Hi everyone 👋

I know It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything shop wise. I haven’t felt like posting since loosing my boy, Aries, last month 💙

However there was something important I was meant to address soon after his passing, I think now is the right time.

So by now most of you will know that I have recently sold my dog grooming business, Aries Grooming Parlour 🚿

After opening the grooming parlour 2 years ago, I decided at the end of last year that I wanted to move away from the dog grooming world!

The truth is it’s been challenging to run two shops by myself over the last few years. With many unwanted staff changes often impacting the business, & not being a dog groomer myself, I often felt everything was out of my control. Also with Aries poor health for the last year of his life, the idea was to spend as much time with him as possible. Sadly that didn’t work out.

However I’m very proud of what I had built up, & the regular client list I had gained. So rather than closing a decent business & also not wanting to let all my customers down, I decided to sell it to someone else, an actual dog groomer who could make it their own!

Please give a warm welcome to Hannah, the new owner of Aries Grooming Parlour, which has been newly named Dogsy’s Groom Room LTD 🐶

Hannah started working for me in December last year, & by January she asked me if I would be happy to sell the business to her. We get on so well, & due to her already being my clients groomer it felt like the best decision for everyone! Importantly to me, this process has been a smooth transition for my former customers, who can simply still book their grooms in store or on the Booksy app.

I wish Hannah all the best of luck. I’m still next door for support, & I know that your four legged friends will be in the best of hands 🫶🐾

I want to clarify that Aries Dog Boutique is NOT closing!

I deeply miss my sidekick, Aries, but I am excited to start this new chapter, bringing my full attention back to the shop, with fab new brands & products to be introduced in the coming months!

I know Aries would want his Daddy to carry on.
After all, this is his legacy 🐶❤️

There are so many more things I wanted to say on this video, but tbh my head is like mush atm, so I’ll say some more here…

Please excuse the puffy eyes, I’ve not been sleeping very well since my Aries sadly passed away last Wednesday.
The nights are the worst, I miss how he used to sleep on my head and I really miss his snoring. To me it was soothing & therapeutic, something only a dog owner could understand.

This really is an appreciation video to everyone who has reached out to me since loosing my little soul mate.
The pain & loss has been unbearable, but so many of my customers & friends have kept me going, & have checked in daily to see how I am doing.

I want to say a special thank you to the whole team at
Jonathan was Aries vet for the last 7 months of his life. Thank you for looking after my boy and continuing to find ways of helping him as much as possible.

Lastly I want to answer some common questions I have been asked.
I’m definitely not looking to get another dog any time soon, I just want to grieve Aries in my own time & remember the good times. Hopefully one day my heart will be ready for another dog, but I have no desire right now.
I also have no plans to close Aries Dog Boutique, it is my livelihood, & I only renewed the lease last Summer.
This is Aries’s legacy & I want to make him proud of his Daddy 🥹♈️🐶

My first Birthday without you hurts more than I can say 💔😔

You have been gone for nearly a week now, I miss you like crazy, & it still hasn’t sunk in or feel real that you are gone.
Processing that I won’t ever see you again is the toughest pain I’ve ever felt.

Tears still fill my eyes as I type this.
I don’t know when or if they will ever stop, but just know my unconditional love for you will never end!

I’m so grateful this lovely photo of us was taken by one of my best friends just 5 days before Aries passed 🫶

I just want to say thank you to the overwhelming response I’ve had & am still having on my last post about Aries. To see how much he meant to all my customers & people who have met him in the shop over the past 10+ years has been very touching.
Thank you also for all the cards, flowers, gifts & hugs 🫂

My sweet baby boy, I truly hope & believe that one day, I will see you again 💙🐶

With heavy tears in my eyes as I type this incredibly heartbreaking post, I’m devastated to announce the most painful loss I’ve ever experienced in my life.

My beautiful baby boy, Aries, unexpectedly passed away infront of my eyes from a heart attack, on Wednesday 8th April 💔

We were at the vets at the time, where Aries was being checked over as normal, & suddenly out of no where, his little body just gave way!
A horrifying image I will never get out of my head, my Mum & I were in total shock. I felt so helpless not being able to do anything to help him, it all happened so quickly!
I said to him, please don’t leave me, not yet, but he was gone in seconds. I just hope he heard me say, Daddy loves you!
My vet told me that Aries wouldn’t have suffered or felt any pain, which at least gives me some comfort.

Ironically, that same morning I had been chatting on the phone to Vets2Home, about how I wanted Aries life to end with me peacefully at home when the time was right.
This wasn’t how I imagined my baby boy to leave me, but it was his way of telling me it was his time to go.

It’s only been just over a month since we received the worst news that Aries had Bowel Cancer.
He was so strong & courageous, fighting on since October last year when he first showed signs of a stomach bug.

Aries died exactly a year to the day since we first visited Noel Fitzpatrick, where he had an MRI scan & we started our difficult journey with his IVDD. After the success of his surgery in August last year, I documented to you all how well his back legs were recovering.
I can’t tell you how gutted I am that he won’t get to enjoy more years of running free in the sun!

I’m also incredibly sad that not only Aries didn’t make it to my Birthday next week, but also because he has been taken from me in my ARIES zodiac month.
A time that means so much to me, & of course what I named my little Pug after. A little dog that defined my life, my business, & ultimately gave me all the unconditional love back in return.

Daddy loves you so very much, my son.
I miss your cuddles already, I’ll never stop loving you!
You’ll be in my heart forever & your legacy will live on at Aries Dog Boutique ❤️🐾

A post I never wanted to do or say out loud.

Last week, after 5 months of constant vet visits, blood tests, scans and weekly struggles with eating & sickness, my beautiful boy, Aries, has sadly been diagnosed with Cancer 😔

What we thought was Inflammatory Bowel Disease back in December, has progressed even more 3 months later.
Aries has been on Steroids every day since then, which if I’m honest have kept him eating and alive.

As most of you know, Aries had major surgery last year in the Summer for IVDD. It was a success, saving his back legs from becoming paralysed and it also stopped him from becoming incontinent. I want to strongly point out I have been told by the vets and specialists, that the two conditions are not linked, Aries would have got cancer either way. I don’t regret it at all and would do it all over again if it meant giving Aries quality of life, for whatever time he has left.

I have been told he could have up to 3-6 months, depending on how well he reacts to his new liquid medicine, which will hopefully stop him from feeling nauseous, and help him digest his food better. We really need to try get some weight back on Aries, as he now weighs just 5.9kg.

I am obviously absolutely heartbroken, and can’t help but feel cheated out of the extra time (and years) I hoped Aries and I would have together after his operation last year 💔

My aim now is to keep Aries as comfortable as possible, try get some weight back on him, and pray he will make his 11th Birthday in July! I know my efforts could be in vain, but I really want to try stay optimistic for him.

Aries is currently in good spirits, pain free and eating relatively well. He’s still barking and very animated in the shop, this horrible disease hasn’t taken my boy just yet!

We fight and carry on 🐶❤️

When you don’t share your ice cream! 😩😤😭

If looks could kill! Our Aries was not happy with Ben today for not giving him a lick of our yummy peanut butter ice cream! 😒🍦🤣

Hopefully there will be more warmer ice cream days ahead for your pups, & Aries 🤤
