FIRST PRIZE – BARKING BARBERS

Angel Dominic Moore set up Barking Barbers in April 2007 after retraining to become a dog groomer. He spotted a gap in the market for high quality health and healing treatments for dogs and the business now offers a range of holistic grooming, Reiki healing, nutritional advice and massage for dogs plus accessories and pet products sold online.

Angel Dominic Moore, who is a qualified Dog Groomer and Reiki Animal Healer, has been given the nick name, ‘Cesar Millan’ (The Dog Whisperer) by many clients due to his calming influence on dogs.

Angel’s passion for caring for animals has been a driving force all his life. His own dog, Duke, is a rescue from Manchester Dogs Home and Barking Barbers works closely with the home, offering services free of charge and raising money for the charity.

Angel, Owner of Barking Barbers said: “I feel elated to have won £10,000 in the EnterPrize competition. The prize will help me develop a new online Dog Forum providing advice for dog owners and launch a new holistic dog grooming salon. I want to be part of the changing face of dog grooming in the UK by encouraging better care and understanding of pets through knowledge.”
