Just a few recent comments that my clients parents have emailed to me

(sorry If I have removed your lovely comments, they will not be forgotten, just want to update this a little xxxxx)

Starsky looks wonderful and I have to say I think he is feeling a lot better, he was very calm last night. I think we need to have him 'Dinkied' more often....(Starsky is a lovely blind, diebetic elderly Yorkie, I hear the vets are a bit scared of him, but you know, all he needs is a bit of time and to understand where you are and what you are doing and he is just a cutie pie, can you imagine how scary it must be, to be blind and giving a shower, or clipped off) Starsky you are a STAR, Auntie D loves you xxxxx

Thank you so much for the lovely pictures of Cadbury! It was Cadbury's first visit to you and he seemed to have enjoyed himself very much. He looks absolutely stunning and we were really really pleased with your First Class Service! My husband thought he looked GREAT!!!! We will definitely be visiting you again and we know Cadbury will enjoy being pampered. He has been asleep most of the afternoon, but managed to tell us it was teatime. lol! You can be rest assured we will most definitely be recommending you to our Cadbury's dinky doggy friends. Thank you and we will see you again soon with love from all xxxxx and a big lick from Cadbury.

Hi Donna,

Great pictures and a lovely surprise...thank you!! Daisy looks great, very happy with the cut. I have given your cards to both parents of the pups who were very interested in using you. Can I please book Ruby, my Border Terrier in with you when convenient. She needs stripping and boy is she ready for it (have attached a picture for you to see). Let me know when good for you? Kind regards, Nichola x

From Scooter's Mummy. Thank you.  They said how good he looked at agility on Tuesday night and they said he looked like he had just been done and I said it had been on Friday. They said well, you’ve got a really good groomer and asked who it was, so I have sung your praises.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for grooming Archie so beautifully on Saturday! He looks absolutely fantastic as I know he was seriously shabby beforehand! Thank you too for the photos that Judi passed on – what a transformation!! He looks just like a little puppy again and is very proud of his sleek new look! We will definitely be back when he needs his next haircut!! Many thanks.

Marco had his first hair cut at the weekend and looks even more beautiful than he was before... he smells lovely too! He was a little nervous at the start but soon settled and enjoyed his pampering! When we returned to pick him up, he was running around and playing as though it was his second home! He was definatley strutting his stuff with his velvet looking coat! He is looking forward to his next pampering-he loved every second of the attention!       Thank you for making him look so handsome and grown up!

We are delighted with Biff's hairdo. His topknot is still as lovely today as it was when you did it. You did a really good job with him, he looks in tip-top condition, you must have used magic shampoo on him. Thanks again You can do him any time in the future. Best wishes from Biff the Bedlington and family

A testimonial for your web site - you know what I think anyway, but I'll say it - you are brilliant with dogs and your grooming skills are first class. Thank you for having Poppy and Davey to stay for the week and my kids were delighted with the trick you taught Poppy - twirling round for a dog treat. Look forward to her next trick when they stay with you again!Best wishes from Davey and Poppy's family x

Thanks for the photos -what a transformation! = Lotties Mummy

UPDATE

It is with a very heavy heart that I have to announce that Guinness left his family for Rainbow Bridge. Although we only met him once his gentle spirit touched us deeply and many tears were shed in this household. We hope that while he waits to be reunited with his family, that he gets to play with lots of gentle dogs and feels the kindest touch on his shiny black coat.

R.I.P Guinness aged 14 xxxx

After a trip with our dog Guiness to see my good friend Starr in Worthing. Guinness was booked into have a dog grooming session at 'Dinky Dogs'. As we live in a very rural community knee high in mud I was a little worried that Guiness was past ever being clean and tidy again. He is 14years old a very much the laid back old age pensioner suffering with arthritis and dementia. On arrival at 'Dinky Dogs" grooming station we were put at ease immediately. We were asked about his health and were there any particular areas I was concerned about. As you can see from the before pictures Guiness was carrying a lot of fluff around his ears and the back of his legs had acquired quite alot of debris including ingrained teasels and dirt. He was put in the bath and much to his disdain given a good shampoo and conditioner. The colour of the water was shameful.... I then left her with Guinness whilst I went out for lunch. A good few hours later we returned and Guinness had been transformed from a mucky old country dog in to a real man about town. He had been trimmed and groomed to an exceptional standard. She had treated him with real kindness and care. I would recommend this service to any dog owner in Worthing and the local area and will take Guinness back as soon as I can to Dinky Dogs. Thank you for making me realise that there is a real skill to dog grooming and that you have it. Tanya Palmer Gloucestershire
