The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy - Northwich

I have just completed the level 3 dog grooming diploma at The Paw Pad, I have had an amazing 1-1 experience with kind, friendly and experienced tutors. I felt comfortable and confident when handling the dogs in the salon knowing that I had full support by the staff. The owner Al was also able to provide amazing tips and tricks from a business perspective which has set me on the right path to becoming an Independent dog groomer. You are all amazing and thank you for all your help!

If you are thinking about completing a dog grooming course, I highly recommend The Paw Pad team.

I did my L3 Dog Grooming course at the Paw Pad in December 2021. Since then I have been able to start up my own dog grooming business. The environment was comfortable and welcoming and there was not a moment where I felt disappointed or nervous. All the teachers were wonderful and I have remained in contact with some of them. Being 18 at the time I was initially worried that my age would not be taken seriously however, my experience was amazing. They were always up to offer me challenges and Allen even picked me up from my hotel a few times to drive me to the academy when my taxi didn't turn up. I would 100% recommend the paw pad - They do not discriminate on experience, they are patient, passionate and wonderful teachers. I hope I can see them all again soon 🙂

After starting the leave 3 grooming course at the end of January this year I was unable to finish the course due to illness.
Al the owner very kindly offered me to start from the beginning again which I can now say that I have just finished the course and now looking forward to getting going on my new business adventure.
I would like to say how relaxed and welcoming all the staff made not just me but all the students feel.
A big shout out to Deb's, sally and Abbie for your your teaching skills.
I have learned so much from you guys and now I have the confidence to take the next step forward so a huge thank you.
Not forgetting Al for your knowledge on how to run a business .
I really appreciated you passing all your knowledge a expertise.
I loved the last 3 weeks learning at the paw pad I was a little sad when it came to an end . hopefully I will get to pop in and see you all in the future .

I recently completed my level 3 dog grooming course and the team were fantastic. The trainers and owner were extremely welcoming and made me feel comfortable from the beginning. The level of training provided was excellent and the support is still there when you finish the course. On day 1 you are given health and safety briefing for your own safety and the dogs, this is carried on throughout the course as health and safety for all parties is their main priority. They are all amazing at what they do and their love for the dogs is unreal ♥️ I would highly recommend a course or a dog groom here.

I recently took the level 2 dog grooming course for a career change and learnt so much in 10 days! The tutors were wonderful and helped every step of the way to gain confidence grooming dogs all sizes and temperaments. If you’re also looking for a career change I highly recommend The Paw Pad!

I did my Level 2 course with The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy. I traveled from Northern Ireland to do the course and I wasn’t disappointed.
The staff were all super friendly and helpful and I got all the practical experience I had hoped for.
The facilities are nice and relaxed and the number of people on the courses are small. Great website and I wouldn’t hesitate to return to do my Level 3 in future.
Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to go into grooming professionally and support is there after your course should you need it.
Thanks guys x

I completed my level 3 diploma here at the Paw Pad Grooming School. I would highly recommend anybody wishing to change their career to dog grooming to enrol here, the 'team' are fab-u-less!

Just to add, the safety of the dogs during our training was definitely the biggest priority, this is probably the most important lesson that I walked away with.
