☀️ Warm weather is on the way ☀️

With temperatures set to rise, it’s worth remembering that warmer days can become uncomfortable and even dangerous for dogs much quicker than many people realise.

🌡️ Temperature guide:

🐾 Under 20°C – Generally comfortable for most dogs

🐾 20–23°C – Take extra care, especially with puppies, older dogs, flat-faced breeds and thicker-coated dogs

🐾 24–27°C – Increased risk of overheating – keep walks shorter and choose cooler times of the day

🐾 28–31°C – High risk for many dogs – avoid walks in the hottest part of the day

🐾 32°C+ – Heatstroke risk becomes much higher

Signs of overheating:
• Excessive panting
• Heavy drooling
• Lethargy
• Vomiting
• Wobbling or collapse

A few reminders:
• Keep fresh water available
• Make sure there’s shade
• Check pavements before walks
• Never leave dogs in cars

GUESS THE BREED — HARD EDITION 🕵️‍♂️

Think you know your dog breeds? This tiny dog has a HUGE personality… but can you figure out what breed it is from these clues alone? 👀

🔍 CLUES:

1. This toy-sized breed was originally bred to hunt rats in horse stables and carriages in Belgium.

2. This breed helped inspire the appearance of Ewoks in early sci-fi creature design discussions.

3. This breed comes in both rough-coated and smooth-coated varieties - but they’re considered the same breed.

I want to follow on from yesterday’s post about deposits and explain why we take them.

I also want to address the issue of matting. I will not brush out matted coats. I’m happy to brush out minor knots and tangles, but I will never put a pet through unnecessary pain or discomfort by trying to brush out severe matting.

It is the owner’s responsibility to maintain their pet’s coat between grooming appointments. If you’re unable to keep on top of coat maintenance, then more regular grooming appointments will be needed.

I work with the condition of the coat presented to me on the day of the appointment. If a coat is matted, I will always recommend the safest and most humane option, clipping underneath the matting to avoid pulling on the pet’s skin and causing pain.

If you choose not to go ahead with this option, you are absolutely entitled to take your pet home and manage the matting yourself. However, the appointment will then be treated as a cancellation or no show and the deposit will be forfeited.

I will not tolerate bullying or abusive behaviour over this policy. My priority will always be the welfare, comfort, and safety of the pets in my care. This is non negotiable.

I have been grooming pets for 13 years, and throughout that time my number one priority has always been your pet’s wellbeing.

I understand that losing a deposit can be frustrating, but please remember that you are booking my professional time and experience. This is my livelihood, and a little respect and understanding goes a long way.

I truly appreciate all of my wonderful customers and will continue to provide a high standard of grooming and a safe, caring environment for every pet that comes through my door.

A little reminder about why we take deposits for grooming appointments

Deposits are not “just a fee” - they secure your appointment slot, cover the time we reserve especially for you, and reflect the professional knowledge and experience of our grooming team.

Every pet that comes through our doors is assessed individually, and their welfare will always come before appearance. If a coat is severely matted, brushing it out can cause significant pain, distress, and injury. We will never put an animal through unnecessary suffering for the sake of a hairstyle.

We will always offer the kindest and safest options available, even if that means recommending a shorter clip or adjusted groom.

We also ask that all staff are treated with the same respect we show every customer and pet. Rudeness, aggression, or abusive behaviour towards our team will not be tolerated.

Thank you to the many lovely customers who trust us with their pets and support welfare-first grooming ❤️
