✂️🐾 A Day of Learning & Developing Our Skills! 🐾✂️

Over the weekend, Lisa had the pleasure of attending a handstripping seminar and workshop hosted by the fabulous Denise and Lesleyann from DMG Grooming 🐾❤️

It was a really in-depth training day, giving Lisa the opportunity to expand her knowledge, deepen her understanding of the handstripping technique, and learn more about achieving the best results while maintaining the coat to breed standard.

In the afternoon, Lisa was lucky enough to put these techniques into practice on the beautiful Bea, the Scottish Terrier, who was an absolute star! 🖤🐶

At Groomingtails Alva, we believe that learning never stops. Continuing to develop our skills and knowledge allows us to provide the very best care and grooming for every dog who walks through our doors. ✨

A huge thank you to Denise and Lesleyann for such an informative and enjoyable day, and of course to Bea for being such a lovely model! ❤️

🐾 PUPPY INTRODUCTIONS 🐾

A huge welcome to Cooper, Lucie, Nelly & Argos, who have all recently joined us for their very first puppy introductions! 🥰🐶

Those first experiences at the groomers are so important. We want every puppy to learn that the salon is a happy, safe and positive place — and that grooming can be something to enjoy rather than fear. 💙

That’s why all of our puppy introductions are completely pup-led. We allow each little one to explore the salon at their own pace, taking plenty of time for cuddles, reassurance and positive experiences before introducing them to the sights, sounds and sensations of grooming. ✂️🛁

And the best part? All puppy introductions are completely FREE for pups under 15 weeks old! 🎉
Starting early and building positive experiences can make such a difference as your pup grows, helping them become confident and happy visitors to the salon. 🐾💕

📲 If you have a new puppy, get in touch to book their first introduction with us!

✨ WE’RE BACK! ✨🐾

After a fab week away at Groomania in Belgium, we’re back in the salon today — Thursday 24th September! 💙

What an incredible few days it has been at the biggest grooming event in the world, filled with education, inspiration, new ideas and plenty of amazing memories. ✂️🐶
We’re also incredibly proud to have been there supporting Groom Team Scotland as they took to the world stage for the first time in 20 years! 🇸🇨🏆
There’s lots to tell you about that, so more on this to follow… 👀💙

We think we’ve managed to catch up with all of your messages while we’ve been away, but the signal in Belgium was very intermittent! 📱😂
If we’ve accidentally missed your message, please just give us a little nudge and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible. 💌
We’re so excited to be back doing what we love and can’t wait to see all of our lovely clients and their gorgeous dogs again! 🐾💙

See you all soon!
Lisa & Gillian x ✂️🐶💙
