The Professional’s Guide to Dog Grooming

“The ultimate guide for professionals and entrepreneurs.”
In her book, The Professional’s Guide to Dog
Grooming, author and certified dog groomer,
Laureen Osborne looks at ways to give your business an
“edge” over the competition. By providing what she
calls “personalized service” to customers and
communicating more effectively, Laureen helps you
build a loyal, year-round clientele. She inspires you
to reach your financial goals and gives you the
knowledge and confidence to create a successful dog
grooming business.
Your most important asset is
your health - without it, you won’t succeed: you will
learn how to protect your health so you can continue
to work and be happy. Laureen includes ways to avoid
injury and safety procedures to follow in your
grooming shop. The section on basic first aid for dogs
will prepare you to deal with any emergency.
Novice groomers often don’t have the experience or
knowledge to judge the temperament of their
four-legged customers. Laureen teaches you how to
interpret dog behavior and body language. This will
help you handle even the most difficult dogs. She
shares her method of grooming, which emphasizes a more
gentle, humane approach. This method will reduce your
stress, and the stress of the dogs in your care, which
will allow you to relax and enjoy grooming.
Learn the best way to brush, clip nails, dry a dog and
remove skunk odor. Also included: grooming tips for
terriers (Miniature Schnauzer, Westie), non-sporting
breeds (Poodle and Bichon Frise), and sporting breeds
(American Cocker Spaniel and Golden Retriever).
For anyone thinking of becoming a professional dog
groomer or anyone already in the business, this book
is a must-read. |
