What will I learn?

This course is for those who want to learn how to groom their own pet dogs, or are considering a change of career and want a taster. For this fully practical course, you will need to bring your own dog and you will learn about choice and use of equipment, clipping, handstripping, styling and additional tasks e.g. nail clipping and ear cleaning.

All courses run on a Saturday.

Entry Requirements

Your dog will need to have sufficient hair growth for you to either clip or hand strip the coat, to gain the full benefit of the course.

As you will be bringing your own dog, please ensure you have an up-to-date vaccination card; please bring this with you on the day.
