Upcoming Seminars
We are combining our expertise in professional pet grooming and veterinary care to organize and create comprehensive in-person seminars for professional pet groomers, pet industry professionals, and clients with leading industry educators.
Our commitment to education includes clients. Explaining topics like grooming, training, and behavior ultimately helps every groomer navigate client issues and misinformation.
Follow Lisa Herbold with Denise Heroux and Chrissy Neumyer Smith on their podcast "The Knowledgeable Pet Owner" as they assist pet owners in making informed decisions. With a focus on education and practical advice, the show aims to empower listeners with the knowledge they need to provide the best possible care for their pets.
