HI,
Visit this site - . It is the Colorado Professional Pet Groomers Association site. They have info on it and maybe you can hook up with a groomer in the area. Someone might be willing to mentor you in your area.
Dog shows are a great source of info and you can ask lots of questions. Most people grooming their dogs at a show are more than willing to ask questions. If you find somebody who is not, just move on.
The shows in the Colorado area (Region 8 soon to be Region 6) are found on. The next AKC shows in Colorado will be in February at the Hall of Education (where the stock show is). These shows are usually around Valentine’s day and are only about $5.00 to get in. It’s a four day long event so bring comfortable shoes.
