It was bugging me. I flicked through my diaries to see when I last had a full weekend off (that’s Saturday AND Sunday). It was August 2025 for our holiday 😱

Here’s a nice family pic from today with Panda 🐼 we hired 30 mins at Paw Paddock to practice recall and just let her run free without us worrying. Brilliant fun had by all 😍

I can’t remember the last time I had a weekend off. School fair yesterday, out out in Brighton with my sister last night and THIS is how I’m starting my day. Sorry it’s not a doggy mug.

No dogs for me today. You’ll find me at the school fair on giant inflatable darts 🎯

The owner of those grinch feet. Ziggy’s owners find cavalier life much easier when he’s clipped right out. The clippers work hard on his thick double coat. Look how scrummy he is.

Don’t be put off by breed standard. If it’s not working for you and your lifestyle, talk to me and we’ll discuss the best solution.

Cockapoo Archie is an old hand at being groomed and doesn’t move.

This isn’t a Poochon, it’s actually a cloud disguised as a dog 😍

I love this. Your dog’s happiness is most important to me. I always want your dog to have a positive experience with me.

One thing people don’t always realize about grooming?

Sometimes the biggest accomplishment isn’t the haircut.
It’s building trust.

Not every dog walks into the salon confident and relaxed. Some are nervous about dryers. Some hate having their feet touched. Some had a bad experience somewhere else. Some are just puppies trying to figure out the world.

So a lot of grooming is actually about reading body language and helping dogs feel safe.

Sometimes that means slowing down.
Taking breaks.
Talking softly.
Changing our approach.
Or deciding that emotional comfort matters more than getting a “perfect” haircut that day.

Because the goal isn’t just getting through the appointment.
The goal is helping your dog learn that grooming doesn’t have to be scary.

And honestly, owners who consistently bring nervous dogs in — even when it’s hard — are doing something really important. Repeated calm experiences help dogs build confidence over time.

That patience and consistency truly matters more than you know.

Mickey was determined not to look at the camera for his after shot. He was a wriggle bum today. A very busy spaniel with lots to say today. Gorgeous boy Mickey.
