Beautiful girl Joni came for a glow up session on her teeth recently. Her teeth were actually not that bad but prevention is always better than waiting until its to late!

Joni is a Whippet, a breed which is part of the Sighthound group that are typically known for their increased risk to periodontal disease due to the shape of their muzzle and jaw, as well as their genetics. This disease can cause a lot of pain and discomfort in the gums, so its super important to keep on top of their teeth! 😁

Joni did amazing for her first visit with me and we got her pearly whites fully restored in one session.🦷

Anybody who knows me well enough know that Sighthounds have a real soft spot in my heart, so it was an absolute pleasure to meet little Joni! ❤️

Everybody make way! Miss Peggy is back for her 5 star pamper and spa day here at The Distinguished Pooch 😎

As usual, Peggy requested to be cut short one last time before the colder weather comes in, but keeping a cute little round face is a must have to keep all the boys looking her way. 😍

As if she wasn't already glamorous enough, this little diva had a new collar made with her name on it.

Peggy doesn't just walk out of my salon, she struts. 👠

Cheeky boy Marlo certainly knows how to pose for the camera, but doesn't quite sit still long enough for me to take his photos, or maybe I'm just to slow, his faces at the end says at all really! 😂

This was his second time visiting me this time, but its the first time getting his teeth cleaned with my ultrasonic teeth cleaning program. Despite being the crazy boy he is, he sits amazingly well for everything and is a star from start to finish. ⭐️

I thoroughly enjoyed having him in and it was so satisfying to see how amazing his teeth turned out! 🦷

After a nice time away in the sun, I'm back to work as usual from tomorrow. Benji also very much enjoyed his time away at his holiday home with his nanna and granda and as usual, was spoilt rotten as he deserves ❤️

I would like to thank everyone for their patience while I've been away and to please bare with me while I work my way through any missed messages and calls and I will be in touch as soon as possible, if I haven't done so already. 😁

Please be aware that I have had a cancellation for this Thursday at 11:30am for a full groom on any small/medium breed and 1pm for bath & brush. These are the only dates I have available for this month as my next availability isn't until the week commencing the 12th of October which is already filling up. If you are interested in booking an appointment then please get in touch soon!

Thanks again! ❤️

Benji is also currently enjoying a nice time away at his holiday home with his nanna and grandad, getting extra spoilt as he always does and most certainly deserves! ❤️

A very satisfying teeth clean for lovely Nala recently, who was an A+ student for me throughout the entire appointment. 😁

During her session, she was not phased by anything, until the last set of back upper molars on her right side. The gums looked swollen, even cracked in some areas and Nala showed visible signs of discomfort which was not like her given how relaxed she was for the rest of her teeth. So these were left alone and the owner was shown a picture when Nala was picked up.

The next day she was in the vets and was given some medication to tackle gingivitis, but otherwise given the all clear for everything else! 🦷

Its so rewarding knowing that my ultrasonic teeth cleaning session brought this to our attention and could be treated before it got any worse and getting her the treatment she needed to stop her pain 🥰

Beautiful little Indie the miniature Schnauzer came in for her very first big girl groom today. ❤️

Her owner requested that I didn't do the typical Schnauzer cut on her, but rather a teddy bear trim instead.

Indie was the best girl and stood really well for everything, but since she has a mixture of soft puppy coat & tougher adult coat, it was quite difficult to get everything just right on her for the first time.
Thankfully her owner was over the moon with how Indie looked and I really enjoyed doing this trim on her too.

Well done Indie for being such a good girl! 🥰
