So which course should I choose?
If you're reading this, it's probably because you've made the decision to pursue your passion and become a professional dog groomer. Let us start with saying congratulations on taking the most important first step. We understand that searching for the right course that's actually going to offer you the outcome you're looking for can be a confusing process. Here we compare our three best selling online dog grooming courses, looking at what's included, course outcomes and the benefits of each.
Firstly, it's important to note that the dog grooming industry itself is unregulated, so there's no mandated certificate or recognition required to work as a groomer. It is vital though, that anyone that sells their services as a dog groomer be professional trained. That's where our three industry recognised online dog grooming courses come in. What better way to learn than from professionals themselves.
