The All American Grooming Show is probably the most unique grooming show in the country.

Jerry Schinberg always wanted the best for the groomers, but he also wanted it done with flair.
The Groomer Behind the June Cover
Over the past few months, The Instagram account of Southern California dog groomer Jess Rona has blown up (pun intended). Her slow-motion videos of dogs being dried to music have gone viral. She has been mentioned in everything from Huffington Post and Dailymail.com, to Marie Claire, and featured on the cover of the June issue of Groomer to Groomer magazine, just to name a few.
Since last year’s Pet Boarding & Daycare West expo was such a success, we decided to do it again!

The Expo will feature new, industry leading speakers sharing their success secrets, fun events, and dozens of vendor booths for all of your boarding and daycare shopping needs!
Since its first year, the Northwest Grooming Show had been one of the fastest growing shows in the grooming industry. But, last year’s turnout was surprising to even the most optimistic of people. For the first time in Barkleigh show history, pre-registration seminar packages were sold out. Fortunately, a reconfiguration of the seating at the show made it possible for everyone to attend seminars.
This past December, Barkleigh premiered the Groom Florida Show at the AKC/Eukanuba National Dog Show. The show consisted of a creative grooming contest, educational seminars by top industry speakers and the first ever, Barkleigh Invitational Grooming Contest, sponsored by Wahl, Crown Royale, LTD, Chris Christensen, Pet Plan, Espree, Pet Paint and Groomer to Groomer Magazine.
