A little video from Lola’s groom today

The very handsome Remy came to see me for a bath, fluff dry and face trim today. The pictures are a before and after, he’ll be able to see much better now.

Just a young pup full of energy, getting pictures was tricky 🤣

The lovely Lola came to see me today for a full groom, it was her first groom with me and she was a superstar. She is a Shih Tzu x Bichon

I gave Olive another puppy groom in the salon today, she’s adjusted so well to the baff and the dryer so now we’re working on pads and paw trimming.

Patch came to see me today for the first time, he has a bath, dry, brush out and nail clip. At 18 years old and with cataracts it’s a bit stressful for Patch to cope with a new groomer but with lots of reassurance from his pawparents and me, he did really well today.

A lovely review from Spud and his mum, thank you 🐶🐾

Meet Archie, a very gorgeous cocker spaniel who came for his first full groom with me today.

His guardians wanted him short on his body but with some feathers left on his front legs and his head quite natural because they like his fluffy too and face.

Archie can be a bit nervous so we booked his appointment so that there would be no one after him so we could take our time.

Archie you were a super star today ⭐️

The adorable Muffin was in today for her regular groom. She’s such a sweetheart and so amazing on the grooming table.

She’s not a fan of having her face dried though so her ears are a little damp in the photo.

This is Brick and he’s an older gentlemen in the 🐶 world. Due to his age, he has lots of warts, lumps and bumps so I have to be extra careful when I clip him. Today I did catch a wart slightly on his front leg so I sprayed it with antiseptic spray and informed his humans on collection.

Such a lovely boy 🐶🐾

Many thanks to Archie’s mum for her review, reviews help us small businesses so much.

Archie isn’t a fan of having his legs touched but I work closely with his mum on this and we are always looking at ways to improve Archie’s grooming experience.

★★★★★ "I’ve been bringing Archie to have his hair cut for a while now and he always comes out look lovely. Archie isn’t the easiest dog to groom as he can be a tricky boy. He has parts of his body he’s not keen on being groomed but they work with him and take their time working at hi...

A few pictures put together of the gorgeous Jess who was in a few days ago. I got a lovely cuddle from her before she went home 🥰

It’s that time of year where grass seeds are a real problem for dogs.

Please ensure you check your dogs for grass seeds after walks. When I get back with mine, I check their paws, inbetween their toes, their ears as mine are all spaniels and I run my hands all over their body up and down and the insides of their legs to check for grass seeds.

If your dog is shaking their head a lot, there is a chance one is in their ear canal for which you will need to go to a vet to have this removed.

As a dog groomer, we often find grass seeds in dogs coats when they come for their grooms and we have also found sores on dogs feet where grass seeds have managed to work their way under the skin, we refer owners to take them to vets for it to be checked and removed if necessary.

I made a little video of some photos of when I groomed Louie a couple of days ago.

04/06/2024

My Louie had a full groom today and was bathed in Peanut & Pickle shampoo

Today I tried something different with Louie, when I groom my own dogs I use it to practice my scissor skills and try new things.

Louie has very spindly legs underneath that hair so if I clip him short all over, his legs look like sticks so today I clipped his body and head on the normal length and then I scissored his legs to blend into his body.

I’m always looking to improve my skills by attending workshops, seminars and trying different things.

A before and after of the adorable Jess who came for her first ever big girls groom this morning.

Jess is a Cockerpoo and she’s still a baby at 6 months old. Shes previously had puppy intro with me and today she had a full groom and she was an absolutely ⭐️

She still has puppy coat so I’ve clipped her all over with a long comb attachment and scissored her legs, head and face.

5 years ago, this cute bundle came to live with us from 8 weeks old. We’d never had a dog before and it was all a learning curve for us all.

Lola is now 5 and the most amazing dog we could have ever wished for 🥰

Who knew that 5 years after Lola coming into our lives we would now have Lola, Louie & Olive and that I would be a qualified dog groomer 🙌🏼

Could not be happier 🥰

I have a few appointments left for June, if you would like to discuss your dogs grooming requirements please get in touch.

Can’t wait to try out these new products from Peanut & Pickle

If you bath your dog at home you must make sure you the right products and by that I mean products that are designed for dogs. Human products or worse things like washing up liquid are not good for your dogs skin.

Peanut and Pickle is what I use on my own dogs and in the salon but there are lots of dog shampoos available.

If you would like assistance with what shampoo to buy for those emergency situations at home then please let me know.

Can’t wait to see what is in the Peanut & Pickle goody bag from the training seminar today

I’m terrible at remembering to take any videos of the process but I took a few snippets from Ollie’s recent groom and attempted to put together a little video.

01/06/2024

This is Henry and he is usually a scissor trim cocker spaniel. His mum wanted him shorter today but isn’t sure about having him clipped so I have scissor trimmed him as short as I can.

His mum loves his fluffy Mohawk so we leave that 🥰

Henry isn’t a huge fan of the grooming process and needs time and a lot of comforting throughout the process.

Coco is also a regular visitor in the salon, she’s a Pomeranian. She has a good tidy up when she comes along with of course a bath and dry, but not before she’s had her belly rubs!

01/06/2024

This is Beau and she’s comes for a regular groom to keep on top of her shedding.

01/06/2024

That’s Bailey all done, nice and short for the summer in the hope that soon we see some ☀️

01/06/2024

Bailey is on first and has come in and made herself at home 🥰
