Update on Sally
Sporting loads of bold patches 🥲
Surgery went well with no complications yesterday, they had to put two staples in as the incision was too big to leave fully open and while she was under they also did the scans and test, reason that I took her for before the incident.
Scans and ultrasound were done and also blood and urine tests done. A culture had also been taken and sent off, will take 5 days for results, till we get that we won’t know what our next steps will be. Hopefully now on our way to recovery 🙏❤️🐾

Hi everyone

Update on Sally, I took her back to the vets yesterday as the past two evenings I’ve had to soak her bite wound and gently as possible remove the scab that’s formed over and then basically squeeze and pop it 🙈 it has been swelling up and filling with puss, by next evening it’s filled up again and sealed over. After seeing the vet she’s now booked in tomorrow to have minor surgery on it to widen the opening clean it out removing any dead tissue and leaving it open so it can drain 😞
Going to be a hard recovery for her and me, keeping it clean and supervise her so she’s not licking it, with work to try and prevent any fur getting on the wound 😣 I’m sure a game plan will be figured out 🙏❤️

Much love and appreciation Kay & Sally ❤️🐾

Hi, I had an incident while at the vets on Monday, a staffy went for sally, I didn’t think it had managed to get her as she didn’t yelp, while in the vets I noticed blood on her right leg and found she had got quite a deep puncture wound, informed the receptionist and vet. Told to salt bathe it and leave it uncovered, an hour after the vets it had swelled significantly and she had become lame on it and not barring any weight on it. Phoned vets and they prescribed some pain medication, she had that, that evening and still not weight barring and it continued to swell more and started oozing pus 😣 I took her back to vets yesterday and she’s been given a antibiotic injection and a course of antibiotics and had the wound area clipped and cleaned out, hopefully now she will be on the road to recovery ❤️‍🩹
With the urgent situation I had to cancel and reschedule my customers yesterday and today, I will be back to work tomorrow as normal.
Thank you to all the customer that have been so understanding with me having to cancel last minute, I truly appreciate it.

Thank you all for your patience, much love and appreciation Kay & Sally ❤️🐾

Morning everyone

After deep consideration we have decided to fully not allow entire males for boarding or daycare. This is for many reasons one being safety for the dogs and ourselves as when we’ve had two males we have had fall outs and then have to separate them which cause stress to them as to why they can’t be with the others (separation anxiety). Another reason is hygiene as they constantly wee everywhere in the house (scent marking) this also encourages others to do this.
For entire males that come regularly for boarding, they can continue coming on the grounds that they arrange and get them booked in for a castration.

Much love and appreciation, Kay & Tina ❤️🐾

Hi everyone

I’m currently off work with covid, it’s made me really poorly 😖
I’ve just got to rebook customers back in that I’ve had to cancel and will get other customers booked in that have asked for appointments.
I will write everyone down in order and will make my way through the list.

Thank you everyone for your understanding and patience. I know I’ve been a headache recently 😔🤦🏼‍♀️

Much love and appreciation, Kay & Sally ❤️🐾

Some funny photos of Sally 😂🙌🏼

Hi everyone

I will get back to everyone over the weekend, it’s been a manic week and I’m doing everything solo as mum and dad (run the boarding side) have gone away for two weeks and went last Saturday, a week into their holiday today 🫠🥴
They look like their having a lovely time, especially with the weather cheering up ☀️

Some funny photos of mum enjoying herself at the castle where they filmed Harry Potter, shhh 🤫 don’t tell her 😂🙌🏼

07/06/2024

Hi everyone

I’ve had a lot of appointment requests and enquiries, I’m getting back to everyone slowly, busy in salon and been working late 🫠

I will get back to everyone, just maybe a slow process.
Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

Much love and appreciation, Kay ❤️🐾

Few photos from the last week or two ❤️🐾

22/04/2024

Few customers over the last week, sweet Charlie he likes to talk to me and nearly always has the tip of his tongue out 🥰🥹
Had the lovely Rosie cockerpoo, indeed ready for a groom, had quite a lot of matting so had to go short on this occasion, her first time with me quite shy but slowly came out her shell, with each appointment she will gain more and more confidence ❤️🐾
Handsome pepper, cocker spaniel he’s also quite timid but very loving and patient but he’s only just 1 year old, he had quite the overhaul groom to get him all ready for spring and make it easier for his owner with maintaining his coat and cleaning him off after a walk, I got told he likes to go in the trenches at the side of cows fields which are full of mud and cow slurry 😷🫣🙈

01/03/2024

Hi everyone

I have everyone noted down, customers that were cancelled last week and customers who have requested an appointment. I will get everyone booked back in over the weekend.

Thank you all tremendously for your patience and understanding.

Much love and appreciation, Kay & Sally ❤️🐾

In June rainworth dog grooming will be 11 years old. This statement is so true, with social media being so big now. A lot of people see a business and don’t acknowledge there’s a human being at the heart of that business, someone that’s put blood sweat and tears into building that business which is now what they live and breath for, just be kind, it maybe a second thought to you, but a big deal for the person on the other end ❤️😞🐾

22/02/2024

Hi everyone

I’m currently poorly with the flu that’s been going round, I’ve been cancelling work days day by day. Please bare with me I’m getting quite behind with bookings, will get back to people asap, as always message me again if it’s been a few days.

I truly appreciate everyone’s understanding and patience.

Much love and appreciation, Kay & Sally ❤️🐾

Hi everyone

I am off now and back at work on Saturday, late birthday break away, recharge and relax 🙌🏼
Any appointment request from now, I will respond to when I’m back in the salon.

Much love and appreciation, Kay & Sally ❤️🐾

I will always end a groom and would rather have the dog back in to finish off, it than to take the dog past its threshold and put him/her in fight/flight or freeze state, as that’s only going to make the dog more frightened next time he/she comes in 🙌🏼❤️🐾

05/01/2024

Big thank you to all my customers old and new, I truly appreciate every single one of you, I wouldn’t be doing what I love without you all, it is a privilege to be trusted with all you’re fury family members ❤️🐾
I’m hoping this year I will be more on it with social media with photos and posts, I’ve also had a surprise Christmas present that will be being used, exciting stuff will be happening 🙌🏼

Much love and appreciation, Kay & Sally ❤️🐾

Hi everyone

It has took a lot longer to diagnose, but finally got there in the end and I have now been diagnosed with adhd too, so I am audhd. With this now done I can now start the process of a treatment plan, so there is now a light at the end of the tunnel 🙌
I have also decided that I will be recommending to customers to book there next appointment on pick up before they leave. i have a very hard time remembering my own personal appointment etc, so I cant be relied on to remember to sort and book other peoples appointments, I end up getting too overwhelmed and forget. By no means, I mean this in a bad way at all, just need to be more organised and advance book to save disappointment, that's my main worry is people getting annoyed and upset with me, for forgetting to sort appointments and taking a long time to get back to you 😞
This is obviously not directed at new or old customers that haven't been for a while, directed at regular customers and customers that want to be on a schedule and advance book 😊

Thank you all for your patience and understanding, much love and appreciation, kay ❤️🐾
