Grooming Equipment for Sale

WendyM — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 01:04:12 +0000

I am a former member of CPPGA and was the owner of Petunia’s Pet Products and Dog Wash in Frederick several years ago.

I have some beautiful grooming equipment for sale. Do you sell any classified advertising in your newsletter or on your website?

My inventory includes two Forever Stainless tubs, two Hydrosurge units, Edemco cage dryer with attached kennel, Edemco hydraulic grooming table, and K-9 dryers.

I purchased all of the equipment new from Steve Booth. I would consider any reasonable offers, especially from someone just setting up their grooming shop.

Most of the equipment is currently listed on craigslist at this link:

Edemco Double Cage Dryer with 3-cage Kennel: $1,500

This equipment is top of the line and in perfect condition!

New Logo Apparel

Ellen came up with a clever idea to use an online company for our CPPGA schwag. The Association does not have to spend ALOT of your money on t-shirts and such. You can go to the site and pruchase whatever you would like. We do get money from the site every time you buy something.

Shop at the CPPGA store!

Spice Bullard

WendyM — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 21:28:52 +0000

Spice has gone over the rainbow bridge. She was too young to leave. As a demo dog, she was very patient and helped us learn a variety of things. From scissoring to color to first aide, she was there for us. Her gentle silliness will be missed.

Our hearts and thoughts are with Kay through this difficult time.

Somewhere a journey begins at the end of the worldly existence we know,

Somewhere a path stretches over the stars and rivers of memories flow,

Somewhere a silence is heard far away and the brightness of day fills the night,

Where the trails of life are resolved into peace when a soul finds its way to the light.
