Please don’t walk your dogs in this heat, early in the morning or late at night 🙏🏼

A dog has never died from missing a walk, but your dog COULD die from heatstroke❗️

🚨Alert ahead of predicted heatwave🚨
When the temperature rises, unfortunately so does the risk of heatstroke in our pets.

Some tips on how to keep your pets safe in hot weather includes:

- If you have an active pet then indoor enrichment such as food puzzles can be useful to avoid walking in the heat!🧩

- Walk your pets at cooler times of day, first thing in the morning or after the sun has set!☀️

- Provide access to water and shade at all times!⛱️

Heat stroke in animals can be fatal so knowing the signs and seeking emergency care as soon as possible can be life saving!

Signs of heat exhaustion may include:
🐾Excessive panting
🐾Vomiting
🐾Drooling
🐾Weakness or collapse

If you notice any of these symptoms, call us on 0161 794 4100 immediately.

Whilst being cautious and mindful we hope you enjoy the lovely weather!🤍💚

WHAT YOU DON'T SEE AT THE DOG GROOMERS.......
You dropped your dog off at the salon and picked them up few hours later - fluffy, fresh, and happy. But what you saw was just the tip of the iceberg.

You didn’t see your groomer arrive early to open up the salon, disinfect tools, lay out fresh towels, and check the day’s appointments. You didn’t see them look over your dog from nose to tail before even lifting a brush - checking the coat condition, skin, eyes, ears, nails, and weight.

You didn’t see the careful way they clipped around a wriggly paw, or how they paused to let your dog calm down during the bath. You didn’t notice the matting hidden beneath your dog’s topcoat, or the way the groomer worked slowly to avoid hurting the skin beneath it.

You weren’t there when they spotted a red patch of irritated skin, or a small lump you hadn’t noticed. You heard them gently mention it to you at collection - not to worry you, but because they genuinely care about your dog’s wellbeing.

And after you left, you didn’t see the clean-down , the floor swept, tables cleaned, blades oiled, messages replied to, notes written up for your next visit, and laundry on again.

All of that… for a price that’s often lower than what you’d pay for your own haircut. And your hairdresser?
They don’t have to bathe you, clip your nails, or hold you still while you try to bite the brush.

The truth is ……. dog grooming is so much more than a haircut.

It’s about health, hygiene, comfort, and trust. It’s about knowing dog anatomy, coat types, skin conditions, behaviour management, handling skills, and safe sc******ng techniques. It’s a profession that takes training, practice, and patience.
Most groomers got into this work because they love dogs. But that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be paid fairly for the physical, emotional, and skilled work they do every single day.

If your dog leaves their groomer happy, healthy and looking good - it’s not by luck. It’s because you have got a good groomer.
So next time, take a moment to thank them. Leave a review.

Tip them if you can. And above all - don’t undervalue them.
They’re doing far more than just washing the dog.
