    Amazing webinar! I wasn’t even done watching in one sitting and was already able to apply certain tricks to my grooms the next day. So grateful to the sponsors and the instructors for this webinar. I am very happy I took the time to finally sit and watch the whole thing.

  16. Danielle St. Louis

    Excellent presentation! They went over many technical aspects of the several Continental trim variations with easy to understand explanations and breed history. There were some technical issues with the cameras throughout the video, and the chat questions were superimposed onto the screen in very large bubbles that directly blocked the dog they were working on, which is why I rated 4/5 instead of the full 5 stars. I would have loved to see other dogs in the trim (even photos at the end) to see the points they discussed on individual conformation changing the placement and shape of the pattern. Overall this was very informative and I will watch for future Groomhaus webinars.
