Public Statement: The Groomers Spotlight
Dog grooming is a highly skilled and potentially dangerous profession that requires expertise and knowledge to ensure the well-being of our furry companions. Unlike many other occupations, dog grooming remains unregulated in the UK, allowing anyone to open a grooming salon and offer their services, regardless of their qualifications or experience. To address this issue and promote the professionalism of the industry, The Groomers Spotlight has been established as a register of qualified groomers who have achieved industry-recognised qualifications.
The Groomers Spotlight recognises the invaluable contributions of both qualified and experienced groomers who have honed their skills through years of practice. It acknowledges that there are talented groomers who lack formal qualifications but possess extensive knowledge and expertise. However, to safeguard the integrity of the industry and ensure the highest standards of care, The Groomers Spotlight encourages unqualified groomers to consider pursuing a fast track course to attain the necessary qualification.
Critics of The Groomers Spotlight may argue that membership is unnecessary, questioning the value of qualifications in an unregulated field. However, it is important to note that many professional industries maintain registers or associations to establish minimum education standards and promote the recognition of skilled practitioners. The dog grooming industry should be no different. By embracing qualifications and encouraging groomers to enhance their knowledge, The Groomers Spotlight aims to elevate the perception of dog grooming from a hobbyist activity to a respected professional occupation.
The absence of regulation within the dog grooming industry poses risks to both groomers and the animals they care for. A lack of training and knowledge can lead to accidents, inadequate care, and potential harm to pets. By supporting the acquisition of industry-recognized qualifications, The Groomers Spotlight strives to protect the well-being of our beloved four-legged friends and ensure they receive the highest quality of grooming services.
The Groomers Spotlight serves as a platform to promote qualified groomers, offering a transparent directory of professionals who have achieved the necessary industry-recognised qualifications. Pet owners can find peace of mind knowing that the groomer they choose from The Groomers Spotlight possesses the appropriate expertise and training to provide safe and exceptional care for their furry companions.
We extend our gratitude to all those who join us in our mission to uphold the highest standards of care for our furry friends. Together, we can strengthen the dog grooming industry, protect its integrity, and ensure that every pet receives the exceptional grooming they deserve. Thank you for your support in making dog grooming a respected and professional occupation.

π AftonGlow StandardPoodles 6 healthy babies doing great 3 weeks old already 4girls & 2boys Looking for their forever family in 5 to 6 weeks time. Any more information welcome to text me on 07944431857. Before considered a check list & home check will be done 1st so please dont be offended of questions asked π You may think the Poodle is all style, but the βPoodle clipβ that makes the appearance of the Poodle famous was actually designed by hunters to make the dogs more aerodynamic in the water! The Poodle most likely came from Germany, where it was first known as the Pudelhund. Pudel means "to splash about" in German, and the world hund in German means "dog." As the βSplashing Dog,β the Poodle was used as a water retriever by hunters and still is today. The Poodleβs curly, moisture-resistant coat makes it a great swimming breed. The Poodle was bred in three sizes: Standard, Miniature, and Toy. The Standard Poodle is the oldest of the three breeds. The Standard Poodle can reach about 15 inches in height (to the shoulders) and 45-70 pounds. Standard Poodles live 11-12 years. A single-layer coat of dense and curly fur, which is either soft and wavy or coarse and wooly Broad range of color, including single or multi-colored, white, black, gray, silver, brown, beige, apricot, brindle, and more. Standard Poodles are highly active and need a lot of space β a fenced in yard is best β and regular exercise physically & Mentally! Their enthusiastic, energetic personalities, loyal, clever, loving family dogs. All Poodles require intense grooming because of their extremely thick coats. When they shed, their fur can get tangled in the surrounding hair and cause matting and discomfort because they don't cast their coat. In addition to regular brushing, the coat needs to be cut every 6-8 weeks by a professional groomer.
π π..Hi everyone just to apologise for the last few weeks, needing to change appointments & letting dogs down.. π«Between my phone being broken, myself having the stomach bug, my little girl really not well with 'scarlett' fever, looking after the furry babies & everything inbetween its been manic. Thanks to those for understanding & asking if we're OK, touch wood back to normal now π¬ π€ But Please remember when someone self-employed needs to re arrange or take time off it is stressful for us - loosing out on our income, trying to catch back up, trying to please everyone it's not easy we are only human π° Anyone I haven't got back to please phone again if your needing an appointment booked (No New clients for now) next appointments are 6 to 8 weeks time. Thanks everyone βΊοΈ πΎ
