Good morning! I’m so sorry I’ve become really terrible at keeping this page up to date! So much so that every single day clients message me with “are you still grooming?”, “are you back grooming?”, “not sure if you’re still grooming but..” I don’t know where people thought I went but I never stopped 😂 I worked until I was 38 weeks pregnant and was back 2 weeks after having the boys both times! Rory’s now 3 and Leon’s 2 in August 😬 can’t believe it! I haven’t gone anywhere and I’m not going anywhere unless we become millionaires overnight 😜 I do have some very exciting news though! I don’t think I posted it on here but we bought a family member’s Croft last summer and we should be moving out there by the end of this summer 🤞🏼it’s right on a private beach and only 5minutes away from here so it’s an amazing place to hang out while waiting for your dogs to be pampered. I will of course be taking my salon out with me 🥰
Here’s a couple of hand strips I did yesterday. Wish I had the camera closer when doing Scapa (the first one) because you can’t see as well.

Every year I get a crazy amount of gifts from you beautiful people and this year I thought maybe if I don’t post pictures of them it won’t make other people feel like they have to get them too. It didn’t work 😂 this is just today’s gifts! Not just stuff for me but gifts and money for my boys too! You guys are so generous, you really really don’t have to 💖

That’s a wrap from me… until Monday 😆 but I’m just working a couple of days then that’s me until the 5th!

Thank you SO much for choosing me to be your dogs groomer. You genuinly have no idea how much it means to me. It means I get to do what I love, I can choose my working hours around my babies, I can put food on the table and my actual job is to pamper dogs all day 😍 it’s the best!!

I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your families and next year brings lots of happiness 🥰

Loads and loads of love,
Meg ###

I’m sooo annoyed I didn’t think to take a before pic! Double coated dogs are the most satisfying and therapeutic grooms to do 😍 this gorgeous guy was in for his usual wash, blow dry and trim. The second I put the blaster dryer on him after his bath his under coat just appeared like fireworks! The blaster blasts right down to the root making it much easier for that undercoat to loosen and fall out. He’s now half the size and silky smooth 😎

Morning! Just giving a reminder as I do every year to please not be under any pressure whatsoever to try and make your grooming appointment when it’s snowy and icy! I’m a really confident driver but I’m petrified driving in this so I completely understand. Even if you need to cancel last minute because you’re afraid to drive, that’s totally fine and we can easily reschedule 🤍 ❄️

Fire was lit at 6am this morning 🥶

Wow! It’s been way too long since I’ve posted on here, sorry! I am still here and still pampering dogs as usual, I’m just terrible at keeping up to date with social media now!

As if 2 babies, 4 dogs, a cat and a busy dog grooming business wasn’t enough… We’ve just bought a beautiful Croft from my great aunty that’s been in our family for generations 😍 loads and loads of work to do so it’ll be a very long process but obviously super exciting!

I keep getting asked if I’ll still be grooming - Of course!!! Unless we somehow become millionaires overnight I have absolutely no plans of ever stopping my lovely wee business. If anything, I love it and appreciate it now more than ever because I can be so flexible around my boys.

This is a good opportunity to thank every single one of yous that have kept me going all these years and allowed me to do what I absolutely adore doing! You guys are the best 🩷⭐️

We need to get Louie home back to his loving family who miss him very much! Louie slipped his collar while out for a walk at Steall Falls 3 and a half months ago and his family have been searching for him day and night ever since! If you’ve seen this beautiful boy or know if anyone has taken him thinking he was a stray please get in touch with Louise! Time to come home beautiful boy 🙏🏼 💛

Sorry, I am still here! I’ve just been majorly slacking in the social media updates 🙈 👋🏼

Tommy was one of the gorgeous doggies I had in yesterday for their groom 🐕 and I remembered to take pics for the first time in aaaages!

Today was suppose to be my last day of work before heading to Vegas next week to say goodbye to my 20s. I had to cancel my dogs this morning because I turned my head and put my neck and back out 🤦🏻‍♀️ so I’ll be catching up over the weekend instead. Is this a sign of getting older? 🥴 👵🏼

I’ll be back to work on the 23rd and I’m fully booked for that week and nearly the week after too. Just a wee heads up in case anyone was looking to get their dog groomed in the next few weeks 😘 x

All the evil in the world then you get absolute angels like Joanne that give you 2 plants, 2 Easter eggs for the boys and a kids garden tool set just to say “thanks for doing a good job.” 🥰🥰🥰😇
