Testimonials
"Dogsbody training school is wonderful and Suzanne’s dedication and
training skills are excellent.
Previous to completing a grooming course with Suzanne I had attended
another intensive grooming course in a different training salon. This course
was substandard and the quality was very poor. I was not shown correct breed
standard trims and even after completing it I knew I didn’t have enough
knowledge to set up my own salon. I decided I needed further training so I
contacted Dogsbody. I was in luck as there was a cancellation so I got a
place for the following month.
Suzanne and her staff were very patient, approachable and informative.
The hands on approach to training meant that you got to work on your own
dogs from start to finish. I learnt so much in my time there and really
gained the confidence and knowledge to set up my own grooming salon. Even
after I completed the course Suzanne was only ever a phone call away if I
needed any help or advice.
I have been in business nearly five years now and would still call
Suzanne for advice. I am also looking at sitting my city & guilds exam so
will definitely be going back to dogsbody for some refresher training days
in preparation for my exam.
So I would like to say a big thank you to Suzanne and her staff at
Dogsbody for your wonderful training program and continued support and
advice."

"I worked for Suzanne for 9 years, she has extremely high standards and
is a great teacher. I wouldn't be where I am today without her great
training and advise. She not only is a great groomer but has a wonderful
understanding of dog behaviour. She is very professional and anyone who
trains with her will not be disappointed."

"I trained with Suzanne O Sullivan and Dogsbody in 2009. From the moment
i walked in the door for my starter week i knew i was going to love it.
Suzanne and the staff of Tom And Stephanie put me at ease straight away,
they were friendly and informative. I had previous experience in working
with dogs as i was a member of staff at the d.s.p.c.a for nearly 10 years.
However, i was still able to learn so so much from Suzanne. I received one
to one tuition and Suzanne showed me all aspects of her busy grooming salon,
from the patient Cavaliers to the not so patient but still adorable Bichons!!!!!!
I learned everything from clipping nails to discovering not to stand in the
firing line of anal glands!!!!!!! I have to say i couldn't wait to get to
the salon every morning. Suzanne has a wonderful attention to detail in all
her work and i believe this high level in training has greatly helped me as
a groomer. You train with the best and you can only inspire to be there too.
Even now that i have set up my own salon, Suzanne is always willing to
answer any queries that i have regarding trims or to help me out in any way.
I would highly recommend Suzanne and Dogsbody for training in the grooming
industry."
Caroline Storey-Croft, Waggles Dog Grooming.
"I attended Suzanne's dog-grooming course in summer '08 and found it
extremely informative, hands-on, beneficial and most of all enjoyable.
Suzannes method of grooming and handling all types of breeds and
temperaments of dogs second to none. I would recommend this course to anyone
considering a course of this type. Thanks Suzanne!"

"Suzanne's quest for knowledge, passion for the industry and willingness
to share and advise on all aspects of dog grooming gives you the confidence
to proceed seamlessly from your training with her to wherever your career
takes you."
