13. Models for Grooming Dogs

What it is: Pet influencers and dog models
Invented: as a trend around 2015
The average cost of a grooming session is $56.12.
Grooming dogs used to be purely a practical matter. Dog shows later elevated it to an art form, and today everyone practices freestyle grooming in an attempt to get the most inventive hairstyle. Grooming your dog's hair into geometric shapes like cubes, trapezoids, or parallelograms is a recent trend in Japan.

This particularly applies to toy poodles. As the number of Japanese owners of toy poodles rises, grooming establishments have been forced to raise their fees by $4.55 to $9.10. Grooming typically costs $56.12 (6,000 Japanese yen), so this represents a 10–20% rise in prices.
The good news is that having a stand-in model as a demonstration is a good method to ensure you're getting the groom you want, given how slowly certain dog fur or hair grows (depending on the pooch's diet and breed).
