🎅🌟🎄CHRISTMAS IS NEARLY HERE!🎄🌟🎅
Stylish Grooming is completely booked out for Christmas grooms.
First availability is now 3rd week in January.
🌞🔥HOT!!!! HOT!!!! HOT!!!🔥🌞
So some tips to help with the heat....
If your dog is overweight then it doesn't matter how short their coat is they will still suffer from the heat ( maybe look at a your dogs lifestyle & diet, Or if there is a medical reason why they are that big?)
Meantime, Fans & ice tray in front of Fans.
Cool mats, Damp concrete or damp towel on concrete in the shade. Paddling pool in the shade ( don't add ice to the water )
Spritz your dogs coat with water ( don't saturate them as this will make them shiver & inadvertently increase their body temperature) just a light spray & then as it evaporates it will help cool them.
Don't exercise/walk in the heat of the day.
If at the beach ALWAYS make sure you take plenty of fresh water. ( because if too much salt water is consumed this can course vomiting & diarrhea leading to even worse dehydration )
Have a great & safe festive season everyone🎄

We've had multiple calls in just this last week so I think it's time for a little reminder.
It's upsetting when we get calls & we are made to feel like we either don't care about a dogs situation or get a frustrated & dismissive reaction from people when we say that our first availability is in 4 weeks time.
" Oh but my dog is desperate!!! They are suffering from the heat!!!"
I'm not apologizing for it but I have to say it,
Creditable Dog Groomers are BUSY.
We are not sitting waiting for you to call.
We are already booked up, we already have an exsiting client base & they are all on a regular rotation for their grooms. Sometimes the only reason we have space become available is that clients have either moved away or their dog has passed on.
So the take home is... Please plan ahead because we do look forward to meeting you & caring for your pet but please don't wait until the situation is dire before contacting us....this will help to avoid frustrations on both sides.
☺️Thanks for reading to the end☺️
☺️Thanks for letting me feel brave enough to share a reality of being a Dog Groomer ☺️

Update.... Unfortunately no placing this time but lots of comments on how freaking cute she looked from other competitors & those watching. Was giving a good idea I could use for next time 😉 large class of 6 Master Groomers..... we were the only drop coat.
Thank you so much Linda for letting Harriet come to Groomwars in Auckland this weekend.... our little Potato has turned into a Fancy French Fry..... waiting to see if we've been lucky enough to place ❤️🐾

Spring has sprung🪻🌷🌼🌞
It's time to think about our fury friends that we have let hibernate all winter. Coats have got long & out of control? Thick winter undercoat is sitting waiting to come out?
The heat will be here before we know it & we don't want our dogs to suffer.
So give us a call & get booked in before space dissappears there is still space available in October, September is already completely booked out. 0272102213

Spreading Awareness....
Pet owners don't realize they are loving their pets onto an early grave.....
Pet obesity can be an upsetting issue & if it upsets you maybe you need to keep reading.
Because I truly believe I have lived long enough & have experienced enough as a lifelong owner, breeder, Dog show enthusiast & Professional Groomer to know that any obese dog is not a healthy or a happy dog.
A large portion of dogs do not have a off button when it becomes to food so we need to step up & make the right nutritional decisions for them.
Factors to consider are breed type, are they small companion breed? or high energy working, sporting or herding breed?
What's the dogs lifestyle really like, are they a couch potato backyard landshark or very active involved with dog sports or taking daily 10km runs with the owner?
We need to feed accordingly. I'm sure we all want our pets to be here for a long time not just a good one so for DOGS sake stop killing them with kindness!!!..... its not our dogs fault it's fat, it's ours.
All said with love, kindness & concern for all my clients & their dogs❤️🐾
so non-constructive keyboard warrior comments will be deleted. Be respectful.

Stylish Grooming 40 Takapau Road Waipukurau.
Just popping in to remind everyone of the importance of keeping your Dogs nails short. Our oldies need theirs checking too because a less active life doesn't mean our nails stop growing.
Long nails can cause pain & discomfort, unchecked nails can even curl & grow back into the dogs pads leading to possible infection & costly vet visits.
We offer a nail trimming service from $20 per dog. Call 0272102213 to make an appointment.
