Why a Grooming Academy?
Pet grooming is an increasingly sought-after profession, responding to the growing attention given to our animals and the need for their hygiene to be supervised by trained and knowledgeable professionals.
The idea of creating the Dogtloft Academy was born from the need to respond to our customers' numerous requests for professional training and refresher courses.
We have therefore created comprehensive training courses to learn all the techniques necessary to become a professional groomer or improve your skills.
