grooming

A look inside animal grooming, and all the brushing, trimming, cleaning and primping that keeps your pet looking up to snuff.

I took a vacation without my dog and realized that he was my home.
I thought I needed a break from everything. From work. From noise. From people. Even, as hard as it is to admit, from my dog.

Dog Tail Wagging: Not Always Happy
We often look at a wagging tail and assume a dog is happy. It’s the image we’ve all grown up with — a tail swishing from side to side means excitement, friendliness, and love. But the truth is, a wagging tail can also mean fear, stress, uncertainty, or even aggression.

The day I thought I lost him forever.
It started like any normal Tuesday. Milo, my golden retriever, greeted me the way he always did — tail wagging, tongue out, eyes sparkling with the joy of this incomparable dog. I scratched behind his ears, filled his water bowl, and put a few treats in his dish. He ate his food as usual. Nothing seemed wrong.

He wasn’t trained, but he trained my heart.
When I brought Milo home, I thought I knew what I was doing. I had read books. I had watched training videos. I had stocked up on chew toys, training treats, baby gates, and even a whiteboard to track his progress. I was ready to raise a docile, obedient, emotionally balanced dog.

My dog was there when no one else was.
Loneliness doesn’t always come from empty rooms. Sometimes, it creeps in silently, even when you’re surrounded by people. You go about your day, smiling when you need to, replying to messages with emojis and polite phrases — but inside, there’s a pain. A silence that no one else notices.

I Tried to Teach My Dog to Use Zoom
Let me start by saying this: I didn't intend for any of this to happen. I'm not a dress-up-my-dog type or have an Instagram account for them. I am a plain work-from-home person with a hyper Jack Russell terrier named Milo and a lousy, tragic need for online meetings.

The Last Day with My Pet
StarIt’s strange how one day can hold so much meaning, how you can feel a lifetime compressed into a single sunrise and sunset. When I woke up that morning, I already sensed it was different. My pet, who had been growing weaker over the past few weeks, didn’t greet me at the door or wag their tail when I called their name. Instead, they stayed curled up in their favorite spot near the window, soaking in the early morning light as if they knew it would be their last chance to feel it.

I know that pets are adorable and kids love to play with them - but they can have a very negative impact on our children.
As a parent and pet lover, I'm always torn between two truths: Animals are wonderful companions, and yet, they can inadvertently pose a health risk to young children. Like most families, when we brought our adorable kitten, Simba, and later a playful puppy named Leo, into our home, it brought a new kind of joy. The kids were thrilled. They ran, laughed, and cuddled with the pets from morning to night.

From Stray to Star: How My Dog Max Won the World’s Greatest Dog Award
When I first spotted Max, no one was cheering, no flashbulbs, no gold medal around his neck. Just a skinny little dog quivering beside a dumpster in an alleyway off of a sleepy Cheongju street. His fur matted with dirt, his ribcage protruding beneath his skin, and his one paw struggling to drag behind as he stumbled after me home. But in those tired eyes, something indelible—a spark.
