As the temperatures rise, please keep in mind that the concrete and tar can become extremely hot, potentially burning your dog's paws.

We kindly request that you carry your dog to and from the salon if possible. If you need assistance, please feel free to reach out.

Best regards,
The Hairy Hound Team

Bek and Jess have been having some fun with Miss Minerva during the off season of grooming competitions.

We even had a photo shoot with The Leash's Studio. How amazing do they look! If you ever want some glamour photos of your pup we highly recommend them!

⚠️ ATTENTION ⚠️

Today, we experienced not just one, but four instances of dogs not showing up for their scheduled appointments.

This situation is particularly challenging for a small business, especially during this busy season when we could have easily filled those slots multiple times.

The impact extends beyond the loss of over $400 in potential income; it also includes wages we had to pay to our staff while they were left without dogs to groom.

As a reminder, we will be enforcing our No-Show and Late Cancellation Fee. Throughout the year, the fee will be set at $50 per dog per appointment. However, during peak periods, such as Christmas and Easter, or for repeat offenders, the fee will escalate to the full price of the grooming service. Thank you for your understanding.

We are currently experiencing electrical issues. As such, we have no phone or internet at the salon. We hope to have the problem fixed by mid afternoon. Thank you for your understanding.

Bek had some creative fun in the salon this week with Minerva. All colouring is done with dog friendly and safe products designed for this purpose. If you would like some colour, please feel free to have a consult with Bek. Only suitable dogs will be accepted as creative clients.

What a busy week we've had here!

Not only have we been flat out working at the salon, but Jess and Bek took a cheeky road trip to Melbourne over the weekend to compete at Groomfinity. Bek placed third in her class, which is amazing given her two years experience and only competing with Poodles within the last year . Jess made Minerva look amazing. Unfortunately, she missed out on a placing.

Wednesday, Amy and Jess took a quick plane trip back to Melbourne for the day. They participated in a hair and skin seminar to assist with those dogs that suffer from skin issues before being back in the salon today.

Education is something we all take seriously at The Hairy Hound so that we can provide the best and most up-to-date service possible.

An extremely important reminder why your pups need to be up to date with their vaccination and why we insist that all dogs have to be vaccinated when coming into The Hairy Hound!

🦠 PARVOVIRUS 🦠

What a horrible illness for such vulnerable little puppies 😔

Unfortunately, we have seen an increase in confirmed cases. It is very important to keep your puppies isolated until they have completed their full vaccination schedule.

So that means:
- no walks
- no dog parks
- no wandering the front yard lawn
- no play dates
- no visitors that have dogs

How is it spread?
It can be spread by direct contact with an infected dog or indirectly through contaminated faeces in the environment. It can survive in the environment for years. This means you can bring it into your house on your shoes! So even if your dog “never goes out the house”, you can still bring it home to them. This is why vaccinations are so important.

Who is at risks?
Puppies aged 6 weeks to 6 months. Before 6 weeks of age, puppies have some immunity from their mother’s milk, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t still be careful. Unvaccinated adults can also contract the virus.

What are the symptoms?
- lethargy, weakness
- vomiting
- diarrhoea
- blood in faeces
- dehydration
- loss of appetite
- fever

How is it treated?
There is no magic cure for parvovirus. It is mainly supportive care. Severe cases require hospitalisation with intensive nursing, intravenous fluids, anti nausea medication, antibiotics, supplementation, in some cases feeding tubes, blood transfusions and plasma infusions.

Even with intensive nursing, this highly contagious virus can be deadly.

Don’t you just want to wrap your little baby up in bubble wrap? 😢

Amazing weekend for Jessica and Bek at this year's Royal Adelaide Show!

Bek placed 1st in Asian Styling with Coco the Moodle, 1st in Salon Styling with Ollie the Bichoodle, and 1st in Poodles with Poppy the Toy Poodle for her level.

Jess placed 2nd in Terrier with Fin the Scottish Terrier, 1st in Salon Styling with Gucci the Moodle, and 1st, Best in Group, and Best in Show in Gundog with Zorro the English Cocker Spaniel.

I could not be prouder of these girls and the work they have put into their grooming. They are both amazing groomers and a huge asset to The Hairy Hound.

A massive thank you to each of the owners for allowing their babies to be used for the competition and trusting us enough to take them for such a long time, this would not be possible without you.

Clair has been part of our family here at The Hairy Hound for many years. Some may remember her from when she worked with us as a teenager. We ask that you please at least read and share Clair's story as we wouldn't wish her position on anyone, let alone their pup.
