Byron Community College is Back for Term 2! Term Two is just around the corner and Byron Community College is getting ready to rumble!

Astro Dog Bath House ‘Our groomer was a big fan of the Jetsons TV show when she was growing up. Hence the name of her new dog grooming business in Mullumbimby. For as long as we can remember, whether we were mutts, designer dogs, little or big, grumpy, snappy or droolers – we were all affectionately known as the groomer’s D0gStars. We DogStars can all vouch for the Groomer’s sincere love for all of us. She is well known for her kindness, patience and willingness to take on the more needy pooches that may require kind words and an extra gentle touch. She offers a great one-on-one service too. She may even serenade you sometimes – you lucky lucky DogStar… ‘Woof. Woof!’. Contact Gaye on 0401 194 807 Instagram: Astro Dog Bath House
