Our Story
The Doggy Parlour was opened in 1989 by myself, Angela Brinkley after completing a professional dog and cat grooming qualification. I had already been involved in the dog world for years working and showing my dogs. I pride myself on providing proper styling which includes hand sc******ng ( which takes many many years of grooming to achieve) and also the correct terrier heads styling.
I also provide a very personal service with my clients which range from the teeniest little puppies that need to be gently schooled in how to be groomed to the oldest of geriatrics that need the softest of touches, and anything else in between. We never rush our groomings so as to provide our animals with a safe and comfortable experience. We are very mindful of how the animal wants to sit, stand or lie down and we work around that. My staff are also monitored all the time by myself and every instruction is closely followed. Despite grooming for so many years, they are never ever left unsupervised
Our main aim to to ensure that all animals are treated with the utmost respect and gentle care and compassion. We offer a variety of different styles and cuts encompassing all breeds, and the correct styling and not just the shave downs that is so commonly seen nowdays.
All our groomings involve brushing, bathing, drying, ear cleaning, nail cutting . We use the absolute best products that have been carefully selected by myself to ensure it matches the skin type and coat of the animal, depending on what skin and coat treatments they need.
We stock an excellent range of skin and coat products that include shampoos, conditioners, detanglers and anti itch treatments and leave in treatments.
We also stock complimentary meat meals in our dog deli, cooked and raw. Selection of chicken, beef, duck, rabbit, pork, lamb, tripe. We have a selection of natural healthy chews and biscuits that clean teeth and also provide happy chewing time for your pet.
I have also always followed a very strict hygienic cleaning protocol to ensure that the environment does not harbor parasites , viruses, fungus and bacteria. We have a dedicated cleaning lady that focuses on this aspect throughout the day, every day
