Overview

Dog groomers and dog grooming businesses are in high demand. If you want to have a career as a dog groomer there doesn’t seem to be a better time to do it. You can gain employment in a number of animal shelters or clinics, even dog grooming services or take your first step to starting a dog grooming business. Advanced Diploma in Dog Grooming Techniques at QLS Level 3 course has given individuals who are animal lovers an opportunity of starting their own pet grooming business. Unlike in the past, pet grooming is no longer limited to celebrities. It is ideal for people who live fast-paced lifestyles or need to be away on work often. Grooming has become a part of the animal care routine. Grooming is essential in terms of not just bathing your pet but also maintaining animal health and welfare. Grooming is also widely performed on livestock.

While animals are known to groom themselves, you have to wonder how good of a job they actually do. Can they reach those difficult places? This is the time pet owners need to step in and take over grooming duties. Advanced Diploma in Dog Grooming Techniques at QLS Level 3 is a practical course that will educate individuals on how to perform grooming tasks on their pets.

Not every animal is groomed in the same way. For instance, some dogs have short fur and others have long fur. The course will enable individuals to understand different techniques of grooming different dogs. The course will feature key topics on dog grooming like the best grooming tools, understanding different types of dog coats, practicing safety procedures during grooming and how to build trust with a dog during their grooming session.
