It’s an on-line pet grooming course manual that is 170 pages long. One of the advantages of being able to view the book on-line is, along with the course there are two videos, one which is ninety-minute long, and a second which is sixty minutes long. These include step-by-step how you groom a dog. In order that two videos of that size would come with a normal book, they’d have to include a DVD.

This book, not only, teaches you how to groom dogs, but also shows you how you would set up your own business. Because pet ownership is rising, the need for professional dog groomers is also going up. They’re expecting the need for pet groomers to increase 22% between today and the year 2012.

It’s not hard to learn how to groom a dog; learning how to keep the government from auditing you is the hard part. You need to know the right things to do in order to turn dog grooming into a business.

You’ll need to know about safety concerns. You can’t have the dogs getting injured when you’re working on them. Both the dogs and the dog owners have to like you in order for them to keep bringing their dog back to you. This book gives good suggestions in that area. They only need to be happy enough to bring their dog back again, and again. This course shows you how to do that.

It shows you how to cure dogs of “Clipper-phobia”, it’ll show why it’s not as easy as you’d think to brush a dog. What happens when the dog has burrs or matted, corded, curly coats?

This is the way you can learn all the tricks of the trade. When thinking about what would be the best good dog grooming books, the “Pet Grooming Course” is one of the three on our list. Here is a direct link to their page to get some further information.

( I’m just copying some of this information off their website.  They’re an excellent source, even though it sounds a bit hyped-up. It’s rather unfortunate, sometimes, that these sites use hype even if they have a good product. Just thought I’d mention that so you would know. )

In just 170 pages, this is a whole course on how to groom dogs for a living. You get to not have any boss, you get to have fun all day with dogs, you get to be able to, finally, get a handle on your own finances. Wouldn’t it be nice to not have to go to that boring job every day? I’d love to groom dogs all the time. That would be a fun way to live, particularly if you just adore dogs. You get to love them and pat them all day; that would be your job. So, if you’re looking for good dog grooming books that will teach you how to start up a dog grooming business, this would be a good choice.

When dogs are kept indoors or there is no place where they could dry off, you must have a Hair Dryer or Blower.  Moisture left on the coat of the dog could have some unwanted odor or smell if it takes longer to dry.  There is also a tendency for the dog to lick the moisture from his body.  That would leave a smell of the dog’s saliva or mouth on his hair.

Another dog grooming equipment will be a Grooming Table.  The table should be able to hold the size and weight of your dog.  There are tables adjustable in height for more comfortable access to the dog while brushing or trimming.  Talking about trimming, a Pet Clipper kit makes that job a lot easier. It will be good to have the DuraEdge Traditional Blade because it stays sharp longer.  Dogs hate the feeling of their hair being pulled.  The Slicker Brush helps in combing away the dogs coat while trimming.  You would not want to be sweeping away the dog’s cut fur when he shakes them off him.  With these equipments, handling and trimming the dog should now be very convenient.

For dogs mostly kept indoors, you should have a Nail Trimmer as one of your dog grooming equipment.  Dogs’ nails grow excessively long and curve too much at the tips.  In trimming the nails, the length remaining should be long enough to allow the dog to have a good ‘grip’ on the ground.  A dog’s nails do not really grow long because it should scrape on some rough surface in the natural environment.  Floors inside a house are too smooth to ‘file off’ the dog’s nails.

Another suggestion of grooming equipment that is a great idea to have in your arsenal is a good dog grooming book. this will give you a reference to have on hand while you are getting busy with your dog washing activities. We have downloaded almost every grooming book out there in an effort to see which ones make the cut and which ones are not worth your time, money and effort. There are three dog grooming books that really stand out and would be a huge help for you.
