Thank you very much for making the effort to be so kind to me today.  I think I'm a little tired after all the excitement so time for a dog nap - lots of love Blossom x

Lab/Collie Cross

I have just picked my dog up from Cherie Lock, who has her dog grooming salon in Curload. I can't express how pleased I am with the results. My double coated lab collie cross was a bit matted and needed a lot of attention. He has come home relaxed and very very handsome!!

Cocker Spaniel

I can't recommend Cherie highly enough. She was so kind and patient with my Spaniel who (for various reasons) has become quite nervous about being groomed. I am really pleased with my dog's new look and received several comments at training this morning on how smart she is. Also, my dog has really taken to Cherie and keeps trotting off towards Curload if we head off down the river on a walk.

Anyone who wishes to get their pooch groomed, I can wholeheartedly recommend Lock's Dog Grooming in Curload. My 12 year old spaniel Joe has come home so relaxed and looks wonderful! Cherie works around your dog so they are very well looked after.  Joe was taken for a stroll along the riverbank, had breaks between treatments and even had a snooze.  I need to add that Joe has some bad allergies where he breaks out in sores and scratches.  I have found shampoo that has cleared this up and keeps on top of it, and Cherie was more than happy to use this instead of her own products.  She is very accommodating and a complete star!  He will definitely be returning.  Thank you Cherie

Just wanted to thank you so much for the wonderful grooming of Ella you carried out yesterday morning. She looks very pretty, is lovely and soft and smells wonderful. We couldn't be more happy or pleased and look forward to seeing you again soon.  I'm glad she behaved well for you!

Springer Spaniel

Thank you Cherie I am so lucky to have found such a caring person to groom my sick, 10 yr. old Springer Spaniel. I really appreciated the fact that you groomed at the dogs pace, no rush, allowed Sukie time for a snooze, made time for a little walk break which all made the experience as stress-free as possible by giving her your undivided attention. 

Sukie looked amazing at the end of her "spa day". I will certainly recommend you and look forward to seeing you again soon.

Many thanks for 2 super grooms and for the time and trouble that you took with Harry and Charlie. Proper job 🐾

Cherie is friendly and very professional and performs the task in calm, well equipped surroundings.  My dog received outstanding 1:1 attention which made it a really positive experience.  I also received advice on grooming techniques/apparatus.

Labradoodle

We can't thank Cherie enough for agreeing to groom our old, disabled 15 1/2 year old dog Kiera.  She has severe arthritis and struggles with her mobility; many other groomers would not be willing to take her on.  Cherie's calm, gentle approach made Kiera feel completely comfortable and happy.  She worked around Kiera's complex needs allocating plenty of time, minimising her stress and allowing breaks when needed. I would wholeheartedly recommend Lock's Dog Grooming. Thank you Cherie.

Lab Mix and Patterdale Mix

Absolutely fantastic place to take your dogs. Was really nervous at how my 2 would react as they are both rescues, and I've never taken them before and don't know their history. They have come back completely different dogs and look totally different and smell lush! Was lovely to know that it's not a 1 in 1 out system and that I didn't have to rush to pick them up, due to working and could collect when I've finished.  They have been very spoilt today.  Have booked them in again to be done.  Will definitely be recommending to everyone I know with dogs.  Don't just use anyone who is a 10 minute "qualified" dog groomer - go with someone who takes their time and care's for your dogs as their own.

Miniature Schnauzers

After our last groomers (been with them 6 years) decided to double the price of the dogs grooming, we decided to use Lock's Dog Grooming to give ours their summer cut and cool them down! Thank you  - they struggle in this heat so are already feeling much more comfortable laying in the garden! they were clearly happy with you as they didn't know if to leave with me or stay with the treat lady! We will be using you from now on.

Welsh Terrier

Our 3 year old Welsh Terrier (Lucy) had a tough time with a previous groomer so we are delighted to have found Cherie & totally satisfied with how she has groomed Lucy.  From first meeting Cherie we knew that the dog’s welfare was of the utmost importance to her as it is to us. Lucy is a ‘challenge’ to groom, but after a wobbly start Cherie has been able to hand-strip the majority of Lucy’s coat which has never been possible before, we cannot recommend Cherie highly enough as a groomer & a thoroughly lovely lady.

Thank you Cherie! Woody looks, smells and feels gorgeous after his time with you this morning. I was a bit of an anxious mummy leaving him with a groomer for the first time but I needn’t have worried, he seems to have thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Worn out now though!

On behalf of Cara, and ourselves, we would like to say thank you for your excellent grooming and calm, personal attention. As you have discovered, Cara can be a bit of a wriggler, especially when there is water involved, but you dealt with it magnificently. She really enjoys coming to see you, and, as you know, it is difficult to persuade her to leave.

We will thoroughly recommend your services to all dog owners in the area.

Thank you Cherie for taking such good care of Tizzie for her first groom with you. It's so lovely that you take so much time to make sure your furry customers are settled and happy and as less stressed as possible. I'll definitely recommend your services to others. I feel very lucky to have found you so near to where I live! I'm sure in time Tizzie will get to really enjoy her visits to you when it all becomes more familiar. See you soon!

German Shepherd

Jackson and Cherie have had a soft spot for each other since they met. Cherie is very professional and has amazing attention to detail.

They both met out of chance while I was carrying out some work for Cherie. Jackson has been relaxed and excited to see Cherie on each visit. Just today, he somehow managed to jump out of the van before I did and straight into the well setup salon.

If you are after a very friendly and great experience for your fluffy friend, I can’t recommend Lock’s Dog Grooming enough. Well worth the travelling distance if you are slightly further afield.

I can’t thank you enough Cherie.

When I arrived to pick up Max & Winston they were SO relaxed and happy. I thought they’d be scrambling to get out … but no. Winston carried on playing with his tennis balls and Max, once he’s said hello to me, lay back down and had another little snooze. It was so much better than I’d hoped for.

They hadn’t been rushed; your policy of ‘however long it takes’ and only one dog/dog family per day illustrates that you really do keep the welfare and happiness of your dogs at the heart of what you do. This is no ‘get ‘em in, get them out, next please’ service - this is a service totally centred around an individual dog’s needs, and I commend you for sticking with this principle and not putting profit over Dog welfare.

For anyone reading this - this is what exceptional dog grooming is all about.

I can’t recommend Cherie enough … and will be doing so to every dog owner I meet.

Once again, “thank you” Cherie - you’re a real credit to your profession.

King Charles Spaniel

I messaged Cherie about a week ago regarding my dog, instant reply and booked us in for a meet and treat! 

Got Buddy booked in and had his first groom, although he was nervous he was reassured by Cherie and her knowledge and love of dogs! He has come home smelling and looking amazing!! Booking in for the next groom!

I would highly recommend anyone looking for a groomer to go to Cherie!

Thank you again for your time, see you soon!!

Your care, sincerity and understanding has been exceptional.  I have also been very pleased and impressed by your professional expertise.  Dylan has been posing and strutting his stuff enjoying the attention since his clip.  I'm so chuffed - a new team has bonded!  I look forward to seeing you at his next styling - wags and woofs from Dylan.

Many thanks for grooming Chili Pepper's first professional groom. Chili was so relaxed in your company and you were very calm and friendly towards him. He was treated as an individual and not a conveyor belt of dogs being groomed. We are delighted with the result. A new Toy Poodle! We will definitely be back - thank you!

What a great job Cherie did today. The first time we've had our dogs groomed. Brilliant job and very, very good value. Thanks Cherie.

You are absolutely amazing and the love and care you give makes it so manageable. Small dogs with big personalities who require management of their coats (and skin) need angels like you.  Thank you.

Collie

I took my dog Bryn to Cherie for his first time with a groomer and I was really impressed by Cherie's approach to grooming! I was nervous about it as Bryn doesn't like to be brushed, but with the aid of sausage bites and loads of patience, Cherie managed to tame his dreadlocks, give him a bath, and other attentions like ears and paws.  At the end they were obvious friends. I would highly recommend Lock's dog grooming, Cherie is super nice and very skilled!

Terrier

First visit today for Podrick who has been somewhat timid at the groomers in the past. Having put him at ease the moment we walked through the door, she went on to explain what would happen during his time with her, and how her bespoke service differs from others. On collection, Pod was his normal excitable self without any signs of duress.  I cannot recommend Cherie highly enough for anyone seeking grooming services.

So happy Cherie with Monty’s grooming and for the care and affection you gave him. Will definitely recommend your services to others.

All my oldie rescues have felt immediately safe with you. You’re so knowledgeable, I have learnt a lot from you … and I’ve been rescuing dogs for over 25 years!  Never change - us true dog lovers need groomers like you.

How many other dogs get a walk and play at intervals throughout their groom?!

I can’t lie … I’m going to try and convince you to sort MY own hair out … I’ll be good if I can have some sausage!!
