    My Girlfriend is hoping to open here own dog grooming parlour
    the 5th of May all going well. She's qualified since last year but
    decided to do an extra years college learning about behaviour etc.

    At the moment she is waiting to
    hear back for news on a loan to get her started to help her with the
    initial costs of rent etc. She had secured a building with all equipment
    and the phone has been ringing non stop with customers asking about
    it. There are very few (good) groomers in the city and one of the more
    famous onces recently moved out of the city there seems to be a very high demand for it

    So Hopefully if anyone has a Dog to Groom they will get in touch.
    Details can be found here:

    Once the place gets up and runnning we will update it with
    pics so people can see how good the difference between before and after.

    I was amazed with all the products you can get, deoderent, special shapoos
    depending on if your dog is light or dark, long or short haired, dog toothpaste,
    pairs of sissors that are over 100 Euro etc. etc.

    You are dead right, the demand is insane for these kind of services. Alot of people take their pooches fairly seriously these days.

    My cousin lives in Boston (I know americans are a bit weird with this stuff,but we arent too far behind), and said that when he moved there first, he used to see a yellow schoolbus drive about the neighbourhood with loads of dogs sitting looking out the windows. Turns out, this was the doggy day care bus that went around every morning, to bring all the dogs to day care,while their owners were at work! Fcuking unreal! Maybe you guys could offer a groom and vroom (shameful rhyme I know), where ye pick the pets up and bring em to the parlour?

    Anyways, best of luck with the venture!

    It may cost a little more, but in future if you want to advertise i suggest a banner advertisement.
