For The Love of Dogs

FINNese Dog Grooming provides a 1:1 dog grooming service with NO cages in a friendly and professional atmosphere for your precious pet, giving them the same love & attention they would receive at home. I am fully insured and a member of the International Professional Groomers Association (IPG). At the end of the groom your dog can enjoy a nice play with my boy Finn, my retired Police Search dog, if they wish.

Services

FINNese Dog Grooming provides quality pet dog grooming, for small to medium sized dogs only, in a safe and hygienic bespoke grooming pod. Before any grooming commences I will complete a health check on your dog; checking the body for any unusual lumps or bumps, checking the teeth & gums for plaque or inflammation, and checking the ears. All dogs go home with collar bow, coat conditioning spray, spritz of doggy cologne and a themed bandana for the season. All prices are a ‘starting from’ price - as it is dependent on the condition of your dog’s coat. PUPPY GROOMING: It is essential for happy grooming that you introduce puppies to the grooming process right after their vaccinations. Puppies at this age learn a lot quicker and are more open and accepting to new experiences than when they are a few months older. I follow every puppy groom with a play session to ensure a truly positive experience. I recommend to start with a course of puppy grooms (see below for Puppy Package), which includes introduction to sights, sounds & smells of a salon, a bath, gentle blow dry & brush, trimming of hygiene areas, feet/pads & nails and eyes cleared. This is split over 3 sessions & I recommended a frequency 2-3 weeks between sessions, until puppies are confident enough for their first full trim, I build up the process during each session. Along side this I recommend to set aside time at home to clean your puppies eyes & feet and brush them a minimum of twice a week but daily or every other day is preferred. By working together we can create a wonderful grooming experience. If you require further information about my services, please don’t hesitate to contact me. PLEASE NOTE: If you are wanting to book 2 dogs from the same household you will need to make two separate bookings (09:30am & 12:30pm), both dogs can be brought in together at the first appointment time.

Proprietor/Groomer & Ambassador

I am a qualified dog groomer and have been since 2013. I am also qualified in canine behaviour and canine First Aid. I am fully qualified in the Emmipet Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning procedure after attending a full seminar master class learning the technique, procedure and benefits of ultrasound teeth cleaning. I was previously an experienced Police Search Dog Handler for 8 years with my precious Labrador, Finn, before he retired at the grand age of 8. Finn was the inspiration for my business name hence he is the ambassador. Finn still comes to work with me but now in the capacity of my friend, companion and soulmate at the salon. I am constantly attending seminars to improve & update my skills to ensure your dog has the best experience when coming for a spa day. My job is to ensure the well-being of your dog, not only whilst at my salon, but also when they leave to go home, I am always at the end of the phone for any advice.

Brilliant Job

Cathy Mills

I haven't met Tracy yet in person as my dog, Billy our Westie, goes to doggy day care and gets groomed whilst he is there, but she did a brilliant groom and I look forward to him going again.

Excellent Service

Andrea Hallett

Toby has had his hair cut at FINNese a few times now since Covid as we weren't able to get him in any appointments at his previous place. I am so glad that I was introduced to Tracy as he will never go back to our previous place now! I have been very impressed with the quality of the service provided and the professionalism. Toby is a very energetic excited pup and having his hair cut has always been tricky but I know Toby is in safe hands getting his hair cut here and each cut has been fantastic! Tracy takes time to groom and cut his hair exactly as we request each time and the service provided is great value for money. Toby is always happy to have his next haircut, barking and squeaking with excitement when we pull up in the carpark! He is already looking forward to his next visit!

Totally Recommend 10/10

Mandy Senior

Tracy is an excellent groomer. My dog Tilly is so at home there she's always playing with the basket of toys after her groom while waiting for her mummy to collect her. She is also given a yummy treat to take home. Totally recommend it 10/10

Wonderful Service Would Definitely Recommend

Sarah Bawtree

Would Highly Recommend Without Hesitation

Nili Safavi

Tracy does a wonderful job of grooming our Jackson. He was really unsure about being groomed having had a bad experience with a previous groomer. It got to the point we could barely brush him ourselves. Tracy has worked wonders with him, making him feel so at ease. It’s the first time I’ve seen him excited to go to the groomers and he now lets us brush him at home too. You can tell he really loves Tracy. After grooms he always looks and smells wonderful too! Would highly recommend without any hesitation.

Would rate 10 stars if I could!

Charlotte Hopkins

Tracy performed wonders on our little girl. She was very matted so we had to have her cut short, but Tracy informed us of everything before going ahead with it which was very professional. She was also very knowledgeable and passionate about her job. Definitely would recommend to anybody wanting a groom for their pup. Have already booked our next appointment! Would rate 10 stars if I could!
