Program Overview

The Western Dog Grooming School Program combines the learning of knowledge and theory components with hands-on demonstration of dog grooming skills and procedures.  You will work on live dogs during your training; this will constitute your practical component.

At the Western Dog Grooming School we believe that a good pet groomer is a well informed groomer. We want our program participants to be educated and knowledgeable about the health and well being of dogs, the execution of different breed trims, and the business of pet grooming. Upon completion of our program, many students move to start their own businesses. We encourage self-employment, home-based, and mobile businesses when our graduates feel ready.
