Doug, thanks for sharing, I've been kicking around the idea of becoming a dog groomer myself but that's another story for another post. Here is a sample of how I currently have my home studio set up.

The table is approximately 4.5ft (width) X 3.5 feet (height) X 2 feet (high). It's heavy and bulky and not very portable. I'm looking for a better solution to this. Of course this set up only works for smaller breeds of dogs, cats and other small critters. Large and giant breeds I would photograph on the floor or outdoors.
