2021 National Lockdown

Dog groomers all over the country are left stuck between a rock and a hard place over the new announcement made by Mr Johnson on the 4th January 2021.

The official statement from the government under the category businesses that can remain open is:

‘Animal Rescue Centres, Boarding Facilities and animal groomers (May continue to be used for animal welfare, rather than aesthetic purposes)’

Now this statement, particularly the word ‘welfare’ is very much open to interpretation.

Some may say ‘welfare’ is regular visits to the dog groomer whilst others might say it would be emergency reasons only.

So, my wonderful clients, I am torn.
I would love this all to be over sooner rather than later therefore feel that by closing would support my community and NHS by us all sticking together and staying home. However I understand that in some cases your dog may really need to come visit me.

I’ve decided that the best way to go forward would be to leave it up to you.

If you feel that your dog will be able to miss an appointment and therefore not have an effect to his or hers welfare then please feel free to cancel your appointment.
(Please note that I will always be available to contact for brushing tips and any other queries you may have).

If you feel that missing an appointment will have an effect on your dog’s welfare then I will continue with the appointment with the same current covid practices that I have in place.

So if you have an appointment in the next 6 weeks I ask that you please contact me via direct message and let me know how you would like to proceed.

Thank you for your support.

Please take care and stay safe.

Pet Industry Federation - PIF

Here is the long awaited advice from the governing bodies of the industry.
So i am planning to stay open, but will continue to work with strict measures in place, to protect my customers & myself.

Latest advice has been issued by the Canine & Feline Sector Group on pet businesses operating during the lockdown in England, starting on 5 November. Please find a link to the latest guidance document. http://www.petcare.org.uk/index.php/latest-coronavirus-news
The Pet Industry Federation believes that professional pet grooming is undertaken on ‘welfare’ grounds. Pet grooming doesn’t have to be undertaken only in instances when a coat is matted, in order to be classed as ‘welfare’. Professional pet grooming is important for the general welfare and wellbeing of the dog. However, PIF believes that cosmetic activities such as facials and coat colouring should avoided during this lockdown period.

Hi. Hope you are all well.
I had someone call by to see if i would groom their dog.
Can i just please let you know that i only take dog grooming bookings & i dont take “ walk in’s”.
If you’d like to enquire about dog grooming ,please call or message me & i will be able to answer any questions & chat about your dog & what haircuts you’d be wanting for it.
This then allows me to focus on your enquiry when i have the time. But it also allows me to focus 100% on the dog that im grooming.
Thank you.Nikki 🐶✂️😊

Vets4Pets

It's set to be another hot day across most of the UK. ☀️ Have you heard of the pavement test? 👇
If you can't hold your hand on the hot pavement for longer than five seconds, it is too hot for your dog to walk on. Take your dog for a walk in the early morning and late evening when it is cooler and make sure to pack a water bottle so your dog can drink occasionally. If you are concerned about your pet in the heat, call your vet right away.
