Diploma in Dog Grooming Course

What's in your Dog Grooming Course Pack?

Here's what you'll find in your course
pack:


  • Quick Start guide, to get you started on the course.

  • A sturdily bound set of course modules that lies flat for ease of study. They contain detailed, practical information that guides you towards working as a dog groomer.
  • Assignments. Your assignments will be carefully marked with personal advice by an experienced tutor.
  • A useful case that keeps all your course material (not in the online-only edition).

  • 10-piece Mains operated clipper kit, giving professional grooming results (not in the online-only edition).

    It includes:

    - 4 clipper guides for different length cuts.
    - Scissors
    - Comb
    - Cleaning brush
    - Clipper oil
    - Instructional DVD

  • Steel nail clippers (not in the online-only edition)

  • Soft pin slicker, to remove dead hairs from undercoat and top coat (not in the online-only edition).

  • No-rinse shampoo. A specially formulated foaming cleaner that gives the dog a bright, lustrous appearance. It needs no water, so it saves you requiring a dog bath (not in the online-only edition).

  • Grooming techniques book with step by step how-to instructions (not in the online-only edition).

  • Dog Grooming Masterclass DVD containing live action instructions and information on the different aspects of grooming.

  • You get the files for a free dog groomer's website (value £385)

    You get a free dog groomer's website, complete with sample text. Just change the text to suit your needs, upload it to your site, and you’ll have your own website!

    If you went to a designer, they would charge you at least £385 for this work. And because we know what clients want from a dog groomer's website, the pages are better than what a designer would provide.
