💌 Oakley's Report Card 💌

✂️✂️ 🐾✂️

18/10/2026

Today we witnessed poor Millie be run over in a hit and run in Ulverstone. I stopped to render assistance and took Millie and her dad to the wonderful forthvalleyvet.

Unfortunately Millie suffered a broken pelvis in four places and the advice was given even with surgery and further treatment she would live a life in pain. Therefore poor Millie has crossed the rainbow bridge and left her family heart broken with a large vet bill.

I will be grooming next Sunday the 25th of October by Appointment where all income from the day will be paid straight to Millie's owners who settled the bill today.

Grooming Details:
Date: Sunday the 25th of October
Times: 7am - 6pm By Appointment
Location: Gawler/Ulverstone!
**** No dog aggressive dogs! ****

There will be more than one dog present at a time in an effort to raise as much as possible! With multiple groomers working at once.

If you don't have a pet but can contribute something, even a few dollars please reach out.

⭐️ Stay With Me! ⭐️

Arlo is normally sedated at the vets for his grooms and shaved as short as possible to get the most out of the groom, at a huge cost of $700 to his owner. They normally can't get through the first shampoo with him awake. Now I'm not against sedation grooms. Sometimes they are absolutely necessary!

Today was my first time meeting and grooming Arlo. I completed a full groom, sedative free. I went into it telling his owners let's aim for a bath and blow-dry, possibly some grooming, hopefully I can do his full groom. That was very hopeful. What's the saying under promise, over deliver....

But guess what!!! We were patient with one another. I set safe, reasonable boundaries and allowed him to express when he didn't like something in a safe and controlled manner. With LOTS of praise!

This isn't perfection, it's progress.

I will NEVER tell you I'm the cheapest or fastest groomer, because I'm neither of those things.

What I am is passionate about your dog's mental and physical health. I don't put all dogs in the same box and expect them to all behave like robots and be in and out.

I will send your dog home unfinished and ask you to come back if I think it's in your dog's best interests. Not to stuff you about but to ensure I build a strong relationship based on trust with your dog.

Throughout the video you will see Arlo pant, show his teeth, lick his lips, move away from tools and equipment. These are all signs of stress and displeasure. I'm not ignorant to them. But I remain calm, I give corrections of "leave it, no or uh" in a neutral tone, void of emotion to set clear boundaries. I give plenty of praise to show I'm proud of him.

This builds trust, backed with consistency Arlo will learn the routine. He will know he is safe and that I respect his boundaries.

💛 Moe & Lenny 💛

WARNING!!! Graphic Photo of wound!

Part of grooming is conducting nose to tail assessments prior to, throughout and after the groom. Documenting and bringing any notable findings to the owners attention.

Today I noticed what felt like a small matt on Lenny's ear and a lump on his body.

I photographed both prior to bathing him, making note of where they were prior to moving forward so that I didn't risk nicking them during clipping.

Once having bathed and dried Lenny I could feel dampness where I thought the small matt was on his ear. I inspected closely and realised it was an open sore that had softened after the bath. I immediately called the owner to discuss my findings, if they were aware etc

Lenny only got a clean bill of health a fortnight ago for his annual checkup with no mention of either. This is not surprising, a lot can happen in a fortnight.

I progressed with the groom, trimming the hair carefully around the open wound to help keep it clean, aid in cleaning at home and to help it dry out.

I explained we aren't allowed to diagnose however it could be an injury from rough housing with Moe and did have the appearance of a ruptured cyst. To monitor and seek veterinary care.
