As tradespeople who work in a care-centric industry, advocacy is a huge part of our jobs. At all times, we must strive to be sure that we are advocating for the animals in our care. But what about for us? In this episode, we talk about the struggles of trying to be good advocates for not only then, but for ourselves.
The last few minutes of this episode has an important message about TRIs upcoming short break. A post about just this will follow in the next few days.

My internet connection may leave at any moment, but this is what is going on! Hopefully I'll be able to update you more tomorrow on whether there will be an episode, however delayed.
As groomers, we strive for safety and comfort over everything. Sometimes, however, accidents happen when you are working with live animals and sharp objects. In this episode, we discuss what to do when something goes wrong, and the importance of having liability insurance.

If you are anything like me, trimming the feet was much harder to master than it seemed. Even still, it's not uncommon to have one slightly uglier foot per groom. In this requested episode, we talk about the steps to take to really nail (pun intended) every foot.
This is a sound game episode!

It has been a troubling week for the grooming community no matter which way you slice it. There is division, fighting, and a whole lot of muck being flung around. We, your co-hosts at The Rough In, felt it important to take both a stance and stand against bullying of all kinds. In this episode, we discuss the current climate, types of bullying one may encounter, and what to do to be an advocate for what is right. https://linktr.ee/TheRoughIn
