Grooming For Goochland a Success!

The FURternity Pet Spa held a charity event “Grooming For Goochland” benefitting the Goochland Food Pantry on Sunday February 28th. With 3 employees, 6 volunteers and over 15 dogs, the event was a huge success. The grooming event included bathing, nail clipping, ear cleaning, cologne, bandannas and of course lots of love and attention! Breeds included Beagles, Labrador Retrievers, Springer Spaniels, Labradoodles, Pugs, Irish Setters, Australian Shepherds and many more! If the owners brought in canned goods with their pets they received 15 % OFF their total grooms, a 10% OFF coupon for future groom services, and the satisfaction of helping people in their own community. The event raised a total of $400 dollars and two large boxes of canned goods.

WOW, now that’s something to bark about! If you or someone you know would be interested in signing up for the next “Grooming For Goochland” event to help a organization or person in the community contact The FURternity at 804-457-4850 or go to www.thefurternityspa.com and send an email. A special thanks goes out to all those who helped make the event a success!
