Opal, now 24, went to Winsford Academy earlier than beginning at Reaseheath College the place she did an animal administration course, alongside a canine grooming qualification.
Having labored for different businesses after qualifying in 2016, she determined to go self-employed to have extra management over her work life.

Now, Opal, who has two old english bulldogs herself, works six days per week and could not be happier.
She stated: “I have always had a passion for animals, ever since I was little.
“I find dog grooming so therapeutic and always love the see the transformations.
“As well as this, when a nervous dog comes in, I like to take the time to ensure they’re comfortable. I had a dog who was absolutely terrified of grooming so I made them comfortable and a few sessions later the dog was actually pulling their owner to come into the salon!
“I also love the theory side of it, like why does a dog have a certain haircut and what is the correct haircut! There’s a lot to dog grooming.”
