Turn your passion for animals into a new career. All you need to start a new career is the genuine love
of animals and training from Happy Rascals.
Becoming a dog groomer is the perfect opportunity for individuals looking for an alternative to college, for
those who are tired of a desk job, or for those who prefer to work from home. Combine your love of animals with a new
and rewarding career.
The growth of pet owners and the awareness that good grooming is essential to pet health has in turn created
an overwhelming demand for qualified pet groomers.
Happy Rascals is dedicated to the goal of training top quality groomers. Therefore, upon completing
our training, each trainee leaves with the confidence and skills to start a career in grooming.
The school is owned and operated by Mary Beaverson who has over fifteen
years of experience as a dog groomer and trainer. Located in Pennsauken, New Jersey, the school has 4 grooming stations
in an 800 square foot facility. Under the direction of Mrs. Beaverson and her staff, the atmosphere is friendly and relaxed,
yet highly professional.
WHAT WILL I LEARN? Happy Rascals teaches
all aspects of dog grooming. Because Happy Rascals is also a grooming salon, training is taught in a highly individualized
hands-on environment. There are no classroom situations. Trainees groom dogs every day and are encouraged to work and learn
at their own pace.
HOW DO I QUALIFY? It is not necessary
to have a high school diploma or GED to enroll in Happy Rascals Grooming School. The only requirements are that you be 17
years old or older and that you are physically able to groom. The school has an open enrollment plan: that is a student
may begin training upon availability of space in the facility.
