In this print titled "At a canine beauty parlour, Knightsbridge, London. Preparing dogs for a show. Shearing (Clipping a poodle)", taken on 1 May 1928 by Between The Wars, we are transported back in time to witness the meticulous grooming process of show dogs in all its glory. The image showcases an alfieri poodle, with its distinctive curly hair, standing proudly on a table bench as it undergoes its pre-show makeover. With sheer concentration etched on the face of the dog groomer, she carefully wields her shears scissors to shape and style the poodle's coat into an immaculate continental clip. As we observe this amusing scene unfold at the prestigious canine beauty parlour in Knightsbridge, London, it is hard not to be captivated by the quirky charm of these pampered pooches. The panting dog seems both excited and slightly bewildered by all the attention lavished upon it. This snapshot from history reminds us of the unique bond between humans and animals as well as our desire for perfection even when it comes to our furry companions' appearance. It serves as a testament to the dedication and skill required in preparing show dogs for their moment in the spotlight. With its blend of humor and nostalgia, this timeless photograph offers viewers a glimpse into an era where even our four-legged friends were subject to fashion trends – making us smile while appreciating both their natural beauty and human ingenuity.
