  1. These dog grooming books listed here would definitely help a new dog groomer to understand the basic steps and techniques. I usually take my dog to a pet grooming center in Bradford but I would certainly buy a book for grooming a dog at home and try myself.

  2. Admin, I’ve read your article it is a very good and great list about Dog Grooming Books. I hope it will help new dog owners. here I want to suggest new grooming business owners K9sky’s Dog Grooming Business Software. it helps pet grooming companies manage their clients (and their pets) and staff. The tool allows pet groomers to manage operations such as grooming appointments, calculating salaries and commission for staff, daily sales, and tracking inventory of pet grooming products and other consumables.
