What is being a groomer?
Being a groomer is not just choosing a profession, it is choosing a life option...It is a choice that most of us make for true love and not just for money.
It is a profession that implies a lot of love, patience, kindness and the desire to help animals that need a moment of attention, care and affection; perhaps when they return home they may not receive it.
It is to find within each innocent look the essence of their souls and through our tools to carve as a jeweler does until we find that precious stone that is hidden between dirt, tangled and matted hair. It is through art and compassion that we get to do our work, and although at the end of the day we are exhausted, with back pain, empty stomach and a full bladder, to be able to feel great satisfaction when receiving a lick over our faces saying thank you and seeing those tails wagging happily, when it is time to go home again.
