Now offering Plaqclnz!

Posted by Erin McLaughlin on Saturday, August 6, 2011, In : Pet Health Tips 

I have always been skeptical about products that claim to solve the world's problems in just 30 seconds...that is until I used Plaqclnz!  Ok, seriously though, I recently picked up my 8 year old cocker spaniel from a day at the vet's office having his teeth cleaned and quite a few extracted due to advanced periodontal disease.  As you can imagine, the entire procedure (which included 2 office visits, bloodwork, pre cancer screening since we were taking blood anyway, a follow u...

Intergroom 2011

Posted by Erin McLaughlin on Saturday, April 23, 2011, In : Little Shop News 
I'm back from an exciting weekend at Intergroom in NJ.  This particular show happens to be one of my favorite competitions and trade shows.  While I did not place with any of my entries this go round, I was able to gain some very good experience and learn some new tricks for next time.  The highlight of the weekend had to be the arrival of my new Kerry Blue Terrier puppy.  She is 10 weeks old, and quite the firecracker!  Her name has not been decided on as of yet, but we are working on it!  T...

NEPGP trade show and competition results.

I arrived with my 4 dog entourage Friday morning and got right to work.  Jackson and Jake were bathed and then once we were all settled into the hotel room, Jackson and I headed back out to the competition ring.

Although we did not place, we learned how to tweak our groom for the next time.  Here is a picture of Jackson all finished. 


Friday night they had a wonderful new class, Pomadorable.  Several groomers enter...

I am back from another great weekend at a grooming competition.  Every time I go I am so encouraged and renewed to come back to work and make every pet look and feel their very best.  Seeing old friends, winning awards, buying new tools and learning new tricks really does something to the groomer's soul. 

Well, I was quite successful in this competition.  It began Friday morning when I entered the ring with Jake, the Irish Terrier. 

He was his usual feisty self, so much so that the judges com...

Return from NEPGP competition

Posted by Erin McLaughlin on Wednesday, November 18, 2009, In : Little Shop News 
I competed on Friday with Jackson, a Golden Retriever. 
We did not place, but considering it was my first time grooming a Golden for competition, I was quite pleased.  The judges commented that it was a beautiful job.  I look forward to many more successful competitions with this handsome man. 

On Saturday morning, Rusty, an adorable mixed breed, and I took the ring.  Again, we did not place, but were awarded the Taxi Memorial Award.  This award is given to the groomer who has captured the be...
