Hair off the Dog NI

26/10/2022

Warning: I understand pregnancy announcements can be upsetting for some who are struggling so out of respect I'll keep details brief.

Hi all,

This is such a bittersweet post for me to write but the time has come to share some news with you all: in early March my partner Tamas and I will be welcoming our first baby.

Unfortunately, due to a few circumstances including running costs rising so suddenly and me working alone with a growing bump, I've made the difficult decision to close the business at the end of December.

I've had such an incredible 6 years with Hair off the Dog and I've absolutely loved building relationships with you and your dogs, who I am going to miss so very much ❤

This isn't goodbye forever, I'm planning to keep most of my equipment so I can reopen elsewhere after I've enjoyed some time being a first time mammy.

In the meantime, I hope I'll see you all before Christmas and please send me a text or WhatsApp to book in- I'll be working hard to fit everyone in before I head off.

Thank you, thank you, thank you so very much to every one of you who's made this chapter of life so interesting and wonderful 😊

I'll be sure to keep you updated on when I hope to reopen, and any other updates in the meantime, so will keep the page open.

Hi everyone 👋

A heads up that from 1st April there will be a price increase: I've held off on this for as long as possible but, as you know, everything has gone up in price so much that to be able to keep the lights on and keep going it's my only option.

I promise to keep prices competitive and, now that everything has opened up properly, I plan to attend more seminars and shows to continue to learn and provide the best service I can.

At the moment, I'm fully booked up until 20th April so encourage everyone to make their next appointment each time they're in...

I don't, for one moment, take your support for granted and thank you so much for all your understanding ❤

Please text/WhatsApp 07955200555 to make an appointment.

Did you catch this article in Belfast Live highlighting our wonderful village? You might see some faces you recognise 😅

"It's a very nice, welcoming community and has a lot going on with everything that people need right here"

I would like to wish all of you a very happy new year full of health, happiness and prosperity ✨

This has been a year full of the highest highs, and the lowest lows, but I'm so deeply grateful for you continuing to allow me to take care of your very important family members, it's been an honour 😊

I have managed to catch Covid unfortunately (barely any symptoms thankfully 🤞) so I'll need to delay opening by just a couple of days, so I'll be reopening again on Thursday- I'll be in touch with everyone booked in before then after you've all enjoyed your New Year's Eve.

See you in 2022!

In memory of Barry, who passed over the rainbow bridge 3 years ago today.

Sometimes a dog will come in for a groom and you can tell they are just different and something special...that was Baz! Have a read of his backstory, what a character he was 😅

I truly miss seeing him and I often think of him, as I know my friend Lauren who took him in at the ripe old age of 14 through Friends Of Rescue does ❤

I'll post a photo in the comments of him all fluffed up!

I want to thank Joe at Syro Digital NI so much for building me a brand sparkly new website- I'm so chuffed with how it's turned out! https://hairoffthedogni.co.uk/

It feels like the right time to give everything a bit of a refresh and this is a great start 🙂

Please take a look at the new website and give their page a follow as it's always great to support local business.

Also, we now have gift vouchers available if you'd like to treat someone's pooch for Christmas 🎄

Thought I'd share something I came across tonight from when I was in P3! Always been a bit dog obsessed and looking through my 'busy books' this definitely was 'my best writing' 😅

Hi all,

I've been holding off on writing this post this year to get as many regular customers booked in as possible but just a heads up for anyone who needs an appointment before Christmas...

I only have a few spaces left in the couple of weeks before so please send me a text or WhatsApp to 07955200555 and days and times that work best and I'll get you booked in (Facebook messages don't always come through).

Unfortunately I can't take any new customers that haven't been groomed with me before, just in the 2 weeks prior to Christmas, as these appointments are reserved for regulars 🙂

I'll be opening Monday-Saturday 9am onwards.

Thanks!
