☀️ HEATWAVE SALON NOTICE ☀️
We are currently looking into air conditioning for the salon, however due to planning permission this may take a little while. These rules will still apply regardless, as your pets’ safety always comes first 💜
We always closely monitor temperatures and may open earlier and close earlier to avoid the hottest parts of the day.
On particularly hot days, we will not book in:
• Brachycephalic breeds (Shih Tzus, French Bulldogs, Pugs, Cavaliers,Persians etc)
• Puppies
• Elderly pets
• Any pets more at risk of heat-related illness
Many people do not realise these pets are at a much higher risk of heat stroke, even during short journeys or normal grooming appointments.
If you have booked online for one of the above pets during very hot weather, your appointment may need to be rearranged to a cooler day for their safety.
🐾 Please DO NOT walk your dog to the salon during high temperatures. Once temperatures reach 20°C+, pavements can become unsafe and dangerous for dogs.
Any dogs walked to the salon showing signs of heat stress will be sent home and the booking fee will be lost.
Also — if anyone would prefer earlier appointments such as 7am starts, please comment below 👇
Me & Sophie have discussed changing our opening hours during the summer months, particularly Wednesdays and Fridays, to help keep pets cooler and more comfortable.
