30/08/2026

September is looking full with only a couple of slots available later in the month, and October is filling fast.
If you don’t have your grooms planned for the rest of the year, now is the time to get organised!! Christmas grooms are open for booking 🎄

🐶 IMPORTANT UPDATE 🐶

Following the continued and significant increase in utilities, business costs, equipment servicing/maintenance, products and more, I am having to implement a price increase of £5 on all full grooms from 1st Sept 26.

🦷 Teeth cleaning and nail clipping costs remain the same.

Thank you for your continued support, loyalty and understanding —it is truly, massively appreciated more than you realise, now more than ever.

Many thanks,
Vicki 💜 🐶 🐾

Hello everyone! 👋

I’m currently getting quite a lot of last minute requests for grooming slots 😬

☀️ The summer/school holidays is always busier for me trying to fit everything in, and generally gets very full very quickly.

📔 I currently only have ONE appointment left in August on 17th. Otherwise, I am booking from 7th September.

Please message me if you’d like to take the last remaining August slot, or if you would like to book in September.

Thank you 🤩
💜 🐶 🐾

🌾 GRASS SEED SEASON 🌾
I’ve seen quite a few of these pesky little blighters lately coming out of coats whilst in the bath or being dried, which tells me it’s time to increase vigilance!
Please check your dogs over regularly - ears, between the toes, legs, groin. Grass seeds can get anywhere and can be so troublesome!

This week, my lovely little Molly-dog turned 10!
She is the inspiration and poster girl for Shampooches, she is the best little welcome for your dogs arrival and she helps them feel better if they’re a little nervous. She’s so used to all the comings and goings, it doesn’t phase her at all. She will often be seen sunbathing on a sunny day or keeping me company in the salon if the weather turns. She’s the one you all seem to want to take home! 🥰😂 Happy birthday my best girl! 🐶 🐾 💜

Let’s talk teeth 🦷
I took my little Molly dog to the vets today for her annual jabs and on the reception desk I saw a poster for their scale and polish service, advertised for £350.
It got me thinking that it would be at least an annual thing, if not 6 monthly, and I base that on how quickly I see dogs teeth build plaque up.
So potentially, up to £700 a year on 2x scale and polish.

The average number of grooming appointments your dog has with me is around 8 per year, based on 6-8 weekly schedules. My Emmi-Pet Ultrasonic teeth clean is £15 per session, and if that is done, that is £120 a year - for regular maintenance and clean teeth every time!

Have a look in your dogs mouth and let me know…do they have plaque build up? Are their gums red and inflamed? Are they getting food caught between teeth? If you answered yes, consider adding an Emmi-Pet (or basic teeth clean) to each groom to work towards preventing and combatting the bacteria that could lead to future dental problems.

My sister is running a raffle to raise funds for a defibrillator for her nursery in Cheshunt and the local area. Lots and lots of amazing prizes (including a dog bath with yours truly!!) please support if you can by buying some raffle tickets.

There will be a poster on my gate with a QR code you can scan too.

Thank you in advance 🐶 💜 🐾

LETS TALK TEETH 🦷
How often do you look inside your dogs mouth? Do you clean your dogs teeth?
Regular removal of plaque and tartar can help prevent more serious issues such as gum disease.
The Emmi-Pet Ultrasonic Toothbrush is a silent, non-vibrating tooth brushing system that omits ultrasonic waves which help kill harmful bacteria which can lead to bad breath.
I can offer this service as an add on to every groom or as a stand alone service, please ask me for more details 🪥 🦷 🐶

This guy stole my heart this morning. Gorgeous Red, an ex-racing greyhound came in for a groom and teeth clean and he was just a complete angel ❤️
