SHIELDS DEMONSTRATES GROOMING PROCEDURE Dog-Gone, It's Really A Poodle Grooming Salon MRS. RICK . . . After It NELSON PICKS UP POODLE Has Been Groomed By Mrs. Shields BY ERNIE SEGARS A poodle boutique may seem a bit much for some, but to Mrs. L. B. (Kathy) Shields of Clinton, it is a serious and very practi cal business. Mrs. Shields is cur rently in the final planning stages before the opening of the Clip and Snip Canine Salon on 104 Pitts Street here in Clinton. The salon is scheduled for opening on the first Monday in August. Mrs. Shields has been groom ing poodles part-time for about five years. She received pro fessional instruction in Columbia from Mrs. Dorothy Lowry, a pro fessional groomer of poodles. Since coming to Clinton, Mrs. Shields has groomed the dogs of ten or 12 people regularly in her spare time. These customers have expressed great satisfaction with her work, and it was partly at their urging that she decided to do this full time. Mrs. Shields pointed out that the dogs must be groomed re gularly to keep them healthy and clean. She said ttiat since poodles don’t shed, they must be clipped regularly to keep their hair from knotting up and causing them a great deal of discomfort. Hair also grows in the dog’s ears, Two Fire Alarms The Clinton Fire Department answered two calls during the week. The first call was a false alarm. On Tuesday, the depart ment answered a call at 305 Sloan Street where a garage was on fire. The blaze was extin- an occurance that can lead to serious infection. This hair must be removed regularly to combat this. There are various cuts that can be put on poodles and Mrs. Shields is qualified to do all of them. Although the salon will spe cialize in poodles, Mrs. Shields pointed out that the salon will lie open to all breeds of dogs. Each breed of dog is different in the way that they should be treated, and only a qualified groomer of dogs can determine when and in what form of sham poo these dogs should tie bathed. Mrs. Shields said that no matter what the breed of dog, it should be kept clean and well cut, both for the comfort of the dog and for the hygemc care of the family that owns the dog. Mrs. Shields, a native of Al bemarle, N.C., plans to open tier shop five days a week and will tie closed on Wednesdays. Since it takes approximately two and 1/2 hours to wash, comb out, fluff dry, and shape a poodle and even longer for some other breeds, it is advisable to get an appoint ment ahead of time, if possible. Poodles especially should be kept bathed, particularly around the eyes and face because the mineral guished before much damage was done. The Fire Department ex pressed concern over the large number of false alarms that have been turned in during recent weeks. A spokesman said charges will be made against persons turning in false alarms.

Most materials that will tie used at the Clip and Snip Canine Salon are imported and are of the finest quality. The salon will engage in no other activity ex cept the grooming and good care of the dogs. Mrs. Shields said, “I want to assure everyone that no sedative or any other artifi cial means will be used to keep the dog under control as 1 groom them. Dogs seem to behave nat urally for me. I can’t explain it, but they do.” Pnodle puppies will also lie a- vailable at the Salon. Mrs. Shields has ten poodles of her own, all registered with the American Kennel Club. She has entered one of her dogs, “Star Bright,” in the American Kennel Club Co lumbia Show in the last several years. The dog has won first, second, third, and fourth place ribbons in this competition. All of the puppies that will be sold are registeres with the American Kennel Club. (Other Obituaries on Page 5A.)
