After tonights announcement it is with great sadness that The Barkside Mcr, The Barkside groomers, and the Barkside Heatons as of tomorrow (Tuesday 24th March 2020) will close until further notice.

Lets call a spade a spade The Coronavirus pandemic has forced our hand and we have to keep our staff, families and customers safe until this S**T storm passes.
These are incredibly difficult times and words we never thought we would have to write. Thanks to all our amazing dog owners without you; alongside our amazing team, we could not have achieved what we have so far.

Should you need essentials from our store please get in touch as we will offer a local home delivery service or we can arrange for the items to be posted out to you via Royal Mail (until told other wise). We cannot even begin to tell you how much we will miss our four legged fur babies, so until then take care and and lets all look forward to brighter days.

Currently our Heaton Chapel store is remaining open and will continue to do so to provide you all with the products you require for your pooch and their diet.

From Tuesday we will be opening our doors and asking that only one customer at any time enters the shop. We will lock the door throughout the day to support this health and safety measure.
We will also again as last week be continuing to ensure the door handles, counter top and card machine and other areas are disinfected between each client.

Please follow the guidelines for social distancing when not only in the shop but also while outside if you find you have to wait to enter the store.

Thankyou for your patience and support.

Our Groom room is currently open usual working hours.

To ensure we follow government guidelines we have implemented some extra hygiene and safety measures.

By employing social distancing measures and adequate hygiene protocols, all dogs should still be able to attend and safely be groomed.

Jasmine will be wearing gloves upon your arrival, which will be disposed of once your dog has begun their bath.
Collars and leads swapped on arrival for a salon-own lead.
All surfaces, floors, and door handles will be disinfected between each groom.
Maximum one customer in reception at any time.
Please stay safe and if you are unable to attend your appointment, please do let us know.

We have taken into consideration the government announcement on Friday, and in line with these announcements we have increased our health and safety measures as per the emails over the last few days to our clients.

We provide dog care for many key workers and frontline staff and feel that while we are in a position to help them, continue providing help for those most vulnerable and in need we will try to do so.
Going forward we will be locking the main door into reception and ask that only 1 person ( & dog/s) enter the outer doorway at any time. We will then open the door and take the lead from you before leading your dog into daycare and the reverse on collection. While in the doorway or equally waiting your turn to enter to the front of the building, could you all please adopt the social distancing guidelines. This will dramatically reduce the likelyhood of close contact.
If you were effected by Fridays announcement and you need to cancel services or add more please advise, if you haven't already as this will allow us to monitor staff levels and plan for the coming days/weeks and months.
We understand this is a scary time for us all, however we are doing our upmost to ensure full hygiene and safety measures so we can continue to provide you all with the care required for your beloved dog.
If you require anything from the shop, we will ensure you will be the only person at that time.
We will update you again as and when we know more. Stay safe and as always, thank you for your continued support.

“My dog loves going here he has a full day socialising with other dogs and comes home completely tired out.
It’s great for high energy dogs who need that extra bit of exercise and the shop and groomer are super convenient as well.” – Anna
