If you are thinking about going on this course stop thinking and get yourself booked on. Great experience I wake up and can’t wait to get the day started. Hands on experience grooming day 2 so enjoy the sit down on day one as it’s full on after that. Staff are great supportive and good teachers talking you through problems that you come across in your grooming of certain dogs or situations. If you decide to go on course comfy shoes essential. Oh 5 weeks fly by so does each day.

Fantastic experience on the 5 week dog grooming course at Anrich. Various breeds of dogs to groom. Started grooming from day 2. Brilliant tutors, great staff, family environment. Would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to become a dog groomer.

Rebecca Sells

If you are looking to train as a dog groomer, and at the the end of your training be fully qualified but just as importantly fully confident and competent to go out and dog groom alone, then this is the course for you. The course tutors are fabulous, friendly, passing on all their knowledge, skills and experience, and guide you through the course step by step building confidence in the students. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Kevin Anderson

I took the one day groom your own dog course, and Tara my teacher was fantastic, the course dealt with everything I would need to know when grooming my dogs. The day was full tips and cutting techniques, with friendly instructions that helped me relax and get the full benefit of the day. Thank you to everyone for a great day.

Loz Backhouse

I attended the 5 week grooming course in March. I had a great experience learnt a lot about handling dogs and grooming specific breeds. Yvette, Adele and Tara were all very patient and gave me lots of encouragement throughout every step of the process. I would love to come back and do it all over again thanks everyone.

I have just finish a 5 week course for professional dog grooming, i can definitely say i have learnt more in this 5 weeks than i did doing animal care at college for a year. It is all hands on experience aswel as a few classroom sessions. It is definitely the best way to learn dog grooming. I can say i now feel confident to carry on on my own, you gain the right skills and knowledge to start on your own. The tutors are great and everyone makes you feel welcome.

Laura Thorpe

Currently on a five week professional dog grooming course and I’m loving every second! The entire team are so friendly and helpful, you can approach them anytime with any worries. The reception team always greet you with a smile and a good conversation. James is very knowledgeable especially with the business side, you can approach him anytime of the day with any questions you may have, and he’ll always help you the best he can. Yvette, Adele & Tara are highly knowledgable and experienced, I come out of the training salon everyday more confident and knowledgeable from the help and guidance they give when grooming the vast amount of dogs they provide us. I cant recommend them enough, their an awesome team and I wish the course was longer because I don’t want to leave!!! Thank you so far to everyone on the grooming and on the veterinary side of anrich for all your help and support.

I have finished my 5 week course today and can not believe what I have learnt within this short time. The course is very hands on and intense but in the best way possible. The staff have been fantastic and supported me all the way. Christine isivery helpful when iIfirst made cintaco with Anrich and invited me down to look around ten building. Once again started I was never short of dogs to groom with the large bank of dogs that Anrich have coming through the salon. I honestly can not thank everyone enough… Yvette, Adele and Tara have been the best teachers by far. They are so passionate about dog grooming and deliver the best grooms I’ve ever aeen, they pass on their skills and knowledge to their students in a fun and relaxed environment.

James gave us a great theory day on setting up our business and buying the best equipment for our future grooms, that s information waswso valuable. Richard and Emma was great and has really helped with the animal care side of things.

The course covered everything that we will need to know in our new career as professional dog groomers.
Apart from becoming a professional dog groomer I have alis could me away with great friends too.

Thank you to everyone at Andrich

Kate Shaw

This course really is THE BEST. I completed the 5 week course in October 2018 and will be setting up my own dog grooming business very soon 🙂 the staff are amazing and the girls who take you through the course are sooo so lovely, helpful and approachable. Nothing too much trouble for them. I learnt so much.. much more than I anticipated. The course is very thorough and you get to work on lots of different breeds. I would most definitely recommend this course if you are thinking about having a career in dog grooming.

Karen Hothersall

I attended a groom your dog day course on Tuesday 8/11/16 and it was the most satisfying experience to groom your own dogs. Ashleigh who was the professional groomer was very patient, good with the dogs and gave me lots of encouragement. Ashleigh was very well informed about grooming and shared lots of her experience. Harvey and Murphy were both very good and treated well whilst they were there. I would definitely recommend Anrich vets to friends and family and to give the dog grooming course a try, highly recommended. A massive well done to Ashleigh and team, an experience I will never forget.

Anrich run a great 5 week grooming course. Totally hands on, learning while grooming from experienced, helpful and friendly tutors. It is an intense course with no added luxeries of anything other than one noose while grooming. This sets you up to be able to handle the wriggly and unimpressed dogs well and you will feel confident to be able to handle any dog on a grooming table by the time you finish. Everyone is provided with their own equipment for the duration of the course and you will learn correct cleaning procedures to able you to maintain your equipment.
Grooming techniques are taught extremely well – by the end of 5 weeks you will be able to groom various styles from start to finish on your own and feel very satisfied!!

Although not every breed is covered (obviously impossible in 5 weeks) you will feel confident that you can pick up the grooming bible, find that breed and understand how to groom that dog correctly once you leave.

I am extremely happy with the course and feel confident to go out and groom dogs with no supervision. Thank you Anrich!

5 stars just isn’t enough to give….

I am on my last day of training today and it has been a fantastic 5 weeks. The course is extremely thorough and you learn everything you need to know plus more. Everything is well planned and organised. The 3 ladies who train you are superb and the whole team at Anrich are very friendly and welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble for them.

If you are looking at going into dog grooming, then I would highly recommend you attend this course to gain your qualification.

Thank you for all your help and support Yvette, Adele, Tara, Christine, James, Richard and the rest of the team at Anrich.

I attended the 5 week dog groomers course with Anrich Dog Grooming.

It’s an excellent course teaching you how to groom different breeds and styles, A very hands on course with various breeds been brought in for their grooms, with different types of cuts.

Also learning how to give the best advice to the owners of what type of groom to give their dogs.

They gave us lectures on equipment care, dog welfare , first aid training and how to run your own dog grooming business which I found all very invaluable.

I Highly reccomend this course for anyone wishing to be a professional and expert groomer.

Completed this course in March 2018 and opened my own business, Griff’s Professional Dog Groomers, immediately after.

The training is all hands on and although it’s hard work it’s a fantastic learning environment. The tutors are always on hand to help and advise and take pride in ensuring you’re in the best place to start your dog grooming career at the end of week 5. Upon completion there is access to very helpful business information, grooming videos etc via a student log in which in the early days is invaluable.

Ruth Hopwood

I’ve recently completed the 5 week training course at Anrich. The course is very ‘hands on’ and you are presented with a wide and varying range of dogs every day which is what you would face in the ‘real world’ once your training ends.

The trainers, Yvette, Adele and Tara are very professional. They offer you the support and advice you require and encourage you to have belief in yourself when you think you can’t do something and all this is combined with a great sense of humour.

I cannot recommend this training highly enough. Anyone thinking about becoming a Dog Groomer should definitely enrol on this course. It’s just a shame that it goes so quick!

I recently completed the 5 week course with Anrich. We started grooming on Day 2 and from then on we learnt so much. I was so afraid of cutting the dogs nails but on my 3rd week this was not an issue. I have started my own business now and I am amazed that I am actually doing the grooming by myself. The staff throughout the whole company are so supportive but Yvette, Adele and Tara the trainers are fun to be with as well as supportive both during the course and afterwards. I cannot recommend this course enough. Thank you.

Emma Kellie

I finally took the plunge and enrolled on this course, now qualified and doing a job that I love is amazing!

The staff are so welcoming, especially the tutors and the course is incredibly thorough. There are so many breeds in every day to practice hands on and the additional support from the first aid, equipment and advertising talks really helped me find my feet. This course gives you a great foundation to set you up with confidence.

I’m sooo happy I did it and I’m now doing a job that I love! Working with dogs everyday is the dream (even the naughty ones) 🐶
Thank you so much to all of the team at Anrich! 🐾✂️

Charlotte Warlow

Excellent course, I would highly recommend. The team are very knowledgeable and supportive.

Thanks again for everything.

Kate Murphy

I have just completed a 5 week dog grooming course here. I am so happy with the quality of the course – getting me ready to do business alone! Adele and Yvette are absolute treasures I will be forever grateful to them for helping me make such a big change to my career and my next step in life

Thank you so much Anrich

Judith Fox

I have recently completed the 5 week grooming course at Anrich and I would like to say what a comprehensive and high quality course it is.

All the staff are very welcoming and the course tutors are extremely skilled and knowledgeable. It is a very ‘hands on’ course with a good selection of dog breeds to groom. Because you are training in a veterinary environment this adds an extra dimension to the course in that you are tutored by professionals in areas such as first aid and canine health care. There are also seminars on equipment maintenance, business and advertising which are extremely useful, particularly if you plan to set up your own grooming business.

I can thoroughly recommend the course to any potential groomers out there.

Wayne Yates

Had the most fantastic time over the 5 week period. The staff go the extra mile to ensure you know what you need to know in regards grooming. They’re a credit to Anrich and make the learning special.

James does the business and webstuff and he is very good at getting you set up and everything catered for from that point of view.

The training room is brilliant with more than enough room to operate in and everybody is in an area so the tutors can keep a watchful eye on you.

I was very fortunate to be in a group with the most amazing students, everyone of them wanting to learn and enjoy. Moving forwards we will all be friends and we are there for each other once set up grooming salons.

You get out what you put in throughout the course the students and tutors push you along. Overall I was delighted with everything that Anrich offered.
