Hello from Morag, Martini and Daisy

It is only two days until September and we can't believe where the past year has gone. It will be the salon's second anniversary on 1 September and the open day will be held on Saturday 4 September between 1pm and 5pm - everyone is welcome so hope you can make it.

September has other anniversaries too - Morag has a birthday and according to Martini and Daisy she will be approximately 8 years old in dog years!

22 September is also a very special day as that is the day, one year ago, Daisy came to stay with Morag and Martini and those of you who know Martini know he is still a little bit jealous of Daisy. Undaunted, Daisy made herself completely at home and what a little sweetie pie she is too. Daisy didn't really eat very much and was very thin but all that changed with a trip to the vet where she had most of her teeth removed. A lot of people ask if she has difficulty eating, well worry not she loves to eat and would eat all of Martini's food too if allowed. Martini's nickname is Tini Bear so Daisy is called Gummy Bear!

Whilst looking through the photos we found one that Toby (tjf photography) took of Morag and Martini before the World Cup (remember that?) and thought it would be a fun photo to put on today's blog. Martini looked so cute in his England shirt and was ready to play with his ears in bunches!

Hello from Morag, Martini and Daisy

We would like to wish Kizey a very yappy first birthday for 8 August – we still need to get a photo of Kizey on the regulars section so will definitely try and take a nice photo next time Kizey comes into salon . Enjoy being One Kizey!

The weather was lovely today (Sunday 22 August) so we had a trip to Silloth for a walk along the front. It was a bit windy but it was lovely having so much sunshine. Poor Daisy hates going in the car but she always loves walking along the front and she forgets about the car for a little while.

Jack came to the salon yesterday to pick up his beautiful framed pawtrait which he won in the raffle from Skelton Show. His mummy was very pleased with the photo and we have to say Jack looked stunning! Thanks again to Toby of tjf photography for donating such a great prize. We were thinking of having another raffle in time for Christmas so we will see if we can get Toby to donate another pawtrait as a prize – we will keep you all posted.

It is just under two weeks until the open day which is going to be held on Saturday 4 September between 1pm and 5pm. Everyone is welcome so please feel free to come along for tea and cake (homemade). If you haven’t been to the salon since we moved it would be lovely to see you again and if you have never been before then feel free to come and have a look around – the more the merrier!

We have added an action photo of Martini today. Toby (of course) took this lovely photo of Martini in full flight. We love the way Toby can capture Martini – there are some photos where Martini looks like a cloud he is so fluffy!

Hello from Morag, Martini and Daisy

We wanted to wish Theo (Shih Tzu) a very Yappy Birthday for 31 July – Theo is a big boy now he has turned One! Jack (Lhasa Apso) very Yappy Birthday – Jack will be 2 years old on 11 August and not forgetting Martini who will be 4 years old on 13 August. If we don’t have a note of your birthday, ask your mummy or daddy to let Morag know so you can have a mention in the birthday list.

We had our photo taken when Jack came to have his pawtrait taken by Toby of tjf photography a couple of weeks ago so we have included the photo today. (Jack won first prize in the raffle at Skelton Show.) We had a great afternoon with Jack and as you can see from the photo it was a fluffy fest!

We have introduced a reward scheme: if you recommend a friend and your friend subsequently comes to the salon for an appointment you will receive a FREE gift by way of a thank you. Don’t forget to tell Morag and you will receive your free charm.

If you cannot bring your dog to the salon we have introduced a collection and delivery service for small companion breeds (eg Yorkie, Lhasa, Shih-Tzu etc). There will be a small charge for this service and you are welcome to contact Morag to discuss your requirements. Details will be on the home page.

Hello from Morag, Martini and Daisy

This month we have a very special yappy birthday in that Martini is going to be 4 years old on 13 August. Yappy Birthday Martini!

If you have seen the home page on the website you will have noticed the banner announcing our Open Day on Saturday 4 September. As it will be Doggy Doo’s second anniversary on 1 September we thought it would be fun to have an Open Day. The salon will be open from 1pm to 5pm and we will be serving tea and cake or water and biscuits – whichever you prefer. Everyone will be given a warm welcome whether you want to just come and view the salon for the first time or you are one of our regular clients we would love you to come and see us. We will write another blog closer to the time. We hope you can make it and look forward to seeing you there.

We have posted an interesting photo of Daisy today. It is always so hard to get photos of Daisy as she doesn’t like to have her photo taken and is not a “poser” like Martini. The photo of Daisy was taken by Toby of tjf photography and was taken, of course, when Daisy was completely unaware. We thought we would share the photo and hope you like it too.
