Nail Cutting Upgrades

If you are visiting for a nail cutting appointment, you can upgrade your booking to include a foot tidy and excess pad fur removal.

Regular nail maintenance is essential for your dogs comfort and wellbeing. Overgrown nails can force the foot in an unnatural position, which leads to pain and long term posture changes.

Keeping the nails at the correct length alongside maintaining clear paw pads, helps your dog walk comfortable, correctly, without sliding, reducing unnecessary strain on joints and the rest of the body.

The Importance Of Early Age Regular Grooming

The dog in this video is Stevie who I adore. I’ve been grooming Stevie since he was very tiny, very regular. This was intentional as now he is much bigger he is the best behaved dog I work with, and the largest. I was even able to work with him with ease throughout the time of me having 2 frozen shoulders, because of how relaxed and fully compliant he is when I attempt to lift him and how still he is on the table when being groomed. Dogs a quarter of his size can put my back out or damage my hands when restraining their weight pull. Stevie loves the entire process of grooming and lives for his full body massage. And his mum doesn’t have a hairy house because this kid is de-shed regular as short fur dogs should be!

Press & Public Frequently Asked Questions – One To One Professional Dog Grooming

The most common questions asked by press and public – Explain the personalised one to one luxury dog grooming experience?

I have always groomed in a one to one environment both in Essex and Cornwall. I will take more than one dog at one time if they are from the same owner. However I will never take dogs from different owners at one time. This is why I heavily rely on owners collecting and dropping off their dogs in an accurately timely manner because dogs can not be seen at the same time.

One to one grooming makes an extremely safe, relaxed, fully focused environment for both the dog and the groomer. It becomes a very personalised, bonding experience for your dog and groomer.
