I’ve a few spaces left for pop in pet care whilst you’re away on holiday (tailored to your needs) over the summer holidays. Please get in touch if you’d like some information. 😊
Sorry this is not suitable for our canine friends who need more constant care and company.

BUT… the nose does cool inhaled air. So in hot weather using a little cold water on it can help your pet. Not too much as you don’t want them to inhale it!

So much to learn…

She also runs first aid courses for our pets - she does live and online courses.
If you are interested there is one near Harroagte this year in Knaresborough.

Her courses are in-depth but easy to follow and understand. Sophie is always happy to answer questions.
Highly recommend.

It’s been reading 24c here where I am today. So it was a walk early morning then another this evening. I don’t have high risk dogs, but still at this temperature it is a risk. I love my dogs dearly so I won’t be putting them at risk.

The importance of finding a good ethical qualified KIND behaviourist and trainer is essential - I can’t stress this enough.
If you are looking for help, support and training - please do your research - ask questions - especially about training methods.
Find out if you are a good fit.
A good trainer will be happy to discuss this with you before you make a commitment.
Kindness and respect for our furry friends should be paramount in everything we do for them -
Whether it be a trainer, a walker, home boarding, kennels - oh and your groomer 😊🐾

What makes me different as a dog trainer/behaviourist? Aside from my qualifications and experience
I get it!
I live with 5 dogs, 3 relatively easy domestic dogs, and 2 rescues with complex behaviours and history.
I really do understand the different training and management needed for each individual dog, I live with it day in day out, I understand the frustrations, and the perceived judgement of others, I get it.
So when I work with pet parents I am working to understand their whole families needs and to support them so that they can give the right support to their dogs, their journey is unique to them.
There are no short cuts to training, no magic wands, or special equipment that will fix things. We must learn to understand the dog in front of us, and work with that dog, not the dog that we wish it was. We must nurture the bond, the trust, meet their basic needs and provide safe outlets for their behaviours, before we ask anything else of our dogs.
All dogs are amazing, but they aren’t all cut out to be the docile, super sociable, sofa surfing domestic pet that society expects them to be, I see the differences, I get it.

An appointment has become available for 15th July@3pm. Now taken.

Please get in touch if you’d like either 🐾😊

A bit of housekeeping.

My next availability is now the 25th July.
I do occasionally get reschedules which I have a waiting list for - if they can’t be filled by those on my list - due to timings - I pop them up here for others who have not asked to go on my list to have the opportunity to grab.

Please try and book your next appointment at the time of your last groom to avoid going over schedule and disappointment.
I am away for 10 days over the summer and as such I already have limited availability into September.

IMPORTANT

If you make your appointments via message please note I can only hold any appointment’s offered until 7pm that day so it’s important to reply promptly.
Unfortunately due to demand I can’t hold them longer and this week it has caused a bit of frustration for a few clients -
I am sorry this is the case but I’m sure you can appreciate that if I don’t get a response I have no alternative than to offer the slot to the next client waiting.
Saying that - Please feel free to call me to discuss - I realise life is busy and can be a juggle and on occasion I can extend this time 😊🐾

I haven’t posted any teeth for a while - not as pretty as pictures of the lovely dogs I groom -
This is Bertie who has a regular maintenance clean.
Please get in touch if you’d like to discuss the Emmi-pet ultrasonic
system I use. This is a quiet and gentle system that allows the brush head to remain stationary for the clean meaning most dogs can tolerate it.
An assessment is essential first as there are some reasons it might not be suitable - gum disease and cracked or damaged teeth being a few.
I also offer manual teeth cleaning as an add on to a groom for £5.
Please note - Neither are a replacement for regular vet teeth checks but can certainly help with tartar build up 🦷

It’s the weather for more snakes to be out!

Please be extra vigilant when walking through long grass, bracken and woodland, where it is advisable to keep your dog on a lead.

If your dog should be bitten by an adder you should do the following:

1) Call your vet or nearest practice and get advice to where the nearest centre with anti-venom is.

2) If possible, carry your dog back to the car. This will help reduce the venom spreading around the body.

3) Cold water bathing the bite wound can be effective in reducing swelling.

Please share to make ALL dogs owners aware.

The warmer weather is set until Wednesday/Thursday.
With that in mind I wanted to ask any clients with concerns about the heat impact on their lovely dogs to get in touch.
As I have full air-conditioning the grooms can go ahead within reason - but consideration must be given by yourselfs to transportation and air conditioning in your cars to and from the groom - only you can know if it’s safe for you to bring your dog.
I can make sure things are safe once they are here.
Also the more venerable dogs with health issues, older dogs and also dogs that struggle in the heat need extra thought.
In the past I have worked round some of these more potentially difficult grooms for the dogs by starting early and working late - avoiding the hottest part of the day.
Please do get in touch if you have concerns and we will work around it.
Always always better to be safe than sorry even if it causes a little inconvenience for us humans 😊🐾
