Hi, I'm Gidget Hagan. I've lived in Alaska for the last 30 years and owned a dog grooming shop and was a realtor. Two years ago, my husband and I moved to Great Bend, KS to be near family. Yes, I am still a realtor with MPIRE Realty, but I miss dog grooming but didn't want to groom the volume of dogs I had in Alaska, so I've been doing research and taking some courses. There is a better way for our dogs. I have always hated that the dogs just had to be forced to "endure" being groomed. By getting my fear free certification and practicing it on my own dogs I know it works and is the answer to what I've been looking for. Yes, it takes more time, and yes it will cost more financially for the dogs that have been processed through in the past. But in the long run it is 100% better for our pets. 

Now for my other concern with the way we groomed dogs, for the most part they were clean. If a dog was itchy, had dry skin or a severe skin issue there wasn't anything we could do to help them. It was so frustrating as a groomer; we want to help the pets we groom. So, in my research for better ways, I came across Iv San Bernard Skin Care System for pets. It is truly an eye opener. There are ways we as groomers, working with area veterinarians can restore a pet's skin to normal. I'm taking their course on being certified as a pet esthetician through their program. Those who care about their pet's well-being will love what these products can do for your pet. It brings skin care to our pets!!
