###EXCITING TIMES! ###
While I have been recovering, my wonderful husband has been so busy giving my work space a much needed face-lift bringing my vision to life, offering a luxurious space your dogs come for a pamper and if you request it a reiki session too. I started my Reiki healing journey in 2011 and my spiritual gifts have been with me since I was a child, I have been studying for years to enhance it and develop it to be able to share my gift with you!
I have created a larger area at the front and selected some of my most prized possessions to display and share the other side of me with you. This area can be used as healing space for your dog and even you!. From April you will be able to request a 30 minute add on to a groom of Reiki for your dog for just Β£15 , I will feed back to you anything I pick up spiritually, physically, mentally. Don't be afraid to ask about any of this when you come in, I am always happy to talk about it and can't wait to share it.... finally β€οΈ
I will go live at some point to talk things through with you and show you my vision. Hope you love the new space as much as I do β€οΈπΎ
When you struggle to get your dogs out....... what better way to keep them entertained! π₯°β€οΈπΎ
This year we will be out and about once again with our fabulous pick and mix natural treats and other goodies.... here's some dates for your diary, hope to see you all there π β€οΈπΎ
2024 was a tough year for so many people so much loss and sadness, as always I have to honour those gone this year , Losing lovely clients is really hard, especially when I have groomed them all their lives and known them for so many years, I still miss ones from years ago. Loss for me Included 2 of our very own which has literally felt like my heart has been torn out, we miss them every day and I think I always will. It also saw the loss of a very beautiful lady, Ann, she was one of my very first customers when I set up in 2008, she was amazing, a lovely, bubbly, full of life soul who had the kindest heart, sadly she passed away this year. π
Although it's been a hard year, we have to try and hold onto the positives and take those with us into 2025 and hopefully start the new year as we mean to go on.... I wish you all a very Happy New Year and hoping 2025 is kind to us all. Lots of love from me and my gang β€οΈπΎπ₯
This week is crazy and I am just about getting through so thankyou everyone for being supportive and understanding. It's a struggle not going to lie and i wanted to post something for our girl days ago but , I honestly have struggled to even look at photos since losing our special girl, this has hit us so so hard, It's taken me this long to even write this because I can't believe she's gone. It doesn't feel real but I needed to honour Daisy and share some beautiful memories . Daisy came into our lives 11.5 years ago when a good friend of mines dog had given birth to a beautiful litter of pups, we went to see them and immediately Daisy picked Chris, it was love at first sight , little did he know I decided there and then to get her for his upcoming birthday.
We struggled with a name but one day Chris was driving home from London, we were on the phone and both said we had an idea for a name, we said after 3 say the name..... we both said "Daisy"! Never discussed it, never mentioned it, from that day on she became our crazy Daisy β€οΈ
Daisy had the absolute best character, loyal to the core, ouzing with love for us and anyone she met, she was my original shop dog and would greet everyone who came in, anyone who met her, instantly loved her. She was a good girl, never a problem, hardly knew she was there half the time, never barked unless there was a real reason to bark. She was accepting and tolerant with every new dog that has come into our lives, absolutely adored Maggie and mothered her, she would have made a great Mummy, even taught Penny how to go outside to toilet, she really took Penny under her wing when we took her in. Penny is lost without her & Jasper, her 2 teachers.
Her favourite things were the seaside, snow and her Daddy, always by Chris's side, his soul dog , his office is going to feel very empty but I know she will still lay there next to him while he's working.
We made some amazing memories with Daisy as we try to do with all our dogs. She w
Video message from me as I just needed to talk rather than keep texting everything. Truthfully this is so hard so please bear with me, I am sorry if I have depressed anyone but I am just being me and being real. ππΎ

Excuse the heavy, baggy eyes.... been a tough few days.
Our hearts are broken and I can't believe I am writing this, very suddenly and out of nowhere it was time for our boy , he was absolutely fine the day before and barking for treats , yet it was time to make the hardest yet kindest decision and let our boy go with the dignity he always had. All such a shock, Our brave, Gentleman Jasper.... it doesn't seem real... π’
We will miss you every single day Jasper especially meal times, they will be so quiet now, you would bark until you got your food, I was never ready for Jasper to come into my life as I had never had a boy, he was hard work and I remember my friend telling me to be patient because he would be the most loyal boy and by God she was right, I was so lucky to be loved by him and thankful he chose me that day. Jasper came into my life at such a dark time and although he was so naughty, I believe he was sent to me to distract my thoughts and keep my mind away from the dark side, he definitely brought the light , He literally saved me and for that I will be forever grateful.
I have hundreds if not thousands of photos of Jasper as he was so photogenic, loved a dress up and we did so much together, so to choose a few was hard.
Run free my always number 1 boy , reunited with your girls, I made sure you had a pair of my socks for your journey , we will love you for eternity ππΎ
Here's a little poem I wrote in memory of our boy.... always in our hearts πππΎπ
"Our Kids have Four Paws and Fur πΎβ€οΈ"
For our boy .....
Jasper Man, Jassy J , our little Eyyore but to me you were always my boy....
The one who brought so much joy..
You came into my life unplanned, saved me at such a tough time
But once your mischievous character started to shine,
You made me smile again when I thought I couldn't.
But there were lots of things you did that you really shouldn't!
My ball loving, sock thief you were a pro...
Then again as long as it was mine anything would go!
You were so naughty when you w
Here I am again! ππΎπ
