DOGS AND US
THE MUTZZ NUTZ IN CANINE STYLING!
ABOUT US
My love for dogs began as a child but a pet was not an option at the time, so as soon as I was able, it all changed.
The first dog was a beautiful black Labrador shortly followed by a German Shepherd. Two years later they were joined by a 7 month old red Cocker Spaniel. I'd no idea how to care for her coat, so took her to a local dog grooming salon, and cried when she came back! Her coat had been shaved off to stubble. I vowed she'd never go there again so I bought books and learnt to do her myself.
I had several Cockers over the years which were shown and bred on a hobby level.
My last Cocker was about 15 years ago.Sadly to be my last. My circumstances had changed by then and I was working full time.
For years I have thought about being "my own boss" but was undecided which area it would be in. The main criteria was job satisfaction.
Early in 2007 a chance remark made me look into dog grooming.I researched various courses and options. With encouragement & support from Phil I enrolled on a City & Guilds course in The Cotswolds with a lovely tutor called Kate!
In January 2008 we started to get to work on the plans. Phil was working on the old outhouse conversion every second he could.I started in a small way in March with dogs from family & friends, and in June MUTZZ NUTZ was opened part time with me working full time from September.
When possible Phil joins me and he enjoys it as much as do and is handy when the big dogs are in to help them into the bath!
Our aim is to offer a personalised one to one service that concentrates on your dog rather than the hurried conveyor belt system that operates in some grooming parlours. Your appointment is timed usually to around 2 hours, so please allow for this.
In January 2009 we added a new addition to the household..our Spinone puppy Boo!And again in December 2009 we comfirmed our madness by adding another demanding diva by the name of Lola!! Phew...what a pair...it's a good job we love them to bits!
I entered this profession because I have a genuine passion for dogs. It is not just a business.
We enjoy our work!
We love all dogs and can cater for most whether it is a tiny Toy or a massive Mastiff!We offer a personalised service to all of our regular clients that include early evenings and Saturday a.m when we can. However these go fast and there is usually a waiting list!
