My name is Lynn I am from Lancaster NY (near Buffalo). I have never done this before and I am just learning. I am confused at what is good junk or a must have. There is so much stuff out there. I am a laid off dental technician, but my real love in life is anmials. So Im giving this a shot. Hope to keep posting messages and getting all your experienced opinions. Thank You

Welcome-----I am new myself to grooming and I love reading these boards for all of the information I can gather.

Are you going to grooming school, self taught or apprenticing? (There are so many ways to learn!)

Plus I have found it very helpful to private message people when I have further questions about a topic that is posted and everyone has been so gracious to answer my newbie questions.

Good Luck

I have been studying a home study grooming program. I have a 2 and 4 year old I stay home with, so I cannot travel to a school, other groomers around here are not to willing to give up the secerets (that I have found). So this is my starting point. I hope it pays off, this is my dream. I really love all the advice and hope to get more. Thank yous
