Are you trying to choose the right dog grooming school?
Let me set your mind at ease. If you are serious about a career change, then you need to know what to look for in a residential or online / correspondence dog grooming school. I own a groomers consultant firm and have owned several dog grooming schools. I have assisted in the opening of dog grooming schools and shops all across America.
Who better to assist you in the search for what’s best for your future?
Kathy Sanders is a National Certified Master Groomer with over 40+years of dog grooming experience, teaching, and shop/school startups.
Kathy Sanders is the founder of one of the East Coast’s largest residence dog grooming schools, groomers consulting firm, and online course. Kathy is a National Certified Master Groomer and owns Through Dreaming Enterprises, Inc., a consultant firm for dog groomers.
With over 40+ years of experience, not only owning several professional dog grooming shops but also owning and operating three dog grooming schools, she has developed a grooming procedure that makes grooming as easy as 1,2,3. She first teaches you how to hand scissors for your own knowledge and skills, so you can compete and achieve your goals. Then optionally, she will teach you the snap-on comb cheat method of grooming as well as teaching you how to groom faster, which is more profitable for your dog grooming shop.

In 1982 when Kathy opened her first dog grooming shop, she became so busy so fast that she developed an easy way to train employees so they would pick up on grooming quickly and easily. After 8 years of critiquing her basic five haircuts procedure, she decided it was time to pursue her dream: owning a dog grooming school.
Since that time, she has been published in the Ark magazine with a pet care column, been on Southern Days Television show in the Myrtle Beach area, and groomed a standard poodle on Cecil’s World television show in Calabash, NC.
After going through all the requirements of the State Dept. of Education, in 1991 she opened her first school. She personally taught over 500 students at that location and then realized the need for a GOOD online course, one that would actually teach people how to groom dogs AND open their own business; something for the people that truly would love to be a certified dog groomers but cannot leave home for 12 or more weeks to go to school. Not to mention the four to eight thousand dollars that it would cost. Go to Groomadogcourse.com and sign up today to take advantage of the current discount!
So Kathy designed Groomadogcourse.com, trying it out on her on-campus students before publishing it as a correspondence/online dog grooming venue.
The online course with much detail, videos, pictures, and the ability to ask for a video to be added immediately, per the student’s request. Kathy feels the need for you to groom dogs while taking the course. You cannot learn to groom dogs based on theory. The system she has designed and the feedback that you get with her online coaching is so refined that her students go straight from her courses to opening their own business. They compete at dog grooming seminars and some have gone straight for their masters with NDGAA and received it.
Some don’t graduate with the honors of such achievements but Kathy is honest with her students, both her online and her past on-campus students and tells them if they need to work with a grooming shop for a while before opening a shop. However, she will work with all her students until they graduate.
Presently, Kathy stays in touch with Jeff Reynolds, president of the National Dog Groomers Association of America, and has lectured at their grooming seminars. She is still attending grooming seminars to stay on the leading edge of the newest latest and greatest methods of dog grooming. She is constantly updating the hardback book she wrote, the class curriculum, and her teaching methods. There is interaction with the students daily not to mention the ability to call/text her cell phone or email her.
There are dog groomers and dog grooming shops all over the world that have either attended one of Kathy’s classes or taken her courses.
