On the Cruise | Dougal’s Dog Parlour
Not every episode of On the Road happens on the road. In this special "On the Cruise" edition, Nat sits down with Fran, a fellow groomer from the UK who is in the early stages of building her business, Dougal's Dog Parlour. From teaching herself to groom her own Shih Tzus, to navigating equipment purchases, finding clients, setting prices and building confidence, Fran offers an honest look at the realities of starting out. The conversation explores the challenges of entering the industry, the value of community support, and why growing slowly can sometimes be the smartest approach of all.
