Ooops! Bit of a photo backlog incoming 🫣 of a few gorgeous visitors lately.

Just a heads up that bookings for next year are open, and January is already fully booked. If you're interested in a regular schedule, kindly let me know as soon as possible. Please disregard any emails regarding booking changes, as I won't be confirming any fixed appointments until later in the year due to potential changes in scheduling.

Hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed the gorgeous sun 🌞

Happy Saturday 😊 😃

Another busy week with so many gorgeous visitors 😍

Note: my booking app has had a few updates recently, one being you can now confirm your booking through the link attachment when I send the reminder text, also it seems they are sending some emails when I book appointments, this is causing some confusion though as for those who have requested 2025 appointments it is not showing the year, (I have made them aware of this) so please check with me or go off your calendar I have given you.

If you haven't yet requested 2025 appointments, please let me know asap as January only has 3 appointments available already 😳. Seems crazy to sort this so early but it is a lengthy task and I like to be organised 😆

Hope you all have an amazing weekend 😊

Happy Saturday 😊 😃

Only a few photos this week, managed plenty of blury pics or no after photos 🤦‍♀️

Friday was a stressful day here, my gorgeous girl is a bit of a jumper, tried to jump a gate and managed to hurt her leg badly! After 6 hours at the vets I got to bring her home and by some miracle it isn't broken (vet was shocked it wasn't) but incredibly sore and possible tendon and ligament damage. Bed rest for a week and fingers crossed it comes right.

Hope you all have an amazing weekend 💗

A few gorgeous faces from this week 😍 from Buddy the most gorgeous wee pup to Chaleos the 3yr old Samoyed who had a major de-shed, 3 hours later and we both had to call it quits, unfortunately not finished but a huge difference nonetheless, and we will continue in a few weeks time.

Hope you all had an amazing weekend! Looking forward to another busy week ahead. 🐶❤️

Wow first day of February! Crazy...

Big photo dump of some of my fluffy new year visitors 💓

A big thank you for all your patience with grooming appointments or the lack of, been a couple of hiccups with the change over of systems but I will always do my best to accommodate as soon as I can, but please be respectful that I can only do so much in a day.

The calendars seem to be a success, so something I will definitely continue next year.

If you do not have reoccurring appointments booked in I highly suggest you contact me ASAP as I am very close to closing my books for appointments, Eeek never thought I would be at that stage after only a year.

Hope you are all having an amazing start to the year!

Oh and woohoo SCHOOL IS BACK 🤣💓💓

Wow!

Hair Off The Dog-Dog Grooming has just finished It's first year of business and first full experience of the xmas madness.

I am absolutely blown away with all my amazing clients commitment, trust and believing in me as a groomer, it means so much to me.

When I said on a whim to hubby I should become a groomer, never did I imagine to be where I am now, but me being me and as impatient as I am, when i decide to do something I go all in!

An amazing wee salon, hours and hours of study and tutorials, first Grooming comp and all your appointments and support has gotten me here.

I can't wait to get back into it in 2024 but for now, I will be over and out until the 8th January.

I hope you have an amazing Christmas and New Year - eat, drink and be merry but mostly be safe.

And thank you for all the amazing gifts, I smell nice, house smells nice, pants won't fit and the wine is chilling 😉 ❤️

Only one way to grow and learn...

3 days of amazing groomers competing and showing off their amazing skills at the 2023 Groomalong held in Wellington and today it was my turn, I completely went outside my comfort zone and gave it a go, doubting myself every second, knowing I'm probably one of the newest groomers with no mentors or outside advice and help.

BUT today I got 1st 💥 in my category, to say I was absolutely shocked is an understatement, holding back the tears with disbelief.

I have never had 2 hours fly by sooo fast, many things I wished I had done better or spent more time on but it is all about learning.

Thank you to all my friends and family, especially my hubby Matty for believing in me and to Lizzie for being the most amazing model ❤️

You never know, I may even do it again next year in Christchurch 😉😁

15/10/2023

Wow! The past couple of weeks have been crazy busy, since the wedding it has been go go go, plus battling lingering sinus issues 🤦‍♀️

The new booking system is 90% complete, apologies if you have had multiple emails. Dates of appointments should be the same but some times have been adjusted.

Hope you all have had an amazing weekend 💗 💕
