A New Chapter: Wild Paw Studio 2026

 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. At this studio, there are decades of dog grooming experience between all of the amazing team members. 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. And to catalog my career moving forward. 

I'll be sure to add more context, photos and more to these posts when I free up some time. For now, I wanted to have a footprint saying that change is happening over here!!


Until next post, best wishes and puppy kisses


Karina


Edit: I unfortunately had to pack up my tools and leave the salon in July of 2026. The commute became too much to handle financially. I wish the business the best of luck!

The Decompression Period - Bringing home a new friend!

 Good afternoon and happy Friday! I have another important topic to dive into today. Today I will be discussing decompression with a new dog that you've brought into or want to bring to your life. I will be defining decompression in dogs as well as giving you tips from several sources for how to make your new dog's transition into your life easier.  Decompression is an acclimation period for your new companion. Every dog needs a little time to adjust to their new surroundings. While the average decompression time is about two weeks, every dog is unique and may take a longer or shorter time to decompress into their new home. Be aware that while puppies from a breeder need time to decompress, rescue or shelter dogs who have had a more tumultuous time may take months to fully decompress into their new life. In a blog titled Cuddly, rescuers commonly refer to a process called the rule of threes or the 3-3-3 rule. This process illustrates the decompression process and how it will o...
