One of my earliest childhood memories features me begging my mother to give our huge, hairy sheepdog mix some ground beef so he’d sit still long enough for me to brush him. As a kid my toy box was riddled with stuffed toys I had combed until they were bald. For my 8th birthday my best friend, Emily, gave me a professional dog-grooming book. I thought it was a rather odd gift, but read it cover to cover. That dog-eared volume has a treasured place in my bookshelf to this day.
In my early 20’s I convinced a patient and talented woman, Diana Rutherford, to teach me her trade. She gave me an excellent start, and I continue learning to this day. I consider myself to be among the most fortunate of people, I spend my days doing work I love. ♥♥♥
When I am not grooming I share my heart and home with my best friend and husband, Chris and my fabulous teenage daughter, Rachel. Under our roof you'll also find Tiger Lilly the bad brindle boxer, Poppy the black Pug, and Dazzle the cream Standard Poodle. Oops! I almost forgot Google the goldfish.
Our real home is nestled in a sunny meadow in rural Maine. My goal with this web "home" is to share my enthusiasm for learning with other pet stylists. Welcome! I hope you enjoy the information on these pages.
