Goji's Spa Day

Goji is nine months old tomorrow, and to mark the occasion, we decided he deserved a little treat. I had wanted to take him to Harrods Pet Spa for a bit of pampering, but sadly that closed in January, along with the Pet Kingdom. Luckily, a chance encounter with a fellow Pomeranian owner revealed that the Pet Spa had in fact relocated to the Fulham Road, and so I booked Goji in for a full body groom. This includes dead-hair removal, a nail trim, a between pads and paw trim, an ear cleanse, two shampoos, a warm blow dry, a custom coat styling by a Pet Spa stylist, and a luxury finishing cologne spritz. Everything Goji might need to look hot in the park, in other words!

I dropped him off at 4pm, and was told that he would need up to two hours. The poor little thing was quite nervous (the only other time he has been dropped off was at the vet's to be neutered), and he was quivering so much that I had second thoughts about the whole thing. The Pet Spa girls were absolutely lovely, however, and assured me that he would be absolutely fine. We discussed the style for Goji's haircut (I stressed that I didn't want him to be shaved, as this can damage the coat), but just wanted a little trim around his bum and ears.

When I came to collect him, I found an ultra-fluffy, very happy little Goji, who smelt absolutely to DIE FOR (the cologne, no doubt). Apparently he had behaved himself incredibly well, and was given a little 'Gucchewi' toy handbag for being so good!

The Pet Spa was fantastic, and I would highly recommend it to anyone. The first service is half price for new customers too, so Goji's haircut was £32.50 instead of £65.
