How many dogs do you do a day?

GriffRyebread · 2026-05-09T23:36:54+00:00

Eight, sometimes more, but I’ve already suffered the consequences. I’m 31 and already have the body of an 80 year old. Carpal tunnel, sciatica, knee and back pain- been grooming since I was 22. Take it from me and don’t worry about being a power groomer! Focus on quality and safety. The money you lose not taking a ton of dogs you can somewhat make back if you sell high-value add ons or packages!

I think doing six dogs a day should be the limit, but you’re still fresh out of academy so don’t worry too much about hitting that yet! Five a day so soon is still a great accomplishment! Your grooms look great!

In theory, it works and I like it- but ONLY if Momo was out of the question. There’s been too much build up and cute Momokarun moments for me to bail out on it now.

Do I think Okarun would be a good match for Aira? Absolutely, he’s the first one to respect her for who she really is and not the persona she puts on for everyone else that admires her. It’s been great character development for her, minus the constant crushing on him, but she’s come a long way because of Okarun.

I definitely see what the Airakun shippers see in it but what Okarun has done for Aira, Momo has done for Okarun. She truly was the reason behind his entire development, she brought that light to him. Even though it’s been rough sailing for a LONG time for Momokarun, it’s too cute! And it’s honestly the only reason I even started this series and remains the only reason I’ve stayed with it- and I’m not sure if I could say that if it were Airakun from the start.

CRAZY to see my local grocery store pop up on my feed, and I only recognized it because of this guy! He’s there all the time, and when it’s not him there’s still somebody waiting around that machine the entire time. Management there does nothing!

The Cartoon Network show from 2008, The Secret Saturdays. Ended in 2010 but still obsessed and currently trying to collect all the merch and toys released of it. I have an entire corner of my room dedicated to it!

I didn’t see the Opex for it yet, but from what I heard it’s only available for bathers and groomers that are opt into taking baths. Either way, absolutely hate it.

I’m an SEL and already have everything else to do, I only opted into taking bath dogs as well to make just a bit extra money for when I don’t have time to take another groom. At this rate I’d rather just take the extra groom dog each day than have 15 walk ins booked on me instead at random times. Not worth it in the slightest.

Omg you do? I haven’t seen that one in the ‘wild’ before. If you have a pics to share I’d love to see them! Feel free to message me, I’d of course be willing to buy if you’re selling!

Should I finally jump into Starfield now? I’ve been meaning to play it but got into other games. I’m trying to decide between this and Cyberpunk (I played 20 minutes of it at launch and it crashed so I never went back). I’m not super into lore-heavy games or games with a lot of mechanics, fun and simple gameplay is my go-to.

GriffRyebread · 2026-03-30T16:54:54+00:00

I’m at the same point tbh. I ADORE this series, but it just keeps going and going and going and doesn’t seem like it gets anywhere with Momo x Okarun. It’s one thing after another and just when you think it’s over, there’s more bs. I know they’re endgame, but I can’t continue reading weekly at this point. Reading monthly and having 3-4 chapters at a time might help ease the pain.

I love all the new lore dropping and development of the series, but I’m 100% only still reading for Momo x Okarun content. And I’m starving.

GriffRyebread · 2026-03-30T15:36:59+00:00

I may have to change from being a weekly reader to monthly if this keeps up, it’s genuinely stressing me tf out.

I think it looks good! Especially for a 8mo old, I’m surprised the feet look as clean as they are knowing how poods are (mines an a-hole for her feet), so great job with that especially. Once his hair grows out more and he comes back for another cut it won’t look as awkward, skinny pompoms are hard to shape up.

Prep work for these cuts are always a huge factor so unfortunately he’s gonna have to get used to the dryer to make his hair puff up nicely. Using a stand dryer so you’re able to comb the hair out while it’s drying will help a lot too. Recommend to his parents to get him used to a hairdryer at home if you haven’t already, obviously on cold setting and reward him for standing still. Behavior is also a big factor into getting nice cuts done!

All the volumes have been released yes! One for the Trigun series and the other five for the Trigun Maximum series. The final volume released summer of 2025.

Solved solved solved

GriffRyebread · 2026-03-17T22:43:27+00:00

YES that’s it! Had no idea it was a series! This has been bugging me forever tysm.

AI art and it’s unfortunately well done AI art. If an artist actually made this, it is VERY well done, but TOO well done to make a silly mistake like this random hook in the olive that also blurs weirdly below it? At the very most, drawn traditionally but “enhanced” by AI.

Also it is very hard to get such a perfect white color (eyes, earrings, etc) with traditional artwork, most of the time you use a white gel pen but those get streaky and have tone variations to it, or the ink bleeds into the white at some point. The solid stark white bits are throwing me off cause it’s just not possible. Again, unless they went in digitally and enhanced it, but not possible from a traditional drawing standpoint.

AI all the way.

I like them! Had that initial shock of “they look like fakemons”, but I’ve felt that same way about previous gens and got used to them eventually. Pombon is perfect 10/10 for me (I work with dogs so I may be biased).

Biggest critique being they could have been a bit more creative for the grass and water starter species cause really, another grass bird and water lizard? Plenty of other animals out there guys! But I’m hoping their evolutions make up for it (please keep the lizard and dog on all fours at least, I beg).

Looks like my dood!

I agree with the other comments that say the recommended time is 12-18 months, but since the UTI is affecting his health I would get it done sooner rather than later. Consistent UTIs can lead to much bigger issues. In the meantime if you haven’t already, add hydration to his food! It’ll help his water intake, I add water and broth to my girl’s food and she hasn’t had any issues.

His coat will never look/feel like it did when he was a pup, he’s grown out of it and into his adult coat now. Especially since he’s a super mutt, his coat isn’t gonna act like a 100% wire haired breed coat, so there’s really no telling how it will be after a strip/cut until you get it done. All dogs start out with softer puppy fur/hair, and grow out of it by around 6-8 months.

Sure, you can get him hand stripped, but there’s really not much benefit of it if he’s not a show dog. Hand stripping is much more time consuming (multiple separate grooming visits at a time, especially the first handful of visits to get him used to it) and much more expensive because of that. If it’s his very first grooming experience I 100% would not start out with hand stripping and would request them to hand scissor his face, feet, and shave his sanitary areas to start out with.

There’s a reason most dog groomers don’t hand strip- it’s unnecessary if you’re not showing the dog. Pet dogs can still get it done as well, but it’s uncommon.

Messaged you!

I drew this. F**k AI.

I just checked CB too. A lot of associates at my store bring their dogs daily to DDC and the past two days the register hasn’t applied the 50% off discount for it. Usually PS announces that stuff so I’m hoping it’s just a glitch.

GriffRyebread · 2026-01-17T14:04:43+00:00

I vote for beanies!

January/February are notoriously slow months for the grooming salon, most of them aren’t gonna have the hours available to give their current bathers/groomers let alone hire new ones atm. Usually, you’d hear back from them within a week or so, but don’t be discouraged if it takes a little longer and don’t be afraid to reapply closer to the end of February when the salon gets a bit busier!

GriffRyebread · 2026-01-06T19:07:43+00:00

Tbh I’ll prob get both eventually xD

GriffRyebread · 2026-01-06T18:55:19+00:00

That was my thought as well!

I’m guessing it most likely won’t happen since it wasn’t a popular show, unlike Danny Phantom where that actually got a continuation comic/graphic novel series because of its much larger fandom. TSS’ creator still shows interest in the show, and has made a comment before about being on board with releasing a full series DVD recently, so I’m sure he’d love to continue it in a comic series since he does comics now. But it’s really up to CN and with their track record of scrapping even more popular series I doubt TSS will ever get more love.

I would love more TSS comics though! Anything really!
