🎓🐾 Koji the Shiba Inu – Puppy University Graduate! 🐾🎓
From Shiba scream to spa day dream… what a journey this little superstar has been on! ✨

Koji wasn’t the biggest fan of the grooming process during his first few sessions and treated us to the famous Shiba scream 😅 But with patience, lots of reassurance, and gentle 1-1 handling, he absolutely smashed his final session.

Today? He lay down, chilled out, and genuinely enjoyed being pampered – a huge milestone in his grooming journey! 🧼💛

We’re so proud of you Koji — onwards and upwards from here! 💫
Here’s to many more positive, confidence-building grooms ahead. 🐕‍🦺✨

❄️ Winter is coming… and so are mats and tangles!

Here are 3 essential tips to keep your pup’s coat healthy this season:
1️⃣ Continue with regular grooming appointments
2️⃣ Focus on regular brushing to prevent tangles and matting
3️⃣ Use a detangling spray and conditioning shampoo to prevent the coat drying out

💡 A little care now saves a lot of stress later — and your dog will thank you with a happy, shiny coat!

💬 Save this post for your winter grooming guide and share it with a fellow dog owner.

It’s shedding season! 🍂🐾
Dogs are starting to blow their summer coats — which means lots of fluff, lots of brushing… and a very satisfying blow dry moment! ✨

Regular de-shedding isn’t just for keeping your home fur-free — it helps remove dead, compacted coat so your dog can regulate their temperature properly, stay comfortable, and keep their skin healthy. 🧖‍♂️💨

Swipe the fluff away and let us do the hard work for you! 🐶✨

🎓🐾 Graduate alert! Our clever girl Maisie the Tibetan Terrier has officially graduated from Puppy University with her Diploma of Puppery! 💖✨

Maisie has been an absolute star throughout all of her pamper sessions — calm, confident and full of cuddles! 🛁🌸 Starting early really pays off; introducing puppies to grooming from a young age helps desensitise them to the sounds, smells and equipment they’ll encounter throughout their lives.

By building positive associations in a calm, 1-1 environment, we help pups like Maisie learn that grooming isn’t scary — it’s just another fun part of their routine! 🐶💆‍♀️

🎉 Huge congratulations Maisie — we’re so proud of you! 💛

✨ Lady’s Little Makeover! ✨
Say hello to gorgeous Lady the Cockapoo 😍

It had been a little while since her last groom, so Lady was quite overgrown — especially around her face and feet. Her mum has been doing an amazing job brushing and keeping on top of her coat at home, but was a bit nervous trimming those trickier areas 🙈💕

With a gentle tidy-up, lots of reassurance and some careful shaping, Lady is now looking fresh, fabulous and feeling like a brand-new girl! ✂️🐾
➡️ Swipe to see the before!

If you’d like some guidance on maintaining your dog’s coat between grooms (or need a helping hand with those delicate areas), I’m always happy to help 💛

🐾 Koji the Shiba Inu was back today for his second Puppy University pamper session! 💛

He needed a little extra reassurance from his mumma — we even got a taste of the famous Shiba scream (if you know, you know 😅).

With patience, cuddles, and lots of praise, Koji settled beautifully and finished his session looking and smelling gorgeous! ✨🐶

Learning experiences like these are what Puppy University is all about — building confidence, trust, and positive grooming habits for life 💛

🦷✨ Snoopy’s smile transformation! ✨🦷

At 14 years old, a dental under sedation was high risk due to his age — so we turned to our Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning to safely freshen up his smile 💛

Using gentle, ultrasonic technology, we can remove plaque and tartar without any sedation or harsh tools, making it perfect for older dogs or those who can’t have a dental under anaesthetic.

Benefits include:
🦷Helps prevent gum disease and bad breath
🦷Reduces tartar build-up
🦷Pain-free and stress-free
🦷Keeps your dog’s smile clean and healthy between vet visits

Snoopy now has a sparkling smile to match his sweet personality 🥰
