Summer is approaching, and customers are bringing in dogs for warm weather grooming and baths. Professional groomers pride themselves on quality pet care, and the last thing you want is to be out of compliance with a law that passed without your knowledge—or without your input.
Last year, the All American Grooming Show made its debut at brand new facility – The Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel – due to the incredible growth the show has seen.
“My electric table! I have to sit down to groom, so being able to adjust table height easily is nice. I also work alone, so I need it to get big dogs on my table, and we have an extra which I use to get them in the tub.”
Groomers and pet professionals work hard to provide the finest care for pets and the highest levels of customer service to pet owners.
Mechanicsburg, PA – Sponsored by Groomers Helper, Intergroom, which took place in April at the Meadowlands Expo Center in Secaucus, New Jersey, attracted over 2,800 groomers making it the 3rd largest grooming show in the world behind Barkleigh Production’s Groom Expo and Groom Expo West.
PetQuest is unique to the grooming show world in that it is the only show that takes place in a completely dog friendly location. Whether you bring your dog or not, the feel and atmosphere of the show is very friendly and down to earth.
Do you remember why you chose a career in the pet care industry? Was it just another way to make money? Or because you saw an ad in a newspaper? Or was it because you love pets and wanted a career in working with them every day?
In the next few columns, we’re looking forward to introducing you—or reacquainting you—with the AKC and the wide variety of resources and programs we offer you and the dog–owning public to advance responsible dog ownership, the health and wellbeing of dogs, and assure the future of purpose–bred dogs.
