Congratulations to Richard on completing his final assessment today towards the iPET Network Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming and Salon Management! 👏🏼

He has worked so hard the last few months perfecting his practical dog grooming skills and completing the online portfolio for his iPET coursework.

I was delighted to award him with this Certificate of Attendance for completing the work, which will all now be submitted to iPET for official evaluation and marking, after which he will receive his official qualification certificate 🏆

It has been an honour, and I look forward to seeing him take the next steps in his grooming career!

Some happy students and dogs from a busy term at the Hound & Co Groom School! 🐾

We offer 3 dog grooming courses to suit your learning requirements, and also Canine Emergency First Aid ⛑️

We get many questions about our courses, which we thought might be helpful to answer below:

⭐️ When do the courses start?

We are always running courses and the start dates are set to work around you and our existing students. Once registered with us, we can usually get you started within a week!

⭐️ How many students on each course?

We teach a maximum of 2 students at any one time, which means you get a very personalised training schedule to get the most out of your practical days with us

⭐️ Can I pay in installments?

We aim to make learning as accessible as possible for all students and their budgets. To get you set up on the iPET eportfolio system for your theory study, we take a deposit to cover registration. You can then pay a daily rate for your practical training, ahead of any of your days with us. Get in touch to discuss options.

Questions are always welcome, please get in touch via DM or email [email protected] for a friendly chat 😊
