for Meltham dogsDog groomer, walker & boarder in Meltham
Meltham is about 9.9 miles west of my grooming studio in Clayton West.
Meltham is a town and civil parish in the Holme Valley, Kirklees, West Yorkshire. That puts Meltham within reach of my grooming, walking and home boarding, and dogs do travel for a groom or a stay. Hounds of Love is a small, personal service. Dogs from further afield come to Nanette’s garden studio in Clayton West for grooming and to stay at her home while their owners are away. It’s all done by one person, so your dog is the one getting the attention.
