Having just completed the OCN course I can recommend Top Trimz training to take you on your journey to become a dog groomer. With Marie's (and Chloe's) guidance and teaching you will gain the experience and knowledge of working and running your own salon. Go and pick up the phone and make that call you wont regret it!

AVOID. I arrived at this ex-pub on a busy crossroads with limited parking, after a long journey. It was busy, and I could tell from the demeanour of the staff who came out, armed with a comb, that they were determined to find 'tats'. I suppose they expect the dog to be perfectly groomed with short straight hair before the appointment. This will be easier for them and not require any skill. An older person was sent for as reinforcement, and put a too small muzzle on my 11 month old dog, who then had epileptic type movements. I found that cruel. I have worked in retail management over 40 years and

I have recently completed my OCN with Marie at Top Trimz, I loved every minute of the course. Marie is very professional, practical and helpful. I was supported and encourage to learn and develop at my own speed and ability. Without this course I don't think I would have been confident enough to start my own dog grooming business, yet here I am now fully booked for a month in advance, willing to try grooming dog which wants to book in. I know Marie is at the other end of the phone if I need anymore help or advice. Thank you so much for a fantastic course.
