The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy Wincham Lane, Wincham, Northwich CW9 6DE

"I did a two week course at paw pad and I found it very helpful with gaining confidence in starting up my own dog grooming salon. Staff extremely friendly and full of advice, tips and tricks of the trade. I gained my Level 3 diploma in dog grooming. After the course ended they are always still on hand if you need some advice about something. Highly recommend."

"I’ve just completed my three week dog grooming courses at, The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy. I would 100% recommended the courses to anyone who is think about changing careers. Al, Abi, Ali and Pan where all amazing teachers and gave lots of support and advice when in the grooming room and out of it. They have continued to help with great advice and helping with any worries I’m many have, whether is grooming a new dog or any business queries I may have, even after the course was over. They were all professional, friendly and so much fun to be around, which made for a great atmosphere when learning something new."

"I did my Level 2 course with The Paw Pad Dog Grooming Academy. I traveled from Northern Ireland to do the course and I wasn’t disappointed. The staff were all super friendly and helpful and I got all the practical experience I had hoped for. The facilities are nice and relaxed and the number of people on the courses are small. Great website and I wouldn’t hesitate to return to do my Level 3 in future. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to go into grooming professionally and support is there after your course should you need it. Thanks guys x"

"I did my L3 Dog Grooming course at the Paw Pad in December 2021. Since then I have been able to start up my own dog grooming business. The environment was comfortable and welcoming and there was not a moment where I felt disappointed or nervous. All the teachers were wonderful and I have remained in contact with some of them. Being 18 at the time I was initially worried that my age would not be taken seriously however, my experience was amazing. They were always up to offer me challenges and Allen even picked me up from my hotel a few times to drive me to the academy when my taxi didn't turn up. I would 100% recommend the paw pad - They do not discriminate on experience, they are patient, passionate and wonderful teachers. I hope I can see them all again soon :)"

"Al and team are really friendly and helpful. They groomed my cocker spaniel who was looking more like a rug and now is happy and clean and beautiful. They also dealt with his claws confidently that tend to curl and he wasn’t stressed at all. Thanks Ali and Abi too."
