🎄 Christmas Availability 2021
Barkley's fam, due to overwhelming demand, I will have limited spots available over the Christmas break! 🐶
I will be in Perth from 28 December 2021 to 8 January 2022 so I will open up additional grooming appointments. These dates won't be available on my website, so you will need to DM me to secure a date!
In case you missed out on pup getting groomed before Xmas, hurry and get them in before NYE! 😜
Coat Maintenance 🐕
Barkley's fam, enquiries are at an all time high right now, which is great, it means you're keeping your pup's grooming needs front of mind! 🤗
When I have an appointment and it's been a few months between visits, I'm going to be honest with you about your dog's coat condition. Sometimes the best way is to shave it off and start again 😬
I will always try my best, but there is only so much a hydrobath and good brushing can do 🤔
If it's well overdue for your pup's next groom, DM me (no judgement) and we can work out a plan to get you both happy for the warmer weather ahead 🌞
Thursday Throwback 📸🐶
I had the ultimate rap royalty at Barkley's on the weekend - Biggie the #bernesemountaindog vs Snoopy the #spoodle 😂
You couldn't ask for a better customer line up than that! 🎶🎧
Big or small - we wash them all! 💙
(But seriously, if anyone has a dog named Tupac, I want to meet them 😅)
𝘗𝘩𝘰𝘵𝘰 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘵 𝘵𝘰 @𝘩𝘺𝘱𝘦𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘵 🙏
Biggie 👑
Throwback Thursday 📽️ Biggie 🐕
At Barkley's we 💙 ALL Dogs - Big or Small. On Saturday, I met my match! It's not everyday you get to hang out with Biggie 👑 but on Saturday I got to hang out with this gentle giant.
Biggie is a #bernesemountaindog and he got treated to a warm hydrobath wash and deshed. As you can see, our bath can take on the mightiest of dogs (even ones from the Mountains 😅).
If you've been knocked back from other groomers because your pup is too big, never fear, Barkley's will welcome you! 🤗
Humanity over vanity
📣 Humanity over vanity 🐾
I will always put your dog's wellbeing first. Requests to keep length on coat will depend on the condition.
Grooming doesn't just stop once your pup leaves my salon. As owners, we have a responsibility to keep our pups healthy, and that includes brushing them!
Best thing I've seen in a long time:
"You no brushy brushy means I shavey shavey" 😂

#barkleysfam meet Scooby, an energetic #cavoodle pup 🐶
As adorable as he is, Scooby does not like groom time 😳. And I get it, new place, new smells, new hoo-man. I cannot stress enough how important it is to introduce grooming to your puppy as soon as possible so they get desensitised to the brushing, drying clipping, nail trimmer, etc. The more positive experiences your pup has, the less anxious it will be at groom time.
If you have a new puppy and want to introduce groom time slowly, I'm happy to work one on one with you and introduce the different grooming elements slowly until your puppy is ready. DM me if you want to know more!
