Welcome to Puppy Grooming School

Our Puppy Package is recommended to all new puppy clients and is extremely popular. It’s a series of 4 sessions designed to desensitise them to the sounds & sensations of grooming, in a calm and a positive way.

Session 1
You will have had your meet, treat & greet session in the salon with you and your puppy so that you can meet us and your puppy can get a little used to the sights, smells and sounds of the salon.

In their first session we will do some brushing and combing with your puppy on the table, gentle handling on the grooming table, introduce your puppy to the sound of clippers, practice stand and sit on the table for grooming and answer any questions you may have. Advice on correct brushes and combs, including techniques for you at home.

Session 2
A Bath & Blow Dry session; this gets them used to being bathed, the shampoo process, standing on a table along with the noise and sensation of the dryer, and being brushed and combed all over. There is a lot of table training involved in this session.

Each session builds on the previous session and is very successful! Usually sessions are spread 2-3 weeks apart, although we can reduce the time in-between if you wish.

Session 3- Mini Groom
This session includes everything that is involved in session 1 and 2 and more! It also involves a nail trim, paw pad trim, sanitary area trim and sc******ng around the feet and the eyes. This desensitises them to the sensations of the comb, the clippers and scissors.

Session 4
Their First Full groom - it includes all of the above as well as taking length off the coat with clippers and scissors to your desired length. We will also include a gentle introduction to ultrasonic teeth cleaning which is very important for dental health.

On completion your puppy with receive a certificate of completion and a goody bag.

Puppy Grooming School is open to puppies under six months of age, once vaccines are complete and must be completed by six months old.

Meet me Monday

Leaving Your Dog for the First Time? I Understand.

At The Grooming Studio, I know how emotional it can feel to hand your dog over to someone new. Years ago, I took a break from grooming when my daughter was young. During that time, I had to take my own dog, Keane, to a groomer for the very first time. Even though he was confident and used to being groomed, I still felt that anxious knot in my stomach. I didn’t know the groomer personally—I just trusted a recommendation and hoped for the best.

That experience stayed with me. She was lovely and he had a good time.

It reminded me what it’s like to be in your shoes—standing at the door, handing over your beloved dog to someone you don’t yet know.

That’s why I work hard to build trust with every client—both human and canine. I want you to feel confident knowing that:
• I’m fully trained and continue my education through courses and CPD.
• I’ve spent many years in the grooming industry.
• I have glowing testimonials from clients who once stood exactly where you are now.
• I genuinely care about the wellbeing of your dog—not just their haircut.

Why does this matter? Because your dog picks up on your energy. If you’re anxious, they will be too. But if you feel calm and confident leaving them with me, that reassurance travels down the lead.

And while not every dog loves being groomed, there’s a lot we can do to make the experience as pleasant as possible:

🐾 A little walk to stretch their legs
🐾 A toilet break before we begin
🐾 Clipping out matts instead of brushing them painfully
🐾 Short breaks during the groom to relax on a comfy bed
🐾 A gentle towel rub and a drink of water
🐾 And of course—a tasty treat or two!

These small things can make a big difference.

So whether it’s your dogs first visit, or you’re still getting to know me —please know that I get it. I’ve been there too. And I’ll always treat your dog with the same love and care I wanted for Keane.

With warmth,
Sally

🦷 Dental Health

Did you know 80% of dogs show signs of dental disease by the age of 3?
Dogs hide pain well — but it hurts them just like it hurts us.

Here are some simple things you can do at home to keep your dog’s smile healthy:
✨ Enzymatic toothpaste
✨ Seaweed powder (not suitable for dogs with hyperthyroidism)
✨ Soft chews & soft bones (ostrich, duck necks, chicken feet, fish scale sticks)
✨ Clean your dogs teeth daily at home (ask in studio for a demonstration)

Alongside regular ultrasound teeth cleaning with your pet professional, these small steps can make a huge difference.

🐶 Let’s work together to keep your dog pain-free, happy, and healthy.

👉 Book your dog’s next ultrasound teeth clean session at The Grooming Studio!

🛁 A Bath Isn’t Just a Bath… It’s the Foundation of Every Great Groom! ✨

One of the biggest misconceptions about dog grooming is that the haircut is the most important part of the groom.

In reality… the preparation is everything.

A beautiful finish starts in the bath. Using high-quality professional shampoos and conditioners, carefully selected for your dog’s individual coat type and skin needs, makes all the difference.

🐾 Every dog is different.
A Pomeranian’s dense double coat has completely different requirements to a Cockapoo’s wool coat, a Spaniel’s silky coat or a Labrador’s short, shedding coat. There is no “one shampoo fits all.”

Professional products are designed to:
✨ Cleanse the coat thoroughly without stripping its natural oils.
✨ Remove dirt, grease, allergens and dead skin.
✨ Nourish and hydrate the skin.
✨ Restore moisture and improve coat strength and elasticity.
✨ Help reduce tangles and matting.
✨ Leave the coat healthy, manageable and ready for drying and styling.

Conditioner is just as important as shampoo.

Many people think conditioner simply makes the coat soft, but it also helps replenish moisture after cleansing, smooths the hair cuticle, reduces friction between hairs and protects the coat from damage during drying and brushing.

One of the most overlooked parts of the bathing process is rinsing.

Even the best shampoo can cause problems if it isn’t rinsed away completely. Any residue left behind can irritate the skin, leading to:
• Itchiness
• Flaky or dandruff-like skin
• Greasy coats
• Skin irritation or reactions
• A coat that doesn’t dry or style properly

That’s why professional groomers spend so much time ensuring every trace of product is removed before conditioning and drying.

A clean, well-conditioned coat also dries faster, brushes through more easily and allows scissors and clipping equipment to glide smoothly through the hair, giving a much better finish.

💙 At The Grooming Studio, I believe healthy skin creates a healthy coat. Every bath is tailored to your dog’s coat type and individual needs because great grooming doesn’t start with the scissors…

It starts in the bath. 🛁🐶

The heat puts pressure on many of the underlying conditions in our pets. The kidneys have to go into overdrive, the heart faces overwhelming pressure, and the lungs are worked to Olympic level. Pets facing this heat can exacerbate underlying conditions. That heart murmur may explode into a whole array of symptoms, the low grade kidney disease could become advanced.

Keep them cool, preferably below 19c, make sure they’re hydrated using water fountains and multiple water sources, add electrolytes if appropriate, wet them with COLD water periodically, monitor their clinical signs, and DO NOT, for dogs, think about walking in this hot weather.

Meet me Monday.

Hi I’m Sally your local Canine Beautician. I trained at The London Academy of Grooming back in 1998 where I did my diploma in dog grooming. 28yrs later I’m still as passionate about making dogs beautiful with an emphasis on skin and coat care and specialising in small to medium doodles and breed specific styling.

I run my business from a little private studio in my garden, in the lovely village of Holyport nr Maidenhead. All grooming is completed in a secure and quiet environment. This particularly suits dogs which maybe nervous about grooming.

I’m fully insured with many years of CPD training, certification and I’m currently training for my level 3 OCN qualification.

I have a daughter called Charlotte and a dog and cat called Edith and Jade.

I look forward to seeing you with your dogs soon!

⭐️Cai-West Highland Terrier ⭐️

The lovely Cai was in The Studio today, Cai had just finished Puppy Grooming School and this is his second big boy groom. He really is doing so well learning the grooming process. He’s very young and responds well to treats and cuddles.

But wait what happened in the first photo?

Spot the boo-boo 🤦🏻‍♀️😱I could have kicked myself “nooooooooooo” when the comb guard flies off and you shave a patch with a 30 blade! OMG blend blend blend nope it’s there loud and proud! Luckily Cai has a very understanding owner.

Tomorrow’s a new day 😄🐶🐾🌞

“Did you know that shaving a Pomeranian can permanently damage their coat? Let me know if you’ve ever been given conflicting advice about double-coated breeds.”

🐾 Pomeranian & Double-Coated Breed Grooming Specialist 🐾

Pomeranians are beautiful dogs with a unique double to triple coat structure that requires specialist knowledge and care.

One of the most important things owners should understand is that these coats should NEVER be clipped, shaved, or cut into the undercoat (secondary coat) unless there is a genuine veterinary reason to do so.

The coat consists of:
✨ A protective outer coat (guard hairs/primary coat)
✨ A dense insulating undercoat (secondary coat)
✨ In some dogs, an additional layer creating the characteristic plush “triple coat” appearance

When the undercoat or guard coat is damaged through clipping or shaving, it can disrupt the coat’s natural growth cycle and protective function. This may result in “coat funk” (post-clipping alopecia), where the coat grows back patchy, woolly, discoloured, sparse, or sometimes never fully returns to its original condition.

The undercoat often grows back quickly, but the beautiful outer guard hairs can take years to recover—and in some cases may never return completely.

A healthy coat should be maintained through:
✔️ Correct brushing techniques
✔️ Thorough combing to remove loose undercoat
✔️ Professional de-shedding and coat maintenance
✔️ Appropriate bathing and drying methods
✔️ High-quality grooming products suitable for double-coated breeds

Contrary to popular belief, shaving does not help these breeds stay cooler. When excess undercoat is properly removed, air can circulate through the coat, helping regulate body temperature while still protecting the skin from heat, sunburn, and environmental damage.

At The Grooming Studio, I specialise in the care and maintenance of Pomeranians and other double-coated small breeds. I can advise on the correct brushes, combs, grooming tools, and home-care products to keep your dog’s coat healthy between professional grooming appointments.
