Grooming Manager: Dan Vaughn, CMG, CAH

Dan began his grooming career in 1995 with an intense eight-month, one-on-one apprenticeship with Chicago's first Certified Master Groomer. Since that time, he owned and operated his own grooming business until joining the Dogone Fun! team in Spring 2004, where he developed an empty back room into the full service grooming salon and pet spa seen today.

In addition to building a loyal clientele, Dan has received recognition in national grooming competitions. In order to perfect his craft, he has completed courses in canine training and behavior modification, breed specific grooming styles, diagnosing and treating coat and skin conditions, and interpreting product ingredients necessary for proper choice and application of natural products.

Dan's primary concern is the fair, humane and compassionate treatment of every dog under his care. His grooming style, policies and procedures, as well as employee selection and training strive to accomplish the most stress-free grooming experience as possible.
