Happy 4th birthday Dipper 🎈🎂

Bank holiday weekend is upon us 🙌 and Koko is giving us her best bank holiday smile 🩶

Beautiful Koko visited me for a groom. Her coat type needs regular bathing and de shedding. Koko is quite frightened of the dryer, so I’ve advised frequent appointments with gentle introductions to the dryer should help her build confidence

Will take this moment to add as from 1st September I will be on my holidays and back week commencing 16th September

There are only a handful of appointments left for September

Last bank holiday before Christmas guys 🙀 let’s make most of it

Let’s talk about nails for a moment 👀💅…..

Hope visited me for a groom recently and as you can see she had extremely overgrown nails

When nails aren’t cut, they grow and grow. When nails grow like this and get so long, they push back into the foot which as you can imagine, would have been agonising. If this had been left, Hope’s feet would have started to become deformed

Hope’s nails had started to curl outwards to accommodate the pressure whenever she stood/walked. When nails aren’t cut regularly, the quick grows long with the nail too. The ‘quick’ is groomer speak for the blood vessel dogs have in their nails. The longer the quick, the less nail we are able to cut off, otherwise you cut into the blood vessel, which obviously hurts the dog and bleeds. Regular nail trims keep the quick short and allows us to trim off as much as we can.

Luckily for Hope, her quick hadn’t grown out with the nails, so I was able to cut them back a fair bit.

Nails should be trimmed every 6 weeks or so. Entirely depends on how active your dog is, (if fairly active then nails should be trimmed by the environment from walking etc) but all dogs are different and nail growth speed will differ between each dog

A very satisfying nail trim and Hope felt visibly more happy and comfortable 😌

Lady giving the cutest puppy loaf I’ve ever seen 🥰🖤

Lady visited me for a full groom. It was her first time with me and Lady is a collie x cavalier and had a really long fluffy coat. Which was proving to be quite high maintenance to keep brushing. This particular mix of coat types aren’t usually shaved. However Lady is 8 years old and to keep her comfortable, especially during the summer months I was only happy to help out.
Especially around her bottom, please see pics 4/5. I tidied up her sanitary area so she is now able to toilet without soiling her fur 🖤

Can’t tell by the photos but Lady has a beautiful full tail and I balanced her out by keeping her cute floppy ears fluffy and bouncy 🥰

Lady is also a rescue pup from Ireland and I really enjoyed my time with her. Very placid and calm girl and I am so glad she is now living her best pup life

Cutie pie Milo setting the weekend mood… chill vibes✌️😌

Milo had his first big boy groom with me. He was ready for an all over trim so I gave him a nice puppy style still leaving his fur long and teddy bear like 🧸

He done so well for his first groom with me and am very much looking forward to seeing him next week 🥰

Milo is already blessed with beautiful long eyelashes I cannot wait to see how long they grow 🥹

🪻🤍 Sweet little Dudu 🤍🪻

I saw Dudu at my local doggy park and handed my business card to his lovely mummy. I hoped to hear from her and was so glad she booked in 🥰

As you can see Dudu’s coat needed to be seen by a professional. Dudu is a Pomeranian/Spitz mix, and their coats are very high maintenance. What you see in the first couple of pics is a compacted undercoat. Not matted! This happens from his undercoat becoming loose and not being removed properly. Daily brushing & combing maintenance avoids this.

So with Dudu all he needed was some anti tangle spray and gentle brushing/teasing away of his compacted undercoat. Dudu tolerated this very well and as you can see his coat underneath was absolutely beautiful 🤩 the before and after is 🤯👌

Dudu really is so so cute, I really enjoyed working with him and can’t wait to see him again💝

My summer flower display is now ON and I am absolutely LOVING the purple wisteria

Being a dog grooming stylist
means I work with specialist equipment

Here you see Miss Chi Chi next my 6.5” Asian fusion green curved scissors, which I used to sculpt her feet. Alongside is my gold Sunset fluffing Comb. This combo is *chefs kiss* 😘

Second picture you see my other specialist combs, in order from top to bottom are:

•Wave comb
- game changer 🤩 the curve of this comb makes accessing awkward angles much easier and aids lifting the coat to scissor the coat easier (teddy bear legs etc)

• Fluffing comb
- great for lifting large volumes of coat up for sc******ng ✂️

• Delta curved comb
- amazing for lifting and rounding up fur on faces & heads to aid me scissor a gorgeous round head

• Lastly my sunset comb
- Also excellent for muzzle work

Can we paws for a minute and gawk over how BEAUTIFUL Rocky’s coat is after his de shedding ?! 🤩😍

Rocky is a Shiba Inu and has an immensely dense coat which needs de shedding frequently. As you can see I was able to physically pluck his loose coat which is a sure sign that he is ready for a good and satisfying blow out 🥰

The third pic of me you can see me absolutely covered in Rockys hair 😄 got SOO much hair out!! This type of groom I find really satisfying to do. The before and after is just 👌
His coat is a beautiful orange colour 🍊 and Rocky loves his pampering with me he always feels so handsome and happy afterward 😍👍

Daphne 🧸

Daphne is a Schnoodle and is a shy little lady. I have seen Daphne three times now and she has grown a lot of confidence in herself. A one to one grooming salon really suits her down to the ground. Some dogs thrive and thoroughly enjoy a busy salon with loads of other dogs and staff to mingle with, distraction and fun. There are also dogs out there whom are more introverted, placid and calm. Who may struggle in a busy salon environment, this is where one to one groomers like myself can help 😌

Daphnes tail is an obvious indicator of her wellbeing. After her groom, her tail is up, wagging and her expression soft and happy. Her hair appointments with me continue to help her confidence grow, anxiety shrinking and just generally helping her learn that grooming can be a positive thing 🥰

See you soon sweety 🩷

Can’t handle Luna’s beauty 😍😄

Gaining a dogs trust is one of the best feelings in the world 😌 so proud of Luna’s progress 💖

How a dog grooming appointment should go ☝️😌 Maltese pups Sheldon & Woody have been visiting me for the past 7 months now every month. Maltese pups have very high maintenance coats so a monthly visit is necessary to keep them knot free and happy They are both very used to me now and our routine. Sheldon being the eldest goes first. I like to have the elders go first because it lets the younger siblings watch what goes on and as Sheldon is such a good boy for his grooming he leads a very good example to his baby brother Woody Both boys are really well behaved for me and cooperative which is so important to achieve a nice style for them. I always make sure I interact with them during their groom and give positive feedback and praise. Your doggies groomer should be an important person in their life as grooming is a very trusting and bonding relationship we have with your pet 💛✂️ Look at how calm and cooperative they are when I scissor their faces 😍 just amazing. Dogs are amazing. See you soon my dudes 🤍🤍 #maltese #maltesepuppy #doggrooming

Doggies make my world go round… look hard enough and you’ll find love everywhere 🥰

Doggies make my world go round.. look close enough you’ll find love everywhere 🥰❤️🐾

Rest in peace Misty

🌈The hardest part of being a dog groomer is saying goodbye. Misty was my hero. I was lucky to be her groomer for her last 2 years and she taught me so much. She was a rescue and had an abusive past. Misty showed us what forgiveness to a species that previously abused her looks like. Like I said, my hero. I will never forget Misty, I trust that she is running around up there pain free 🌈🐾🪽

When the affection is mutual 🩷 I have been grooming Chi Chi for 3 years now and we have a really lovely bond. Chi and I will often pause like this during her appointment for no other reason than to just be sweet to each other. And I just love that 🥹

🤍 Millie 🤍 Millie & I have been catching up like this since her puppyhood, every 4 weeks. She is such a little darling 🥰 Her coat is the whitest coat I’ve ever seen! Amazing 🤩 Millie is loved by all who meets her and I am so lucky to be her groomer 🥹💖 #maltipoo #doggrooming #doggroomer #ilovemyjob #happiness

👏 What your groomer wants to see when your long fluffy dog is on their table 👌 🧢 Hats OFF to my amazing clients that keep their long fluffy dogs coats brushed out & maintained and stick to a 4-5 weekly grooming schedule 🥳 This daily brushing & regular scheduled appointments enables your groomer a chance to style your dog and provide a happy and positive experience, as there’s no brushing out any painful knots when your fur babies go to see your groomer. A frequent routine also installs familiarity for your pet and builds a healthy & happy relationship between your pet and their groomer 😌🫶 #thankyou #doggrooming #doggroomer #noknots #coatmaintenance @stacey_bovill @mrsmumandbaby 🫶

Dogs are the masters at forgiveness… Misty is 16 years old is a survivor of abuse… Thankfully now living out her twilight years in a loving home 🏡 after suffering trauma from the hands that should have cared for her she has such a gentle temperament… She blows my mind every time I groom her. ❤️‍🩹 #survivor #seniordog #rescue #forgiveness #dogsareamazing

For Sooty 🖤 #kind #fortheloveofdogs

De shed Misty with me 😌❣️ these types of grooms are so satisfying… Misty is 16 years old and so wonderful to groom… one lucky groomer here 🥰 #deshedding #doggrooming #doggroomer #ilovemyjob

Hi everyone! Wow finally got some signal down here 😅 I am currently on holidays with my fiancé down in Cornwall, my spiritual home 🐾🔮🌊🌅🐬🦀 So amazing how welcome man’s best friend is down here, including food & clothes shops. Love seeing dogs running around and playing on the beach too ❤️🐶❤️ Any messages I will reply to when I can (signal is pretty hard to come by where we are staying) or I will reply when I am back in the salon next week! ✂️🛁

Sometimes it’s good to just lay down and watch the world go by. This is Lottie, who is in her senior years now. I appreciate every minute I get with her 😌 #dog #dogsofinstagram #

Just a quick video to demonstrate long coated, double coated breeds. This is Biscuit the long haired border collie. Here you can see the dryer on his body, the fur and individual hairs are separate and I can see through to the skin after I have groomed that area - then as I point the dryer over his hind leg you can see the clumps of pelted fur stuck near the skin. Unless this is cleared and groomed out; Biscuit wouldn’t be able to regulate his temperature properly. It would lead to his coat becoming matted, further leading to skin infections and so on. His owners take exceptional care of his coat in between grooming; fur like this deep down to his skin needs to be seen by a professional groomer. Biscuits coat was so bouncy and soft after this treatment, and it feels great knowing he can keep cool in this seemingly never ending heatwave! 🥵 😎 #longhairedbordercollie #bordercollie #doggrooming #doggroomer #dog

Toy poodle Bear I have been grooming Bear since he was a very wee pup, every 5 weeks, for the past 2 years now. Bear is always so happy for his appointments, as you can see 🥰 #toypoodle #toypoodlelove #doggrooming #doggroomer @apoodlecalledbear
