What an amazing weekend!
The National Dog Groomers Association of New Zealand hold an annual grooming competition and teaching seminars, of which I competed and also entered my final terriers exam. Thank you to everyone who organises these events and enable us to continue our journey.
Grooming isn't just a job for me, it's my business, my career and it means a great deal to me to constantly try and improve my skills.
During the 3 day event (for Novice), I managed to take home 3rd place in my freestyle, 2nd place for my Scottish Terrier in the terriers class (and I passed my exam so a double yay!) and a whopping 1st place for my Oodle class! 🐶🤩
I am so grateful to Angels Grooming and the amazing tutors Emma and Sam and also to Savi and Tash who have shown nothing but support and encouragement. It is these incredible groomers who give me the inspiration and help to enter these competitions and continue learning. I wouldn't be where I am without them.
I also want to say thank you to all of my wonderful clients, your continual support make me strive to be better.
More photos will come - I was just so excited each day that I simply forgot to take some photos with my dogs! 🥰
