Christine’s life has always revolved around dogs and the many different dog worlds.
Even as a young child she cannot be seen in a photo that doesn’t include a dog by her side.
Having taught herself to groom on her mums kitchen table at the age of 12 Christine was told by her father that there was no future in dog grooming.
This and her dedication to dogs has led Christine to become one of the most successful groomers and grooming trainers in Australia.
Christine has been responsible for nurturing many friendships and newcomers to the industry and is a leading figure in the Australian grooming Industry as a mentor to groomers both locally and globally. Christine has a wide network of her “grooming family“ and is an owner of multiple successful grooming businesses and companies she operates with her husband Les.
