Hi everyone, we're Paul and Megan Walters, we're the owners and directors of Aussie
00:04
Perchambil Australia Pty Ltd. You will probably be aware of a statement we put out on all
00:10
our social media pages yesterday regarding the involvement of one of our franchisees
00:16
in the area of DAPTO of New South Wales. We thought now is probably a good time to take
00:21
a moment and sit in front of you and sit with you and give an outline on where we are up
00:26
to now and moving forward on this situation as well. Please excuse us reading our notes,
00:32
it's been a crazy 24 hours and we just want to make sure we have everything documented
00:36
down so we can convey our information across to you correctly. Please from the outset know
00:41
first and foremost that the footage that came through to us from the owners yesterday morning
00:48
not only angered us but sickened us to the stomach and we were just shocked that someone
00:58
could do that to a dog, let alone someone in our business. We, like the rest of the
01:06
people, we're sorry this has happened to the pets. This person's actions by no means reflect
01:15
our values personally, the values of our business, the values of our franchisees and the values
01:21
of the broader grooming community not only across Australia but across many nations.
01:27
As we said, the person was stood down immediately. We're dealing and meeting with our legal team
01:33
first thing Monday morning to ensure that this situation is finalised with this person
01:39
as quickly as we can on Monday morning. I was just going to add we have franchisees
01:44
in the Illawarra area who are actually quite scared for their wellbeing at the moment.
01:50
This has nothing to do with them. Yeah, 100% Megs. Unfortunately, we have two
01:56
nearby franchisees in Shell Harbour which are being accused, wrongly accused by many
02:02
people of the Shell Harbour area and even with threats of violence. We are very concerned
02:10
for their welfare obviously, so please, we ask people, particularly in the Wollongong
02:17
Shell Harbour area of New South Wales, just let the authorities do their job on this at the moment.
