What a joke, posting a nice beach picture in a rainy July day! Where is summer?!
These are the very last slots I have for the summer, please message me if you would like to book in.
Iβm not accepting new customers for the moment, but come September there may be spaces for a couple of newbies π€

More sad news to report Iβm afraid π’ lovely Toby has also crossed Rainbow Bridge this week. I have been grooming Toby since 2018 and heβs always been a quiet, distinguished gentleman, a no fuss, no nonsense little man. I know his little brother will miss him immensely, as will his family. Sleep tight Toby π
Sad news. Lovely long term Shampoocher Olly has crossed Rainbow Bridge. He was always such a smiley happy boy and a pleasure to groom. Thinking of his family tonight π
βοΈ Appointments coming up soon βοΈ
Iβve had a few slots become available soon, if anyone is a sporadic booker and fancies a relatively short notice summer groom.
No new customers - sorry π
All cleared up and ready for a fresh jetwash! Keeping the garden clean and clear is always on my mind (not always easy with kids and dogs!) but now is definitely the time for a spring clean πΊ
Happy 8th birthday Molly! Our beautiful little dog who was the original inspiration for Shampooches and continues to be the cover girl! We love you Molly dog π₯°π₯°
Hello everyone π
CHANGE OF POLICY REGARDING PAYMENT VIA BANK TRANSFER
Unfortunately recently, I have had a few issues with having to ask for payment a few days after collection.
I work very much on a trust basis and very rarely have an issue, I totally understand itβs very easy to forget these things, and reminders are always met with apology and immediate payment.
However, I hate having to ask, so going forward, when paying by bank transfer, I will require payment to be made BEFORE collection please. Cash is also still accepted.
Many thanks for your cooperation and understanding π
Please note, I am now booking in appointments from the second week of May. Please bear that in mind if you need to reschedule, my diary gets booked up quickly and well in advance.
Summer is a busy time with the school holidays etc, so if you need an appointment, please message me. Iβm still not taking any new dogs on, sorry to everyone who has enquired.
Thank you for keeping me so busy βΊοΈ
Iβve said it before and Iβll say it again, my customers are just the best (and Iβm not talking about the doggies this time) π€ π
π RE-BOOKING π
Hi everyone, hope youβre all well and willing the spring season to arrive as much as I am πΌ
βοΈ
Just a quick note about rebooking - please ensure your next appointment is booked and confirmed in plenty of time. As you know, my diary gets full at least 6-7 weeks in advance and I really want to be able to continue to give you all the specific days and times you need.
βοΈ
A lot of you know I have a lot going on at the moment so in the nicest way, please donβt expect me to automatically rebook you (even if I say I will - sorry π) Please always ensure you have your next appointment in the diary.
βοΈ
As always, please text me if youβre not sure you have another date booked, or you canβt remember the date/time. Iβm always happy to check it out for you.
βοΈ
See you all and your doggies soon!

The first of 2024 π
As 2023 comes to a close, I would like to wish all of my customers and dogs a very wonderful Christmas π
Itβs no secret that the back end of this year has been very difficult, and I have had to cancel and move dogs a lot more than I would ever usually do. All of my affected customers without exception have been so kind and so understanding, so for that I thank you.
Thank you for your ongoing custom and trust in me, I will continue to do my best for you and your dogs. I am forever grateful that I have been able to build a successful business but I couldnβt do it without your support. Thank you from the bottom of my heart β€οΈ
Merry Christmas and see you in 2024 π

Happy 6th birthday Shampooches π
I must admit this birthday went unnoticed this year, with so much else going on it slipped my mind.
We have to celebrate though as it is one of my biggest achievements, and it is so very largely down to Dad who was totally invested in its making from the start.
Thanks Dad π» for building my salon, offering endless self employed advice and believing in me. 6 years and still thriving, canβt be bad eh?! β€οΈ
It is with the most overwhelming heartbreak to inform you that my wonderful Dad passed away peacefully this morning.
Dad was always my champion and the one who encouraged me to chase my dreams. He was always behind me and helped me βmake it happenβ, whatever βitβ was.
I have had to cancel all work this week as we have been with him at the hospital solidly, thank you to all of my lovely understanding clients who have been affected. I will be in touch with all future bookings and hope Iβm able to carry out December as planned.
Iβm not sure how life will look without him, but it will never be the same and I will miss him terribly ππ
Only one slot left on the bath only day just before Christmas - 12.00 on Friday 22nd December up for grabs π
I have a few spaces before the mad Christmas rush, please message me to get booked in.
No new customers, sorry.

I now have next years diary so if your next groom is due in 2024, I will be able to book you in.
Just a quick reminder that I am still not taking new customers on, and to contact me if you need to rebook. You guys also know I never mind if you need to check what appointments you have coming up too π

πPERSONAL NOTICEπ
Some of you may be aware that my lovely dad was diagnosed with a brain tumour a few weeks ago. He has had surgery but unfortunately had a stroke on Sunday and was rushed to hospital. Heβs very poorly now and canβt have any further treatment, so is under palliative care.
π
My dad was pivotal in the building of Shampooches, and so supportive of my business dream. Without him, none of this (and so many other things) wouldβve been possible.
π
I am trying to keep the grooms going as much as I can around normal life and being with dad, but wanted to give notice that there may be times that I will have to postpone your grooms to be with my family. I will try to give as much notice as possible, please bear with me. You are all such a supportive bunch, so I thank you in advance.

Hello everyone! September is about the time I open up the diary to Christmas, as itβs as short as 2 grooms away for some dogs!
π
If you want to book up until Christmas, please message me as we all know the slots get filled super quick. Please try to stick to your usual schedule if possible. I may be working some days between Christmas and New Year this year, so that will take some pressure off.
π
I will be doing my usual and hugely popular βBath onlyβ day for those who want a super freshly washed dog ready to greet their relatives over Christmas. This will be my last working day before Christmas which is Friday 22nd Dec. Itβs one hour slots, on the hour, one in-one out type of day, so if you want a slot, please let me know.
π
Take care and se you soon,
Vicki πΆππΎ
Hi all, Iβm now back from our lovely summer holiday, if anyone messaged me whilst I was away you should now have a reply. If not, please chase me up!!!
There have been a few changes in the diary due to customer holidays so if you need to change your appointment or ask about availability, please do get in contact. If you canβt remember when your appointment is, please ask, I never mind!!!
Please also be reminded of the price increase from 1st Sept.
See you all soon πΆππΎ
Devastated to learn of the passing of beautiful little Mia this morning, what a gorgeous girl she was. It was an absolute pleasure to groom and care for her. Sending all my love to her family π πΆ πΎ
