We were really proud to sponsor Groom Pro Ireland this month and what a wonderful event it was! Next year it will be taking place in Manchester and I really can’t recommend it enough. There were amazing groomers and speakers who gave awesome demonstrations and seminars. Julie Harris who is a tutor at Hadlow College gave a particularly interesting talk and I wish she had talked for hours as I learnt so much in such a short space of time. Colin Taylor, Sue Zecco and Jonathan David were also there giving talks, advice and demonstrations all day. The best part of the day was watching a groom off between Jonathan and Sue with commentary by Colin. Seriously funny and impressive all at the same time!
We had the good fortune to sit next to Jonathan David who was super interesting to talk to. He is ranked among the five top groomers in the USA and his client list includes Mariah Carey and Ralph Lauren. He was a lovely down to earth chap with so much experience to share. He has starred in Animal Planet’s Dogs 101 and Groomer Has It and he is a firm believer that a dog’s health and grooming go hand in hand and loves natural shampoos. He showed us his scissor range made by Kenchii, which was ridiculously great quality and we learnt a bit about his scissor over comb technique, which is brilliant. He did lots of demonstrations of this technique too and the dogs looked beautiful afterwards.
