I know we don’t post much (at all) from Hilton Hounds, that’s my bad… it gets quite busy running a dog grooming parlour and a pub.

But behind the scenes Hilton Hounds also sponsor/have sponsored local young sportspeople in rugby and shinty.

One of our team (literally, as he also works at the pub) is young Alasdair Chamberlain. Alasdair won man of the match for Aberdour’s 2nd team in their recent match against Oban. Congratulations Ally!

Sorry folks, it’s becoming incredibly difficult to keep prices as they are. Our last increase was almost 3 years ago and with the rising costs across the board we need to apply an increase to make ends meet. New pricing will take effect from 1st June 2023.

We’ll also be losing Shona which is really sad. But for the time being, I’ll be maintaining things on my own so May need to make some changes to appointment times. I’ll be in touch if this impacts you.

Thanks for your co-operation. Phil

Yes, I am an ABSOLUTE nugget!!!

I’ve only went and lost my diary, been searching for days with no luck 😭

If you are booked in and have a date this week or near future, can you please send me a message so I can try to piece together what my life looks like over the next 4 months… I have cried several times already.

Thanks for understanding and I’m sorry if there are any mistakes/double bookings/cancellations in the coming weeks.

Afternoon folks…

Just a wee update… it’s really, really busy at the moment with next available appointments now in to August.

If you are a regular 6-12 weekly appointment, please remember to book your next appointment upon collection of your dug 🐕 If you are 3 weekly, please get in touch to book in for the next few months to guarantee your regular space.

If you just want to chance it, then please give at least a month before you’d like your dug groomed.

It’s great to be busy but it also don’t like to disappoint so trying to be as structured as possible.

🙏 🐕❤️

Evening all. Quick update on the move - although you’ll all probably be aware.

After a long wait we were finally granted Change of Use in mid-July and commenced working from 15 Main Street, Limekilns mid-August. There’s still lots to do but we’re loving the new venue and more importantly the dugs are too. They’re also not that bothered will all the passers by peeping through the window.

We’ve started to offer a limited range of merchandise although this will grow a little over the next few months. So far we have:

~ Premium Poo Bags from Mutts Butts
~ Collars, Leads & Beds - Bespoke & Handcrafted by the girls at Doggie Apparel
~ Doggy Cologne
~ Brushes, Combs & De-Matting Tools
~ Paw Balm and Natural Beeswax Shampoo from Apiary

Perfect presents for Christmas 🐶 🎄

Finally, OUR BOOKS ARE NOW OPEN for NEW DUGS. We’re hoping to dedicate a bit more time to the shop which means we’re able to take on some lovely new clients - please get in touch 🐶

I also promise to be a bit more on top of the Socials and provide lots of updates and if you’d like, some before and after pics of your dugs - something I’ve always been terrible at… I’ve always got one or the other, never both!! 🤣

Drummm rolllll 🥁

So after many months of planning and hoop jumping, we are pleased to announce that we’ll be moving premises to 15 Main Street (formerly The Kilns Gift Shop).

We’re in the process of finishing off the interior and will announce our move in date in due course. As well as our regular grooming services, we’ll also be stocking a range of lovely merchandise from beds to leads and collars and a wee bit more. We’re thrilled and excited to be expanding our services.

Appointments at the moment are very busy, however over the next couple of months we hope to be able to extend our opening hours and open the books to new customers 🐶 🐩 🐕 ✂️

Thank you to all our customers for your continued support. We’ll be in touch soon with the move in date ❤️

31/03/2021

Evening all. Hope you’re all well and behaving 🐶

Following the government’s update, non-essential businesses will start to re-open soon which means we’ll be available for maintenance grooming and not just essential welfare grooming. Yippee.

If I haven’t already contacted you and you still require an appointment, please do get in touch and we’ll get the diary filled up. Thank you for all being so patient...

Also, we hope to have some exciting news to share with you in the next couple of weeks regarding new premises.... so, keep your ears and eyes peeled! Watch this space....
