Such sad news. Sleep well fluffy boy ❤️❤️❤️

Here he is, our little snappy crocodile, Reg 🐊💛

Reg has been in for his full groom again today and I’ve got to say, he was fairly good this time! He has prescription medication from the vets to help calm and settle him for grooming, which really does make a huge difference for him. Honestly, I don’t think I’d be able to groom him safely at all without it.

He still absolutely hates the whole process bless him, but he is much calmer now, which makes the experience far safer and less stressful for him overall.

I think he looks particularly cute this time with his lovely fluffy ears and those gorgeous bright brown eyes 🥹✨

See you again soon, Reg 💕

And here is my girl Nala after her full groom. She absolutely hates it! 🤷‍♀️❤️🐾

Willow popped by for her full groom today after her Woofs Walked adventure with us. 💕🐾

Willow is one of our long-standing regulars for walking, grooming and boarding, and I’ve actually known this lovely girl for getting on for almost six years now through the services I offer. She really is such a gorgeous, sweet natured girl.

Today, during her nail trim, we unfortunately caught the quick slightly on one of her back claws. The “quick” is the sensitive blood vessel inside the nail, and sometimes, especially with mixed-coloured or darker claws where visibility is reduced, it can be difficult to judge exactly where it ends. If a dog moves suddenly during clipping — particularly dogs who are a little fidgety or nervous about having their nails done — this can occasionally happen, even in professional grooming salons and veterinary practices.

Thankfully, whilst it can look alarming because claws tend to bleed quite a bit, it is not considered a medical emergency or harmful injury. We applied professional anticoagulant powder immediately to stop the bleeding, which worked well. Because Willow is an older girl, it needed a couple of reapplications before it fully settled.

To make sure she travelled home comfortably, I also sent Willow home with a blanket to protect the car just in case she licked the claw and it restarted slightly on the journey home.

She was otherwise an absolute superstar for her groom and left looking beautiful as always. 💖✂️

See you tomorrow, Willow, for your walkies with the Woofs Walked crew. 🐾💕

The gorgeous Teddy and Dottie were in with me today for their full grooms, and as always, they were absolute superstars from start to finish. ✂️🛁✨

These two are now officially part of our Woofs Walked gang as well, so now we’ve finished up making them look all fluffy and fabulous, we’re about to head off to collect their walking friends and go on today’s adventure together. 🐾

Honestly, could their day get any better? Groom, cuddles, adventures and friends… living the absolute dream really. 💕

Flax checked in today for his full groom with me at Woofs Washed Dog Grooming. He was a little bit nervous to start with, bless him, but overall he’s been a very good boy.

He wasn’t too impressed with having his legs and feet done and kept trying to pull them away and have a little fidget about, but we got there in the end with plenty of reassurance and patience.

We also discovered a lovely juicy tick hiding behind his extremely fluffy eye fur just above his right eye, which was safely removed with owner permission. Definitely a sneaky little hitchhiker!

Flax is actually my mum’s neighbour’s dog, so I see him quite often when I pop round to visit her, which made it extra lovely to have him in the grooming room today.

Well done, Flax. You were a good boy, and I hope to see you back at Woofs Washed again soon. ✂️🛁🐾

Here is the gorgeous little Gizmo 💙

He was in today for his very first full groom with me. His mum was understandably a bit nervous about how he’d get on and didn’t want anything too drastic, so we kept it nice and gentle with a really good tidy up.

I removed some matting from behind both of his ears and from his lovely little tail, then he had a double bath, full blow dry, his eyes and ears cleaned, and his claws clipped.

And he was an absolute little star 🌟

It was so lovely to meet you, Gizmo, and I’m really looking forward to seeing you again 🐾

Milo was back today for his full groom and he looks (and smells!) absolutely gorgeous 🥰 I think his mum is going to be very pleased when she sees him later.

He was such a good boy throughout. It’s definitely not his favourite thing — especially having his legs and paws done — but he let me crack on with it and we got there in the end. Plenty of little strokes and even a cheeky treat helped along the way 💕

Hagrid & Dobby were back with me today for their full grooms 💙

I’ve known these two for quite a while now and we’ve built such a lovely bond. It really shows during their grooms too. Hagrid usually has to be fully sedated at the vets just to have his claws cut… but with me, although he’s not a massive fan, he just stands there and lets me get on with it 🐾

Dobby’s the same – he’s had vet visits for his claws before where they could only manage a few, but with me he settles and allows it to be done without all that stress.

I don’t like to blow my own trumpet… but building trust and taking things at their pace really does make all the difference 💕

Their dad didn’t realise I offer claw trims in between grooms too – just £12 a visit – which is going to save him a lot (and keep these two much more comfortable in between appointments).

Always so lovely to see you both boys… see you again soon 🐶✨
