was very serious.

One thing is for sure, there are a lot of fantastic, caring people in this community that stepped up and did whatever they could to help. I have been very blessed to have the most incredible dog loving customers you could ever imagine who also, always, at a moments notice are willing to help in any way that they can. It is more than clear how much Carmen loved Bear. It breaks my heart to think that she wasnt going to be able to have him come back home after being cremated because of a lack of money.

Every single one of us have struggled to just keep our heads above water and there is no shame in that. Sometimes you just need a willing person to lend a helping hand. I have had to ask for help myself before and I vowed that even though I am not rich, I would give back whatever I can. We all have something different that we can offer; from sharing posts to help get the word out about an animal in need, to offering to help transport animals, etc.......sometimes you just got to call in a favor and I did, a HUGE one.

Jeff Palma is a dear friend of mine.......I met Jeff many years ago when he asked if I would be willing to come to his house to trim his rescue dogs nails. She was aggressive, nervous, and she was horribly abused before he rescued her. He saved her life, the least I could do was donate my time to cut her nails right? I reached out to Jeff tonight and asked him for a favor.......Jeff works for a Pet Crematorium and he is also a certified pet grief counselor. I barely got through telling him about everything that went on today before he cut me off mid sentence and said he was all in, 100%, whatever we needed he would do personally to honor Bear.

Trust me when I tell you that he will treat Bear as one of his own until he gets back home to his momma where he belongs.
A sincere thank you to everyone that donated, shared the posts, and for all the prayers being sent to help ease Carmen's overwhelming grief. I appreciate each and every single one of you!

*****UPDATE FOR THOSE FOLLOWING ROSIE:******
Unfortunately, it isn't the news we were all praying for. Rosie is no longer with us 🙁 Thank you to the gentleman that saw our flyers and took the time to call Rosie's family with the devastating news.

Rosie was definitely one of those 'once in a lifetime' kind of dogs. I am so very thankful that her family shared her with mine for many years and that you trusted me to groom her as well. One thing is for sure....she absolutely knew how much she was loved.

I finally did "it" and "it" came today in the mail! I have wanted to have a custom blinged out collar made for Rigatoni since the day I met Deb (the breeder), her beautiful poodle puppies, and decided to bring this big ooof home. I wanted to be sure he was done growing before I pulled the trigger!

Well, Ricky turns 3 in a couple of weeks, and what better gift than a gorgeous collar made specially for my handsome boy! I am absolutely in love!

I guess that's the push I needed confirming that I better get my butt in gear and give him his overdue bath so that I can take him out on the town this weekend! I see new toy shopping in our future! Back into the shop I go!

Most of you will remember Olivia.......the dog that I have been helping from a couple of months ago (there are pics of her in the comments to refresh your memory ;)

While trying to nurse Olivia back to health, Krystal's mom became sick.....very sick.

Please, take a moment to read about Olga, donate if you can, & if you can't PLEASE share this in the hopes that the more people it reaches, the more help will find its way to this family who absolutely deserves it.

This isn’t easy to write, but I’m doing it out of love—for my… Krystal Santiago needs your support for Caring for Mom--Struggling to Stay Afloat, Anything Helps

We have had a tough week in the Capostagno house. Dolce fell very ill out of the blue; thankfully he has turned the corner and is MUCH better today! I recorded a quick video explaining what we think happened......you can never be too careful!

Well, I'm a sucker. Everyone meet Chiko.... Unfortunately Chikos family is not able to take care of him for a while (at the very least), possibly for good.

So, needless to say, he is going to be part of mine and Larry's 'crew' for the time being. He is the sweetest little thing but is definitely a bit lost and confused as to where he belongs at the moment and it is gut wrenching.

We are going to do whatever it takes to help this little guy feel loved and safe because my God he deserves it.

He is roughly a year old and has been moved around way too much. He weighs about 4lbs total, if that, and is obviously in desperate need of a good haircut and a bath.....which of course he will get as soon as he settles in a little.

Welcome to the fam Chiko 💜

I absolutely hate that joann fabrics is closing.....do you know how excited dogs get when they get to the end of their groom and I grab a bandana? I can't describe it! I will NEVER stop buying fabric for this reason alone....they get soooo excited, soooo proud, and I love that moment more than anyone will ever know ❤️
