This is the part of my job that simply breaks me

Last week we lost our crazy little Pepper 💔

I have had the honour of grooming this wee boy for 10 years. He had the most devoted, loving family who supported his every need right until
Pep let mum know it was time to say goodbye.

There are quite a few of us who have been shedding tears over this special little man 🩵 and my heart is just shattered for his brilliant family.

Goodbye our little wriggler, I will miss you, and promise to continue to take the best care of your brother Manny 🐾🤍🐾🤍

Morning all!

Due to a couple of reschedules, I have a handful of bath spots left for this Saturday 24th.

These will get snapped up pretty quickly, and will be with me 😊

Don’t hesitate to send me a message if you’ve got a smelly pup or two needing a good scrub 🙊

Have a lovely day and looking forward to hearing from you 😊

30/01/2024

Good afternoon everyone!

I hope you’re all surviving this horrid humidity and wet weather 🥵

As most of you are aware I will be getting ducted aircon in very soon 😁 I’m very happy to announce I have now finalised the quote process and we should be installing in the next 3-4 weeks 🥳🥳

The installers and I have decided, given my roof access point is only a metre from my grooming table 😣 that it’s in the best interest for safety of both dogs and the tradesman that I will need to shut down for two business days, to allow them clear access and free run to complete the job.

I will be finding out those exact dates in the next week, and will endeavour to do this with as little disruption to bookings. But wanted to make you all aware as I may need to shuffle some scheduled appointments.

I do apologise that this will cause a small disruption, and will plan to keep those bookings in the same week for people and work with your availability.

I’m sure everyone will be happy with the outcome, especially those of you that stay with me. That sweating through grooms will soon be a thing of the past and we will have a beautiful cool salon 🥰

As soon as I have dates confirmed I will be letting everyone know immediately. Thank you for your understanding, this has been on the list for a few years, so I’m very excited we now have a plan in place 🐶🐶

Happy 2024 everyone!

I hope everyone has had a restful and safe festive period 🥳🎅🏻🐕💫

I am back on deck tomorrow as planned after some fun adventures and action packed days with my loved ones 🥰

As expected I am very heavily booked the first few weeks catching up. So will have appointments available from the second week of February 😊

Looking forward to another busy year ahead! As always I encourage everyone where possible to book their appointments ahead to avoid delays and disappointment.

As you all know I try my hardest to accommodate as many dogs as possible, but I am only one person.

I’m so grateful to be entering my second decade in my home salon, and can’t thank you all enough for your continued support into my small business 🙌🏻🍾💥🐶

Hello everyone!

What a busy year it has been! My apologies for being so absent on social media. I’ve actually left most facebook groups this year, including community groups as some of you have seen.

As you all know I’m still very much operational and have been working in full swing all year. I can be contacted through the business page, messenger, or my mobile. I just decided to remove myself as much as possible from online, as we all had very successful lives before phones became glued to our hands!

I made a decision this year to close a week earlier, officially today is my last day for the year. So I can, for the first time in 27 years of the work force actually enjoy the week lead up to Christmas with my loved ones.

This means I’ll be back a week earlier than previous years, and will hit the ground running on Monday 8th of January.

I’d like to thank each and everyone of you for your ongoing support to my little home business for another year. It’s now officially been a decade I’ve been seeing some of you! Can you believe it!

I hope everyone has the opportunity to celebrate Christmas, or the holidays with people you love and of course your beautiful pups. Stay safe on the roads, and in this awful hot weather.

And I look forward to seeing you all again in 2024 for another huge year. Merry Christmas from my family to yours 🥰🎅🏻🎄🐶

18/08/2023

Happy Friday everyone!

We will be closed now until Monday 4th of September!

This was a scheduled break, so there will be no interruption to anyone’s schedule as I have touched base with everyone in the lead up to ensure appointments are booked accordingly.

I will be completely uncontactable during the next two week period. Please feel free to leave messages and I will respond to everyone when I get back on the 4/9 😊

Looking forward to hit the ground running on my return, for what will be a very busy spring and summer season.

Take care everyone, looking forward to seeing you all again when I’m back 🩷🐶

Good morning everyone,

It’s been brought to my attention that people are spreading rumours that I’m not longer operating.

That is absolutely NOT the case, I have been grooming as many dogs as ever all year and no intentions of stopping doing what I do best.

I apologise if my social media presence has been non existent for a while. The truth is I’ve taken it pretty hard loosing my big velvet Bear, even with our beautiful Aragon as a distraction.

And really I don’t need to advertise or jump on posts promoting myself for grooming. And that’s thanks to the thousands of dogs near and far that I service. My books being constantly full, my weeks always busy. Because I have the most amazing wonderful client base that keep on their regular schedule and are basically my extended family.

So yes I am still grooming, I am still 100% home based offering the same one on one care that I always have. And have always been able to offer “ cage free” that all the newbie groomers to the area are promoting as all of my beautiful clients know. This is the service that I have always pushed and strived to achieve, which is why my little business has always been so successful. Thanks to each and every one of you 🥰

Good evening everyone!

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful Christmas and new year.

Just letting you all know I am currently still on my annual holidays. I’ve seen messages starting to build up. So I will sit and get back to all of those on Thursday morning so as I don’t have too much of a back log on my return.

I appreciate your understanding and hope you have all had some relaxing time to spend with your pups and loved ones. Thanks Danni 😊

Kelly is one of the most beautiful women I’ve known for many years on both a personal and professional level.

I first met Kelly around 10 years ago at one of many locations where she would do photo shoots for my many foster pups. She has also done the most sensational photos of my personal dogs, memories I cherish more than ever now.

2022 has definitely been one for the records. Henry was such a character and absolute delight for fluffy cuddles and to spend time with.

After suffering such a massive loss only a few months ago with my magnificent Bear, this is a pain I know all too well. For many of us, we spend more time with our dogs than any person. They are our rocks, our family and they take a part of us with them when they leave.

Henry, it was an absolute pleasure to have known you. Kelly my heart completely hurts for you. You are known by so many in the Brisbane area, and the news has rocked so many of us. Sending so much love at this difficult time xx

And just like that, it’s over.

My heart smashed into a million little pieces.

14 years of loving you more than anything else in the world.

From the as***le rescue dog who dragged me along the road on my face while you tried to fight every other dog we met, terrifying little old men with walking sticks and stealing peanut butter sandwiches out of the hands of babies in prams….

To the confident, independent dog who policed Kedron Brook, and protected your friends like no other…took yourself off on countless solo adventures and welcomed every foster dog I brought into your home.

My love for you launched a business that changed my life and introduced me to some of the kindest, most amazing people I’ve ever met.

In the last few years your grey face and slowed down body somehow transformed you into an even more amazing soul. Gentler and wise, using your old dog privilege to demand an endless supply of chin and belly scratches. Your lifelong stubborn streak turning into weird little senior habits that god forbid I ever tried to get you to change.

I love that so many people In my life have a “Henry story” that gets told over and over and still makes us laugh every time.

My world won’t be the same without you to share it with.

I’ll love you forever, darling boy.

Good morning everyone,

My apologies for being quite the last few months, our family has been making some big adjustments and it’s been that crazy time of year.

As announced earlier this year I am no longer taking new clients. Unfortunately moving into next year that position won’t change as my books are extremely full and due to my ongoing family commitments I simply can’t fit any more in.

Moving forward into 2023 I will be requesting that all my regulars continue to lock in on their normal schedule pre booking as most of you are so brilliant at doing anyway ☺️ I will no longer be trying to squeeze in irregular clients, as this is adding too much extra work load and interruptions to my normal schedule.

My family must come first, and I thank you all for being so amazing and understanding of my childrens commitments. I’m striving to achieve the correct work life balance so I can continue to do what I love without being completely overwhelmed.

Thanks so much Danni

Good morning everyone.

I’m currently getting inundated with messages, so I just wanted to give a gentle reminder I have closed my books to any new clients for grooming for the year and I will reassess this position next year.

We have had a death in the family which has hit me pretty hard. At this stage I am still pushing through with all my regulars as I don’t want to let anyone down. I am navigating through those who want appointments as best I can and have been collating a wait list.

I am trying my best to keep up with everyone that I’m committed to. But I am also only human, so please bear with me over the next week or so.

Im sorry for any inconvenience and messages that have been missed. I will be in touch with everyone when possible. Thanks for your understanding Danni

Hi everyone!

Can you believe it’s almost September 😳😳

As all my clients know this time of year starts to get pretty crazy with summer and Christmas which will be here in a blink.

So it’s come to the time like every September that I’ll be closing my books to any brand new clients for grooming. I have had the opportunity to take in a big percentage of dogs this year and it’s been wonderful to work with some new faces.

I will update in the new year as to when I feel I have availability on my books again for new people.

To all of my regulars I look forward to a very busy few months ahead seeing you all 😊

Saturday bath days of course stay open for everyone on the weeks advertised. Thanks Danni 🐾
