That's very important to remember as people are, more than ever, looking for authentic and reputable businesses. If you don't have or want to build your own website..? Well that's no problem, you already have your own customisable web space on www.ipdga.ie. Your membership gives you a mini website where you can tell your story, upload your pictures and promote your business. You can copy out the link to your social media. We've been doing some digital house keeping and realised that www.ipdga.com was getting very busy with all the different information we have. We also have upgraded our IPDGA to be a .ie, don't worry .com still works too. When we looked at the main site we could see that Madra Mania and the historical Grooming Championships take a huge amount of space and all the tabs for the different items required were making the main site too difficult to navigate around. So we decide that Madra Mania needed it's own space as it grows and www.madramania.ie has been launched. Hopefully this year we will be able to have our 25th Anniversary event in person and the new site will host all the details. But don't worry there will be a direct link from the main IPDGA site and vice versa.

We are delighted with how things went for our Madra Mania flagship event this year . With the year thats in it, we went digital in conjunction with Whippet Media to bring you seminars competition classes across the world with Zoom. As with many business's and events in Covid times we have leaped out of our comfort zone into the new age dominated by Zoom & PJ's . Many thanks to Ryan & Nicole of Whippet Media who enabled this to happen. Covering the 4 corners of Ireland and from across the world Zoom is making it possible to easily reach out beyond our coastal boundaries We are delighted to welcome groomers from USA, Canada, Australia, Hungary, UK & Serbia Sharing new initiative by Jo of Holistic Hound - We are contacting you to let you know about the launch of a new National "Pay it Forward" type scheme within the pet welfare sector. And to ask for your support.
Support for Paws has been developed by a number of pet care professionals to create a channel for supporting pet owners who may be struggling financially during the pandemic; to enable their pets to be kept at home - well fed, well groomed and healthy. Helping to reduce the risk of an increase in pets being rehomed during this period. Secondary to this, is acknowledging the positive impact that our pets have on mental health; and how devastating and stressful it would be to someone who is socially isolated during this period if they were even having to consider losing their pet, or not being able to keep them well looked after. 11 Webinars over 2 days for 1 price
