Inside the Mind of Your Doodle Groomer — What They Wish You Knew

Ever wondered what your Doodle groomer is really thinking — or why grooming costs so much? 🐶✂️ In this eye-opening episode of The Doodle Pro® Podcast, I sit down with River Lee, master grooming technician and owner of The Savvy Groomer, to reveal what goes on behind the scenes in the grooming world.

💡 We cover everything from grooming costs and coat care to how the “Doodle Deluge” has changed the industry. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of your groomer and practical tips to make every grooming visit smoother for you and your pup.

✨ What You’ll Learn in This Episode

✔️ How often should Doodles be groomed — and when should they start?
 ✔️ Why grooming is so expensive (hint: it’s much more than a haircut!)
 ✔️ What skills and stressors professional groomers face daily
 ✔️ How the explosion of Doodles changed the grooming industry
 ✔️ Why Doodles got a “bad reputation” with groomers (and the truth behind it)
 ✔️ How to set both your Doodle and your groomer up for success

🐾 Bonus: In my Amazon #1 bestseller Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint, I include a realistic grooming schedule by age and coat type — a must-have for every Doodle parent.

📢 “Prioritizing ‘humanity over vanity’ means focusing on your Doodle’s comfort, not just their Instagram-worthy cut.” — River Lee
