About

ACMGRM305 Groom dogs to meet breed style and coat requirements focuses on preparing, grooming and finishing dogs to achieve breed-specific styles and coat requirements in a safe and professional grooming environment.

  • Selecting and applying appropriate brushing, bathing, drying, clipping, scissoring and finishing techniques to achieve the required breed style

  • Completing the groom, checking the overall finish, cleaning and maintaining equipment, and recording or communicating relevant information about the service
