Mini grooms are perfect for those in-between full groom appointments, to keep your dog clean and maintain their smart appearance, or throughout the winter months when perhaps a full body trim is not required.

They include:
- Warm water bath
- Blowdry
- Pawdicure
- Trim near the eyes
- Ears cleaned
- Hygiene area trim

We also find many owners opt for this when the dogs are attending weddings or family gatherings and want their dogs to be clean and tidy!

Here is 8 month old Miniature Schnauzer, Betty 🥰

Her owner was worried she wasn't going to settle, but taking things at Betty's pace and introducing new things slowly, she behaved beautifully. I am looking forward to seeing her again in the New Year.

Your dogs don’t join this club, they just progress into it. Some dogs are like Peter Pan and never seem to change, others slow down sooner but each one is different and needs that individual approach.

As dogs enter their senior years, they may experience changes like diminished sight or hearing, or stiffer joints, which can develop gradually or sometimes quite suddenly. If you notice these changes at home, please let me know so I can adjust their grooming session to make it as comfortable as possible. This might mean more frequent visits for shorter trims or allowing extra breaks during their groom.

Having senior dogs myself, I understand their needs and am here to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for every step of the way.

At The Dog House, our goal is simple: to ensure that your dog’s grooming experience is completely stress-free and enjoyable from start to finish. 💛 We believe that every dog should leave feeling relaxed and happy, not just looking great but also feeling great!

By working mostly on a 1:1 basis, we provide a calm and quiet environment, ideal for dogs who are shy, nervous, or have had challenging grooming experiences in the past. This way, we can take our time and go at their pace, without the distraction of other dogs or any rush.

Our grooming space is crate-free, purpose-built for comfort, and designed with your dog’s wellbeing in mind - heated in winter, air-conditioned in summer, and infused with the calming scents of Tisserand essential oils.

We only use high-quality, natural shampoos and conditioners, tailored to suit your dog’s coat and skin needs, with no harmful chemicals - because your dog deserves the best. Plus, our cleaning products are non-toxic, plant-based, vegan, and proudly British-made.

For us, it’s all about creating a safe, comfortable space where your dog feels as good as they look.

Over the past few months, we’ve been busy behind the scenes making some big changes here at The Dog House - including a full refurb! 🎉🐕

We’ve spruced things up to make the space even better for your dogs (and for us too!). I can’t wait for you to see what’s new! Take a peek and let me know what you think.

It's been interesting to see that the dogs have noticed the changes, especially the new bath!

Hello everyone!

I’ve been so busy with life, work, and of course, my own dogs, that I’ve given my social media a bit of a miss lately. But I’m pleased to say that I’m back!

For those who don’t know me, I’m Colleen, and I’ve been grooming dogs here in Woodthorpe since 1992. Grooming has always been more than just a job to me and I'm lucky to be able to say I still love it after all these years.

I can’t wait to share more with you all about what I’ve been up to, introduce some of my gorgeous clients, and show a little more of who I am and how I work behind the scenes.

Thank you all for your continued trust and support. 🐾
