This Saturday, September 17th 2011, sees the Steeple Morden Harvest Fair take place.

Groomability will be there judging the ‘Scruffs Dog Show’, a ‘just-for-fun’ show for the local dogs and owners to show off at.

Classes include Waggiest Tail, Childs best friend (dogs with a child owner under 12), Golden Oldie (Dogs over 8 years of age), Smiliest Face, and The Dog with the Best Party Trick. Later there will be a Musical SIT contest, and finally The Rolo Cup, which will be awarded to ‘The Dog The Judge Would Most Like To Take Home!’ – but obviously we won’t!!

So, please come down and enter for some of the classes, cost is 20p per class, all entrants can then enter ‘The Rolo Cup’ free of charge.

There is lots of other attractions going on to ensure it will be a great fun event for all the family. We hope to see you there.

To our web wizard, not only for our new look site, but also for being able to train a complete techno-muppet like me to be able to post in the ‘Groomability Blog’.

So, a very big “Thank you” goes to Adam of Cambridge Web Solutions for his help and guidance. We highly recommend him should you be in the market for a website of your own.

Hello, and welcome to the updated ‘Groomability’ website.

Since opening for business in April 2010 Groomability has gone from strength to strength. We currently undertake the number of grooming sessions that we expected at the ‘Year 3’ stage of the business!

Being so popular means that, despite our best efforts, we struggle to keep our booking times below 3-4 weeks. Also we are constrained by the fact that being mobile we can only do so many dogs (Usually 3) in a day! And even dog groomers deserve days off. Obviously Belinda’s arthritis restricts us further, but the wonders of modern medicine are playing their part also.

We do try to slot in the quicker ‘pamper’ sessions for those of our canine friends with short coats where-ever possible, but travelling time does impact on how-often we can do this. And we will NEVER compromise dog welfare, or our quality of work, just so we can fit more dogs in each day.

So if the waiting time for an appointment is too long, please accept our apologies, and we hope you understand. If you just have to have your dog groomed straight away, please do so elsewhere but consider us for your next grooming and maybe book that one now!

If you are new to Groomability we look forward to meeting you and your dog. If you have already experienced ‘The Groomability Effect’, then we hope to meet you again soon.

Martin – August 2011.

Lexi is a very nervous German Shepherd. She needed some severe matts removing from her rear end but just wouldn’t let her owner near them. Belinda managed to gain her trust and she was able to get Lexi much more comfortable without the matts. After a wash and dry she was looking, and feeling, very smart.

Another of our regulars, Benji has a quick growing coat which was neatly trimmed so he can show off to the girls again!

Beatty the Cocker Spaniel was trimmed to how her owner likes her, short, ready for her play-times in the near-by fields. Enjoy!
