PS - do you know who won??

by petgroomaustralia Fri Apr 03, 2009 10:05 pm

They aren't all from the same comp or year.

by lorie Fri Apr 03, 2009 10:11 pm

The rooster, peacock and Ninja turtle are the same person, Sandy Hartness.
I love, love the purple with grapes!!
Teh fallen souldier, I THINK, won peoples choice at Hershey a few years ago
The funniest thing is, before the comp, these dogs are walking around, partially prepared and you really have no idea what they could be until it starts to take shape on the stage. There was this little toy poo that was all lime green. It looked a mess but when she was done, and the dog sat down he looked just like a FROG!

So are these comps open to the public, or the grooming public, or just competitors? Are they usually just a one day event? Tell me more!!!!

I saw a comp advertised in australia once, but it was only open to competitors, which i found really silly. Not even other groomers were allowed in.

by lorie Fri Apr 03, 2009 10:55 pm

The creative comps are at the end of the last day of some of the trade shows.
Anyone in the trade show can watch them like any other comp.
I don't know how much prep work is allowed but alot come already with some color or weird scissor work that turns into something when they;re done, It;s fun to watch

These are pics that I posted last year after the Sydney PetExpo. It's of the creative class. Some of you newer members may not have seen them. Enjoy...

Sandy Hartness does some amazing creative grooms, more pictures are on her website (sorry that I can't think of it off the top on my head). I was going to enter a comp for creative grooming but their not holding it this year and I badly wanted to beat the 3rd place I received last year now I have some more ideas Sad

ohwell, I never get sick of seeing other peoples creative grooms!

Fantastic! Good luck! Do you have any pics of your masterpieces?

I love, love, love it but couldn't do it, don't have the slightest inclination. Sleep

(ie: lazy)

by Westie Sat Apr 04, 2009 7:32 pm

WOW! The finished product looks sooooo polished. The ideas, the design, the colouring, the scissoring affraid

Just awe-inspiring stuff (we need a little 'bow down before your greatness' icon Smile

)

by justagroomer Sat Apr 04, 2009 9:08 pm

Thanks for that Tammy! What is the comp you're entering called Razza? Dissapointing that it's not in Victoria Razz

by razzapoodle Sat Apr 04, 2009 10:12 pm

I have pics but am new to the computer thing so i'll have to figure out how to post, can't even do emoticons yet.

My dog was displayed a few times on the bit Dr Harry did on grooming (better homes and gardens) last month.

It's not hard to do the groom but comming up with the idea is painful especially with the creative people in last years comp. It's just big fun, the breed groom comps are the ones to win!!

I'm entered in the national groom comps like the ones in sydney last year they are on every year and will be in Melbourne next year. It's open to anyone.

by **Donna** Sun Apr 05, 2009 10:31 am

Where are the ones in Sydney held and are they open to public or entrant only admittance??

by razzapoodle Sun Apr 05, 2009 4:59 pm

Sorry you need to wait anothe 2 years for it to be in Sydney again. It rotates each year Sydney, Brisbane then Melbourne. so brisbane this year Melb next then back to Sydney 2011.
It's open to anyone in the industry you just need to regester costs about $20. worth traveling interstate for though so are the seminars, I've been doing it for years i'm addicted.

by justagroomer Sun Apr 05, 2009 7:04 pm

Sorry if i sound like a broken record here, whats the one in Melbourne next year? Is it the Pet Expo? Coause AusGroom is here in Melb this year.

by pawsenses Sun Apr 05, 2009 9:27 pm

So if it is Brisbane this year and access is v cheap - with cheap flights that would be more economical than doing the Ausie Groom in Melbourne at $350.00 a day!! I would be interested to know more about brisbane??

Melbourne is seminars you sit down all day and hear experts speak so it costs alot of money to rent the confrence room and the speakers. (bit upset that they are mostly aus speakers and it still costs so much) not to knock the aus groomers have comped with and against them they are great people! Gold coast is just groom comps and trade expo so the exibitors (wholesalers) pay for the hall and the info is low just wat you can pick up by watching.

Your not a broken record it is a little confusing if you have not attended before but it's all worth the time and mostly the money, it's like this forum but in person very inspiring

They used to do the seminars and the trade show with comps all in the same week in the same state. They found that some people were struggling as they tried to attend all events posted and it was a full on 4 days. so about 2 years ago they split the seminars and expo/comps to 2 different times in the year and in two different states.

So this year the seminars are in Melb (groomex) and the comps are in Gold Coast and next year the seminars will be in Sydney and comps in Melb. This years details and some of next years details are on the PIAA Pet Industry Association website.

Hope this helps
