TODAY'S CUSTOMER ★MABEL-BOLONKA★

Meet Mabel the Bolonka! Today was the first time I've ever heard of this breed, which is apparently very rare. So I did what I always do when I don't know something...Wikipedia! You can learn more about the Bolonka breed here.

As for Mabel herself, isn't she adorable? She looks like a puppy but she's not - she's almost 2 years old! Mabel is like a tiny, living teddy bear.

Thank you so much for stopping by Venicepets/Marina Dog Grooming. Please come back soon Mabel and her mom!

THANK YOU ROSIE AND HER MOM!

Thank you so much to Rosie and her mom, who have generously donated to the Japanese Red Cross by purchasing one of our fundraiser t-shirts. Truthfully the weather in L.A right now is too warm for Rosie to be wearing a t-shirt during the day, but it's a testament to Rosie's willingness to help those in need. You're a sweetheart Rosie! And she looks adorable!

NEW ARRIVAL! ★TINY CAMO COLLARS★

We've just restocked tiny camo collars for dogs and cats! Each collar is handcrafted in Los Angeles, so each one is carefully sewn to be strong yet lightweight.

The same brand makes all these other different colors as well! There's more available in the shop that aren't pictured as well, in versions for small dogs and cats. Sizes XS and S are available for dogs, and sizes XS, S, and M are available for cats. The cat versions come with a removable bell and safety hardware so your cat can wriggle out of it if they get caught on something.

Stop by the shop and check these out! They're exclusive to Venicepets and can't be found anywhere else :)

ANESTHESIA-FREE TEETH CLEANING REMINDER FOR APRIL




Getting a pet’s teeth cleaned at the vet can be stressful for both pet and owner because pets need to be put under general anesthesia in order for the vet to clean their teeth, and is much more expensive. But not to worry! You can always get anesthesia-free teeth cleaning right here at Venicepets/Marina Dog Grooming! Laurie, our dental hygienist, comes in once a month and performs this service. The pet simply sits in her lap, she talks and praises to reassure them. Most pets love the attention and enjoy seeing her! Your pets will thank you for it. They look and smell so much better after cleaning. Mari's poodles, Mocha and Java, love to get their teeth cleaned. Here they are right after the cleaning, all smiles! Teeth cleaning is available for both dogs and cats.


Just to let everybody know, our next date for anesthesia-free teeth cleaning is Monday, April 25th. Appointment slots are almost all filled up so please contact us ASAP to book an appointment! To make an appointment and to learn more please give us a call at (310) 301-4554 or email us at venicepets@hotmail.com by Isis
