About us

A calm little grooming salon

A small home salon built around one simple idea: one dog at a time, groomed gently and without rush.

Who we are

Grooming built around one dog at a time

Bramble & Bark is a small, one-to-one salon run from home. Every dog is booked in on its own, so there's no barking queue, no cages and no rush — just a calm, quiet space and one groomer giving your dog their full attention.

That gentle, unhurried approach makes a real difference for puppies having their first groom and for older or anxious dogs who find a busy salon overwhelming. Whether it's a full breed groom, a quick bath and tidy, or a nervous dog who needs extra time, your dog is treated with patience and care from the moment they arrive.

Why owners choose us

Grooming at your dog's pace, not a production line

  • One dog at a time. Your dog has our full attention from arrival to collection — no queue of other dogs, no rush.
  • A calm home salon. A quiet, domestic setting rather than a busy high-street shop, so there's far less to worry about.
  • Gentle with nervous dogs. Anxious dogs and first-time puppies are welcome — we take breaks and go at a pace they're happy with.
  • Never caged. No cage dryers and no waiting in kennels — your dog stays settled and comfortable throughout.
  • A personal service. You deal with the same groomer every time, and your dog sees a familiar face at each visit.

“Twelve years of dreading the groomer, and our rescue lurcher finally has somewhere she'll walk into calmly. The one-dog-at-a-time thing genuinely works.”

“Matted spaniel after a wet winter, and I fully expected to be told he'd need shaving. They spent the time to brush it out properly instead. Delighted.”

“Clear pricing agreed up front, no surprise extras, and photos sent while he was there. Small touches, but it's why we've been coming back for years.”
