The Groomers Spotlight

The Groomers Spotlight Transparent directory of grooming professionals who have achieved industry recognised qualifications. (see website for T's and C's).

The Groomers Spotlight aims to highlight individual dog groomers that have achieved the full professional level 3 City and Guilds Diploma, The OCN West Midlands Grooming Qualification and The IPG Qualification. According to our survey, the majority of the public think that pet grooming is regulated and take it for granted that their groomer is fully qualified. This is unfortunately not the case. The Groomers Spotlight will direct you to your nearest Fully Qualified grooming individual and will give you a choice of whom to book in with and where to go for your pets specific needs. It will also give qualified groomers a platform to advertise themselves in a professional way and to add value to their work as they will be reachable wherever they work as long as they keep their profile up to date. Each spotlight member will have an individual membership number and profile page where they can tell you all about their strengths and achievements. It ticks so many boxes and we think it will help professionalise the industry and give kudos to those that have worked so hard to gain their full professional qualification.

First time at Crufts? 🏆

Crufts can feel like a lot on your first visit, so a little planning really helps. Check the What’s On guide before you go and pick out what you’re most excited to see, from agility to Heelwork to Music and Best in Show 🐕

Each day focuses on different breed groups, and if you prefer a calmer visit, Thursday and Friday are usually quieter. Arriving early helps you settle in and enjoy the arenas before it gets busy.

Wear comfortable shoes, dress in layers, and take your time. There’s a lot to see, so don’t rush it ✨

📌 Save this for later if Crufts 2026 is your first visit!

Happy Pancake Day! 🥞✨

Pancake Day is a fun time for the whole family -  including your dog! But while we enjoy chocolate, cream, and syrup, dogs need a much safer version.

Dog-friendly pancake tips:
 🥞 Keep it plain: Use simple pancake batter with no chocolate, sugar, or harmful additives
 🥞Safe toppings: Small amounts of banana or blueberries are fine
 🥞Avoid toxic foods: Never give chocolate, grapes, raisins, or xylitol (found in some sweeteners)

Making a pancake just for your dog lets them join in the fun -  without risking their health.

Will your pup be getting a special pancake treat this year?!

🦷 Dental disease is the most common health condition affecting our pets!

By the age of three, around 80% of dogs and 70% of cats show signs of oral disease. When left untreated, dental problems don’t just affect the mouth - they can impact the heart, liver, and kidneys too.

⚠️Early signs to look out for:

• Ongoing bad breath
• Difficulty eating or chewing
• Pawing at the mouth

Pets, especially cats, are very good at hiding discomfort, so dental disease can be easy to miss in its early stages.

With regular dental care and routine check-ups, many issues can be prevented before they become painful or serious.

Healthy teeth = a happier, healthier pet ♥️

Grooming is tough on the body - but it doesn’t have to end your career early. ♥️

A long, healthy grooming career starts with how you look after yourself. Small changes, done consistently, really do add up!

Here are 9 simple habits that can help you stay stronger, healthier, and grooming for longer:

✨Protect your hearing
Dryers and barking add up over time. Ear protection can help prevent long-term damage.
✨Protect your lungs
Hair, dander and product dust take their toll. A well-fitting mask can make a real difference.
✨Adjust your table height
Change it throughout the groom to reduce strain on your back, shoulders and wrists.
✨Sit when you can
Standing all day is exhausting. Sitting during drying or prep gives your body a much-needed break.
✨Lift safely
Keep dogs close, wait until they’re settled, and lift with your legs, not your back.
✨Keep handling calm
Low-stress grooming is safer for you and the dog, and it helps reduce physical and mental burnout.
✨Take time off
Rest isn’t optional. Recovery time is part of staying in this career long term.
✨Keep learning
New techniques and ideas keep your work fresh and your motivation high.
✨Connect with other groomers
Support from people who understand the job makes a huge difference.

Looking after yourself isn’t a luxury. It’s how you stay in the job you love for the long run.
