About Posh Pets Spain

We offer four types of dog grooming training courses in Spain designed to meet individual needs in an English run working og dgrooming training salon. The main difference is you will be have a fabulous “Working holiday” here in Alhaurin El Grande on the Costa del Sol away from the manic life you probably lead in the UK or in other parts of Europe. This will ensure you concentrate on your dog grooming learning experience which will be fast paced, varied and interesting but you will certainly be in a better climate which will make your “FREE” time seem like a mini luxury holiday.

Whichever dog grooming course you choose your time will be spent working with the dogs, applying grooming skills as they are acquired and perfecting those grooming skills throughout the duration of your dog grooming training. We emphasize precise artistic work.

Our training courses in dog grooming allow for a limited number of students per course which ensures intensive and individual tuition. Students work with the most up to date equipment in a large air acclimatized dog grooming training room. Experience in grooming a wide variety of breeds & cross breeds will be attained. As you can see our dog grooming courses can be tailor made to suit individual requirements.

A life changing career move can be yours.

Rachel who is the main dog grooming trainer has been in the “Dog World” since she was born attending her first dog show at just 10 days old. Most of her family are also in the “Dog Business” in the UK, showing, working, judging & training as well as having large Pet Care facilities.

Rachel opened her first pet grooming salon in the UK in 1995 & opened her second pet grooming salon which became a pet grooming training centre in April 2004. Posh Pets Spain was then born in May 2006 and she never looked back. Posh Pets Spain covers everything you could ever need in the pet industry. You could not have a better more experienced teacher.

Rachel also has a City & Guilds /NPTC Advanced Dog Grooming Certificate.

Rachel as you well know before I came to you and completed the course I had never held a pair of scissors and was terrified, now Sam and myself 12 months down the line have our own grooming business with over 200 clients and we have a 3 week waiting list. We are now looking at expanding. We could not have done this without you and your continued support. Thank you so much.

Dear Rachel, just to say thanks from the bottom of my heart, you taught me how to deal with customers as well as with the dogs – it is true it is the owners that are hard work. The “Dog Bible” that you have given me has been a great support for reference, I am scissoring many poodles now in Milan as there are many here and I did say to you that I would never be able to do it. You were right the 10 day course was just enough. I have been helping at our local rescue centre as you suggested which has given me much confidence and satisfaction. Thank you – you are a great inspiration and teacher. All the best for the future from a very satisfied customer!!

You have been so kind and helpful madam. You have shown me how to understand dogs and how to handle them kindly. My family are very proud of me and we are now set up in New Delhi with a beautiful Dog Parlour I am already very busy as this is so new for India. Your home is very beautiful too and my accommodation with you was very comfortable – I love your swimming pool. You showed me much kindness I hope that one day I will be able to come over to Spain once again. Thank you for all your teaching.

You have given me inspiration, you work so hard and have accomplished so much I hope that I when I set up in the UK I will take a leaf out of your book. Many thanks for all your understanding and patience – you are a star.

I took a years grooming course at college but I felt I only gained basic grooming experience, there were too many students per dog and never gained the confidence that you have given me. Your ten day10 intense course has set me off in the right direction I am now working from home in my converted garage and I can now work round my little boy, you have given me the confidence that I needed. Thank you

I am so excited I am getting really busy now; you told me I was born to be a dog groomer. I love it. Thank you so much
