About Deb

Hi, I’m Deb, the heart behind The Country Canine Grooming Studio! My love for dogs started long before I became a groomer. I grew up with dogs, my dog, grandparents dogs, friends dogs. I was always the one looking for the dogs to play with.

Since 2018, I’ve been actively involved in animal rescue in Puebla, Mexico, helping abandoned dogs find safety and care. That passion led me to volunteer for Meals for Mutts, a non-profit that raises money to feed shelter dogs.

In 2022, I followed my heart into grooming during a volunteer trip to Mexico, working alongside a good rescue friend and groomer, helping her and learning from her the basics of bathing and handling dogs while grooming. After I returned to my job in the financial industry but continued to groom when in Mexico.

In January 2024, I began helping and training with a groomer in her shop in Abbotsford and in April 2024 I went to Western Dog Grooming to get my official training. All of these events led me to opening my own Studio in January 2025.

What Makes Country Canine Grooming Studio Different?

One-on-One Grooming – No noisy salons, no rushed grooms, and no kennels or cages. I work with one dog at a time in a calm, safe, and loving environment.

Humanity Over Vanity – Your dog’s comfort and well-being always come first. I will never force a perfect haircut at the cost of their stress. If a pup needs a little extra time or a different approach, that’s what they’ll get.

Plenty of Breaks – Grooming can be overwhelming, so I provide breaks throughout the session when needed. Whether it’s a moment to stretch, a cuddle, or a drink of water, I listen to what each dog needs.

Specializing in Nervous & Timid Dogs – Many dogs struggle with grooming due to past trauma or anxiety. I use gentle handling, patience, and trust-building techniques to help them feel safe.

A Relaxed, Stress-Free Experience – My goal is not just to make dogs look good but to make them feel good too. Every groom is done with kindness, understanding, and respect for their individual needs.
