HOUSTON - Jan. 9, 2020 - PRLog -- The Pet Grooming and Boarding industry has nearly doubled over the past decade. With demand for these services as well as training and walking at an all-time high, it is crucial pet business owners understand the importance of properly training and educating their staff to ensure a safe environment for pets and a successful business for all.
