🐾 Small Business Spotlight: Fresh Coat Dog Grooming 🐾

We love getting the chance to work with and protect local small businesses — and today we’re excited to spotlight Fresh Coat Dog Grooming!

Oscar, the owner of Fresh Coat, has been grooming dogs for 8 years and was mentored by a local groomer with more than 30 years of experience.

For Oscar, grooming is about a lot more than a haircut. It’s about patience, trust, and making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. ❤️🐶

We’re proud to have Fresh Coat Dog Grooming as one of the local small businesses we insure and even prouder to help shine a little extra light on what Oscar is building.

👉 If your pup could use a fresh coat, check out Fresh Coat Dog Grooming on Facebook!

And if you own a small business yourself, we’d love the opportunity to help protect what you’ve worked hard to build. From local shops and service businesses to contractors and more, State Farm offers small business insurance, and our office can help you find coverage that fits your business.

📞 Give our office a call or send us a message to talk about your business. 605-305-5570

Protect local. Support local. Shop local. ❤️
