Descripción

In our very first episode of Hair of the Dog, San Antonio groomers Sarah (owner of The Canine Co) and Leigha introduce themselves, their shops, and how an online rant turned into a friendship—and now a podcast. Over a “Goldendoodle” cocktail (champagne, cranberry, pineapple and triple sec), they talk shop hopping, corporate vs. independent grooming, pricing without apologizing, supporting other groomers instead of tearing them down, and why this show is unapologetically “for the dogs.” You’ll hear stories about terriers, doodles that “come in every 12 weeks (you mean six months),” rescues learning to trust again, and training young groomers to set boundaries and value their craft. If you’ve ever picked hair out of your eyelashes after work, argued with a client about AI haircut photos, or dreamed of opening your own shop, this one’s for you. Like and subscribe, send us your grooming‑ish topic ideas, and pour yourself something dog‑themed for next time

Barkaritas, Bites, and Behind the Scenes Chaos

Grab a drink and welcome back to the absolute chaos of Leah and Sarah's world! 🍹 In this unedited, off-the-wall episode of Hair of the Dog, we are completely ditching the script and trading topics for tequila. Whether you are a veteran pet stylist trying to survive a crazy week in the salon, an aspiring shop owner navigating the nightmares of construction and shipping delays, or just a dog lover who appreciates some good old-fashioned kitchen-table bullsh*tting—this one is for you. We are breaking down everything from Sarah's legendary Hill Country Fair "Bakarita" recipe to the cold hard realities of emergency first aid for dog bites. Plus, we dive deep into body mechanics behind the table, why we love (and sometimes hate) grooming chairs, and drop some massive announcements about upcoming legendary guest seminars in San Antonio! 🐾 ⏱️ Timestamps * 00:00 – Welcome to Episode 6: Ditching the script and catching up. * 01:14 – The Official "Bakarita" Recipe: Hill Country Fair Limeade, Corona, and a whole lot of heart. * 04:08 – Salon Ownership Realities: The nightmare of opening a new shop in San Antonio and damaged freight delivery. * 06:15 – Automated Customer Service Rants & Language Barriers. * 08:32 – The Country Accent Breakdown: Iowa, Mississippi, and South Texas identity. * 12:14 – Learning Whiteboard Spanish in the Grooming Salon. * 13:32 – Facing the Deep Stuff: Gastric surgery, extreme weight loss, and rewriting relationships with food. * 17:16 – Ergonomics Behind the Table: Why sitting down to groom will save your body in the long run. * 19:25 – The Mechanics Chair Hack: The best alternative to traditional, uncomfortable saddle stools. * 23:15 – Serious Salon Safety: First aid steps for dog bites and understanding fascia injuries. * 31:20 – Big Announcement: Blake Hernandez is coming to San Antonio this August! * 33:20 – The Awkwardness of Recording Reels vs. Unfiltered Podcast Lifelines. * 36:25 – Outro: San Antonio groomer networking... and planning a very unexpected adult party?!

Hair of the Dog Episode 5 :Nobody Knows What They’re Doing!

Welcome back to another chaotic episode of the Hair of the Dog Podcast! Today, we are catching up after a busy week and breaking down the absolute madness of opening up a brand-new shop. From unexpected construction hurdles (seriously, why is there a giant pile of dirt inside?!) to the ultimate realization that absolutely nobody in the industry actually knows what they’re doing—we are exposing it all. 🥂 To help us survive the construction panic, we’re mixing up today's signature adult beverage: The Summer Shave down! It’s a tropical, summer-inspired blend featuring creamy coconut Dr. Pepper, a splash of amaretto, a hint of caramel, and—of course—our go-to Tito's Vodka. Pull up a chair, grab your favorite drinky-drink, and laugh through the chaos with us!
