Simply Grand Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I met little Miley briefly this afternoon :) She was looking great, running around and jumping over things, but it has obviously been a massive effort to get her back to that. She had a little play session with Saxon, he liked her a lot :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petmezz Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 hi all. thanks for raising the issue of this groomer and the support the grooming community gave to the dogs and owners involved. I am happy to say as of close today Dog World is closed and Lance is no longer a part of the business at all. Dog world is having a name change to Puppy Rampage, and in a few weeks (and intense cleaning) I will be opening at the same location in Hume. Puppy Rampage will be a dog daycare and basic grooming, and eventually have a hydrotherapy pool and host dog training lesions. Lots happening with this site. Thanks for reading Marianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussielover Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 That's exciting! As it happens I'm looking for a food dog groomer and dog daycare in canberra at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espinay2 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Nice to know. A good conclusion I think. VERY interested in the Hydrotherapy pool. This region desperately needs one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loving my Oldies Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Obviously I don't know the whole story, but hopefully no more dogs will be damaged. Can't say I'm keen on the name though :) :) . I honestly don't think I'd be sending my dog/s to a place called [anything] Rampage. Just the way I feel :) . It may be an absolute goer with some people.

It may be an absolute goer with some people. no cage drying from me, drip dry yes if the dog is to stressed. as for the name, I have been running puppy rampage for a few years and it fits what a dog day care is. lots of teenage boys (and girls) running around acting stupid and being allowed to socialise with knowledgeable trained and experienced supervision. it starts out pure excitement and over the day settles to a nice balanced play day for the dogs.

Rosetta Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Do you have separate areas for small dogs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffyluv Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 So happy to hear you will be back on deck Marianne.. I bet all your clients are happy as well.. Good luck in the new venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petmezz Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 hi Rosetta at this new location yes their is a small dog area. at our old location it was mixed and we found the little dogs ruled the yard and the larger dogs listened to them (with reinforcement by me). The new space is all indoors and able to be divided so we will be dividing dogs based on temperaments. Thanks staffylove my clients are anxious and wanting me open NOW! but if they walked in their at the moment well lets just say I'm cleaning lots :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diva Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I am looking forward to a hydrotherapy facility in the region, my old dog would have benefited a lot if we had one in driving distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheridan Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 If there's anyone who looks younger than 20, there's no way I'd take a dog there. Every single groomer should be qualified and who exactly will be running the hydrotherapy pool? A qualified canine physio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petmezz Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) would love for you to come visit sheriden, the door will be open for you to inspect. their are only 2 dog physios in the area and one of these has been contacted, while I'm not qualified I have had extensive training in canine massage and physio therapy working with elite long distance sled dogs. some of the dogs I learnt on are now 10 years old and have or will be running another 1000 mile race, a grate testament to the several times a week these dogs receive massage and when needed physio. my internship with sled dogs lasted a year near Whitehorse Canada avenging 10 hours a day no days off caring for the dogs, I spent very little time on a sled lots of time hands on massaging and physio, feeding, having my but kicked and being yelled at, beats any school you don't get paid until you learn and get it wrong your kicked out instantly, these dogs are worth thousands but more to the point they are peoples livelihood. not to mention several dogs this person owns lived to 16 to 19 years, a bit different to the "average expected lifespan" for med to large dogs hear.

Alyosha Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Great to hear such positive news Marianne. Here's hoping your cleaning is easing up and your business will boom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keetamouse Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Is the grooming out where clients can see what is happening to their dogs or still behind closed doors. I will come out and have a look when it is opened as I took all my fosters there plus my own dogs and was one of the people who had a dog that was cut deeply by one of Lance's staff and needed 4 staples took me 8 months to get the vet costs back from him, he refused to speak to me but I caught him at work early one day and he was just so obnoxious to me. I wish you all the luck Marianne ( I don't know you though) but hopefully things will go well for you. Maree CPR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph M Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 If there's anyone who looks younger than 20, there's no way I'd take a dog there. Every single groomer should be qualified and who exactly will be running the hydrotherapy pool? A qualified canine physio? A 20 year old could well be qualified. Or could be a 30 year old who looks 15, I know a few of those. Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph M Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 FWIW I quite like the name! I think it sounds pretty apt. Haha. I can see how it'd give some a Lord Of The Flies vibe though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
