December is completely booked solid. I do have a few scattered openings in November, but not many, so reach out to claim one. It's the closest to Christmas that you will get. Now booking for January.

"There’s a common misconception that dogs don’t need to be groomed, or only groomed minimally, over the winter months. The (erroneous) belief is that a dog’s winter coat comes in and should be allowed to grow long to protect and warm the dog. In addition, because dogs, like humans, often follow a more sedentary and inside routine in the winter, many people feel that their dogs aren’t getting dirty enough to warrant bathing. But this is simply not true. In fact, in many ways, grooming over the winter months becomes even more important to the health of your dog than at any other time of the year. Long, wet, matted hair easily makes a cold, wet, and infection-susceptible dog.
While it’s true that double-coated breeds and others with thick, long fur are more winter-ready than short-haired dogs, the “blessing” of these thick coats in winter can turn quickly into a curse if the fur isn’t maintained in a healthy condition. Fur that’s matted doesn’t insulate or provide warmth; instead, it provides discomfort, pain, and hot spots. Matting can even lead to infections below the skin, so when considering the effects of letting the grooming go, consider how your dog’s health may in fact suffer as a result. Grooming isn’t just for a beautiful dog (though this is obviously one noticeable effect), it’s also crucial for your dog’s good health."

I know many of you live in Gander, but a lot of people drive in from other towns, as do I. Therefore, I have decided to make all winter appointments (once the snow comes) tentative based on road conditions and potential for bad weather during the day. Starting in January, I will be working a bit of a lighter schedule to ensure that if rescheduling is necessary, there won't be a long wait time for appointments. No grooming appointment is that important to risk your safety. I do hope this winter policy will be well received. Thank you for your patience.
