If anyone was interested in my #pawgust journey. We have finished our 100km today! Huge thank you to everyone who donated, everyone who walked with me, and everyone who motivated me to get off my damn ass to get out and about! Motza enjoyed every minute of it and we will be making sure to continue getting out and about and showing off Mozzarella’s amazing wardrobe! If you were considering donating, you can still do it! https://www.pawgust.co.nz/fundraisers/kimmaiden
I’ve had a few questions lately about what the dogs wear around their heads when we are drying them. They are Happy Hoodies! They help protect their ears from the loud noises of the dryer, they also help protect them from hearing my singing! (Nothing will ever protect them from my dance moves though!)
If you can guess what song I am singing and dancing to first, you can have a treat pack!
*hint the music to the reel is the same genre and year as the epic song I was listening to!
(Also I am aware I’m vacuuming with a tiny nozzle if any person can get that off so I can put the other head on sometime you can also get a treat pack!)
We made it!!! 1,000 five star reviews in Fresha.
I would just like to thank everyone who reviews and recommends us across all platforms. Seeing all the lovely reviews and hearing the recommendations does really brighten my day.
Thank you for trusting us with your furbabies! Here’s to the next 1,000!!
Here is a real of judgemental sleepy dogs and outtakes!
Thank you!
Winter Special!
Due to an unprecedented amount of cancellations and reschedules (can you all please stop getting sick!!) we are running a Refer A Friend special!
Refer a friend who hasnt been to Lord Billingtons before, and if they book before the end of the month you will both get $10 off the grooming price! How cool is that?!
This is a great time to get into the schedule, once they like what they see we can find some time for them in the increasingly full spring/xmas schedule!
And if you haven’t booked for the year, please do so now. We are at 90% capacity for the last four months of the year!
With this gorgeous sunny hot weather, it’s great to take your dog to the beach/river/water park to cool down!
Just remember wet hair matts very easily so after their fun in the sun, give your puppy a quick brush to make sure they aren’t knotty or matted! That’s also a great time to make sure your dog hasn’t picked up any stray grass seeds or plant matter that can also be painful and dangerous when left in their coat/skin!
Exciting news!! Due to my staff’s extravagant spending on books and Pokémon things. We will be opening later on Thursday nights (to a massive 5pm!! Or when the last dog is ready to go home)
Contact us now to book in! Spaces are limited.
Wow. What a year! I think this has been Lord Billingtons biggest year yet! After doing over 3,000 grooms this year, we will be having a well deserved break.
Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for their love and support, especially at the time of loosing my precious grumpy old man. To be honest, I was quite overwhelmed with the outpouring of support. Also thank you for all your gifts this year. We have been really blessed by your generosity.
I am just so amazed at how far the team has progressed this year, I feel we have have just improved in leaps and bounds and our success at Groomalong was just the cherry on top.
I am so incredibly proud of my team and Lord Billingtons would not be as amazing as it is without Hana and Danny. I’m still so surprised they keep turning up to work everyday, they put up a lot with my random singing and dancing all day!
So Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, thank you so much for all your support, and can’t wait to see y’all next year!
Tonight I had to say goodbye to my beloved baby Bill. While most of you saw the grouchy tough exterior he presented to people he didn’t know, or his naughty side to any dog smaller than him, Bill has been a huge positive influence in my life in the 4 years I was blessed to have him.
I adopted Bill at 11 years old from the poundwhen his previous owner was no longer able to care for him, and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. If anyone is ever thinking of adding a new family member to their house I would highly recommend looking at getting a rehome dog.
I will always remember Bill for his unwavering positivity to everyone he liked, and his tenacious attitude to always get what he wanted (treats or fried chicken).
So if I’m a bit slow replying or I leave Hana to do all the talking all the time this is why. Thank you for your understanding.
I don’t post your dog photo? It may be a “day like this” Curtesy of Honey, over two grooms we still haven’t yet got a photo of Honey to post! we do try but sometimes it just doesn’t work out!And shout out to April, she likes every single post and still gets no doggy reward till today!! 😂
Transformation Thursday with Monty!
This is the journey of Monty’s first groom!
A puppy’s first haircut can be very daunting. The new sights, sounds and smells make for a pretty exciting time! Losing all that puppy fluff and coming out as a respectable young adult is a big deal, not just for your dog but for you! At Lord Billingtons, we try to make the experience as carefree as possible!Check out Maisey’s glow up! Doesn’t she look adorable! Transformations can happen at any time in your dogs life. So if you feel like mixing it up , let us know and we can discuss what amazing haircut your dog could have next!
Thank you so much everyone!!! 600 five star reviews on Fresha! I can’t believe it!!Also huge shout out to Hana. Everyone always credits me for their beautiful grooms but Hana has turned into an absolutely amazing groomer and I couldn’t be prouder!!
