About Me: It's fun to know our members a little bit.: I am an award winning competitive groomer, certified in all practical breed tests. I have been grooming for 11 years now. Wow how time flies. I have 7, yes 7 dogs. They are the best pals ever!
I have worked in many animal related fields ranging from an Emergency Veterinarian's assistant, to kennel kelp, to reception work. I have always found my work to include dogs one way or another. I attend grooming several seminars a year to keep up on the latest trends and styles. Improving and learning never stops.
***UPDATE***
I placed 2nd in the Terriers and Mixed breed styling August 18-19 in Seattle. I also participated in Pet Fashion Week in NYC. My first visit to NYC. I hope to go again and again.

Anxiety before the Grooming

I must admit I am generations behind when it comes to this whole computer age. I thought it might be neat to start some informational blogs about something I do know. Grooming. This is about my 5th attempt at this. I don't know where to start and once I do, I spin off in 15 different directions needing 30 new explanations. So baby steps will have to suffice. I think I will start with before the groom. Do you have to drag your pet in the front door of the groomer? This is not always a clear sign… Continue

At 6:41pm on August 8th, 2008, Rose and Alfie said…: Hey Deena! Alfie has his first appt with you next Friday! We're really excited. I want to buy some of that magic spray and the eye tear stain stuff from you, too.

At 5:21pm on August 8th, 2008, Cody Koa said…: Hi Deena,

I am coming to see you next Wed. What do you think about a "semi" lion cut for me? I really like the cut you have on your website for the pom with tan/black markings.

I heard my friend Rug came to see you. He looks good.

At 5:15pm on July 17th, 2008, Rose and Alfie said…: Hi Deena,
How far in advance should I book Alfie's grooming appointment with you? What is the best way to get an appointment? Call, email? Thanks!

Ellie looks so fabulous! Thanks to you and Faith.
Did you get your ad up?

At 3:19pm on July 17th, 2008, Bridget said…: Oh, and my email is bridget@petsaretalking.com
And also, I'd be happy to donate back an intuitive reading for one of your pooches!

At 3:18pm on July 17th, 2008, Bridget said…: Hey Deena-
Andrea said that you're willing to donate a grooming to the two rescue schnauzers coming from Eastern Washington. If so, could you please email me to get them scheduled. They've been through hell, but I think they are really sweet dogs. They're coming tonight, and will get a bath and a brushing so at least they won't stink for you. THANK YOU!

Hope you are doing well and see you soon!
