🐶 CALLING XL BULLY OWNERS 🐶

We have had a lot of concerned XL Bully Owners speak to us about our centre, shop and whether their dogs will continue to be welcomed.

We would like to confirm that we will GLADLY welcome XL Bullies into our centre for Private Hire Sessions Monday-Friday. Each Private Hire session is 45 minutes long and costs £12 for up to 4 dogs (£2 per dog thereafter up to a maximum of 10 dogs). Legislation dictates that each XL Bully must have one handler with them (i.e. one owner couldn’t bring two Bullies with them).

Under the current guidance, all XL Bullies visiting us must have a muzzle which can be REMOVED as soon as you are inside the secure play centre.

XL Bullies are still very welcome in our shop but would have to keep their muzzle on during their visit. Our clinic services (such as nail clippings) are still available for you too but again, muzzles must be kept on.

We can only sympathise with you in this awful situation and if anybody would like to ask any questions regarding this please email [email protected] or ring 01484 246420 and ask to speak to Emily. We really appreciate everyone bearing with us

Customer Announcement.
I will be changing some of your prices from the 1st of April. This is to ensure fairness to all.
Prices are based on, Dogs temperament, Breed, size/weight, coat type, length and condition, regularity of grooming schedule and time taken to complete the groom.
I have been grooming 10years this year in that time I have been attending educational courses, paying insurance, gaining in experience as well as moving into a new venue and having supplies increase in costs.
All of this adds up, meaning my prices are now needing to increase in some cases. (Passion alone doesn't pay bills)
If you have any queries please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for your support
Kat

If anyone still needs help or knows someone who needs assistance please pass this on. Save our XL Bullys!

📣 There are just two weeks to go until all American Bully XL dogs in England and Wales must be kept on a lead and muzzled in public but there is still time to get your dog ready and happy wearing a muzzle.
Dogs Trust are supporting XL Bully owners in a number of ways to help them prepare their dogs for this:

👉 50% discount for XL Bully owners at their 121 muzzle training sessions https://bit.ly/3sM6o5k

👉 There are also a few spots remaining on their free online muzzle training webinars https://bit.ly/3RsuUCw

Please note, this training and support is available to all breeds, but is part of the Dogs Trusts practical support and advice programme for owners of XL Bully dogs ahead of the upcoming ban to give them the best chance of staying together with their dog when the ban is legally enforced.

Sleep tight beautiful boy. You will be sorely missed. Loved always. Run free Alfie 💔🌈🐾
Edit to clarify Alfie was a long running client not one of my pack. But it does affect me when one of your furry friends leaves us.

Hi everyone unfortunately due to the increase in running costs of the car as well as time taken to complete collections and drop offs I will be increasing collection and drop of fees to £10.
If you are lucky enough to receive this service I must make you aware of the cost to me.
Time taken just for the collection and drop off on average is an hour. In that time I could be grooming another dog at roughly £35!
I pay for additional insurance, business and pet taxi in the event should something happen in transit.
Car maintenance: these costs are like everything else are increasing.
Fuel: cars dont run on air and if you ever go past a petrol station you'll see those numbers ever increasing.
I also find driving in general stressful not to mention trying to keep to time. So please if you receive this service either be respectful or choose to find an alternative way of getting your dogs to me.
This service is not available to new clients only clients already being collected and dropped off in a prebooking capacity.
Sorry for the long post but I feel a bit taken advantage of at the moment.
I am a dog groomer with a dedicated premises. Not a taxi or mobile groomer. My business has developed to such a place I no longer have the luxury of time like I used to have when I first started.
Thank you for your support

Hi Everyone Sorry in the delay in responding to messages but I've been a little preoccupied arranging this little surprise for my husband.
This is our new boarder collie puppy! He's just 8weeks old.
We've yet to decide on a name but I'm sure we'll get there, we've a couple short listed.
The intention is to have him as Matts running buddy with also the possibility of agility, search and rescue and canicross.
Once he has a name I plan on creating an Instagram account so everyone can keep up with his little escapades.

Hi everyone I'm very upset as yet another person has taken advantage of my kindness and understanding and failed to show for a Saturday appointment. Now if you've ever tried to book a Saturday with me you'll know they are very hard to come by.
So going forward ALL Saturday appointments will be prepay only. This will mean I must receive payment for the appointment no later than 24hrs prior to the appointment.
All new clients booking ANY appointments will be required to pay the full base charge of the groom on booking.
And finally in the New Year there will be a non refundable deposit required on ALL bookings.
I am Sick of being taken advantage of, I dont deserve it. I have my own bills to pay, my own animals to feed and a life outside my business.
For everyone who has been amazing from the day they started using my services I thank you so much for your understanding going forward.

Please ensure all cancellations are made at least 24hrs in advance or you may loose future bookings.
