ALL ABOUT ME
&
HAPPY PUPS GROOMING

Hi, my name is Kym Bryant and I have been working with animals as long as I can remember. I’ve been a professional pet groomer for over 18 years and have seen it all. I have worked in many types of jobs dealing with all kinds of animals. From pet stores to horse farms, vet technicians to working at professional kennels, that’s where I learned how to groom. I loved it so much that after a couple of years of grooming and having so much fun with making these puppies look great and customers loving you for it, I decided to go to grooming school to become certified. I graduated in 1990 from the Pedigree Career Institute for Pet Grooming in Lynn, MA, where I obtained a certification for 'professional show grooming and pet maintenance'.

In 1994 I opened my first grooming shop in Manchester, New Hampshire. Thus “Happy Pups Grooming” was born. Having owned and operated my own pet grooming business from a commercial storefront for many years, I personally experienced the stresses that you hear of. Many dogs become highly stressed in those ‘assembly line’ pet grooming shops with large numbers of animals coming and going. The “TLC” is hard to come by these days and pet owners themselves also experience a degree of stress when its time to make that visit to the pet groomer. It is agreed that stressed animals are more likely to lose appetite, become ill and even get nippy with their owners. I believe that the stress on the groomers themselves in these high volume establishments can adversely affect the quality of their work. and the treatment they give your pet. Tender Loving Care is so often missing with the competition being what it is today in this business.

I have now switched my focus. Having purchased a home recently in Pittsfield, NH, I have opened a new grooming shop on the property with very easy access right on Rte. 28. The emphasis is on eliminating as much stress as possible on the pets and the owners and giving huge doses of TLC to your best friend. I only take 4-5 dogs a day, (by appointment only) Your puppy will be looking marvelous within 2-3 hours. I strive for a personal and comfortable atmosphere here at Happy pups and I love it when your pet runs from the door of your car to the door to my shop. That’s the way it should be.
