Guest Anonymous Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 Does anyone know how to become trained in grooming? I'm interested for 2 reasons: I'd like to actually groom (not just brush) my own dog, and I'd consider doing it professionally if I enjoyed it as I expect. Are there schools for groomers?

Guest roo Posted July 21, 2002 Share Posted July 21, 2002 In the Uk there are courses you can go on to learn to groom dogs, i know they are quite expensive and last around 10 days, as to if that is long enough i really don't know.

GSDmom Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 There are schools here too for grooming or you can find a local groomer (make sure they are good) and if they are willing to teach you learn from them. That's what I did. I found a groomer who was getting out of it and she taught me how, sold me her equipment and I got her customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
