On Saturday I got the opportunity to do a bit of charity work to help this little girl out and support Thornberry Animal Sanctuary who are a fantastic rescue which i have rehomed animals from myself and also donated to and fundraised for on several occasions.

This incredibly sweet little girl is only young and has been through so much in the last week or two so she is understandably petrified of life at the moment. As you can see from her photos she was in a terrible state when she arrived as a stray and had some extremely tight matting so had to go a lot shorter, but isn't she beautiful!?

Please head over to Thornberry's page and support them however you can, even just liking and sharing a post can help get the word out to find the right homes for each of their animals.

** NOW TAKING ORDERS FOR SHAMPOO OR PRODUCTS **

It's less than 2 weeks now until I will be attending Crufts 2025! I have lots of shopping, grooming demos, and meeting with suppliers planned!

I have had several customers ask me about the shampoo I use and also the long pin slicker brush I use and recommend on longer coats or ears/tails etc as well as my anti-static comb I couldn't live without! I am going to be meeting with all my suppliers and am happy to take orders for anyone wanting anything and I can collect this whilst there and take with me to your next appointment.

I won't know exact prices on everything as there may be deals and sales on, but for example the 250ml shampoo bottles are £10. As you will have seen me do at your appointments, this shampoo is diluted with water 32:1 so a little goes a long way and definitely makes it worth it! I think last year my slicker brush was maybe around £15 so hopefully should be somewhere within that region again.

If you have any questions or requests please feel free to give me a shout!

**AVAILABILITY UPDATE**

*NOW GONE* ONE FEBRUARY APPOINTMENT LEFT - I have one space left on Saturday 15th Feb around 2.30pm.

!!MARCH AVAILABILITY IS LIMITED!!

Not only will we be away for 4 days attending Crufts, we will also have a new furry family member joining us middle to end of March which means availability for this month will be reduced. I am going to be working some additional days to try and get everyone in, however if you need a specific day to fit in with your schedules it may be worth booking this as soon as possible rather than waiting for your next booked appointment. As always I will list my possible dates but I will always try my best to accommodate as much as I can so if you don't see a date you need give me a shout and I will see what I can do!

Sunday 2nd (extra day)

Tuesday 11th - 1 slot left 11.30am (Barnsley)

Either Monday 17th or Tuesday 18th (extra)
Wednesday 19th - 1 slot left 1.30pm *GONE*

The very start of April may also be slightly reduced depending on how the puppy is settling in but should hopefully be getting back to normal by mid April!

Thank you for your patience bearing with me through this......going to be a busy month!!! 🐶🐶🐶

You have all met Mabel the beautiful golden doodle, well today it was one of her 17 week old puppies Jackson's turn for his first ever puppy groom! Yes......this boy is only 17 weeks old he is going to be massive!!

His owners have put a lot of work in to brushing him and getting him desensitised to the bath and hair dryer and it shows, he did absolutely amazingly and had the sound and feeling of clippers introduced for the first time to start getting him ready for his first big boy haircut.

There are only a few slots left for February so if you need an appointment get in touch as soon as possible.

Chase has been having the best fun in the snow! However the roads are not so fun in places. Unfortunately today has had to be cancelled and rearranged due to some of the roads I would have to have travelled on but the forecast is for this snow to disappear so hopefully will be back to normal from tomorrow 🤞🤞

Please stay safe in the snow and ice and remember i am always here if you have any questions or need to book an appointment 😊

30/12/2024

I hope everyone has had a lovely Christmas! I'm enjoying a well needed rest after the the December madness and illness but am still here anytime to answer any questions or book appointments. January and February are filling fast with only a maximum of 5 slots left for January. As all my customers will know due to the nature of me being mobile and the extra tlc some of my dogs can need my times are always approximate and it can be the case on a day where I may have two slots available I may need all that time for one dog so this can reduce availability. I will write the areas I am in on each day but again I can always adapt a route to fit in another area if required so please just ask and I will always do as much as I can to get you in a day that works for you 😊. See below for a list of remaining appointments, and I also will have some evening slots available on other dates for anyone within a 15 min drive of Cudworth.

February:
Tuesday 4th any area
Wednesday 12th 2pm Barnsley
Saturday 15th 3pm Leeds
Thursday 20th 3pm Barnsley
Sunday 23rd any area
Friday 28th 2pm Leeds

Apologies for being so quiet on here over the festive period, unfortunately I managed to firstly drop a knife on my foot and end up an A&E and then ended up very poorly and had to battle through the last week.

I am now all finished for 2024! I would like to say an absolute massive thank you to all my wonderful customers this year, but especially to those who have dealt with appointment rearrangements, and me being poorly this last couple of weeks.

I have been absolutely overwhelmed with everyone's generosity of gifts, flowers and most of all support for what I do. I am immensely proud of the progress everyone has made this year and I look forward to seeing you all again in 2025!

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and very best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year ❤️

Tis the season.......for Christmas photos! And how super cute are Foxy and Morris!?

During the manic Christmas season please feel free to shout at me to remind me to take photos or you can send me photos through any time on messenger/whatsapp for me to edit into Christmas pics......all my wonderful regulars will know just how bad I am for getting distracted yapping about something or other and forgetting to get after pics! 🤣🤣

I am now back after a family trip up to Scotland and the Christmas grooms are now underway 🎄🎅🎁

Let's talk about fleas!

This year has been an absolute nightmare for them, they are normally most active in spring and summer months but they are really out in force and seem to be rearing their little heads once again!

What can I do to prevent them?

There are a couple of options, one is to use a natural remedy such as diatomaceous earth which can help keep them at bay however it is not very effective against eggs once they have been laid. The other is spot on treatments. There are many available but I would strongly advise getting them from your vet, there are new laws now around flea treatments and prescribing them, and sadly most of the ones you can buy over the counter in pet shops or online are either toxic and can cause serious health problems in some pets, or they have been so over used that fleas are now resistant to them.

What do I do if my dog gets fleas?

If you find fleas or flea dirt on any of your pets I'm afraid the only way to deal with it is to hit it from all angles. Just putting treatment on the pet alone is not enough as eggs could already have been laid or pupated on things like bedding/carpets etc. I find the best course of action is to bath the animals (see below for info and technique on this), once dry apply vet prescribed flea treatment. Immediately strip and hot wash anything you possibly can such as their bed, soft toys, sofa/cushion covers (if they lay there regularly and they can be safely washed). You MUST treat the house with an effective spray such as Indorex for any soft furnishings that can't be washed such as carpets, bottom of long curtains, upholstery etc. And vacuum like your life depends on it, consistent regular and thorough vacuuming will help remove any eggs clinging to carpets etc. It is worth spraying Indorex inside the vacuum if it is bagless after emptying, and empty into a bag that goes straight out into your wheelie bin.......yes fleas can and will crawl and jump out of your kitchen bin straight back into your house!

How do I bath and pet with fleas?

Fleas are master escape artists. The very first thing you need to do is rub a ring of neat shampoo or dish soap around their neck. The reason for this is as soon as you put the pet in water or switch on shower etc they will all scurry like their life depends on it (because it does) and will find nooks and crannies around their ears/eyes/nose/mouth. They cannot cross neat shampoo or detergent so this traps them on the body where they can be dealt with. You then need to thoroughly soak your pets whole body, scrub in shampoo paying very particular attention around things like toes/claws, bottoms, private parts, armpits. They then need to sit absolutely covered in shampoo for a good 5 minutes to suffocate the fleas. Lots of cuddles and treats help with the wait! Then a very thorough rinse.

Unfortunately a bath in normal shampoo or pet shop "flea" shampoo isn't always enough and some of the widely available flea shampoos can be very harsh and can be toxic or irritate dogs with sensitive skin. If you feel you are worried about this or are struggling I do always have my professional flea shampoo in the car with me and it is the only one I've ever found that works and is relatively gentle for sensitive skin as it utilises natural plants and oils. There is an additional charge for a flea bath with a full groom as i do this after the first regular shampoo but it is always available if needed or if its something you would like to add on as a prevention. Feel free to ask about it at your next appointment or give me a shout any time if you have any questions about these nasty critters.

The very handsome Chewie would like to ask everyone if you are all ready for the festive season.........because I don't know if I am 🤣🤣

I am now fully booked until January however if you still need an appointment or need to reschedule, let me know as soon as possible and I will always try my very best to help! Where there's a will there's a way!

I will also take this chance to announce that there will be a price increase effective from 1st January 2025 so that you all have plenty of notice. If you have any questions or concerns please let me know, there are options to reduce costs if you need such as having you bath the night before, changing frequency and/or alternating full groom and bath and tidy appointments.

For those that already bath the dog the night before or even in between grooms, I am now going to be able to stock small retail bottles of the professional shampoo I use made by Pawdinary so if this is something you would be interested in let me know.

As always thank you all for the continued support and look forward to seeing you all in my crazy December month!!
