I’m asking for your help again folks, after (hopefully) having found Tank the Frenchie a new home which he goes to this weekend 🤞🏻 I’ve been asked to help Rehome this beautiful boy who needs a new 🏡 due to his owner’s health,
14 month old Labrador cross collie therefore very energetic needs alot of training & exercise, not castrated (vets advice) loves swimming, good with kids & very friendly but see below 👇 , lives with a cat.
Cons;
can jump up alot and nip at times with excitement which is why he needs further training
—
I have groomed this boy from a puppy and although bonkers he is very loving & intelligent -in the right hands very trainable

Hey folks,
Sorry we’ve been super quiet on the socials recently, the work rate has NOT let up even with the summer vanishing on us super fast 💨
This little guy is Tank a 1 year old male Frenchie who is looking for a new sofa to call his own as his mum is working too many hours now to give him what he needs.
Tank is up to date with vaccines, worming & flea treatment.
Please get in touch and I can put you in contact with his owner if what you can offer Tank is suitable
💙 thanks guys

🚨 URGENT 🚨
This morning, the first client of the day was VERBALLY ABUSIVE and damaged our shop property.
Why? Because HE was late for his dogs hair cut…
Because of his own mistake, myself and my team were subjected to a barrage of swearing and abuse, intimidation and aggression
Dog groomers, despite common belief, are united. We TALK. We are a community. Be rude and vile, abusive to one of us and the community will stand together. We will NOT allow this behaviour to us or our colleagues!
This behaviour is NOT welcome here full stop.

It's that time of year again where acorns will going to be flooding the floors and could become tempting to your dog. It's important to remember the dangers of acorns when they become ingested ⚠️
Did you know that acorns (and the entire Oak tree) is poisonous to dogs? 🌳
Here’s the signs and symptoms of acorn poisoning in dogs. Be sure to save this post for later and share to raise awareness! 🐶

NOMV ‘not one more vet’
Did you know veterinary is the profession with the highest su***de rate? I’ve personally had colleagues whom have committed su***de, going from putting to sleep a sick, or even unwanted pet.. to the next appointment a waggy puppy and excited pet parents. Switching your feelings on & off at the drop of a hat to remain professional. Just one of the things which takes its toll.
Support your vets, nurses & support staff 💙
Veterinary professionals give so much of themselves, emotionally, physically, and mentally, to care for our animals, yet their efforts often go unseen and underappreciated.
A kind word goes a long way.

🚨 Can I please remind people of our opening hours 🚨
Please be reminded that calls, messages & all other enquiries may or MAY NOT be answered outside of these times as we do have a family beyond the business, this week I have been met with several unsavoury characters who think it is ok to expect a response gone 9.30pm at night and get abusive when they don’t.
I am always willing to help out in a genuine emergency for advice if your dog has an accident etc being a veterinary nurse but this is where possible & not something which should come as an expectation.
I also cannot answer the phone ( & shouldn’t be expected to) when I am dropping my children to school!
We are incredibly busy, as are all good groomers.. and there is a wait for appointments (current availability from August 1st) dogs hair grows all year round & as such needs grooming all year round so please plan ahead & not just when the sun is beaming down on us 😅

Hi everyone, I thought id add a little ‘about me’ section for anyone wanting to know more...
I’m Sarah and I qualified as a veterinary nurse in 2013 after starting off at a vets in Southampton in 2010, as a qualified vet nurse I am also registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. Prior to that I completed a 2 year national diploma in animal management at Sparsholt College for which I achieved the highest grade possible of Triple Distinction.
I’ve worked in various vet practices all over the country and I am lucky enough to have been involved in some pretty amazing things, like surgically removing five rubber ducks from a naughty staffies’ stomach in the middle of the night one weekend!
I’ve worked in referral centres and as a senior nurse of a large Hampshire based hospital but since having my son I decided to branch out and train as a dog groomer with Jazmin at the multi award winning dog grooming salon known as ‘Shampoodle’.
Since training there I have been lucky enough to have been offered a position grooming under Shampoodles’ roof, its amazing to be part of such a highly recommended salon where I was a client before training.
Therefore you can find me at Shampoodle most days bathing, clipping and beautifying your beloved pooches which I can honestly say I LOVE!
So if you have any questions, would like a chat or to book please pop me a message or give me a call on 07599968573
Lastly but by no means least, thankyou to each and everyone of you who have supported me in my new venture, that goes to people and pooches!
