I was in Harrods on Sunday

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

And they were selling pups. Miniature Schnauzers and a fashionable cross breed. Anyone care to take a punt on the asking price?

[difficultpickle]

£1500?

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

Keep going....

[milkymocha]

I wont ruin it as i do know. How ridiculous - did you see the lady painting the dog portraits??

[Floralnomad]

Last time we were up there they had Border terriers ,didn't look at the prices ,but as it cost £48 for two drinks and two ice cream sundaes in the ice cream parlour I would imagine they are quite pricey . A friend of my DH got one of his cats there , it was about £1000 , apparently . As an aside was the opera singer singing on the escalator ?

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

No to painter and opera singer. There was a vair posh lady asking if she could take one of the pups on a plane as hand luggage, though

[Lavenderhoney]

I remember when they sold exotic animals on the top floor. Lion cubs etc. Dm used to take me there, I was very small ( gimmer alert)

[MikeLitorisBites]

I know some one who bought a kitten in there for £1000.

They ended up giving it to my mum for free as it destroyed their house.

More money than sense.

[Floralnomad]

Perhaps you weren't on the right escalator ! Well working on the theory that the cats are £1000 I'd say the dogs would probably be £1750 ! My DS has a Harrods loyalty card , if he ever leaves home that's probably where he would get his pets just so he could get the points.

[TheCunnyFuntOfEastwick]

They have a pet shop in Harrods? I dread to asl, but where do they get them from?

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

There was some blurb on the wall about responsible breeders with the highest standards blah blah blah.

[TheCunnyFuntOfEastwick]

Ask

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

I could tell you, but it would make you scream NOOOOOOOOOOO! And then faint. Probably.

[TheCunnyFuntOfEastwick]

Responsible breeders of a fashionable crossbreed [hhmm] whatever they say.

I'm guessing it was some sort of oodle?

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

It was a poo. Of the Cava variety.

[TheCunnyFuntOfEastwick]

I reckon around 2k for the fashionable crossbreed.

[VivaLeBeaver]

I saw puppies last year, pugs and poodles I think. Prices were 2k, 2.5k???? Something like that.

YY to the sign saying from the best breeders, etc. Aka, Wales's finest puppy farm I should imagine.

[VivaLeBeaver]

Harrod's have a dog grooming parlour on the 4th floor don't they? Does that mean you can schlep through the doors with your muddy hound? You can't even go in with a rucksack on your shoulder!

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

Ok. Ready? Brace yourselves. Mini Schnauzer 2k. Cavalier/poodle cross....2.7k. That's £2700.

[VivaLeBeaver]

Found it,

The Pet Spa at Harrods promises a whole menu of animal friendly services including behavioural counselling, full body massages and animal reiki as well as nutritional advice, personal training sessions and grooming. Owners can also choose from signature treatments including thalassotherapy mud baths, blueberry and vanilla facials, deluxe pedicures and even book their pets onto a full Spa Day Experience.


Sure my dog would love a full spa day.

[VivaLeBeaver]

OMG, the price list for the spa!

£175 for a communication session. wtf?
£125 for a grrom by to head stylist, £85 if you have a senior stylist
£125 for a massage
£495 for a home visit!!!!

[ChickensHaveNoEyebrows]

My dog would eat the facial stuff.

[VivaLeBeaver]

tortoise pedicures are a bargain at £29

[YoureAboutToBeBittenByMe]

Is that for a tortoise giving me a pedicure or a pedicure for my tortoise?

[YoureAboutToBeBittenByMe]

I imagine the price is cheap as it would take a long time for the tortoise to get the top off the nail varnish
