Just a few before and after pictures of deep cleans we have completed using our Emmi-Pet Ultrasonic toothbrush 🪥

This gentle, non-invasive treatment removes built-up plaque and tartar, helping to prevent gum disease, tooth loss, and bad breath.

Regular dental care is essential for your pet’s overall health and happiness.

Remember - good dental health can add YEARS onto their lifespan 🐶

Wow - look at these fantastic results from one of our deep clean sessions!

We have decided to offer all of our customers booked in for grooming appointments for the rest of August and September a FREE teeth cleaning trial!We will clean one tooth completely free of charge and take a before and after photo so that you can see the difference for yourself. This is normally worth £25 and is a great way to see if your dog will tolerate the treatment before commiting to the full service 🐾

Teeth cleaning is something we really enjoy and feel very passionate about here at Hound & Co. The results we get speak for themselves! We are also receiving a lot of vet referrals, as they know we won’t clean anything that actually requires a veterinary dental. It’s great to see local vets raving about the work we are doing 😊

**Important Notice**

At Hound & Co, we work so hard to ensure every dog has the best experience possible. We have built up a 5* reputation in Norwich which we are so proud of.

We are currently facing challenges with customers not adhering to appointment times, including arriving early for their appointments, asking us to complete the groom by a certain time or coming to collect their dogs without waiting for our call or text notification. While we understand that these actions may be intended to help, they actually disrupt our process and can negatively impact the grooming experience for your dog.

Additionally, it puts a massive amount of pressure on myself and the staff. I’ve always tried my best to accommodate everyone, but this is usually at the expense of my own lunch break.

Unfortunately, I have recently been treated for stomach ulcers - the lack of lunch breaks mixed with general business stress has started to take its toll. I’m under STRICT instructions from my doctor to improve this!

To prioritise my health and provide the best care going forward, we will now require between 2-4 hours for each dog. This time allows for essential breaks:
- **Arrival**: 10-15 minutes to relax before grooming begins.
- **Post-Bath**: 10-30 minutes of rest before styling.
- **Post-Grooming**: 15 minutes of downtime before collection.

During this time, we may also need to attend to other customers, clean up accidents, or give extra attention to dogs who are having an off day etc. Arriving early for appointments or to collect your dog without notification can lead to unfinished grooming and potential accidents due to the dog's excitement. Dog grooming is a delicate and demanding job that requires a calm environment for both the groomer and the dog.

From now on, if you arrive early for your appointment, please wait patiently or take your dog for a walk until their scheduled time. We will not be available until the allotted time.

Please wait for our call or text to inform you that your dog is ready for pickup. Please do not turn up unannounced. If you do need your dog ready by a certain time, please tell us at least 3 days in advance so we can plan the day accordingly.

Thankyou so much for your cooperation!

🐾 Dog sitter recommendations 🐾

I was wondering if any of our lovely clients had any dog sitter recommendations?!

I’m getting married in Spain next year and looking for a home away from home with someone trustworthy to look after my boy Finley from the 6th-15th June 2025.

He’s a bit of an old, loveable sod 😂😂. He will be 10 next year and really does just love to sleep all day. He’s a classic beagle and will steal food from coffee tables etc if given half a chance. He gets on with some dogs but not all so an only pet household or someone with a pet he can meet beforehand would be ideal (you know within 5 minutes whether he gets on with a dog or not)

Someone familiar with beagles should find him very easy as he will sleep most of the day and provide the best cuddles in the evening ❤️. He’s also crate trained at night.

I’d like to do several practice visits over the next year to make sure he’s happy 🐾

The picture below pretty much sums him up 😂⬇️
