Grooming at Monty’s…
There seems to be some confusion and discussion… are we or aren’t we?
Well that depends if your dog is a special needs client. This means we are accepting post surgical (ACL, TPLO etc) dogs with skin issues (dermatitis, serious allergies etc) senior dogs who would have difficulty standing for the duration of a groom and whom require support.
We are also providing the following grooming services for all other dogs: desheds, washes, nail trims, a**l gland expression and shampoo/hygiene trims (face, feet, bottom is trimmed) Cooper (pictured below) is an example of our shampoo/hygiene service.
Additionally, we have also kept several of our gentle souls who we can train our students with in the future (If your dog is one of these we will send out reminders for your appointments)
We have a list of recommended groomers for those who may be of a need. Please give the centre a call on 97794005.
Have a great day.

Huge appreciation going out to WA Dog Grooming & Clipping Academy!
At Monty's we perform a lot of deshed grooms. We blew up the motor on our deshed blow dryer at the end of last week.
In stepped Kim and her team, and by Friday afternoon our new ChallengAir AirMax dryer and 15L of Furex Progroom products were on their way to Bussleton. By Tuesday morning our new dryer and other products were sitting in reception after the long weekend!
WADGA are always professional and nothing is ever too much trouble. It really takes the stress out of getting our wholesale grooming products delivered.
Wishing WA Dog Grooming & Clipping Academy every success and we can't wait to order more in the future!

Update 2: we’re back!

Update1:
As of 5.00pm Tuesday 6/6 we still haven’t got reliable service so the phone is out and emails aren’t coming through. Apologies for any inconvenience.

Afternoon everyone.
It seems our telephones and internet are having a moment. Please be assured that if your 4 legged family member is staying with us today all is well with them. If we need to contact you I will call you personally.
We are receiving some phone messages so please leave a message if you can. It’s likely we will be returning calls tomorrow.
Thanks Cath and the Monty’s Team

Dear valued clients,

I assure you all that Monty's is NOT for sale.

There will, however, be some changes afoot.

From Sunday 14th May Monty's will no longer offer full grooming services. This means that we will only offer de-sheds, hygiene trims, luxury washes, and nail clipping appointments in the grooming salon.

If you have a wash + trim or de-shed appointment booked there should be no interruption to your bookings. However full grooms including clip offs and styling will cease after Sunday 14th May.

If you are unsure if your existing booking applies, please contact us for clarification. Our email address is
[email protected]

We are providing a list of alternative groomers that we recommend in the area, so feel free to contact us via email.

We'd like to thank all of our grooming clients for your support over the past 4 years.

Stay tuned for the next exciting chapter for Monty's, further development of our rehabilitation services, retail, daycare, puppy creche, and training facilities.

Lots of love from Cath and the team x

In February we were lucky enough to have International animal photographer Pam Langrish visit the Centre. Pam owns KA9 Photography in UK and very kindly offered to take some photos of the beautiful daycare dogs here at Monty's.

After spending 3 days and taking over 10,000 images Pam has generously given the photographs to the owners free of charge. (Owners, if you are sharing Pam's beautiful pictures on social media could you please remember to acknowledge KA9 Photography)

For those of you who don't know who Pam is...
Pam Langrish is proving to be one of the world’s leading dog photographers with her images appearing in all the international calendars as well as magazines and books. Leaving her job as Jilly Cooper’s PA to take up photography, she has demonstrated a real talent for photographing dogs in natural surroundings. Now after 15 years, Pam has built up a library of over 150,000 images and has recently illustrated 3 books.

Apart from being an amazing photographer she is also one the most down to Earth and most loveliest people you could ever wish to meet. Oh, and did I mention she's crazy about dogs!

We'll be posting a selection of Pam's wonderful photos here over the next few weeks. Thank you Pam for capturing that special quality in each dog you photographed. We have some very appreciative owners and staff.

Please visit Pam's website at http://www.ka9photo.co.uk/

Meet Monty

16/04/2001 – 08/06/2015

Our beloved Monty is the namesake and inspiration for establishing our dog health and wellness facility.

A beautiful little grey and white Maltese Sh*tzu, we’re not sure where Monty was born – somewhere in Victoria we believe. We don’t know anything about his parents, but we do know that when he was six weeks old, Monty was in a pet shop somewhere in Perth, WA.

We never had any intentions of purchasing a puppy from a pet store. But when we saw him – wonky legs and all – sitting by himself, we knew we had a to take him home.

Unfortunately, Monty’s health issues were numerous. At a very young age he developed a lameness thanks to those wonky legs. We had moved to Busselton by this time and Monty would eventually go on to have two Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) operations. Back then, there was no hydrotherapy available for canine rehabilitation in the South West.

As a result, it was a long way to Perth for a little fellow who by this time had also recently been diagnosed with Cushing’s disease. It meant we also had to go back and forth to Perth every 4-6 weeks for a professional groomer to attend to his weird curly coat.

Eventually joint soreness and arthritis developed as Monty aged. Medication helped, but again hydrotherapy would have been a welcome addition to his weekly routine. There are many photos of Monty in a laundry bucket being carried across the sand, so he could have a little ‘run’ and play along the beach.

Monty was loyal, funny and highly intelligent. He never growled or snapped at other people or dogs, and certainly never complained about the constant health issues he had over the years. His enthusiasm and attitude towards life left us in awe.

Monty passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family and favourite vet. He will forever be remembered and is always in our hearts.

We’ve heard so many similar stories to Monty’s over the years. We always wished we could have done more, which is where the idea for Monty’s Place began…
