Hi. I am Christina.
My family has been running a business called Koaland in Cairns city for the last 20 years. I remember always helping out during my high school years.
Once I graduated high school from TAS, I moved down to Sydney to study business accounting for 6 years. Being in the business field was always so natural for me due to my family background.
Dogs were always love of my life!! However, as you could tell from my background, I have never really thought to become a groomer or someone who would study to care for dogs, until the day I met my furry babies in year 2014.
Unlike Sarang (my first short haired Jack Russel cross), my second dog Somang is very sensitive, particular and very loud as well.
Hence, grooming process has never been easy for him.
He would come back either too exited (meaning tensed) or very depressed.
It could take few days to weeks for him to finally becomes himself after the grooming.
This was the very start! Start of me thinking,
‘Why the act of love needs to be carried out in such a extremely stressful way? What is it in grooming process that he gets so irritated of?’
And finally, here I am grooming him and other beloved pooches myself.
Now? My little one loves grooming.
He finally understands that Grooming is FOR HIM. Not to harm him.
As you may already know, skin is dog’s biggest organ. If skin can be well care for, and your dog understands the reason you send him/she to be groomed, they will feel much loved and happier!!
My goal is to make all other furry babies feel loved and care for throughout the grooming process, so they understand this is necessary for them to live happier and fuller life.
In my opinion, this is what a good groomer should always consider in mind, and I promise you, I will be the one.
