My Entry For the Creative Grooming Contest at work! Maltese to Tiger Final!
I ended up dyeing Bo orange and doing a traditional tiger instead of a white tiger. He looks like tigger! The white tiger kept getting confused with a zebra and that’s losing all around. I love my Kellogg’s idea!!!

Westie Extreme Makeover!
I have recently learned that i was doing a cocker cut on my westies, and a bad one at that. After wiping the egg (and dog hair) from my face, i set about to improve my pattern. I was blown away when i took the skirt down a good 2-3 inches from where i was […]
Fixing the Mommy-do: Case #2
Wow! I’ve seen QUITE a few Mommy-do’s in my time, but this one took the cake! You almost have to admire his mom’s persistence though… most pet owners will stop at 4or 5 chops with the scissors, but this lady did the WHOLE DOG, including the legs! I had to do a 4 reverse to […]

Bonzai’s 1st Haircut
Here’s my little girl after a home bath and an all-natural fluff dry… meaning I towelled her off and took her outside in the sunshine, and backbrushed with my green Les Pooch brush, stretched with my cheap greyhound-knockoff comb, and use my awesome, non-smoker’s lung power to achieve Ultimate Home Grooming Fluffed Outness. I am […]
Scottish Terrier Handstrip (a first for both of us!)
This is a Wheaton scottie puppy. The owner wants to maintain the integrity of the coat, and a handstrip it is. Problem: i’ve never done a handstrip. It’s a very exact technique performed by very few groomers and paid for by even fewer pet owners. I’ve known groomers who charged up to $100 an hour […]
I got my puppy!
Meet bonzai! She came home today and it’s a flurry of activity here. I have several sites to post pictures on, but FP is the first to get the exclusive photos!
Lexi the Chow Chow
Isn’t she stunning? I love her. We carefully gave her a ‘pink and white’ french pedicure today and she looked beautiful!
