for Oxspring dogsDog groomer, walker & boarder in Oxspring
If you live in Oxspring, you’re about 5.6 miles south of Clayton West, where I groom, board and walk dogs.
A village and civil parish on the River Don in the Metropolitan Borough of Barnsley, east of Penistone. That puts Oxspring 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.
