And that's it folks !! I started here at The Art shack with the Calm groomer 3 years ago grooming beautiful Pixie and I finish with beautiful Pixie.
It's been an absolute pleasure and an honour to groom your beautiful Hairy monkeys and give them the time and space they deserve.
I do hope this is not the end for me grooming as I do enjoy it so much, who knows what Scotland will bring to me.
If your free do pop by and have some cake on our leaving party on Saturday 6th June at 2.00pm next week.
Big love to you all and take care Pen ###
I will keep this page up for a bit as there are lots of your beautiful dogs on it. ❤️🐶❤️

Babs she's come a long way from the dog I first met a few years back that would spin and screech while plunging at you.
I feel what ever you do in life should come from a place of compassion and calmness no-one knows your story on how people have treated you or what trauma you hold it's the same for animals they hold experiences the same good and bad.
Trust, repetition and calmness is the key.
Top tip; if you have a problem with trimming or grooming an area of your dog don't over work the area keep switching areas of the body, some dogs are calmer in the bath so you could trim these area that they don't like in the bath. (Nails is a good one
Babs is the calmest when groomed in your arms and kept close to you. Well done babs.
Dogs teach us so much about when to give space and you never stop learning from them. ❤️🐶

Many pet owners feel anxious about taking their dog out for a quick wee during a heatwave, worried they might be judged, or, someone posting a pic of them on socials slating them — all without people realising they don’t even have a garden.

I know that feeling myself because I don’t have a garden either! ☀️
And it's impossible to ask a dog to hold it in for 12+ hours... and not healthy either! 😔

But even without outdoor space, there are still safe and simple ways to allow them to relieve themselves.

Here are practical, safe ways to take your dog out during a heatwave if you don’t have a garden:

1. Go very early or very late ⏰️

Many know this already, but take your dog out for the longer walks first thing in the morning or late at night when temperatures are lower and pavements have cooled.

2. Stick to short toilet breaks only 👀

Skip walks and keep daytime outings brief. Just enough for a wee or poo, then head straight back inside.

3. Always check the ground ✋️

Place the back of your hand on the pavement for 5–7 seconds. If it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for paws. I carry my 2 pugs to their "wee wee spot".

4. Stay in shaded routes only 🌳

Choose routes with trees, shade, or grassy areas rather than exposed pavements or roads.

5. Bring water with you 💧

Carry a bottle of cool water and offer it where needed.

6. Use cooling support 🚿

Pop your pup in the tub and give them a rinse with cool water before and after their quick toilet break. I do this for my 2 dogs and it makes a world of difference!

7. Use indoor toileting options temporarily if they know how.

My old pug Chloe knows how to use puppy pads so she has not gone out in these temps. 🌞
