🌞 Meet Our Mascots: Suniva & Emily Thora 🐾

At Sunshine Dog Grooming, we believe every grooming salon needs a little extra sunshine—and for us, that comes in the form of our two beloved Standard Poodles, Suniva and Emily Thora.

Suniva, our original shop mascot, is full of charm, curiosity, and confidence. As the younger of the two, she’s has still taken on the role of big sister and gentle guide. She loves greeting clients, keeping a watchful eye on the day’s activity, and reminding everyone to smile—even on the busiest grooming days.

Emily Thora, affectionately known as our "wiggle butt snuggle bug," is the heart-melter of the salon. Just a 10 days older than Suniva, Thora brings boundless enthusiasm and a whole lot of cuddles to the Sunshine family. She’s always up for a cozy nap, a training session, or shadowing her big cousin around the shop.

Together, Suniva and Thora aren't just adorable shop dogs—they’re also guardian girls for Poodle Crossing, helping to represent the exceptional temperament and care behind responsible breeding. They are raised with love, trained with intention, and play an important role in both our business and our hearts.

Come say hi the next time you're in—these two are always ready to share some love, a wag, and a whole lot of poodle pride!
