I was reading the post from luvkitties about her family not being supportive. I would have posted to that except the thread is now closed. I wanted to comment though because lately I have noticed that a few different tv shows I like to watch have made derogatory comments about pet groomers. Referred to it as a joke job basically. It never even crossed my mind that it would be perceived in that light.
Even when I was younger and taking my dogs to groomers before I decided to become one, I never looked at my groomers as less than me. I always admired what they did and respected them. Honestly! My family and friends never batted an eyelash when I decided to groom and open my own business.
So to those who think differently, maybe they are not animal lovers or truly do not understand what is involved in this profession? It really doesn't matter I suppose. It is just interesting how different people perceive the same subject.
