Last night at our salon was a true Westie extravaganza! Our senior groomers dedicated the evening to enhancing their skills, mastering new techniques, and analysing various coat textures and lines. We had the pleasure of working with five beautiful West Highland White Terriers, each showcasing different grooming methods: two were clipped, two hand-stripped, and one received a combination of both techniques.

We are immensely grateful to Macarla for her generosity in sharing her extensive knowledge and expertise, guiding us to become even better groomers. Your big heart and dedication mean the world to us, Macarla. This experience has left us feeling well-prepared and excited for our upcoming workshop next month with the world-renowned Westie grooming extraordinaire, Celso Mollo.

A heartfelt thank you to all the pet parents who entrusted us with their beloved companions. We have so much love for this sweet, cheeky breed. 🤍🤍🤍

Perfect little Bear transformation for Bear the Pomeranian! 🧸
It isn’t uncommon for poms to have some hair loss/alopecia, but that doesn’t stop Bear from getting the cutest haircut ever 💕

Yesterday, we shared Daphne the bulldog being a little salty about bath time… well, meet Sasha, the Sphynx kitten. He’s the complete opposite—he HATES getting out of the bath! 😂 I had to wrap him up like a swaddled baby just to stop him from jumping back in. The animals remind me so much of my kids sometimes who grumble about getting in the shower, then grumble when asked to get out! Haha xx

If looks could kill, our bathing room would be a crime scene! Daphne is such a good girl, but she definitely doesn’t have a poker face—her feelings about bath time were crystal clear today! 🫢😂

Introducing our two new services for when your pup needs a quick freshen up! 🌸 🛁✨

Does your dog have that mysterious stinky smell again? 😷 Maybe they rolled in something questionable? 💩 Or perhaps they just need a little refresh between full grooms? 🌸 Our two new services are a perfect (and most budget-friendly) way to get your pup smelling fresh without any fuss!

We’ll give them a gentle, relaxing bath using our signature quality shampoos and conditioner and a light brush out. For our short-hair pooch pals, they can choose to have a towel dry if they wish. For our other pals who need a bit more drying time, a warm blow dry.

Ideal for pups who don’t need a trimming, de-shedding, de-knotting or any fuss ….but definitely need a little help before snuggling on the couch again! 🛋️💖

Prices, information and to book, simply head to our website at uncannyanimals.com.au 💕

This is Theo. No words can articulate how much of a smoochie snuggler he is. We gave him a little make-over today to get rid of that blown fur and tidy up his underside. So now he can get back to his best cuddlin’ and smoochin’ 💘💘💘 Heart melter!

It’s such a privilege to be able to groom siblings! Getting to know each of their personalities is like a little glimpse into what their home life must be like and the dynamics between each of them. Rigby (black) what super chill and very go-with-the-flow, Finnigan (Ginger) was confident and inquisitive, then Marley (Tortoiseshell) was a bit more shy. One thing they definitely have in common though is how much they love each other 😭🥹💕 Look at their tail hug as I was taking their photo! Oh my heart 💘

🌟 Ra was a particularly special dog we had the privilege of grooming. She was a talented actor and thrived in the limelight—smart, skilled, and full of personality (though she did have strong opinions about getting her feet groomed, lol). She built an incredible career in TV and film, and we were lucky to care for her right up until she took her final bow last year.

Her amazing mum, , created the awarded short documentary “Filming Dogs,” which follows Ra and three other dog actors as they audition for a role. The film dives into the fascinating world of canine stardom, questioning whether on-screen fame is for the dogs, their humans, or something else entirely.

And now, on what would have been Ra’s 16th birthday, her mum has made the film free and accessible for everyone to watch. See it here: vimeo.com/779467575

Let me tell you, I sat up in bed this morning and cried my little eyeballs out seeing Ra again. What an incredible legacy.

Thank you, Peta, for sharing this beautiful work and giving us the chance to see our dear mate Ra again. Xx 🌟 🎥 🐶

What a fun day with Lestat changing up his style again and these 3 cuties putting doing a little skate park model shoot! Loving their vibe 💕

✂️Groom by Annie using her MUCH loved . She adores all of them but no scissor compares the extreme curves they have to get all those pom poms and the top of the heart into shape! Thanks Delta 🙌

🎀 Spray up was done by who gave so much height. What’s Dolly Parton’s saying? The higher the hair the closer to God? 😆 So good! Thank you Brooke!

🦸‍♀️Upcycled Balaclavas, rainbow jacket and hand painted poodle jumper by the iconic .tas! Go check out her amazing creative and anti-fast fashion pieces 🙌

We need your input! 💡

As groomers, we often notice a disconnect between groomers and pet parents when it comes to navigating the grooming process.

Every day, it feels like I come across posts in dog groups where pet parents are unsure why their dog needed to be shaved, why their brushing routine wasn’t sufficient, why their dog is behaving differently after grooming, or even what to ask for when visiting a groomer. I suspect some pet parents may hesitate to ask questions out of fear of being seen as complaining or lacking knowledge?

On the flip side, groomers can sometimes struggle to fully understand pet parents’ requests, clearly explain at-home care routines, outline grooming options, or convey how long grooming might take etc.

To help bridge this gap, we’re working on creating informational and educational material that supports pet parents in navigating grooming more confidently while also making the process smoother for groomers.

So, whether you’re a pet parent or a groomer, we’d love to hear from you!

What do you need more help with? Let us know—let’s learn and grow together!

Today, we stand in solidarity with Aboriginal communities, reflecting on the true history of this land and the enduring struggles rooted in colonisation. For many, January 26th is a day of mourning; for others, it is a symbol of survival.

For us, this day is about honouring and amplifying Aboriginal voices and showing gratitude for the land we work and live on — the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and the Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation — and we acknowledge sovereignty was never ceded.

Like the thousands of years of Aboriginal people before us, we vow to respect the sacred land in which we work and the animals that inhabit it.

Now, possibly more than ever, we stand united with Indigenous peoples across the globe.

We have donated to and encourage others to support Aboriginal and Indigenous causes, shop their businesses, show up for their movements, and listen to their stories, knowledge and experiences.

Waffles will be uploading her new hairstyle pics to her Tumblr 🖤🥀⛓ We did a practical style on the body to help with the upkeep but couldn’t resist a little emo haircut in the front. Taking her from the guinea pig crate to the mosh pit!
PS- one of the funniest Guinea pigs I’ve groomed. A girl that knows what she wants and how to boss me around. Love her 😂

In this edition of “Pet Groomer Quirks That Might Raise Eyebrows,” let’s talk about something that’s surprisingly common in our world: removing hair from our eyeballs! 😂 Did you know that after a long day of grooming, we often find ourselves pulling your pet’s hair out of our eyeballs? It’s a unique bonding experience in our salon—we even like to share our “finds” with each other! Check out this one I just pulled out! Isn’t it a doozy? 🤤😂 I just showed Liam and my son and they don’t seem to appreciate it enough so posting for groomers 😂

P.S. This post goes out to my aunty, who has a serious aversion (phobia even?) to hair and always says she could never do my job!
