Shampooches Dog Grooming

25/05/2026

Hi everyone this is a difficult post for me to do but sadly I’ve not been left with much choice and think it’s time I put my health first
These past few weeks at work have been very challenging, Im in agony with my back and now to top it off I can barely walk with my swollen feet and ankles which is really making working long hours and being on my feet all day very difficult and is so painful.
I’ve been advised by my midwife and doctor to take it easy and keep my feet elevated as much as I can for these last 3 weeks of my pregnancy which unfortunately means I will have to cut my working hours right back for these last two weeks which I feel absolutely terrible about as these last two weeks are my busiest as I’ve tried to squeeze as many of you in before my maternity starts.
Anyone who is happy to cancel their appointments due to dog not being desperate or you have another groomer who is able to get you booked in please let me know it would be greatly appreciated
I guess I’ve been a little naive with this being my first pregnancy thinking working to 39 weeks would be fine
Sorry for the long post I hope you all understand 🫶

Just wanted to put a little post up as my maternity leave is coming up so quickly just 6 weeks left at work and 7 weeks until my due date 🩷
My last working week is first week in June and I’m hoping to return to work beginning of September I will only be part time when I return and I will have to have set working days which I don’t know what days they will be yet until I get my nursery days confirmed
As you can imagine I’m going to be super busy when I return I will post a reopening date soon as I have one and appointments will be first come first served so please keep following my page for any updates

Since I’m going to be off over the summer I would recommend you get booked in with another groomer as I’d hate for your beloved fur babies to suffer with being overdue a groom due to my absence
Groomers I’d recommend
Home salons for a more quieter relaxed space
Naomi’s Puppy Club
Taylor's Dog Grooming

Also the My Dog Barber - Salons are also fab and there are a few salons around Newcastle
There is also the new salon opening in ponteland on the front street which I’m not sure if it has a opening date yet

Also I’ve had quite a few missed appointments recently please can you check your appointments or message me if you are unsure of them as I can’t guarantee another appointment for you as I’m fully booked now until my maternity leave

Anyone needing more information or want me to send over instructions regarding grooming information for new groomers please let me know

Thank you all again for all the lovely well wishes and I’ve getting some lovely gifts which is so appreciated 🫶

❗️Customer notice please read❗️

As from 1st April I will be introducing a small price increase of £2 per groom. Sadly this is something I’ve had to put in place to help cover increased costs of products and utilities. I hope you all understand and any worries regarding price change please give me a message.

Also due to an increase in ' no shows' of clients who don't attend pre booked appointments there will be a charge of 50% of the groom cost to the client. This is to recover part of my loss. Clients who can't attend will not be effected by this id they have given minimum 24 hours notice so I have the opportunity to fill the appointment slot.

Thank you for cooperation and continuing custom it really is greatly appreciated

📍CUSTOMER NOTICE PLEASE READ 📍

I know the majority of you are all booked in for Christmas and have been for sometime now. But sadly due to Chloe no longer working for me and unable to work any extra shifts to help out I will now need to do my Christmas diary all over again.
As your all aware I can only work within dobbies opening hours now so it’s simply impossible for me to do 10-11 dogs in one day on my own which i currently have booked in most days leading up to Christmas.

I will re organise my diary the best way I can and do my very best to get everyone in before I close for the Christmas holidays.
Anyone who is flexible with appointments please let me know that will be a massive help.
I’m really sorry for the inconvenience this may cause anyone as I know we all love our pre Christmas grooms.
I am going to sit over the next few days organising appointments and will be in touch if your appointment does need changed ps this could take a while so please be patient 🙈
