Wishing all of our fantastic clients a wonderful year ahead.This year was the best of our lives welcoming our daughter Anna but it was also hard at times.
I had hyperemesis throughout my pregnancy. I honestly don't know how I got through some of those work days but I'm so proud that I kept going and never cancelled appointments as I never wanted to let anyone down. This only made it more heartbreaking when I lost a few clients when I announced my pregnancy.
Being self employed and working so hard for so many years to build a business, I wasn't sure if I would have a job to return to after my leave or if I'd be starting again from scratch. I was scared and anxious all throughout my maternity leave as I wanted to enjoy this brand new time in my life learning to be a mammy but I also felt obligated to my clients.
When I returned I was absolutely blown away to discover that my amazing clients stayed loyal and returned to me. It was honestly the most incredible feeling and I can never show just how much it meant to me and the joy I felt welcoming you all back again. We had an amazing Christmas rush just like any other year and I enjoyed every second pampering all of your beautiful doggies again. I can't wait for the year ahead and my family and i thank you with all of our hearts for your patience and your continued support this past year. It really was the best year. Love Karen, Chris & Baby Anna. 🩷

We travelled all the way to The North of England Scottish Terrier Breed Club Championship Show on the weekend where our Bonnie won the Bitch CC & Res Best in Show. To win at a breed specialty show in the UK under a breed specialist judge in a big entry is an absolute dream come true for any show kennel. Bonnie is groomed by Karen
