Millie had a busy afternoon playing at @dailydogdigs followed by a pamper with me! I think itโs safe to say sheโs a little bit tired ๐ด๐
Another happy puppy enjoying a yummy treat at the end of his puppy grooming session ๐ฅฐ๐ถ๐ฆด
Today I ended Ripleyโs puppy groom with an enrichment activity to reward him for being such a good boy during his session. This also helps the puppies to realise that grooming is a positive experience and the salon is a fun place to be!
I put some small treats in a towel and scrunched it up so Ripley had to sniff out the treats, he loved it ๐ฅฐ
(Ripleyโs a Shih Tzu but looks much like a Guinea Pig in this video๐คฃ)
Beastie isnโt the biggest fan of being groomed. Itโs taken a long time to gain his trust but weโre getting there!
Usually if I tried to stroke or pet him, he would growl or try to bite me. Today was different!
He was such a happy boy throughout and after his haircut. Itโs so rewarding seeing a dogs behaviour change so much over time and become a positive experience for them ๐ฅฐ
Post pamper excitement! ๐
Not the best video but these two are just so sweet๐ฅฐ๐ถ
I spent some time playing with Luna after her puppy groom today and she loved it!
This is a great way for puppies to recognise that the grooming salon is a fun place to be and that the grooming process is rewarding!
The sounds and smells of a new place can be quite scary for a puppy, so itโs a good idea to bring them in from a young age to get them used to it. Puppies can be groomed a week after their second set of vaccinations.
If youโd like more information on puppy grooming, please send me a message and Iโll be happy to help!

Itโs tiring work being blow dried ๐ด๐ฅฐ๐พ
๐ Short haired dogs need grooming too! ๐
Grooming short haired dogs helps to remove the dead undercoat and to keep their skin in good condition... it will also reduce the amount of shed hair that accumulates in your home, on your furniture and on your clothes!
Many pets shed continuously throughout the year, while others may โblowโ their coat seasonally.
Your dog may still have a few loose hairs falling out a few days after the treatment. After that, shedding will be greatly reduced if not, eliminated.
A deshed groom consists of a bath, blow dry - with a high velocity dryer, which blows a lot of the dead coat out, then a brush out using de-shedding tools such as a zoom groom (featured in video) or a furminator. They will also receive a nail clip, ear clean and wrinkle clean if required. Prices start from ยฃ20.
This is Marley the Pug having his deshed today. Such a good boy and loves his monthly pamper ๐ฅฐ๐๐ถ
Betty couldnโt sit and wait for her biscuit any longer ๐คฃ๐ถ๐พ
Dolly just loves to lay on the comfy towels after her bath and blow dry ๐ฅฐ๐
