iPET Network launches new grooming qualification

Dog groomers who want to specialise in show-stopping pooch perfect styles can now branch out by taking a new add-on qualification.

Billed as a way to diversify for existing qualified dog groomers, it said the course is for professionals who “want to demonstrate their design and flair at the highest level”.

With a focus on animal welfare, the course aims to “enable groomers to grow their business offer, but in a way which is both ethical and animal driven”.

Sarah Mackay and Fern Gresty, co-directors of the iPET Network, said: ” This course is a great way to continue your journey in the industry, and skills like this elevate the industry as a whole.

“With all dog grooming, welfare is always a top priority, and existing qualified dog groomers know that. So this course is a way to get those next-level technical skills, whether it is for a competition, or for clients in your salon.”
