Fresh Start w/ Mark Imhof

At a time of professional crossroads, Mark Imhof decided to go to grooming school after realizing with his own rescue dog how much difference a cleaning had made. He started volunteering at shelters around New York City, grooming hundreds of dogs over time. Not only did it make a big difference on the dogs being rescued (those groomed would often instantly get adopted), but it also lifted the dogs spirits themselves and gave them confidence. After becoming known as “The Dog Guy” around the city, he ended up starting The Dog Guy Foundation, a non-profit organization where he now has a team of people where they all go do groomings at different places in New York City and help dogs get a fresh start.
