Learn first hand from a professional groomer the ins and outs of grooming a puppy. A step by step manual to train a puppy the grooming process, is easy to follow whether you are a professional groomer, pet owner or trainer. Very few puppy books give you detailed instructions on grooming and as dogs become more varied in their genetics, as well as becoming firmly entrenched in our family unit, grooming is a necessity to maintain a healthy, happy canine.
