The Dapper Dawg School of Professional Dog Grooming offers the Golden Paws instructional pet styling program created by Jacqueline Rauch who has used and refined this method over the last 35 years. You may wonder how you can go to school for 8 weeks and really learn quality dog styling when other school programs may be longer. Training success in any field is all about the quality of the program. The Golden Paws method of teaching is unique. Jacqueline, who is a master stylist and one of the nation's top instructors, has broken down each step in the grooming process so the student quickly learns the styling skills needed to create beautifully finished breed designs or customize a style the customer desires.

Our instructors are professional stylists who are proficient with the training program. Each instructor aligns his or her styling skills alongside each instructional step in the program. Each one of these steps builds the framework in which the students develop their skills. For this reason it is essential for both the instructor and the student to follow the program steps in a systematic manner. We work with each student on an individual basis to help them reach their fullest potential. Our main priority is the student and if you need an extra week to feel comfortable, one will be provided at no charge.

The most important part of any training program is for you to receive the very best training. Students come to us worldwide for that training. You owe it to yourself to see why graduates who have been trained in the Golden Paws method go on to start successful businesses and careers.
