Libby Johnston
I will have been grooming for four years by the end of November. Next year, I hope to compete more, exploring new breed trims, including the Bedlington Terrier style on one of my Standard Poodles.
I've been focusing on my business, having just opened my own home salon, which is exclusively Iv San Bernard. This year, I am also working towards my CPAe Certification through the Module 3 Science Workshop, which is incredibly exciting. I love expanding my knowledge and am always striving to provide the best care for all my clients.

Edwin Zhang
“I embarked on my grooming journey in 2015 and have been using Iv San Bernard products ever since. Fast forward to today, I have opened multiple salons in Sydney, and in 2022, I earned the title of Best All Round Groomer, along with awards for Best in Group and Best in Show.
As a proud owner of an Afghan Hound, I deeply value ISB products. My first encounter with ISB in China was a game changer. Given my commitment to high-quality grooming, ISB quickly became my go-to choice.
I have a particular passion for grooming terriers and poodles. The quest for knowledge in grooming is an ongoing journey, and I aim to continually enhance my skills in grooming these breeds.”
My favourite ISB Range is Caviar Green

Jessica Chard
“After diving into the world of dogs right out of school, I was fortunate to have salon owner Bonnie Keen as my guiding mentor, shaping my path to becoming the skilled groomer I am today. Despite having only three years of grooming experience, I take immense pride in my achievements, including being the youngest winner of a Grooming Competition Best in Show at just 18 years old.
So far, I’ve earned over 15 first-place awards and numerous Best in Shows. My beautiful White Swiss Shepherd has opened doors for me in the confirmation and sporting worlds. With so much still to learn, I am excited for the future ahead.”
Jessica’s favourite ISB product is Cristal Clean Shampoo and Conditioner which does a fantastic job at keeping her White Swiss white!
