The lovely Bobby...previously he's was a very reactive dog at the groomers. I've worked with him, gone at his pace - he still occasionally tells me off in a very polite way but now he flies in and instantly wants to jump up on the table for treats !! He often snoozes whilst being groomed and absolutely LOVES his face being washed π€·ββοΈ you're such a dude Bobby ππ«Ά
Ralph & Pippa.... ππ§‘
Both looking super smart and feeling super fresh β¨οΈ

I love how Lucy's spotty coat appears when she has been clipped π§‘
Always try and pay attention to what is happening inside your dogs mouth πͺ₯π¦·π
Letβs squash this myth π΅οΈ
Dog breath isnβt always an βold dog thingβ, which for many can be the assumed thing. Just like us, cats and dogs can experience dental issues that require attention.
Take a moment to assess your pet's breath. If it's less than pleasant, it could be a red flag for dental issues such as gum disease, plaque build up, or tooth decay.
If youβve noticed any new dental symptoms in your pet, contact us today.

Good work team Wednesday πΎβοΈπ©
Every little penny helps. If you can support myself and my veterinary colleagues with the smallest donation, we would be very greatful π
A TEAM of York vets, veterinary nurses and receptionists are under starterβs orders for next monthβs Great North Run.
The lovely Willow had her first full groom today. What a star she was π
Starting introductions to grooming as soon as the initial vaccination course is completed really does help your pup accept and flourish in a grooming environment.
Willows owners really look after her coat well at home with daily grooming. Good work team Willow π

π I've had lots of enquiries whilst I've had my week away...I'm still not quite back yet there has been some delays... I will get back to you all hopefully tomorrow when I get the chance to check the diary. Please bear with me. Thanks ! ππ
π₯π₯ I shall be keeping a very close eye on temperatures this week. If it becomes too unsafe to groom your dog I may have to reschedule your groom π₯π₯
THINGS TO CONSIDER
* groom times may need to be brought forward to avoid higher temperatures mid day.
* Please do not walk your dog to their appointment.
* Use air con in your car if available.
* Drying is the longest and hottest part of the groom. Therefore curly/longer haired breeds are higher risk.
* Bracycephalic breeds are high risk.
* The old and the young are high risk.
* Grooming equipment becomes hotter more quickly (clippers, blades, dryers)
* Dogs (and your groomer π) may have less tolerance in heat π₯΅
Lastly....HUMANITY OVER VANITY π
Thanks as always for your understanding π§‘π
π§‘𧑠GOOD MORNING !! Regulars.... have you booked your next few grooms in?? If not then please do so. This then allows me to plan and organise the diary and see if there are spaces available to offer to new, incoming clients. THANK YOU π§‘π§‘

Coat prep it key... this is what you aim for a coat to be like before you start the clip ππ Bathed, conditioned, fluff dried and completely knot free...heaven !!
π Coat prep is key π The better the coat prep, the better the groom!! Before you groom a dog there is a lot of work to do.... * Pre bathing - you have a quick examination and brush through of the coat. Any obvious matting or knotting can be dealt with prior to washing the coat. * Thoroughly bathing the dog (often several times) to remove grease and dirt within the coat. Conditioner is used depending on the type of coat. * Rinsing until the water runs clear and the coat is squeaky clean. If soap suds are left in the coat it is very hard to dry and very noticeable. * Towel dry as much as possible, this reduces the drying time. Sometimes spray conditioner is used at this point - again depending on the coat type. * A brush through of the coat to help sperate the strands. This again aids with the drying time. * Then the drying process begins. This is the longest part of the groom. And can take upto an hour! Different heat temperatures and nozzles are used to dry the coat from base to tip. Curly coated dogs require fluff drying . This is a combination of drying and lifting the coat to straigtening out those pesky curls and manage any matts and knots that are present π₯° ..... Then the clipping can begin. In the video you will see that Vivienne's coat is all ready for clipping. I am, at this stage able to run the slicker brush and metal comb smoothly throughout the coat ππ Good job Vivi ππ§‘
He enters at his own free will, jumps on the table at his own free will and then leaves at him own free will..... You're such a dude Sid π» He doesn't like the dog treats though π€·πΌββοΈ I'm sure he'd much prefer it if I stocked some dreamies.....πππ
πΎ The final groom day of 2022 πππ πΎ Thanks to each and every one of you and your dogs for all your custom and support throughout the year.

Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year πΎ Much Love Anna & Louise The Dog Shed York P.s I really appreciate all the tips, cards, gifts, chocolates and flowers π₯°

Once a month we volunteer ourselves to the RSPCA to bring us a surprise groom π€ This small contribution allows a resident dog a little bit of time out from the Kennel environment to enjoy the delights of a full pamper morning with us. This morning's groom did not disappoint!! I actually had swimming goggles on at one point !! π Due to the nature of the case we cannot display any photos of the lovely dog but we can show you how much better we made her feel π§‘π§‘𧑠Friends of RSPCA York Animals Home
