'petits chiens'

04/05/2020

For some odd reason, our earlier important post has disappeared into FaceBook cyberspace ????
A brief synopsis:
1. It is unlikely that we can open for business in our new premises The Elite Groomers, Pineview Business Park, Firhouse Road, before 8th June
2. If we can, we will
3. It is cruel on dogs and us
4. We have a waiting list of some 400 dogs and a total Client list of 1200+ dogs
5. With the best will in the world, we can only cater for 20 - 25 dogs per day and this is a challenge
6. Dogs with a regular, scheduled routine, will be given priority and we have listed these
7. Dogs, in our opinion, who are suffering, will be dealt with as a priority
8. Please be patient
9. Dogs are our passion and life, it's not just a Business
10. We will do the very best we can
11. Please understand, as I am sure you will, that we can only do so many every day
12. We cannot just squeeze in an extra dog, regardless of pleading to do so

Please, please understand our dilemma. It will be appreciated

Aisling (our Girl Friday) is managing all booking and posts via FaceBook, theelitegroomers also by phone:

Could I please ask you to txt her on 087-3343084 for booking enquiries etc

Too many chefs..........!!!!!

If you, as dog owners, have any questions with regard to coat care (not veterinary issues, please) during this Grooming lock down period, please feel free to post on this page and we will do our best to help.

Hope you all enjoying this rather strange Easter Sunday.
Sadly, Groomers are on lock down at the moment and it's anyone's guess as to when we will be allowed open. This is especially frustrating for us, as we are looking forward to welcoming you to our new premises.
An unfortunate consequence of this, is that dog coats may/will grow out of hand. We can only suggest that you do your best to brush/comb/brush/comb and brush/comb again in order to prevent serious matting. When we do open, please expect, that with our best will in the world, we probably have to cut your dog's coat very short. Our priority is the comfort of your dog and de-matting is not a realistic option. Please bear with us, in this. Dave, Mark and Team

This pic was taken a year back. Who would ever have thought that he would have to cross the rainbow bridge yesterday. RIP Pukis. Miss you sweet boy.

Important Owner Notifications. We are closing on Friday 27th March and will re-open (under our new identity The Elite Groomers) when it is safe to to do. Thank you all for your years of loyalty and look forward to seeing you at the other side of this awful situation. Stay safe. Dave and Team

It is with deep regret that I have had to make the final decision to close this coming Friday evening for 2 weeks, at least. All in the interests of Staff and Owners, despite us taking very stringent health precautions. As Sylvester said "We will be back" and hopefully in our new premises. All Owners will be notified and it is only 5 minutes from here. I attach a document which might help you to keep your 'Fluffy' in trim, until then. Stay safe out there, and we look forward to seeing you all soon. Dave and Team

I don't need to explain WHY. But it is most likely that we will need to cease Dog Grooming at the end of this week, until further notice. Will keep you posted. Dogs will survive, I am more concerned about Staff and Owners. None of us are in a good place at the moment. Please keep safe. Dave & Team

Shorten your working hours and admit only urgent cases. All staff should wear protective equipment (aligned with national advice from health authorities). All staff to wash hands regularly and thoroughly (after each pet or owner contact) and avoid touching their eyes, nose, and mouth. Keep at least....
