The Goosebank Groomers

Just in case any of you were considering changing from kibble to raw feeding your dog, Conor Brady (local nutritionist) has shared his online course for FREE for the week end only, very knowledgeable guy….. even if you were looking to make some natural treats instead of buying some ultra processed stuff off the shelf….some really good info in there….. a must see for anyone who has dogs with ongoing skin issues, gut issues, ear issues etc… these can all be linked to nutrition. Dogs First

CHECK OUT MY "FEEDING DOGS" MASTERCLASS!!
I just put together a whopping big masterclass for all those punters interested in changing their pets to real food...but they're either confused with all the contradictory info online or they have questions.

The course covers everything you need to know about feeding dogs yourself. And I do mean EVERYTHING (details below!).

Over 3.5hrs long, it will come with (at least the paid version will!) a few handy chapters from my book, slides, a cert to prove to your employer you at least have learned the basics and entrance into a little community I'm building, sort of like a hangout (calling it The Den) where we can chat, post questions, all sorts. More on all that later as the site is still in development.

As you can see from the testimonials, this highly popular course is ideal for the fresh-feeding beginner, intermediate, for pet store owners and think it might work to shift over a few customers on the fence or you are admin of a group trying to help lots of people.

Enjoy!

I just wanted to wish all my Lovely Customers a Happy and Healthy Christmas. Thank you for your support over the last year of being open. I hope 2024 is good to you all. Our little Daughter, Robyn was born on 19/12/23 and is doing great. The best Christmas present I could ask for. I will keep you all updated on my return to work date once I know.

Thanks to all of your very generous donations, we were able to give €8,351 euro to St. Francis Hospice in Blanchardstown yesterday. They will for sure put that money to great use. Thank you all for making our “Kenny Carrauntoohil Climb” in memory of our mother, Margaret a success. We really do appreciate it. I’m so chuffed we could help in some way for them providing such a valuable service to so many families.

As a lot of you know already, I will be finishing up at the end of November to head off on Maternity Leave. I have been in search of a replacement to stand in for me temporarily but it just hasn’t worked out that way unfortunately. I will continue to keep an ear out for a reliable replacement and will keep you updated in that regard. But as it stands I will be closing up shop for 4 months and will be back all going well March/April time.

In the meantime… For existing customers only, I have a few spots available this month and next for grooming so if you’d like to book in before I head off, please message me on Instagram/Facebook or text me on (085)1390448 and I will get back to you asap. It will be on a first come first served basis. And I really do apologise if I can’t fit everyone in, I wish I could.

Thank you so much for your continued support over the last year of being open. I really do appreciate it. Hopefully I will see a lot of you before I go or when I return, fingers crossed as a mother of two!! Helen

Happy New Year Everyone! Im sorry I’ve been a little quiet on social media for the past couple of months, my Mother sadly passed away during the Christmas period. I also have to apologise to those whose appointments I had to cancel just before Christmas, I will be in touch to rearrange those before anyone else. If I’ve overlooked any messages/texts over those weeks I also apologise. My head just wasn’t in it to be honest. I will be reopening from January 5th so if you’d like to arrange an appointment, please drop me a line on Facebook/insta or give me a call/text.

Thank you so much to those of you who have trusted me with your lovey dogs so far and I’ll look forward to meeting some more during 2023! 🐶

Helen 🙂
