started in your new career!

methods allow you to take that vacation or whatever you need to attend to, and
pick up right where you left off when you come back. No other pet grooming
school in the world allows the flexibility that we can offer for you!
Q. Do I Have to share grooming of pets with other students or will I have my
own pets to groom?
A. We usually average
several pets per student per day to groom! You are never required to share pets with other
students like many other schools. It is our goal to schedule one pet per student per hour of
attendance. No other school anywhere can offer as much variety of
purebreds and experience we can. You get tons of valuable experience at our school.
Don't cheat yourself out of a quality education by attending anywhere else!
Q. What kind of grading or
evaluation system do you have?
A. Not only is each student evaluated on a weekly basis on
their progress, knowledge, skill level, efficiency, etc, but each student
evaluates their instructors and the school in general as far as how well you
feel we are preparing you for your career. This gives everyone an
excellent opportunity to sit down and review progress and what the student would
like to work on as far as goals for the upcoming week and where improvements can
be made both for the student AND the instructors!
Q. I'm seriously thinking of enrolling in your school, what should I do next?
A. If possible, come and take a tour of the school and
meet the current students and the instructors. We're sure if you take a
tour, you'll be convinced that you want to attend.
Tours are given anytime, just drop on by whenever you like and hang out with us
for awhile! You're going to love it!
Q. Will you teach me just how to groom my own dog or just one specific breed?
A. Yes, we will teach you anything you want to learn for
$50 per hour.
Q. Can you recommend a school in my state or near me?
A. No, we cannot recommend any other school, as we are not
familiar enough with them.
Q. Can you help me find a school near me?
A. I'm sorry, but we do not maintain a directory of other
schools.
