What a perfect way to spend my day!
Three gorgeous furbabies. 🥰
Each very different but equally as gorgeous.🐕 Quite a transformation for furbaby number three.🙂

Good evening everyone. 😘

We have just come back this evening from a week in Malta so I'm just getting round to returning messages and calls.

Sorry for the delay! If I haven't contacted you by tomorrow evening just give me a gentle reminder.
Once again thankyou for your continued support it means alot.🐶🐕xx

Being a dog groomer means I see lots of senior /poorly dogs come through the door. 😭
I get asked time and time again what I would do in such a difficult situation and I always highly recommend these amazing people.

My story!
Unfortunately we lost 3 of our senior family pets over a 2 year period! After doing lots of research, we came across Southern Sky pet crematorium.

At such a difficult time the compassion they showed and gave to us was exemplary.
Nothing was too much trouble!
It was always going to be very hard saying goodbye 😪 but I can whole heartedly say, I'm glad we found them!
Ashes were back with us very quickly (following day at the latest) which meant we had our precious furbabies back where they belong. They also supplied some necklaces, hearts and keyrings containing ashes so the children had something to hold close. (Me too)

In the nicest possible way, I hope we don't see them personally for a number of years but instead of me giving out there number to clients over a text, they very kindly delivered some leaflets to me. (These will be available if and when required)
So please just ask.

It's always a pleasure to see this handsome fella.🥰
All the way from Leeds for his summer cut. 🐶
He has such impeccable behaviour and it's so lovely (and exciting) watching his confidence grow.

**Excuse my poor videography skills. **
I get calls time and time again from owners saying groomers are refusing their dogs asking if I groom difficult dogs?
My anwser: ABSOLUTELY YES, I will give it my very best try! Every dog deserves a chance!
The video below was taken on this gorgeous furbabies 2nd visit.
The only grooming aids used to assist was the noose and belly strap and as you can see, even these are loose.
This young fella is more reactive/sensitive in certain areas so we do abit and move on ensuring his areas of uncertainty are always touched/stroked to reassure him there is nothing to worry about.
His muzzle is an area, he is particularly uncomfortable with so this had to be held whilst being trimmed. 1: so he doesn't loose his tongue 🤮 2: to ensure I get out of the way if needed.🙈
NO NEED for muzzles, no need to pin down and no need for 3/4 groomers working on him at a time. Patience, kindness and reassurance is needed.
Looks quite contented to me 🥰.
Working with reactive dogs is better than working against.
Oh and he relishes on kisses and cuddles.

Massive thankyou to the owners for trusting me with their precious furbaby and for being honest from the start.😘

Thankyou in advance.

It's always so special and exciting introducing puppies to their first grooming experience. 🥰 This one was extra special with not one but two exceptionally well behaved little (not so little) furbabies.🐶

22/05/2024

Completion of the puppy package for this little beauty.🥰 At just 6 months old, It's been an honour watching her grow at a very quick pace with such impeccable behaviour.

What better way to spend his spare time after a groom out enjoying the sunshine.🥰

03/05/2024

Who said dogs don't like being groomed! 🤔This handsome fella thoroughly enjoys his pamper sessions.🥰

26/04/2024

This handsome fella started visiting as a young pup. Now at just 10 months old, he has the whole grooming process sussed. 🥰I think he actually relishes on the kisses and cuddles.🤣

This gorgeous furbaby is very young and it goes to show how early introduction to grooming and co operative care from his parents really does have a massive impact!

On arrival he is a little nervous but after a run and a cuddle he knows exactly what he needs to do!🥰
( just a litttle camera shy!)
So please to all you fabulous dog owners out there. Take time to interact with your dog and make brushing and teeth brushing part of your daily routine. They and I will thank you for it.🤗

Gosh, where has the time gone?😱
People have been asking why I haven't posted for a while? 🤔 There is no reason other than being busy with your gorgeous furbabies.🥰
I also got asked why I never advertise? Truth is, I don't need too! My work is through loyalty and recommendations and for that I am grateful for.
Thankyou everyone, love to you all.

Ps. If I have forgotten to book you in for next year just ping me a gentle reminder.🤣🤣
