			<description>I love this forum! I've been following it for some time and I'm planning to start grooming from home later this year. I've been grooming my own show Standard Poodles for about 4 years and worked a little in a grooming salon. It is wonderful to share your extensive knowledge and tales - both sad and happy. I look forward to learning much more before I begin.</description>
