A diary entry from a small dog with big opinions.
Dear Diary,
Today I discovered something magical. Not treats.Not belly rubs.Not squirrels (tragic).
Something even better:
✨ A grooming day that didn’t feel like torture.
Let me tell you everything…
🕗 8:00 AM — The Day Began With Dread
Mom said “bath time.”
Instant panic.
Normally, bath day =❌ slipping ❌ shaking ❌ getting water in my ears ❌ Mom begging me to “stay still” ❌ bathroom floor becoming Niagara Falls
But today… she brought out a new thing.
🕘 8:05 AM — The Mysterious Object Appears
She called it PetHold.
It didn’t look scary.It didn’t look like the groomer’s metal torture table.It looked… soft.Stable.Friendly.
Mom said it was made especially for dogs like me — small, wiggly, easily offended by baths.
(Honestly, true.)
🕙 8:10 AM — First Contact
She placed me on it.
I expected wobbling.NONE.
I expected loud clanking noises.NONE.
I expected to slip like usual.NONE.
Instead, I felt supported — like a tiny king on a tiny throne.
My paws stayed steady. My body relaxed. My anxiety: canceled.
I didn’t have to fight gravity anymore.PetHold did that for me.
🕚 8:20 AM — The Magic Really Started
Mom had BOTH hands free. Not one holding me awkwardly, and one trying to rinse me.
She washed me gently. She didn’t rush. She didn’t spill water everywhere.
For the first time, I didn’t shake like a wet noodle.
And Mom? She literally said:
“This is the easiest bath we’ve ever had.”
That’s a big deal. Mom complains a lot.
🕛 8:30 AM — Blow Dry Without Fear
Diary, listen…
The blow dryer used to be my sworn enemy.Loud. Scary. Too close.
But on PetHold?
I stayed balanced and calm. No slipping. No jumping away. No screaming internally.
Mom dried my fur evenly for the first time in YEARS.
She even brushed me without stopping to catch me mid-escape.
🕧 8:40 AM — Mom Can’t Stop Talking About It
She said things like:
💬 “I can’t believe how much time this saves.”💬 “He’s not stressed at all!”💬 “I’m NEVER grooming him without this again.”💬 “Worth every penny.”
She even took photos of me on it…To send to Grandma.And probably Instagram. Humans do too much.
🕐 9:00 AM — Final Verdict (From a Professional Drama Dog)
PetHold gets:
⭐ 10/10 for stability⭐ 10/10 for comfort⭐ 10/10 for my feet not slipping like Bambi on ice⭐ 10/10 for Mom not panicking for once⭐ 1000/10 for making grooming FAST — like 10 minutes fast
Honestly?
Bath day used to feel like war . Today it felt like a spa.
📣 From My Human (She Insisted I Add This)
“PetHold is the best purchase I’ve ever made for Milo. If your dog hates grooming or won’t stay still, trust me — this changes EVERYTHING. I wish I had bought it sooner.”
— Milo’s Mom, who now actually enjoys bath day
