This is a general update as to the goings on at the New England Pet Grooming Professionals. We are busy working on the Fall Festival and grooming dogs. If you haven’t already, you will soon be receiving the catalog with the whole story of our Fall Fest! If you are new to NEPGP, be sure to mail lindacc@nepgp.com . She’ll get you into our database.

Spring Fling was an informative introspection of our relationship with the animals we love. It was well attended and our guest facilitator was Sandy Harrick. She appears regularly on Blog TV and radio talk shows as well. As always, she receives high praise from attendees.

The Fall Festival is shaping up to rate a full five arffs on the bark-o-meter. Special guests include Teri DiMarino, our Best In Show Judge. Teri will also be hosting one of our Friday add-ons. Eric Salsa of Cherrybrook will be doing the other add-on. Other judges include: Diane Betelak, Vero Da Sylva, Lisa Leady first runner up on Groomer Has It, and Sue Zecco.
