Not all home study dog grooming training courses are created equal! Before making a choice, you should carefully compare and understand the training curriculum, tools, level of support and assistance you will be getting as part of the program. Your success depends on it!
We have observed that the home dog grooming training programs offered on the Internet are primarily offered by one of two types of companies.
| 1. The first is what we call “corporate schools,” some offering over 70 home study training programs in fields from Accounting to Web Page Design, including ‘Pet Groomer.’ |
|
We can’t comment on the quality of their training programs for other career areas, but we can tell you that the ‘Pet Groomer’ programs from some of these ‘schools’ have serious deficiencies that will make it much more difficult to achieve your goal of becoming a successful dog groomer. |
|
Dog grooming training for home study is not just another topic to say we cover - |
| 2. The second type of company offering home grooming training programs is small (as we are!), generally concentrating only on dog or pet grooming. These ‘dedicated’ training company programs generally provide better training materials and support, but they can also vary significantly in cost, tool quality (if they offer tools) and the level of support they offer. |
| We offer what we believe are the best and most complete training materials, the highest quality tools and the most personalized support you can get! |
We think our dedication to do one thing and do it well will become clear when you compare the areas that make up a good dog grooming training program.

“I want to thank you so much for the materials that you offer…it was the best way for me to learn and your techniques are easy to follow. I have to be honest…my husband said there is NO WAY that you can learn to groom dogs from something you found on the internet…he does not say that now! He watched some of the videos and was very impressed! I have been grooming for over a year now (full time) and it looks like I will double my income for the next year! Thanks again.”
