Lexi-poo had a trip to the treat store, and she definitely wasn't bribed with beef and cheese bites to pose for photos 😂

At Soft Paw Grooms we support the little local stores, the grand openings and the ones working from home. I'd like to give a little shout-out to some small businesses I appreciate and who have shown me nothing but kindness and support back.

Let's give some love to those in the quiet corners of our beautiful little town 🥰

Hello, hello, hello!!
My goodness it's been soggy!

I have not moved yet! The house is still up for sale but I am still operating at my regular premises; if you are concerned, have questions or are confused where I am just flick me a text, call or we can have a chat at your next appointment 🥰

I want you are your pup to feel as safe, secure and comfortable as possible prior to any move and during any relocation. Your opinions matter!

Go and show support for the new pet supply shop in town! Stock is still coming in, but my girls have been living off their treats the last couple weeks 😂

Just a reminder to pre-book your grooms as the studio will be closed;
August 31st to October 14th

I love you, I love your dogs, we're in this together 🥰

Goodness it's been crispy!! 🥶
My heated blanket has been on and the girls have been rocking new jumpers from Claire-Bears Crafts !!

I'm coming off a quick two week hiatus while my amazing partner is in the country, and my goodness are spots filling up fast!! There's currently 7 weeks until the next confirmed full-groom availability 😅

Remember, if your dog gets cold in the winter but you don't want to have a matted mess, we can do a wash and tidy between full grooms to extend their coat length. This keeps them cozy and as knot free as possible 🥰

Pre-book, pre-book, pre-book!!!
The studio will be closed for 6-7 weeks from August 30th - October 14th

Drop a review, recommend a friend or family member and I'll see you soon ❤️

Oh gee, the cat, or better yet, the dog is out of the bag.
Yes, you may have heard or seen, the villa is on the market 😭
No that does not mean it will sell, and no I am not closing the business! If things progress and this beautiful property does sell, then we have strategies and ideas in place to make things as smooth as possible for you and your pups.We're in this together, if you're worried, have questions or concerns just ask!
How you and your pup feels matters.

In the mean time peep the photos! See if you can spot a member of the soft paws pack in the video.

Look at some beautiful babies,(so many new ones!!! 😍) take a breath and enjoy the calm before winter kicks into full gear 🐩❄️☔

What's this? She's finally posted again?!
I've crawled out of my little cave covered in dog hair, nail clippings and the odd dangle-berry 😂

The sun is shining, the mornings are crisp and my back hurts; but at least the puppies are looking cute!! 😍

With the seasonal change comes allergies, fleas and funky bacteria that makes your dog smell like a weird bread loaf. Yeast, yeast and more yeast! Bacterial infections and gunk. Keep an eye out and your nose in tune for any off odors coming from your pups ears, mouth and feet. Excess redness, swelling and foot licking can be early signs of allergies or infections!

Also keep your eyes and ears peeled for fun changes on the horizon, as well as dates the studio will be closed.

!!!IMPORTANT INFORMATION!!!
The studio will be closed August 30th until October 12th.
Make your bookings and make them quick 🥰

If you feel generous, drop a review on the page, refer a friend or family member; and give your pup a kiss and cuddle for me ❤️🐩🐾

Hello! Oh my gosh January is coming to an end 😭

What a first month it as been! A few notes and important information;

Ticks!!! Ahh!! I've had a few separate dogs from different families come for a wash after the beach, and goodness me, a tick or two hiding under the fluff 🤢
Please, please check your pups over after a beach, forest or farm excursion.

Allergies and infections!! Itchy tummies, feet and ears. What's near the ground is nearest to pollen. Keep an eye out for excessive itching, welts and rashes. Pollen allergies are high this season!

Pre-book, pre-book, pre-book!!!
The studio will be closed for 6-7 weeks from August 30th to October 14th. If you know, you know 🫢👀

Lots of love from one of your local qualified and certified dog groomers

Merry Christmas!! Happy holidays and thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Everyone has been so utterly amazing and kind this year, it has been such a pleasure to service all of these gorgeous pups. I am so thankful to every pet parent, foster, relative and rescuer who trusts me to care for and pamper their fur-baby.
This year has been full of tears, hugs, happiness and grief. Every dog that walks through the salon gate becomes a part of the Soft Paws family, and when they depart, wether moving away and crossing the rainbow bridge; they leave bits of hair around my heart. I cherish every one of your pups, you and your family members; thank you for being in my life, and for letting me be a small part of yours ❤️

Take care this Christmas, make sure you and your pup keep hydrated in this heat!! Don't let to dogs have any Christmas ham or sneaky chocolate. If your dog got an extra short clip this Christmas be mindful of sun burn! Plus hot pavements and hot cars in general!

If I haven't sent you dates for next year please send me a message, I promise I forgot 😂
If you're feeling extra generous drop a review on the page, recommend a friend and send me pics of your pup with their Christmas bandana!! 😍

Have a beautiful Christmas, a peaceful new year and I'll see you all soon enough ❤️⭐

Wowza! Our first week into December and boy are my legs tired 😅
January is almost booked up, I have a two week break in May and a 6 week break in August/September. So definitely plan ahead!

A reminder that all no-shows and late cancellation (less than 24h) during December will result in a cancellation fee of the booked service.

Grass seeds!! Check your toes, your dogs toes and your tomatoes because barley grass is here and it's not going away 😭

Speaking of the grass! It's brown!! The sun is out, about and ready to roast your dogs feeties! Before taking your dog for a walk press the back of your hand to the surface you'll be strolling on for 10sec. Is it hot? Maybe postpone that walk until after dinner or for before breakfast, when the sun is low and the air is cool.

!!!DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DOG IN THE CAR!!!
Even mid 20°s outside can turn your car into an oven, roasted, dehydrated furbabies aren't exactly on the Christmas list and I'd like to keep it that way. Leave them home or with a trusted friend/family member, not in your car 🥰

Love
A crazy dog lady ❤️
