Tails donated the salon for prep work and DoeValley Poodles donated Fred the Standard Poodle so friend groomer, Sarah Farrick, could realize her dream of entering her first Poodle grooming competition at the New England Grooming Show this past weekend. Unfortunately, the stars didn't align because Fred was a naughty boy making completing his groom in the strict time limit impossible. Although Fred had an "off" day, Sarah did an amazing job. Fred looked gorgeous and she received MANY positive remarks from the judging panel and mentor groomers. After so much anticipation, work, sacrifice, the day didn't turn out like Sarah had hoped but we're extremely proud of her and wish her much luck in her professional career.
