Winston is sharing great news ✨
From this week I now have someone helping with the admin side of the business - that means answering all of your lovely messages quicker than I have been 😀
So please be aware that it will no longer be me you will be speaking to across text, WhatsApp, Instagram & Facebook.
The main reason for this is to help me reduce my hours so please be considerate when given appointment options, things will be a lot more structured going forward.
Thanks
Jill 👩🏼🦰
The importance of early detection 🪥🦷
The handsomest Chester started his ultrasonic teeth cleaning journey with us - his mum detected the start of tartar build up 👹 and with his first session it was gone ✨
Prevention is key 🔑 and Chester will keep his pearly whites with regular maintenance sessions 🐶
Pair of cuties 💕💕
Daisy & Duke decked out in their new doodlebone harnesses & a fresh trim ✂️
Side note: PLEASE remember to be responsible for booking your own appointments. We are super busy and it works so much better if you book in salon OR send me a message with your next appointment dates.
We have over 250 apps to remember - you only have 1, so help us out & book your next apps in advance.
Thanks 🐶
Life is better when you just smile 😀

Ok guys listen up 📣 appointment update…
I will be no longer accepting appointments on the tuft app. I will be getting in touch with everyone to confirm appointments previously made on there - but any new requested will be rejected. I will be removing the app asap.
Please message me for any future appointments you require. It’s back to good old pen & paper 📝
Please be responsible for your OWN appointment schedules. Please book in salon or message me with your next request. We are so busy in salon it’s becoming increasingly difficult to automatically manage peoples appointments on their behalf.
Please don’t rely on me to remember - you know what I’m like 😂
July is fully booked - August is almost full - spaces in September.
I will open October - December next month, but happy to receive request in advance. These will not be confirmed until diary is open.
Sorry for all the info!
Also remember you can book with Lily via
Sorry we’ve been quiet - but we’ve been busy with cuties 🐶
….like Ralph 💙
We will be back with appointment updates tomorrow ✨ happy Sunday ✨
Morning ✨
I will be replying to as many messages as I can between now & sunday.
Thank you for everyone who has moved appointments with me being poorly with this horrible flu/virus - I’m still not 100% but trying to do what I can.
Appreciate everyone’s patience
Thanks
I’m officially on holiday guys 🌞
I appreciate I havent been able to respond to all messages before I left but the salon was super busy fitting you all in before hand. So apologies for this

🎉 CONGRATULATIONS 🎉
Just wanted to say a HUGE well done to Lily - who has now passed her grooming exams with flying colours 🌈 & a distinction ✨
You’ve all met Lily in the salon over the past (almost) 3 years whilst she’s been training with me. So happy that she can now start her own grooming journey….
She will be working independently from me but based in Alfie & Bear - so please drop her a message to book an appointment if your not able to fit in with me OR if you just happy give her some support.
Message her or message me and I can pass on her mobile number.
Kodi present for super cuteness 🛁
✨✨✨✨✨
Good morning ✨
I still have a hand full of people to contact regarding appointments - sorry for the delay.
Aside from those I am now FULL for April & May. I have limited June appointments due to personal holidays.
I will be opening July & August diary this week and will update all requests on the app for this month.
From mid-May I will now be working alone under Alfie & Bear. You all know Lily who has been working with me - she is setting up independently but will be working within the salon.
She will be starting her own business - and I ask any of you willing to support her please do book with Lily for future appointments if possible. She may not be able to accept all standards of grooms at the moment as she builds her skills & confidence.
I simply won’t be able to keep everyone with me, so I just ask you to support her the way you did for me when I started!
Message me if you’re willing to do this & I will pass on contact details to make your appointments.
Thank you 💕
Ready for his close up 📸
Beautiful Kinsley the bearded collie 💕
The salon is extremely busy at the moment.
Please understand I will get to messages as soon as I can, sorry for the delay.
Thanks
