  • Introduction

    There are many providers that deliver basic dog grooming skills with some kind of level 3 qualification. However, a qualification alone is no guarantee of your ability to be a professionally competent pet stylist who can handle all customer requirements, dog breeds, temperaments and guarantee you won't make an extremely expensive mistake.

    Don't waste your money and time on cheap services and certainly don't waste your money on an online programme which will leave you feeling insecure and completely unable to work at a secure professional standard.

    We can all agree that when it comes to value for money, what we want is quality and security over hype, professional over easy and cheapness.

    We are not going to sell you an idea of who we are or some marketing hype just to take your money. We care about you, pets and what happens in this industry, so we're just going to point out the simple facts and what's included in our course:

    1. We have trained more professionals and put more people into a professional dog grooming business than any other provider in the UK.
    2. We are backed by a world renown Master Groomer who transfers her skills to all those who arrive.
    3. All teaching staff are highly trained, highly qualified and have won awards on the national and international circuit.
    4. You will not share dogs. You will work on 28 dogs of differing breeds, coats and temperaments.
    5. You will be supported by highly trained staff throughout, to develop your practical skills and confidence while working in a professional dog grooming environment.
    6. You will achieve the Ofqual regulated iPet Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming and Salon Management.
    7. You will be taught skills, tips, tricks and hints that are not taught in the curriculum and have been acquired by our Master Groomer and teaching staff from over 30 years of salon, teaching and competition experience.
    8. The course covers health checks and teaches you how to perform thorough dog health checking to ensure the dogs in your care are comfortable and healthy.
    9. You will learn about dog grooming industry styling and dog grooming industry preparing to understand how to adapt your technique to suit different breeds and coat types.
    10. We will help you plan dog grooming styles for a range of breeds, so you can approach each client with confidence and professionalism.
    11. Throughout the course, you'll also gain experience in record keeping—an essential skill for running a successful dog grooming business.
    12. You'll work alongside dog grooming assistants who will help you refine your skills and provide hands-on support as you train.

    If you'd like to own your own dog grooming business someday, then get in touch and we can help you on the first steps of your new journey.
