After 2 partial strips (rolling the coat) this is the result of the 3rd months groom.

Maintenance is the key to a healthy bold coat.

Credit Cards and credit systems do make paying for things a lot easier.
A long while ago we had to make the call to pass the credit companies surcharge onto you, our customers.
It was 1.9% per tap and 2.2% per invoice or manual transaction.

We have nagged Square and gotten a better deal.

In store sur charges are now 1.29% and invoices 1.91% .
0.6% savings for all instore tap payments!

I hope as many of you as possible were able to make it to a dawn service.

Personally (John) , I find it one of the most spiritual days of the year. One can feel the thanks and bondship from all those people who gave all.

In our efforts to be continually improving our grooming and grooming knowledge.

We recently attended a seminar featuring, Scott Wasserman.

Known in the grooming industry as the Terrier king, his knowledge of most breeds is exceptional. His 30 plus years in the industry and his desire to be the best has led his to be internationally recognised.

If you wish to know more about him, please feel free to research him.

The changes which will be taking place going forward from today. Please read this entire blog.

Handstripping clients will have to book every 4 weeks. This is a totally different service from what we usually do. The outcome will mean your wire coated dog will have a brighter, stronger and layered coat. The service will be much shorter in time, making the service far cheaper.

Handstripped dogs will be washed differently. The lessons taught to us explained the full reasons behind the necessary reasons for the new way. This way we get to support fur and follicle health, giving a much better coat.

If you are still wanting a full strip out once every 10 to 16 weeks, or longer. The prices have increased to equal the effort involved. For example, with Tiny dogs, size 1, now starts at $200. ... This is for this main reason: - We were never taking out as much hair as we thought we should have. This can add up to and hour or more to our times. The reason the fur was being left in was to still maintain the shape of the coat, as per customers requirements. We have now learnt, this process is not benefiting the dog or the coat.

Handstripping is more than just a 'breeder's recommendation'. It is about a look, feel and health to the dogs coat and skin.

All customers will be given a choice to which way they want their dog groomed. There will be 3 choices.
A) be on a 4 week schedule where we will get your dogs coat looking and feeling amazing.
B) continue booking 10 weekly or longer appointments, the charge will be higher than previous, as we will be fully stripping.
C) get your dog clipped and scissored to the desired look you are after. (Cheapest option).

PLEASE TALK TO US BEFORE LOCKING IN A DECISION.
