6 years of Cupcake 💔 Sadly last Friday I got a txt to say that dearest little Cupcake passed away aged 15years old. 

I groomed her for the last years of her life and for that I'm truly privileged. Cupcake was the sweetest little girl who was attacked as a puppy by another dog and lived her life with one functioning lung. She was sensitive about her sides and any pressure on her chest would impair her breathing so I had to be so careful with her. Her tongue would go blue if her breathing became restricted.

She was very anxious when she first started coming and tried to cling to me for the whole of her groom and was wiggly but she calmed down so much in the last few years and was one of the most cooperative dogs I groomed. 

Cupcake loved a treat and a cuddle. She was such a sweet gentle little girl and I shall miss her visits. Run free little Cupcake 💔🌈 Sending love to her mum and dad, Candice and Will, at this devestating time. Thank you for trusting me with your precious girl. She will never be forgotten ❤️

A huge welcome to this handsome boy Mambo! 😍

Mambo has been struggling with grooming particularly his feet so he's come to me for a different approach. Although previously needing a muzzle during grooming, I chose not to use one so I could properly assess his triggers. He's generally a really sweet friendly boy who likes to be petted and is optimistic in his personality so he is not a fear reactive dog, just a sensitive one!

We had already done a meet and treat which went well so he was very happy to come in this morning.

I started working on his feet first as this is his most sensitive area. We did some counter conditioning with food and I was able to remove quite a lot of hair. He did some lovely 'waits' and I made a huge fuss of him when he let me trim some hair and I gave him some high value sausage and cheese!

He jumped up on the table for some food and from the table I harnessed him and lifted him to the bath. He was very good in the bath and whilst towel drying him I did a bit more work on the hair underneath his front paws.

He was good with the dryer and I used the snuffle mat to keep him occupied but I noticed his stress increased afterwards so although he tolerates the bath and dry it does elevate his stress hormones and makes him more bodily sensitive. He tolerated having most his body clipped but was sensitive about his sides, belly and chest. I found he was better with the scissors than the clippers so I just trimmed his chest rather than clipping. I raked out some of the dead fluffy light hair along his back, which he tolerated well.

He communicates very clearly when he doesn't like something and as long as I stopped he didn't escalate. He did really really well for his first groom with me and now I know his triggers I will adapt his next groom accordingly and work on those sensitive areas before bathing him.

I felt very privileged to get some kisses and he still seemed in a good mood when I called it a day. Whilst we have stuff to work on I'm very confident he will improve each time. I look forward to seeing him again! 🖤🐾

A huge welcome to Cyprus Rescue pups Pablo and Maple!

They are around a year old and although they are brother and sister, they are polar opposites in every way. Pablo is brave and has a wool coat and Maple is very shy and has a wire coat.

I only groomed Pablo today as he really needed it and Maple just came to take it all in and get to know me. She's very nervous of new people so we are just building her confidence at the moment. She did really well and took treats and I worked up to cutting a few of her nails. Such a sweet girl.

Pablo did amazing for his first ever groom. We went short for the summer. He wasn't fazed by any of the groom and was so well behaved. He looks like a completely different dog and you can see his beautiful eyes now!

They are absolutely adorable 🖤🐾

Almost 10 years of Odie 💔 I got a very unexpected and devestating txt yesterday that Odie had to leave us all for rainbow bridge 😭💔

Odie was one one of my first customers at 18 months old, almost 10 years ago! He has always been the most well behaved boy and learned quickly to jump in the bath and on the table for me, saving my back as he was a big boy! The only part of the groom he didn't love was the dryer on his head but even then all he'd do was turn his head away. We worked on it over the years and as long as I used the gentle quiet dryer he would let me dry his head!

Odie was one of those dogs who was always happy to come in and be groomed but equally happy to leave and see his family! I'm sure grooming wasn't his favourite past time but he was so well mannered he never complained. Odie was of course partial to a treat but I didn't need to bribe him with food to groom him. He would tolerate what ever I did to him. Imagine his horror when I turned up at his house one day to groom him at home!! 

Looking back at his pictures he's had some questionable haircuts but we grew together over the years and him and his wonderful guardians followed me to Bedford which was lovely. I am forever grateful for them trusting me with their special boy for all that time.

I shall miss him so much. Sleep tight sweet boy. Sending so much love to his family as they try to navigate life without him. The hardest part. Rest in eternal peace Odie 🌈💔
