Today I was asked if there were any dog groomers back in the early days of Chows in America and this wonderful 8×10 photo I have in my private collection immediately came to mind. The motor on the arm most likely powers an electric clippers…..much like my dremel drill motor I use today. Using that huge handheld and probably heavy dryer for a chow must have taken forever. As a former professional groomer of 35 years, this is one of my favorite photos in my archives.
