Thanks to all the pups (and their humans).
We witnessed transformations worthy of a reality show. From “Swamp Dog” to “Show Stopper” The dryers were humming, the shampoo was flowing, scissors were snipping 🛁🐶 ✂️🧼, and the clippers were buzzing as we pampered your pups.
Everyone left looking (and smelling) fabulous!

One year ago, we stood before this building for the first time—its walls full of stories we hadn’t yet heard, its silence echoing with possibility.

We didn’t know then how much it would come to mean. That moment marked more than just a visit; it was the quiet beginning of something new—unseen, unspoken, but undeniably stirring.

Sometimes, we don’t realise we’re at the start of a new chapter until we’re already turning its pages.

Handsome boy Flight came to us for a show groom.

Show dog grooming is a highly detailed and specific form of grooming. It is focused on enhancing a dog’s appearance to meet specific breed standards set by The Royal Kennel Club.

It is important to keep the breed standard in mind when showcasing the dog’s best features. For example a Flat Coat Retriever needs no volume in the coat and a light natural trim to keep him in great show condition.

Lovely Merlin comes to us regularly for a maintenance bath and tidy between his full groom appointments. This ensures his curly coat stays in the best condition 🛁 🐶
