Hi fur people,

Could I please just ask everyone to only arrive or collect at the time you’re given so if you’re in at 10 please come at 10 not 1/4 to, being early is obviously great and much better than being late of course but dog grooming is a bit different where you can’t just quietly sit and wait like you can at the hairdressers, I don’t think a lot of people realise how long it takes to settle a dog and when their appointments are interrupted towards the end this will mean that yours won’t run to time either. Similarly please do not arrive to pick up early and stand in the window waving at your dog or just breeeze straight in while they’re likely having their eyes and face trimmed, what can seem like an innocent thing is actually a very stressful experience for a dog. It takes a lot of skill to calm and relax a dog and when this is interrupted it can really stress them out.

Thanks so much for your understanding 🤍

Utterly obsessed with Nellie, this afternoon I cooked up the perfect plan, do her hair, act casual, take her home, close shop, vanish, never to be seen again…but then I remembered she belongs to my cousins 🥲 sigh, she is tooooooooo beautiful 😍😍😍

Breeds that cannot swim: a good read at this soggy time of year 😢

***Awareness Post***

We've had two requests to search for dogs recently. Sadly they've drowned and at this time of year they have resurfaced before we could get there, leaving their owners with a traumatic task of recovering them.

There are a number of breeds that CANT SWIM or are POOR SWIMMERS. They can sink very quickly and with best efforts to save them it is often not possible.

You rarely get a second chance with water.

Your dog may never have shown an interest in water, or may just paddle. But dogs are instinct reactive and it only takes one accident.

Please don't take the risk. Please keep breeds that are known to be poor swimmers on a lead near water. At least then you have a chance of saving them.

Some of the breeds most known that can't swim/poor swimmers and most at risk are...

• French Bulldogs
• English Bulldogs
• Pocket Bully's
• Pugs
• Dachshunds
• Boxers
• Shih Tzu's
• Basset Hounds
• Corgi's
• Maltese

Heartbreaking RIP Louise, Hannah & Carol 💔

The dog grooming industry has lost a young and talented dog groomer who was needlessly murdered alongside her sister and mother. The dog grooming community is large but we all support one another and all feel this senseless loss 💗

Our thoughts and hearts are with the Hunt family at this terrible and tragic time ###

‼️ NEW LOCATION 1ST JULY 🐩🤍🔥

It’s finally time to tell you that the salon will have a new location from Monday 1st July 2024 🥳

📍36A Cowper Street, M24 2FE

The new salon is approximately 9 minutes from the current Royton location and I can’t wait for you to see it.

Work has started today to make this already amazing space perfect to continue to make your dogs look and feel gorgeous. I’m so lucky to have my Dad and Boyfriend who will be doing all of the manual labour and heavy lifting - with me being project manager of course 👷🏻‍♀️ Today we are installing a fan on the external wall.

I’ve had the most amazing couple of years in the centre of Royton and such a lovely little salon but I’m excited for what’s next for me and the doggies and I hope you will follow my journey with me.

The quality and standard of grooms will stay the same, just in a new exciting location 😍

…more updates to follow including Open Day date and time 🥂 please come and have a nosey if you’re passing!

Lots of love,
Melissa ###

Something a bit different from me today but in all of the excitement of being so busy I forgot to tell you that during April my little salon in Royton turned 2️⃣ !!!

I’m still not sure how I escaped the rat race and made this my full time thing but thank you to everyone who continues to come and see me with your beautiful dogs, I really am so lucky to have such a wonderful client base and each and every one of you is absolutely gorgeous, I love nothing more than catching up with you every 6-8 weeks.

We’re now booking for June and advising everyone to book your next two ahead in time for the summer (if we get one 🤣).

For now here’s a photo of me with (some) of my dogs where I’m looking considerably better than I ever do at work 😂❤️🐾

Thank you again 😘😘
