Temple of the Dog Grooming Salon Dalkeith

** Very important post - PLEASE READ **

This is a post I hoped I’d never have to make but the time has come…despite loving my amazing clients and lovely dogs I can no longer continue to operate Temple of the Dog from a commercial premises.

Next Friday will be my last day in the shop.

With the extortionate price of rent, utilities, equipment etc plus an increase in my home rent too, I just cannot sustain a comfortable living wage without working myself into the ground.

I will be starting a new job with a regular salary and in time this will allow us to hopefully buy a house of our own and maybe then I can open up a little grooming pod but for now, it’s a very sad goodbye.

My booking system is closed off from next Friday but I will send out an email and texts too just to make sure everyone gets the message.

Thank you to all of my amazing clients for supporting my little shop for the last 2+ years. I am grateful to all of you and so sad to have to leave a career I’ve loved for almost 15 years.

We’re doing the West Highland Way in April - and decided to raise money for the Dog’s Trust while we’re at it!

Any donations welcome

Iʼm raising money to thank the Dog’s Trust for the amazing dogs they brought us . Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.

Don’t forget - prices increase from 1st December 2025!

A Little Heads-Up 👋

From 1st December, there will be a small price increase across our services. We wanted to give you plenty of notice — because no one likes surprises when it comes to prices.

Here’s the good news:

If you sign up for our Monthly Pamper Package Subscription before 1st December, you’ll lock in the current price for 12 months. No increases, no changes — just consistent pampering at today’s rates. 🙌
It’s our way of saying thank you for your loyalty (and for planning ahead!).

If you’ve been thinking about joining the subscription, now’s the perfect time. Got questions? Just get in touch — we’re happy to help.
