With your saving you could – Make a Donation to a Dog Charity!
This year we have been supporting a local animal welfare charity close to our headquarters and our hearts called Almost Home NI. Our Ecommerce manager Annie, and Key Accounts Manager Olya both adopted dogs in 2019 from Almost Home NI and were so impressed with how the centre runs and how well cared for all the animals were. The centre is volunteer-run and over 190 people give their time and energy to help to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome companion animals. If budgets are tight and you can’t afford to support financially you could also look at donating your time and skills as a professional groomer to help these animals have the best chance of finding a new home Supporting these charities will save animals lives and a great bonus if it creates some potential new customers.
Groom Professional Nero Table
A groomer’s body endures daily strain from constant standing, lifting and moving. It is so important to make sure that both baths and tables are at a good height so as to avoid hunching while working. Working with tables that aren’t a suitable height can lead to long term back problems which could shorten a groomer’s career. If you work in a busy salon with multiple groomers sharing equipment, having an adjustable table will allow different groomers to use it in comfort. The New is an incredible piece of equipment, and with 30% Black Dog Tag Discount, this is an absolute bargain.
Whether you’re starting out and keen to invest in the right tools to grow your business or whether you’re a more experienced groomer looking for an upgrade, the Nero with its double holding frame is perfect for grooming small – medium dogs up to 90kg. The workspace tabletop is a massive 126cm x 65cm and the Nero’s unique ‘Z’ design lifting mechanism, will ensure that it is steady whether at its lowest (65.5cm) or its highest (106cm) point. We are all taking extra care with hygiene at the moment, groomer salons are no different, so the completely removable top of this table will allow easy cleaning and sanitising.
