A little about Jake

From an early age, my passion for dogs was clear. Thanks to my grandmother, I was constantly surrounded by show dogs such as Rough Collies & Australian shepherds. I began junior handling in Ireland with the rough collies.

We got our first Australian Shepherd in 2018, who I made up into our first UK Champion, at CRUFTS! from there I campaigned numerous Australian Shepherds, making 5 champions in total!

The start of my career

I started college in a practical dog grooming salon back in 2021! working with all breeds of dogs, progressing my experience. I completed college with a level 2 & level 3 dog grooming qualification (City & Guilds) thanks to this amazing college salon I was able to swiftly move on to my next adventure!

Shortly after leaving college, I began managing a brand new salon all alone! gaining a new clientele and experiencing running a salon!

I loved this experience and I am so grateful for it.
