Sorry, We're not currently taking any new grooming clients.

About

Organix Canine Wellness Centre (OCWC) is a natural healthcare facility nestled in the beautiful Manor Lakes community. We began as a dedicated Dog Spa focused on providing a more comfortable and enjoyable grooming experience. Using techniques from dermatological grooming and balanced training to connect with your dog. Our Dog Spa uses organic, plastic-free products made locally in Melbourne.

OCWC has since flourished into a full-service wellness centre for dogs. Alongside our purpose-built Dog Spa, we provide Myofunctional Therapy in the same relaxing setting. Our myotherapy practitioner is able to help dogs with all aspects of musculoskeletal dysfunction, from remedial and performance to maintenance programs, utilising massage and physio-therapeutic exercises.

We take the time to understand your dog’s individual needs in a calm and friendly space, so we can provide an individualised service that supports their health and happiness.

I don't think I'll ever stop hearing your footsteps or your big ears flapping 💙 Before he was an old grump, he was the best adventure partner you could ever ask for from a little dog. I miss him dearly every day 🌈

I am beyond devastated. We're saying our final goodbye to Stretch this weekend 💙 I know most people do long write ups and make a nice tribute to their dog. Even drafting this post I thought: should I make a video? Should I tell you how great he was? But truthfully, it won't make me feel better. I am grateful for the time I was able to spend with him and for the bond we shared. Our house will never be the same. A huge chunk of my life was spent with you, My grumpy ol'boy. You will be missed forever.

In my experience, dog owners hire groomers because they're mostly not sure how to groom their dogs themselves. You should not have to ask a groomer to do what is needed. It is the groomers job to inspect your dog and advise you on what is needed to keep your dog happy and healthy. If you have a request or a concern, of course voice it! But otherwise, everything needed should be done. 😌 Ft. The beautiful Mindy 🌈

You know that we know that you know that we know your lying. 😅 We can tell when a dog is groomed regularly, we can tell what they typically tolerate, we can see what type of haircut they had last and how long ago it was... we should never have to find out if they're fear aggressive... Always be honest with your groomer. Most groomers are happy to work with you on whatever situation you've gotten yourself into. Matting, poor behaviour, forgotten appointments, money and time constraints. We have dogs too. We get it. 💙 With love, Organix 🤗

It's not gross to check your dog's poop, It's diagnostic. It's not weird to be aware of how often your dog drinks water, It's another piece of the puzzle. It's not obsessive to watch your dog every time they get up, It's observant. Knowing what's normal for your dog is a huge benefit because you are more likely to notice the smaller changes in health before they become bigger issues. If this resonates with you, you should probably follow me 😁

Even a dog that has eaten raw, fresh food their whole life would be tempted by a sizzling steak...🥩 But... Your dog will get more out of a fresh diet both mentally and physically.

In my opinion, these are 3 non-negotiable things your groomer should be doing without you asking...

To cook, or not to cook? That is the question. Cooked, uncooked, meat, plants, fruits, grain-free, single protein, kibble, canned, fresh, whole-prey, freeze-dried and more. There has never been a trickier time to feed your dog. The options in pet stores and the hundreds of indie food brands popping up online are almost ridiculous and a testament to the fact that dog owners want to do better for their dogs. These brands and businesses are cashing in by marketing their food as being the healthiest, and therefore, the best food for your dog. But what type of dog food is actually the healthiest? If we remove the marketing 🐂💩 and follow the dog's biology as it is today, feeding our best friends is actually very easy, and there is a reason more and more dog owners are moving away from kibble, canned and bagged dog food.

The only thing that ever stopped me from looking after my pets before baby was myself. I'm too tired. It's dark and I'm hungry. He's asleep, I'll just leave him... We went for a big walk yesterday. I have to get dinner in the oven. I'm going out. New Netflix episode just came out Etc. I thought I was busy then. But NOW I'm actually busy. In saying that, you can always make time if you really want to. There's no excuse for not looking after your pets. Off days? Absolutely! Busy periods? Yup! As long as you circle back around and keep trying to do what's best then you're doing alright 👍

A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE OG LITTLE MAN IN MY LIFE, STRETCH! Turning 17 yesterday was a massive milestone for my little dog who managed to bounce back from some severe allergies when he was 10yo 🥰 Each day is truly a gift and I strive to make it the best day for him, whether that's just a cosy day or an adventure day 🤗 I've had to put Stretch aside a fair bit over the past 6m because I've been navigating being a new human mum but I will never forget Stretch's patience and continued excitement for me each day I dragged myself from the trenches (my bedroom) of newborn nights feedings 🤪 You're my best friend 🤗

If you're time poor, but still want the best for your dog, try habit stacking! My dog will be 17yo in a few weeks and he needs a bit of extra care. Since having a baby it has been difficult to care for him in the way i used to. I use habit stacking as a way to ensure he gets what he needs while I keep my sanity. 1. I make the veggie portion of his food slowly as I buy my own food. That means blending veggies once a week with my own veggie order 2. I pull out his frozen food in the morning while I make my breakfast. 3. I do his therapeutic exercises whenever I take him to the toilet. 4. I wash his bedding once a week the day I do my bedding. 5. I clean and refill his water bowl in the evening when I set myself up for bed with a water bottle. And 50 other things. The key is to find something you already do, and throw in something you need to do for your dog. No, it doesn't always work, but consistency is key and I keep trying to make it work. Have you done this for your dog?

There are definitely "better" formulas, but all kibble is cooked and extruded under high heat and pressure. This leads to proteins being denatured, and left unrecognisable to the dog's body, and nutrients being lost. Hence being added back in at the end of the ingredients list 🫣 I promise its not expensive to feed your dog fresh food 💙

Feeding your dog is not as difficult as you think. A lot of people think you need to buy your dog their own freezer, have a massive meal prep day and buy food you find gross to look at and touch. Meal prepping and having freezer space is definitely handy - but you don't HAVE to. There are some "gross" food that may benefit your dog - but you don't HAVE to use them. It can be a simple as: - adding a few extra things to the shopping cart - saving your offcuts while cooking - buying yourself more healthy food and sharing them with your dog It can also look like: - the above and/or - ordering specific meats online using a good meat supplier like @rogue.raw - buying from butchers who have healthy animal's like @paddocktotable - meal prepping while you're making your own dinner, or weekly, fortnightly, monthly, whatever is convenient for you. - thawing a premade meal It doesn't have to be: - weighing food to the gram - spending hours searching for specific ingredients - becoming a scientist

Is your dog feeling hot? Give them some watermelon! Watermelon is roughly 92% water. While drinking water is important, the water in fruit is "structured" water, packed with nutrients that help the body absorb fluid more effectively. Containing Vitamins A, B6, and C: These support their immune system and skin health. As well as cognitive function and physical and mental stress. *do not feed rind or seeds 💙

Did you do more research about your new phone than you did about your puppy? Looking at how cute your puppies parents are is not enough. Professionals, like @zenergyk9 are seeing the outcome of poor breeding every day and it can only stop with the buyers. I'm all for preserving the beautiful breeds we have selectively bred over thousands of years, but im not about encouraging people who call themselves dog breeders who produce lots of puppies for profit, without the intention of improving or maintaining healthy genetics. Why should this matter to you? Your dogs parents and grandparents all contribute to your dog's personality, behavioural tendencies, mental resilience, allergy expression and physical conformation and integrity. That means, if your puppies ancestors were healthy, physically fit, eating good food and had proper mental stimulation and positive behavioural output, the likelihood of your puppy being just as healthy increases. Bad genetics increases the chances your puppy will develop: - behavioural issues - illnesses and diseases - physical injuries - allergies Pure bred means jack💩 Do your research. Ask 100 questions. A good breeder will want you to ask questions and will be happy and proud to explain everything to you.

What's the saying? There are a lot of ways to do something but the proof is in the pudding! I've done the work, I've tested the things and here's my boy for proof it works 💪

There are more and more dog food brands emerging and finding a good one is becoming harder and harder thanks to clever marketing. It always feels like a battle to do anything with our dogs these days!! Ignore the sales pitch and just check these things. 1. Is it raw? 2. What are the ingredients? 3. are there synthetic additives? At a minimum You're looking for a raw product, with human grade meat, organs, veggies and some fruit. Some whole-food supplements like kelp powder are fine and no crushed bone or added vitamins. Then you can mix proteins, give your dog a bone and throw in some real whole-food additives like coconut oil, and egg, pumpkin seeds, garlic etc. I promise its a lot easier than it sounds and ensures you have control of your dogs health. My preferred supplier is @rogue.raw use ORGANIX at checkout for a discount and to support me 🥰 I've looked at and tried a lot of brands over the years and I've stuck with RR for probably 4 years now 💙

Just a reminder that this is normal! I'm not saying to leave it or that its not annoying. I'm just saying it's completely normal and shouldn't be seen as a problem to "resolve". Many groomers will sell you elaborate de-shedding packages but the truth is that even if the groomer does a good job, there is no "fix", only better maintenance. If you leave your dog with excess hair they will struggle to regulate their body temperature. Don't leave maintenance, like brushing, up to your groomer who you may only see once a month! Dogs that shed really need a 5min gentle brush daily. Keyword is gentle! Most of the time, you will only need deshedding rakes and fancy tools is when you've left it too long and the hair is compacted or stuck. Don't be fooled, just brush your dog a little more regularly. And yes, short-haired dogs shed too 😅

Cucumber is not "just water". Since today is going to be over 40℃... I figured your dogs could do with some nutritional assistance 😁 Food truly is medicine! You just have to know what to do with it 😅
