Laura Larsen Loves Lemonade!

I sit down with one of my favorites, Laura Larsen, co-owner of Hounds Tooth Grooming in Saint Paul! Laura has been my trusted dog groomer (and on-call nail trimmer!) for years, so it was such a joy to have her in the studio. She recently took the leap into business ownership with two partners, opening Hounds Tooth Grooming, where they offer a more personalized, one-on-one grooming experience designed to keep every dog calm, comfortable, and cared for. They're already booking weeks in advance—and they're absolutely worth the wait. We talk all things dogs, what it's like owning a small business, and Laura's journey to becoming a business owner. We also chat about her hobbies, her wonderfully goofy personality, and her experience as a queer woman entrepreneur creating a welcoming space for both pets and their people. To make things even more entertaining, my one-year-old son, Wilhelm, joined us in the studio, so expect plenty of toddler cameos, laughs, and wonderfully chaotic moments throughout the episode. This conversation is full of heart, humor, and a whole lot of dog love. I hope you enjoy getting to know Laura as much as I have over the years!   About — Houndstooth   Hear more Excelsiorp.com
