I’ve been grooming for 2 years now and this course was a nice refresher! After watching this course, I notice myself making small adjustments and being more in tune with how the dog is reacting. Small adjustments make a huge difference in how the dogs behave, and I feel better knowing I’m doing even more now to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible!

Great class to review lots of good tips for groomers that want a refresh, not just beginners. Lots of little tips like for the legs, positioning them just right and kinds of shears that make a difference in finished look, and grooming faces, the way you hold the head. noting types of coat and the subtle difference in how to scissor them. Love getting a new way to try old tricks. TY!

Great information and tips on holding and securing dogs. Covered the whole body for big, small, and elderly.

Many useful tips, I love that. Sometimes the camera did not follow activity or the view was hidden behind the speaker back and I did not hear the question from the public, but these are small issues. Thanks 🙂
Allie Paskin –
Very informative. Only complaint is that I wish the camera would zoom in more consistently on the area of the dog she is clipping or shaving.
