🐾✨ Why Calm Dogs Make the Best Grooms ✨🐾

We all love seeing our dogs excited — tails wagging, big smiles, bouncing like popcorn! 🐕💖
But at the grooming table, too much excitement can actually be dangerous. Scissors, clippers and a wiggly pup don’t mix well… 😅

Excitement without direction often turns into frustration, and frustration can sometimes turn into resistance (or even aggression). That’s why calm energy is key for safe, happy grooming.

💡 Here’s how you can help at home:
✔️ Reward calm behaviour — wait for 4 paws on the floor before giving cuddles.
✔️ Do short brushing sessions when your dog is relaxed (think TV time, not zoomie time).
✔️ Take a short walk before grooming to burn off some energy.
✔️ Stay calm yourself — your dog mirrors your energy.

🐶 A success story:
One of my clients has a gorgeous dog who used to arrive super bouncy and overexcited. Instead of coming straight in, the owners now take her for a quick walk before her appointment. By the time she hops onto the grooming table, she’s calm, focused, and stands like a total pro. ✨ It makes the whole process safer, smoother, and far more enjoyable for everyone involved.

At Dalilove, we’re all about fear-free, stress-free grooming. When you guide your dog’s energy towards calmness, you’ll see a safer groom, a happier groomer 😉 and most importantly — a more relaxed, peaceful dog. 🐾💕

🌬️🐾 Windy Day Safety Reminder for Our Pooches 🐾🌬️

The forecast is calling for very strong winds tomorrow, and as many of you know, wind can really unsettle our dogs. Some become restless, anxious, or even noise-phobic when things start banging, rattling, and howling outside. Others may panic and try to escape their yards.

To help keep your pups safe:
• 🏡 Bring them inside if they are nervous or noise-sensitive. A calm, quiet spot indoors helps them feel secure.
• 🔒 Check and secure your fences and gates. A sudden gust of wind can blow gates open – padlocks and latches are extra peace of mind.
• 🆔 ID is a must. Make sure your dog’s collar has a tag, and that their microchip details are up to date, so they can be returned quickly if they slip out.
• 💖 Provide comfort. If your dog struggles with windy or stormy weather, try giving them a cosy safe space (like their crate or a room with soft music) to help reduce stress.

We all love our dogs and want them to feel safe – a little preparation now can save a lot of worry tomorrow. Stay safe, everyone, and give your pooches some extra cuddles! 🐶💨❤️

🐾✂️ Why Grooming in Winter is Just as Important! ❄️🐶

It might be chilly outside, but your dog still needs regular grooming through the winter months! 🧼💨

Here’s why:
✨ A thick coat can hide matting, skin issues, and parasites
✨ Regular baths help remove dirt and allergens
✨ Nail trims are still essential (they don’t stop growing in winter!)
✨ Blow-drying and brushing helps maintain a healthy coat and circulation
✨ A clean, well-groomed pup is a happy, comfortable pup – even when it’s cold!

I have a few appointments available, so if your pooch is due for a tidy-up, now’s the perfect time to book in! 🐕🛁

Stay warm and give your furry friend some extra love this winter! ❤️

🐾 Another week of wagging tails at Dalilove Dog Grooming! 🐶✂️
From fluffy desheds to neat little trims, I’ve had the pleasure of grooming some beautiful pups this week.

Thanks to all the lovely owners for trusting me with your fur-babies! 💛

I’m so proud of this girl (the black one)! 🖤

She’s been super skittish about grooming—really uncomfortable being touched or brushed, and panicked at the sound of the clippers.

But instead of forcing her (like people used to do 20+ years ago), her owner and I took the slow and gentle route. Lots of short training sessions at home, weekly visits with me, and showing her that grooming isn’t scary—it’s just part of life.

Today was session 7… and for the first time, she let me clip her body! 🙌 I didn’t want to push her too far, so we left her face, feet, and legs (I scissored those last week anyway).

I’m just so proud of how far she’s come 💛

Also—her brother had his first groom with me today. He’s been groomed before but not by me… and he loved it. He even jumped back on the table for more pats and attention 😄



Ps the pic has been edited in Photoroom because it was a mess behind me 🤪
