“Completed OCN Level 3 in Commercial Dog Grooming and Salon Management I feel incredibly lucky to have learned from such a talented and passionate grooming teacher. Mary Ellen's knowledge, patience, and attention to detail have truly shaped my skills and confidence in the grooming world. Every lesson was hands-on, inspiring, and full of valuable tips that go beyond the textbook.

Mary Ellen didn’t just teach grooming she taught compassion, professionalism, and the importance of treating every dog like royalty. Thanks to her guidance, I feel ready to step into the industry with pride and purpose. Highly recommend to anyone serious about becoming a great groomer!”

“I have just completed my OCN L3 in commercial dog grooming and salon management with Mary Ellen at her amazing newly refurbished premises. From the very first phone call her warm & easy going nature put me at ease. This is one very talented lady who's extensive experience & expertise in this field gives her wealth of knowledge that is just invaluable to a newbie like me. She was always on hand to help & answer all questions with a positive & gentle attitude, nothing was ever too much bother. I got to work on so many different types of dogs & learn so much. Even now that I'm finished my training she's still on hand helping and advising me behind the scenes with no expectation for recognition. I can't express how lucky I feel to have made the decision to complete my training at For dogs sake with Mary Ellen, I gained a qualification & a life long friend. Thanks to her I have confidence moving forward with my new career & I'm excited to see where the next few months take me.
