🌟 A little business update 🌟

From 14th September, I’ll be starting full time university, which means I’ll be reducing my working days & hours considerably.

Going forward, I’ll be working around 2–3 days per month, mainly Saturdays. However, this will vary from month to month depending on my university timetable & requirements.

Because of this, instead of opening my diary around 8 weeks in advance as usual, I’ll now only be making bookings for the month ahead. I completely understand that this may be inconvenient for some of you, but until I know my university schedule, I simply won’t know which days I’ll be able to offer appointments.

Unfortunately, this also means I won’t be able to continue seeing all of my clients as regularly as I have done. 💔 I’m hoping to see as many of you as I possibly can, but my availability will be very limited.

If you already have a September appointment booked with me, your appointment is safe 😊

Please bear with me while I get everything organised & work out my availability each month. If you’d like to book in, please be patient with me while I figure things out! 😬😂

And finally… THANK YOU. 💜

I genuinely appreciate the support from every single one of my clients, past & present, which has allowed me to continue our family business for the past 15 years. That support means more to me than I can put into words, & I’m so grateful that you’ve allowed me to do what I love for so long. 🥹💜

I’m not disappearing — just having to juggle a new chapter alongside the business! 📚✨

If you have any questions, please feel free to send me a message. 💌

Thank you for your patience, understanding & continued support. 💜

Please be careful with your pups 🌷

I wanted to share something important following a recent and very sad incident, where a member of my pack passed away within 3 hours of visiting a well known local tulip festival 💔

🌷 Tulips (especially the bulbs) are toxic to dogs if ingested, and what’s really important to understand is how easily this can happen - particularly in places like tulip fields or large floral events.

Tulip bulbs sit just under the soil and can be very appealing for dogs to sniff (they often have a slightly sweet smell). Even a small amount - whether that’s chewing a bulb, plant material, or licking contaminated soil from paws - can lead to serious and sometimes life-threatening symptoms.

In large displays, where there are thousands or even millions of bulbs, the risk is much higher due to:
• disturbed soil from footfall
• decomposing leaves and flowers
• exposed or shallow bulbs
• lots of exciting smells encouraging digging and mouthing

⚠️ Symptoms to watch for:
• Drooling or foaming at the mouth
• Vomiting or diarrhoea
• Lethargy or weakness
• Loss of coordination / wobbliness
• Heavy or rapid breathing
• Sensitivity or unusual behaviour (including agitation or aggression)
• In more severe cases: tremors, seizures, or collapse

Some symptoms can come on quickly, while others may develop over a few hours.

If you notice any of the above, or suspect your dog may have ingested part of a tulip, seek veterinary advice immediately - it’s always better to act early.

My heart goes out to the family of my pack member, and I hope by sharing this we can help prevent any other dogs from experiencing something similar. This isn’t to cause alarm, but to raise awareness so owners can make informed, safe choices for their dogs 🐾

Please feel free to share to help spread awareness 🤎
