Bit late to the party but been so quiet on the socials. Back in May me and Jasmine competed at the Great British Grooming Show and bagged a 2nd place in our class. She's a lovely little girl🥰

First post in a little while. As always my schedule is crazy hectic, and on Monday, I was in Kent shooting a grooming guide to the Bedlington terrier. I had the pleasure of grooming the lovely Wellington. The video will be released to the Groomers Gallery later in the year. Just wanted to apologise for my lack of replies, struggling to keep up with demand, and the ever growing list of messages and missed calls are getting a bit too much if I'm honest. I'm grateful but struggling with it at the minute. I'll be sitting with my diary this afternoon to get back to a lot of people. Please be patient I'm trying here🙈❤️

Hello everyone. Id like to start off by saying Happy New Year to you all. I hope you all had a lovely christmas and new year whatever you were up to. Our house has been full of the lurgy! I started feeling ill Christmas eve and still illl now! Not sure whats going on but Ive really bloody had enough of this now. I was hoping to have shared this post over christmas but I really havent felt up to it nor have I got done half of what I was supposed to. Typical to be ill the entirety of my time off.

So anyway, I want to keep it as short and sweet as possible so thought it would be easier to post like this. I understand this may affect some people and today I will contact people who are already booked to confirm they are happy with the new price. I appreciate some people may not be okay with that and I dont want anyone to feel like they have their hands tied. As always prices are based on 6-8 week schedule. Dogs going over 10 weeks (unless stated by myself) will be classed as a restyle groom and charged a restyle price. Prices are all estimates and the condition of the coat, style requested, size and behaviour of dog are all contributing factors that determine the final price. I will be (should have sorted over xmas but another thing ive been unable to get done) posting a simple price list to make things easier for this year and any new clients wanting to book. For now please contact me and I will confirm the new price for you.

A few things that I can share now
Nails - £10
Eye trim - £10
Flea charge - £20 (more in severe cases)
Dematting - from £5 for specific areas (tail or ears)
- full shave down from £25 on top of normal price
As always anything I deem as too severe will be shaved off, the dogs welfare is in my interest only. Not the hair style.

If anyone has any questions please dont hesitate to contact me, I know Ive not responded over the xmas period but its the only time ive had off to myself the entire year! Ive got a busy morning but this afternoon I will be sitting with my phone and diary replying to everyone.

As always, thank you for your continued support for my little business and thank you for your patience. Much love, Nancy x

I will cherish these photos forever. Rob is brilliant at what he does and we had such a laugh at this photoshoot. Chuffed is an understatement💕
