I LOVE all animals. I've worked with animals since I've been 16. After working at several different vet clinics and a pet parlor, I thought about getting into grooming as well. It's a little more hands on, without all the blood and sickness like there tends to be in clinics... My best suggestion is to get a job working at a pet parlor. One of the groomers would be more than happy to train you. That's how my mother became a groomer, and I'm well on my way to becoming one as well. It takes time Good luck Hope that helps :D Add: I will say that it will be extremely expensive to start out. You have to get a grooming table, that can run you anywhere from $300 on up Not to mention you'll be needing different blades and such... very very expensive. But you'll at least get a start on it if you get a job working around other groomers. It'll pay off I’m the same way as your daughter. I LOVE all animals.
