A GROOMER’S GUIDE

TO PUREBRED DOGS

BY JENNIFER BISHOP-JENKINS

This fast–paced overview of the world of dogs will provide context and back story for groomers to better understand what we see every day in our canine clients. Deeply rich in scientific and historical information, attendees will receive a Certificate for this academically substantive workshop. This must-see program will be especially helpful to the more novice groomer. But even the well–established dog professional will meet the most cutting edge new thinkers in our field and learn all new science, history, and organizational approaches to grooming the various coat types, based on an evolutionary understanding of dog breeds and groups.

Recent scientific studies have revolutionized our understanding of dogs and their history, as they have developed into the breeds and groups of breeds that we see today. Attendees will learn the origins, genetic makeup, and evolutionary forces that led to the anatomy and diversity of dog breeds, coat types, amazing abilities, and engaging behaviors of dogs

that we see today.

Discover how both Nature and Nurture combined to create the closest relationship of any two species on this planet: the unique bond between Humans and the Dog. Find out what we learned about breeds of dogs when the canine genome was mapped. What is a "purebred" dog and how does the recent fad of designer crossbreeds fit in to the bigger picture? What do most dogs actually look like and how do they live worldwide?

Learn where dogs in all their vast variety of breeds came from and how their evolution and domestication may have been responsible for the very survival of humanity. Why are the modern dog breeds "grouped" into certain common functions, abilities, and even coat types? How does the origin of the 7 Groups help us better understand their grooming needs? What are the major dog coat types and how should each be groomed correctly? Why was each coat type created? We will identify

and cover basic information on over 200 breeds, categorizing their coat types for easy organization into grooming approaches. We will also cover dog shows: what they are, how they can be accessed, and how groomers can benefit from them.

What tools, equipment, and grooming procedures are right and wrong for each type of coat? What differences exist between "pet" and "show" grooming for each of the coat types while modeling the Breed Standard? We will systematically lay out correct grooming procedures based on the science about each coat type. And groomers will learn the proper care of the most common and natural dog coat of all—the Double Coat—courageously tackling what has been a controversy in our evolving profession.

By the end of the day every groomer will have acquired have a deep understanding of, and powerful evidence for, the importance of the grooming profession.

WHAT ABOUT THOSE EMPLOYEES? Linda Easton & Dr. Jim Warner

A well–working team can remove stress, increase profits and make running a grooming business fun.

Hiring and keeping the right employees is very important in every business, so let’s take the stress out of getting and keeping good employees. It starts with the first interview and the employee manual. Today’s new laws are changing the way we should pay our employees. Paying strategies can make more money for the business owner AND the employee! Tips on keeping the employees you love and letting go those you don’t, and where to look for employees and alternatives to hiring more groomers will also be discussed. This class is also great for employees who are frustrated in their jobs.

CREATIVE GROOMING FOR YOUR SALON Cindy Oliver Come join top Creative competitor, Cindy Oliver for a fun filled, live demo seminar on creative grooming! She will cover creative techniques you can implement in your salon to wow your everyday clients. Some of the topics covered will be temporary and permanent color, airbrushing, and detailing. So if you’re just dipping your toes into creative, thinking about competing, or anything in between—you won’t want to miss this class!

KEEPING STYLE IN A SHORT CLIP ON DROP COATS Lisa Leady

“I don’t like dogs that look like they are standing on sticks, just be-

cause the owner wants the pet short,” says Lisa Leady, a top competitive groomer and Groomer Has It Star.

“Groomers need to show some style and ability, even on a pet groom.

Styling is becoming a lost art, and I want to show groomers that you can still give a pet a short trim while maintaining a great look, appeal and showing some skill.” Drop Coats can be trimmed so many ways so let Lisa get you out of your rut and into some stylish trims.

QUICK & TRENDY YORKIE STYLES Shannon Moore

Yorkies are one of the most common dogs walking into salons today.

In this seminar, Shannon Moore, NCMG will demonstrate a quick and easy low maintenance trim that is stylish yet easy to execute. She will also briefly discuss coat maintenance and product selection to help you deliver that “just stepped out of the show ring” finish.

BIG AND BEAUTIFUL: THE STANDARD POODLE Sue Zecco

If there's a single breed that you're certain to find coming to you for grooming, it's the Poodle.

All of them—no matter what trim style their owners select—should be elegant, well–balanced, and scissored. Grooming difficult feet, achieving a beautiful topknot, and getting that overall balanced look are not the easiest tasks in the world.

Sue will demonstrate techniques and short cuts, provide time–saving tips, and show you how to do quick and stylish everyday pet trims.

MARKETING & PRICING FOR MOBILE Angela Kumpe

In this class, Angela will teach you techniques she has used to market to targeted areas and clientele, as well as the difference in the pricing of her grooming salon and mobile grooming business.

FEAR FREE: BE THE CHANGE Steve Dale

The Fear Free initiative in veterinary medicine has been transformative. Veterinary professionals are seeing results where fear, anxiety and stress of pet visits to clinics are diminished. The pets are far better off, and clients are more likely to return.

This is something that can be implemented by groomers and trainers, as well. Steve explains that many pets visiting vet offices or grooming salons actually feel as if they are going to die—literally. Then, the client gets “stressed out” even thinking about it and is not likely to see you.

Besides, everyone wants to do what’s right for pets, to lower fear, anxiety and stress—and it can be done.

Steve offers some information about why this is so important for the pet, not to mention for your business.

And he offers a few tips on how to lower that fear, anxiety and stress— even before the pet arrives, as often all this begins in homes with Fear Free Happy Homes.

SAY THIS, NOT THAT Khris Berry Ever wonder what you could have or should have said in common pet grooming situations? This is a comical (and occasionally serious) approach to real life salon situations.

GROOMING THE DIFFICULT DOG Sue Watson

We all get them. You know the ones no other shop will do—the dog that gets passed from shop to shop.

Sue does not pass those dogs to anyone; she grooms them! She will show you handling techniques that will help you groom these dogs too. These clients will love you forever. Sue will also show you finishing techniques that will make those dogs with difficult coat types and the floppy, lifeless, choppy–looking drop–coated little dogs look better, and they will stay looking good longer.

SPRINGER IN A PET TRIM,TAMMY’S WAY Tammy Siert Tammy will demonstrate how to groom a pet Springer Spaniel for the everyday client using clipper, blade and thinning shear techniques, leaving the coat with a natural finished look. She’ll discuss how to properly prepare the coat, giving bathing and drying techniques to help achieve a great finished product that you’re proud to have walk out of your salon. All of these helpful hints will be explained so they can be applied when you go back to your shop.

MARKETING & BRANDING: CREATING AN IMAGE Brett Wilson

Marketing is one of the most controversial subjects to date. What to spend money on for marketing.

How to start a business with what branding. Is Facebook as great as they say? Should I use Google Ad Words? Marketing & Branding are critical to any business. You could be in a foreign country and see just the McDonalds golden arches and not be able to read anything but know you can get those delicious French fries! The question is how and what to do. Word of mouth is king but you still have to create an image and brand within your community for that to work effectively. Join us and learn some great ideas.

TRAINING TO HELP YOUR GROOMING Fernando Camacho

Understanding and utilizing some simple training and behavior techniques can really make the grooming experience better for both you and the dog you’re working on. Fern will discuss some simple tips on how you can shape the dog’s behavior, enabling

Shannon Moore

There are only so many dogs we can groom in a day! Rather than squeeze more dogs into your day, Shannon will discuss ways to effectively sell add–ons in your salon. Organizational techniques, efficient grooming, and add–ons are some of the topics that will be discussed in order to make more money in your salon.

DECODING CATS: WHAT ARE CATS SAYING? Steve Dale

At times, it does feel like we can all speak dog—but cats are from an altogether different planet. Domestic cats are great hunters, who, themselves,

ALL AMERICAN GROOMING SHOW 2018

SATURDAY

feel that at any moment they may be eaten. No wonder they have the seemingly “schizo–personalities” they do. While it may be very clear what a cat is communicating, often it is not obvious and may be misinterpreted, even by the experienced cat groomer.

The misunderstandings lead to fewer visits to the groomer, and perpetuate myths about cats. Steve investigates feline signaling in depth, translating the non-verbal language of cats all from the perspective of how cats see the world.

A GROOMERS GUIDE TO WORKING & HERDING GROUP DOGS Jennifer Bishop–Jenkins

How did Working and Herding Group dogs contribute to the development of modern human economic systems? What grooming techniques are right for these large, intelligent dogs with the natural, often heavy coats? Their grooms and coat types are diverse, far beyond their “Bath/Brush” only stereotype. This session will reveal the origin of all 7 groups of dog breeds, with special focus on the Working and Herding group dogs, and will help any groomer, from beginner to master, categorize coat types and learn the best strategies to groom each type. Learn what grooming tools and techniques are best suited for

each coat type. This workshop will describe, breed by breed, the specific grooming needs of all the breeds and coat types in these two groups, while addressing the controversy and explaining the correct care of the most common and natural of all dog coat types: the Double Coat.

ASIAN FUSION GROOMING Olga Zabelinskaya

Asian Fusion is a very popular, innovative, one of a kind, “different” way of dog grooming. Olga will show you and explain how to make your or your customers’ dogs looks like a baby dolls, teddy bears or stuffed animals. Japanese or Asian style of grooming helps to “sell” your grooms, attract new customers and bring your grooming ability one step up to a creative way of dog grooming.

UNDERSTANDING THE FOUNDATIONS OF SKIN Dr. Cliff Faver

POMERANIAN IN A TEDDY BEAR Olga Zabelinskaya

In this seminar you will watch as Olga transforms a Pomeranian into a cute and cuddly, teddy bear trim. She will use blending as well as shaping to demonstrate a balanced trim and give the dog a round head and fluffy legs. This is a traditional trim that clients will love and it can be modified shorter for low maintenance.

HOW TO GET MORE REFERRALS Fernando Camacho

Grooming, like all other dog service businesses, is mostly a referral based industry. However, so many business aren’t doing the things they should be to take advantage of this powerful form of traffic. A referral is the easiest sale you can get—they’ve already been sold on how awesome your business is by someone else. Fernando will go over the 2 main sources of referrals you have available to you and how you can cultivate them to bring you a constant stream of new clients without ever having to lift a finger or spend a dollar on advertising.

WHEN YOUR CLIENT WANTS YOU TO BE A VET Dr. Cliff Faver Why do my clients ask me vet questions? If I answer them, could I get in trouble? How do I answer the questions so I don’t upset the vet? These are all questions we ask ourselves from time to time. Come and learn what you can and can’t say legally and when to refer cases versus handle them yourself. We will also talk about when the vet blames you for causing issues. Did I really cause it or is he looking for a scapegoat? We will also discuss strategies on getting veterinarians to work with groomers.

SUPER SHORT STYLES FOR DROP COATS Sue Zecco

PAIN–FREE DE–MATTING

As professional stylists, we hate to hear those words “take it all off ”.

This is one phrase that takes most of the creativity and expertise out of our job. In this seminar, Sue will show “short styles” that still represent your reputation as a stylist. This seminar will include quick tips to do nice, short trims on drop coats without shaving the pets with a blade. This is a must see for all stylists!

Have you ever wished you could make matted dogs look cuter? How about grooming the matted dogs without fear of skin irritation or nicks? Now you can. De-matting doesn’t have to hurt. Let Linda show you how to de–mat using techniques she has been using for over 40 years!

We will talk about what can cause matting and how to groom even the most pelted dogs leaving some hair. Linda will talk about how to charge and schedule for matted dogs and how groomers can tap into this extra income source! She will also talk about helping customers feel good about bringing their dog to you and rescheduling grooming appointments. Linda has lots of videos showing how to de–mat painlessly and how to groom matted dogs without shaving them in a #10 or #7! This is a great way to help dogs, educate customers and create customer loyalty!

emphasis on D.I.Y., recycling and how making changes do not need to be expensive to achieve.

THE ROSETTA BONE: DECODING CANINE SOCIAL DYNAMICS Khris Berry

In this seminar, these will be gone over in depth and with some humor by someone who’s worked for two big corporations, several small private shops, and is now finally working for her toughest boss yet—herself.

Chris will cover some of the many variables that make every corporate & private shop experience different, including external factors that may make a change necessary. What was a good fit a few years ago, may not be now. Also touched on, the dreaded “IC”; is it legal and is it the right arrangement for you?
