Hi everyone,
I am a new member but a long term lurker. I have two little tzus that I take to a professional groomer once a month. It costs me $80 a month. I don't mind spending the money under ordinary circumstances and love my groomer but my husband's job was a victim of the recession and I am looking for ways to save some money.
I looked online for community school classes but was not successful in finding any classes on grooming dogs. I then searched for professional dog grooming schools. I found one that will train you to groom your own dog for $50 an hour.
Being a math teacher . . . I did the math. Even if it took two or three visits at $50 an hour, I could quickly recoup my money in grooming costs.
My question is has anyone else done this sort of thing? If you groom your own long-haired dogs, how did you learn how to do it?
