Uniquely Dog

Puppy and Dog Classes

Puppy classes are for puppies from the age of 12wks-20wks of age and have received their full inoculations.

Basic skills are taught through simple games along with the start of lead walking, introduction to recall, initial grooming and learning how to socialise your puppy successfully. Observation of your puppy and it’s unique characteristics are identified and the teaching of new skills will be tailored to your individual puppy and it’s learning abilities. 

There will be limited places in each class which are being kept small so they will not overwhelm both dog and guardian.

Adolescent dogs thrive on a balance of mental stimulation, physical exercise and sleep and rest.

Building on from puppyhood and introducing more exercises and learning techniques and what I think are absolute musts in helping to keep both guardian and dog as safe as can be: a rock solid stop, stay, lead walking and recall.

Testimonials

As a long-standing customer of Gillian’s (I now think of her as a friend). She has been and is amazing. She looks after my dog as you would any baby. She is kind, tolerant and so calm when working. I can honestly say that I have not come across anyone so hard working and relentless, even when the dog/s don’t behave. Her skills are fantastic, and her expertise is second to none. My dog is quite timid but around Gillian, he is happy and content throughout his grooming. Finally, I would not hesitate in recommending her grooming and healing services to anyone.

    Mrs Maria Evans

    Gill has kindly looked after our somewhat temperamental Lhasa Apso, Charlie, for the last 14 years. Charlie is incredibly difficult, even for us as his owners, to deal with, but Gill seems to use her deft skills to handle him brilliantly and literally has him eating out of her hand as she skilfully grooms him, as and when it's needed. Gill, a consummate professional, carries out her role to perfection and we're so pleased to have become friends with her, and are also incredibly grateful for her relationship with us, and with Charlie, as we're pretty confident that we wouldn't be able to find somebody that handles Charlie like she does - Thank you, Gill!

      Pet Friends is a wonderful pet home grooming service, Gill grooms both of our Mini Schnauzer’s and is extremely gentle with our older boy Harley, who she has been grooming for 14 years. Harley is extremely nervous of being groomed, but Gill is extremely gentle and patient with him. We could not send Harley or Mabel to anyone else, as we trust Gill complicitly for her many years of grooming knowledge, her dog loving approach and her professionalism.

        Julie, from Lymm, Cheshire

        Gilly has been our dog groomer for many years now and is the only groomer I would choose to care for our dogs. She is very patient and understanding to individual dog’s needs and temperaments as I have a very nervous little dog but Gilly’s calming and gentle approach works wonders to reassure her. Being a mobile groomer is great for us as it means the dogs don’t have to be left in unfamiliar surroundings and the house is always left clean and tidy when she’s done. Each time the dogs are groomed they are trimmed exactly as requested and nothing is too much trouble. She is an excellent groomer and I can’t recommend her enough, she is brilliant with our dogs and the only one I trust.

          I have been taking my dog Bobby to see Gill for around 8 years after using a couple of other local groomers that left Bobby petrified of going to the groomers. He may look small and fluffy but he is a demon in the groomers. Gill is so patient with him even though he is aggressive for the whole process. One one occasion Gill noticed a wart growing on his tail that we hadn't seen and if we didn't do anything about it the vet told us it would have become a very serious infection. Gill now visits us at home which is fantastic as we both work from home. It's no longer a job we have to squeeze in on weekends. I honestly wouldn't trust anybody else to cut Bobbys hair , Gill is fantastic and her obvious love for all animals is clear to see I would highly recommend Gill to anybody looking for a groomer.

            Gillian has been grooming my 2 Shih Tzu’s for over 11 years. They are a difficult pair to groom. They hate it. But Gillian is patient , kind and caring. Excellent at her job. I would not let anyone else groom them.

              Gill has been grooming our dogs for over 15 years. Having a reliable and friendly dog groomer is so important. It's great to know that you i count on Gill to take care of my furry friend.

                Maureen, Chorlton, Gtr. Manchester

                Gillian has been grooming my two dogs for many years now and is absolutely amazing. After having problems with other groomers they were both traumatised and impossible to be groomed, but with lots of patience and care she’s completely changed there experience, they are calm and so much better now . I can not sing her praises enough!
