 Hello there everyone! I am happy to announce that I've found a place to start business back up in Tualatin, Oregon at a salon called Wild Paw Studio.

I have been settling into my new spot over the past month and have been learning so much on the job. I am very excited to be able to start doing what I love again, in a much smaller capacity. I will continue to use this platform to provide education about how we can all best care for our furry friends.

For now, I wanted to have a footprint saying that change is happening over here!! Until next post, best wishes and puppy kisses Karina
