' If you’re doing dog grooming then this book is a must, I’m surprised it’s not more expensive. I’ve almost finished the book already and I got it on Thursday meeting Julie in person, she is such a funny and kind person and she definitely knows what she’s doing. It’s very helpful for visual learners as there’s so many pictures that help. Not as important to but for a pet owner but anyone who wants to be in the grooming business needs this book!!! A thing that stuck out for me was that there’s sections that describe modifications for a disease the dog has during the groom. All the books I’ve read don't have that so it’s great to get a professionals opinion on what to do. Can’t wait to finish it and put my new knowledge to the test!! There’s also a test at the back of the book that is very similar to the actual level 3 exam questions on the paper. I love this book already. Imogen C
