The handsome Digby 🤎

Had to post 😍

07/09/2024

Welcome Winston 🤎

Winston is not a massive fan of grooming. He’s not aggressive but given half the chance he’d be out of that bath and off that table in a flash. Sat like a pro for his nail trim though! We’re all different 😅 Welcome aboard Winston!

Winston endured a shampoo, blueberry facial, blow-dry and full deshed, skin and coat oil rub, paw balm massage and a good old ear clean. Poor Winston 😆

Welcome Lula 🤎

I’ll have to get better pictures of Lula next time. There’s a lot of her to manage so once we were out of the bath, picture taking went a bit out of the window today!

Lula is an enormous gentle giant. She does love to lay down though and at 11.5 stone it wasn’t easy holding her up to do her underneath! Working out in the gym for this job is definitely a good idea!! Haha! Well done Lula! And me! 💪 Lovely to meet you 🥰

Welcome Macey!!! 🤎

Macey is a Greater Swiss Mountain Dog

I am a SUCKER for a big dog. All 60+ kg of her!! I absolutely loved meeting and grooming Macey today. She was a bit nervous at first but about half way through there was a shift and she seemed to start to trust me. We still need to build her confidence with her ears and feet but we will get there. She was very playful and happy in the yard after we were done. Pretty sure I won her over! 😃

Theo Cash and Pebbles 🤎

Had to post these 3 again… especially as Pebbles is modelling such a beautiful necklace from .dogbowbooth 🎀

A pleasure to groom these guys again today. They’ve all had the full works, including facials, paw massages, skin and coat oil rubs and bath and trim ups of course!

Can’t wait to see you all again… well done gang!!

03/09/2024

Welcome Rudy 🤎

Rudy is a Wire Fox Terrier. He was a good boy today for his first visit although didn’t want his nails doing so it’s a good thing he wears them down well himself! I thoroughly enjoyed doing another different cut on Rudy today. Great to get more styles on the grid! Well done Rudy, lovely to meet you! 🫶

Welcome Arctus 🤎

The CUTEST little thing came into the salon today 😍

The name Arctus comes from the Ancient Greek word Arktos which means “Bear” and what an absolutely ridiculously adorable little bear he is!!

A pleasure to welcome him into the fam!

30/08/2024

Welcome Scruff 🤎

Scruff is a lovely boy. He’s a little nervous and there’s some things he’s not keen on but we got there. We’re learning to trust each other. I think we’re going to have a good relationship. Welcome on board Scruff!
🇬🇧😎

Welcome Humphrey! 🤎

Humphrey’s first visit today was just for a bath and tidy, although with his fur that’s no small job!

He has a beautiful thick coat that needed a double shampoo and of course he had a blueberry facial to top it.

Then after drying his ears and feet for approximately 2 business days 😂 and doing some trimming, he was all tidied up and ready to see for some lovely fresh cuddles 🤗🤗🤗

A Bath & Tidy includes:• Cleanse, shampoo & condition • Blueberry facial • Brush & Blowdry • Sanitary areas tidy • Feet tidy • Underpaws clipped out • Nail trim • Ear clean • Ear Pluck • Thornit powder dusting

17/08/2024

Welcome Dora 🤎

Dora is adorable! Those spaniel faces make me melt. Dora’s sister is Lexie, who I also groom. I can definitely tell they are sisters. Their behaviours are almost the same. Lovely to have the both of them in the fam!

14/08/2024

Welcome Doug 🤎

Doug is a young English Bulldog who came for his first professional groom today. He was a little nervous of the dryer so I made some adjustments to suit him better until he was more comfortable and gave him lots of reassurance and he did just great!

Doug had a bath and a blueberry facial, a good deshed, a nail trim, ear clean and thornit powder, a skin and coat conditioning oil rub and a paw balm massage. The works!! He went home tip top!

Well done Doug! See you again soon!

Well what can I say!!

It is because of this group of women that my life has taken a whole new direction

This vivacious, inspiring community of women in business, created by has empowered me to do things with my business and my personal life that not long ago I’d have written off as just “too much” for me

I had a breakdown 9 years ago. After years of being unwell some really bad stuff happened and I nearly died. Then, after years of therapy and recovery and keeping life small and quiet, I found dog grooming. I cried tears of joy over it. Often. I had finally found something I felt really passionate about and I was a natural at. It was the icing on the cake of my recovery

Then Marfa’s mutts was born

The first year was pretty slow and filled with a lot of anxiety and certainly a lack of confidence. Working alone is not easy when staff morale is low

One day a message from a random Kate Livermore dropped into my DMs, inviting me to the launch of her new networking group called Ladies Let’s Business.
I went along, unsure what to expect but as soon as I met Kate I knew she was just a super genuine person, intent on creating a safe space for women to network and connect

Well I have not looked back since. Not only have I enjoyed every event, I have also been working my way around the group, exploring all of the delicious things these entrepreneurs have to offer. Iv gained clients from it and more importantly friends. Really friendly, supportive, funny, intelligent, beautiful people.

These women have no idea how much they have stepped my life up a gear. I’m hitting whole new levels that I didn’t even know I was aiming for.

Now Marfa’s Mutts is taking off in a big way and so am I!!

I’ve even nabbed as my PT! And been to a gym!!! WHO AM I???? 🤣

Thank you so much you lovely lot for being just what I didn’t know I needed in my life 😘

I can’t tag them all because there’s too many now. Kate has built such a huge community that is still growing, I know I will miss someone out. I hope this post reaches all of them though and I hope they know how much I LOVE EM!! 🫶

OMG I am in love with Bernie!!! 🤎

This was his first time with me today and I loved every minute of it. What a beautiful boy. He’s a little nervous of grooming but with patience and good communication he was good as gold. It took a lot for me to not just cuddle him for 2 hours though!! 🤗

04/08/2024

So yesterday a bunch of party guests turned up to what we thought was a 50th birthday party.

As we all arrived we were told that actually Sally and Paul are getting married today and we are all to head to the beautiful little church just down the road to watch them tie the knot!!

We were all shocked and speechless and very emotional…. But also absolutely buzzing to be at our friends surprise wedding day!!!

Sally and I and Shelby completed our dog grooming diplomas together at Writtle University college a few years ago and have remained the best of friends ever since

I speak to Sally almost every day. We have our own dog grooming businesses now and we work mostly alone so having other groomers to call for advice, reassurance or just to chew the fat with about work stuff, to me is SO important

This woman is the biggest inspiration, support and provider of laughs that anyone could wish for. I honestly wouldn’t be the groomer I am or have the confidence to do so many things regarding my business, if I didn’t have Sally in my life.

Our friendship has become one of my most cherished friendships and from the minute I met her fiancé Paul I knew he was cut from the same cloth as Sally, would be there if I was in trouble and is literally the best person to look after my friend for the rest of both of their lives.

I’m so proud to have been invited to be part of their surprise special day and can say hand on heart that I have never felt so speechless as when this wedding was announced 😂

It was such a beautiful day filled with beautiful people and so much joy….. and boy do we need more joy in the world right now.

Congratulations to my beautiful friends Mr and Mrs Williams. I don’t have to hope, because I know you are going to have the best lives together and I am just so privileged to have you both in mine.

I literally couldn’t do any of this without you. I love and appreciate you more than you can ever know. Keep being the special person that you are and never EVER leave me!!! 💖

Welcome Buddy 🤎

Buddy is a lively 1 year old cockerpoo. He came in for the first time today, ready for a spa day and left feeling all soft and cuddly! Well done Buddy!

Welcome Cash Theo & Pebbles 🤎

Lovely to meet these 3 gentle souls today

30/07/2024

Welcome to Marfa’s Mutts 🤎

Here’s a few slides to tell you a little bit about me and what I have to offer

I aim primarily to provide the most chilled and luxurious experience for your furry best friend
because lets be honest, they deserve nothing but the best!

29/07/2024

Welcome Loli 🤎

Loli came for an introduction to grooming last week. She was taken on by her current owners at 4 years old and had never had a professional groom before. She did amazingly and this time we managed a full groom. Well done Loli. She’s pretty chill ✌️

She’s rebooked for her next groom in 8 weeks time and she’s booked in for an ultrasound teeth clean in 2 weeks. Her new owners are doing her proud!

27/07/2024

Welcome Dudley & Digby 🤎

These 2 boys are very nervous of grooming. They also have the strongest bond and don’t like to be apart. Dudley wasn’t too happy about Digby being up on the table without him so he came up too which set his mind at rest. Both were full of beans and asking for treats once we were finished. They went home happy little sausages with lovely shiny coats from their skin and coat conditioning oil rubs 😄

25/07/2024

Ginny 🤎

24/07/2024

Welcome Sunny 🤎

Sunny is 13 years old and not too sure how he feels about grooming. With a little patience and a gentle approach though he was ok. He left trimmed, glossy and happy 🥰

22/07/2024

Welcome Bentley 🤎

Bentley was very overdue a groom due to recent unforeseen circumstances for his owner but he left Marfa’s Mutts feeling much lighter and ready for the summer weather.

It was a big long job as he had a lot of matting, so we took it at a steady pace and I gave him some breaks. He came in very calm and lay down on the table a lot while I did some of the clipping. As the hair and matting came away, he started to come to life and bounced back to his owner with a new spring in his step

It was his first visit today and he’s booked in again to keep him ship shape from now on. Good work Bentley

15/07/2024

Welcome Wolsey 🤎

Wolsey is 14 years old and although he is nervous of being groomed, he allows things to happen without a fuss. Gold star for Wolsey 🌟

15/07/2024

Bella & Aria 🤎

These girls are adorable. This was their second visit to Marfa’s Mutts. The first visit Bella barked and howled the whole time Aria was being groomed. What a protective sister! This time she was much more comfortable and just had a lay down on a soft bed while I worked with Aria. She saved her howls for right near the end as my dad came down the garden 😆 Which at least saved my ears during her sister’s groom!

Well done girls! 😁

15/07/2024

Winter 🤎

Winter is a rescue and she can be nervous. Iv groomed her several times now. This time however she showed that she is gaining confidence and coming out of her shell. I love to see this happen with rescue dogs. Settling into their new lives and realising they are safe and able to express themselves
Well done Winter 🥰

11/07/2024

Welcome Paris 🤎

Paris is a Jack Russell cross Yorkshire Terrier. First time with me today and what a treat. A lovely natured girl. She has sensitive feet…. But who hasn’t to be honest! Pleasure to meet you Paris 😄

07/07/2024

Piper 🤎

Piper comes in with her little sister Millie, who’s a bit nervous.

Piper is the opposite. She enjoys being groomed because she just LOVES attention.

She runs into my little yard and wants a fuss, when she arrives. Such a happy trusting little soul and a pleasure to groom 💖

This time we listened to some of the football on the radio together 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 with Millie keeping a close eye on her sister from the floor 😄

06/07/2024

Millie 🤎

Millie is quite nervous and is not a fan of a few things, like combs ☺️ This is the third time I have groomed her though now and it feels like she’s easing in and starting to trust me. Well done Millie 🥰

Winnie came for her second visit to Marfa’s Mutts today, which should have just been a bath & tidy. Winnie is such a chilled and trusting pup though that we managed a bath, dry and her first all over clip. What a superstar!! 🌟With puppies we are never aiming for the perfect cut. The most important thing is easing them into the process at their own pace and making sure that grooming is a positive experience for themWinnie is settling in amazingly and seems to trust me already This job is so rewarding at times like this.

Welcome Roo & Dafney 🤎 What a pleasure to groom these 2 lovelies today. Roo is 14 and not so hot on sight or hearing anymore but she is super chill and affectionate none the less.

Welcome Winnie 🤎 Winnie came for her first introduction to grooming today. This included: • A good sniff around the salon • An introduction to tools and sounds with positive associations • Nail trim • Brush out • Clear eyes • Pads clip • Ear clean • Play and cuddle time We want puppies to feel as happy as possible about coming back for the next stage…. Bath & Tidy This sort of introduction is only possible if the pup’s fur is in good condition and not matted. We dont want pup’s first visit to a groommer to be a shave off because of matting. This can ruin your dogs experience of grooming for the future and a breed like this WILL need regular grooming for their whole life Get your pup booked into a groomer for groom training, as soon as they have had their vaccinations. It is the best way to keep your pup happy with grooming and their coat in good condition for life . . . . . . . . . . #doggroomer #doggrooming #dogmum #dogdad #essexdogs #leighonsea #leighonsealife #smallbusinessowner #supportsmallbusiness #dogoftheday #doggroomersoftiktok #salonlife #holistic #puppylove #puppy
