I haven’t actually looked at our Google page for a few months, and I’m blown away by all of you lovely people leaving us these awesome reviews after your visits recently 🥰 reviews (good or bad) can help potential customers choose the right groomer for them and their dog, and we’re so thankful to you for taking the time to leave us one 🐶🐾

I don’t think we’ve posted any of our dogs for a while! So here is Princess Lunabelle after her fresh trim the other week 🥰 ✂️ her fur is lovely and thick so we’re growing her out into a more Asian style 💅

How ADORABLE is this tiny fluff ball!! 😍🥰

Barney had a bath & blow dry yesterday as step 2 of his puppy introduction to grooming package, he was super brave and is such a snuggly little boy 🩵🩵

We’re sure that he’ll be a little superstar by the time he gets to full grooms, and his mums are doing a wonderful job at home with getting him used to being brushed, blow dried and handled 🌟

Who can guess what breed he is? Comment below if you think you know👇

Yes we know 😂 the sun is shining and we’re here planning for Christmas already, but it will be here before we know it! ☀️

🎄🎅 CHRISTMAS APPOINTMENTS 🎅🎄

December is starting to fill up fast so please book in asap to avoid missing out ...

Christmas appointments can only be booked currently if your dog is in/groomed with us no more than 8 weeks prior to your Christmas appointments (depending on breed/style). Once all our regular customers have booked in for their preferred slots, we will offer any spaces we have to everyone else to book.

📅 🎆 NEW YEAR APPOINTMENTS 🎆 📅

Kim is pregnant and due towards the end of January, so all New Year appointments in January/early Feb cannot be 100% guaranteed as she could ‘pop’ at any point after Christmas!

New year appointments will only be offered to existing clients on regular schedules, we won’t be taking on any new clients from January onwards until she’s back from maternity later in the year.

I will also be changing our opening hours to start at 8:30.

Block bookings for 2025 will only be done after the baby is born, so we know when everyone’s schedule will fall.

- SATURDAYS

We will also be reducing the amount of Saturday appointments available next year so we can have more quality family time together. I will only be opening Saturdays every 6th & 7th week. I should be able to fit our most regular clients in during these 2 weeks, so if you would like to be added onto the list for Saturdays for 2025 comment below and I’ll be in touch to schedule the appointments. These slots will only be offered to regular, long standing clients. If you currently have weekend slots but can do a weekday let us know!

Merry August ☀️

🐾 Attention dog owners! 🐾

Did you know that constantly switching between groomers can have detrimental effects on your furry friend's grooming routine? Dogs thrive on consistency and building a relationship with their groomer can lead to a stress-free and enjoyable grooming experience. We can always tell a huge behavioural difference between dogs who have consistently used one or two groomers through their life and dogs who have been to multiple groomers over their life with no consistency to their grooming routine.

At our salon, we understand the importance of maintaining a regular grooming schedule for your beloved pup. That's why we are only accepting new clients on 3-8 week schedules maximum (based on our recommendation for your dog’s breed and coat type). This ensures that your dog receives the proper care and attention they deserve, and they are allowed the time to get used to us, our salon and our routine, resulting in a happy and healthy pup!

Our salon is known for providing top-notch grooming services and we only use the highest quality products to properly take care of your dog’s coat type. We do not use cheap products that just smell nice, all products we use have specific properties to enhance your dogs coat, and nourish their skin.

If you're serious about keeping your dog in top condition and maintaining their grooming needs at home, look no further than our salon. Give your furry friend the pampering they deserve and schedule your appointment today! 🐶✨

We’re launching a new line of products at the salon!

The products we use currently are amazing as you all know, and we’ll continue to use them daily. However, we’ll be introducing a new line of shampoos, conditioners and coat management products.

The new products contain ingredients like Keratin, Biotin, activated charcoal, and Vitamin B to name a few. These products are designed specifically to your dogs coat type and can improve overall texture, regrowth, volume and quality. They also get absorbed by your dogs skin to promote a healthy, luscious coat.

These products are a lot more expensive due to their ingredients, so we’ll be charging a small fee to add them into your grooms or baths.

These are especially effective for dogs who have specific styles (such as Asian Fusion, hand-scissored or teddy bear), and work really well for dogs in show cuts or breed standard trims. We use them on our own dogs and have for some time, and the results are un-matched.

If you’d like to enquire about them just ask us on your next visit, or drop us a message for more information on how they could help your dog.
