Poodle Competition

HERMOSA BEACH, CA – JANUARY 3, 2008

– South Bay pet stylist and owner of The Studly Pooch pet spa, Wes Murph, will compete in Southern California’s international grooming competition.

“This is my first competition with Lola so I’m excited-nervous. She is a great dog but we still have some work to do so that I can keep Lola calm and put her into a show trim,” says Murph.

Barkleigh Inc. is sponsoring the competition which will consist of three levels – novice, intermediate and expert and four breed classes – poodles, terriers, sporting and mixed breed. Lola and Wes will compete in the poodle class under the novice category.

For the past 2 months Wendy Johnson, owner of Lola a chocolate standard poodle, has been coming to The Studly Pooch in order to get ready for the show.

“I can’t believe my baby will be up on stage. It’s so exciting,” claims Johnson.

Pet stylists from all over the world will compete in the contest for thousands of dollars in cash and prizes.
