## Resource

Debbie talks to Alison Pearson, founder of The Stress-Free Groomer, about why grooming is so much more than a haircut and how owners can set their dogs up for a positive experience from the very start. Alison shares how she rehabilitates dogs that have had difficult grooming experiences, explains what stress signals to look out for, and reveals why gradual introductions matter far more than most people realise. She also discusses her book, The Grooming Gap, written to help puppy owners bridge the knowledge gap between love for their dog and understanding what grooming truly involves. A must-listen for any dog owner, whether you have a puppy, a rescue, or a dog that's never quite settled at the groomer.
