I genuinely don’t know where to start with this one🥹
6 months ago, The Adored Dog Spa was just an idea. I wasn’t thinking about awards, finalists or recognition. I just wanted to create a salon where dogs could have a calm, positive grooming experience and owners felt completely comfortable leaving their dogs in my care. A place where every dog is treated as an individual, every appointment is given the time it deserves and quality is never rushed
To now be a finalist for Best New Business feels completely surreal!!
If I’m honest, I spend so much of my time worrying about whether I’m doing enough, whether I’m making the right decisions and whether I’m giving every dog and owner the experience they deserve. When people tell me how busy I am, I usually see the stress before I see the achievement. But I think this nomination has made me stop for a second and realise that being busy isn’t something to apologise for
Every appointment booked, every recommendation, every review and every returning client is somebody choosing to support my business, and that means more than I can put into words. Thank you for keeping me so busy over the last 6 months. Thank you for trusting me with your dogs, recommending me to friends, sharing my posts and supporting The Adored Dog Spa in any way. None of this would be possible without you guys!!
Being named a finalist is something I never imagined when I opened my doors, and I honestly feel like this is only the beginning. I can’t wait to keep growing, keep learning and continuing to build The Adored Dog Spa into everything I’ve always dreamed it could be 🤍
If you’d like to support me, I’d be so grateful if you could vote for The Adored Dog Spa in the Best New Business category. Every vote genuinely means the world to me ✨
