The School

We offer a comprehensive course into the world of grooming.  Focused on giving you the tools to become certified through CPG, which is a certification that you can take across Canada!

Animal Haven is all about hands-on practical teaching, you will not be stuck in a classroom without ever seeing an animal.  
You cannot learn to ski online, just like you cannot learn to groom on-line - don't be scammed!  
Do you want to learn to groom properly or just shave a dog off?  

While investigating schools make sure to ask the right questions:
(The answers for our school are after each question!)

How many instructors will be in the classroom during grooming? 4 Grooming Instructors!
Do your instructors compete in Grooming Competitions?  Yes!! We love it when our students come to shows!
What percentage of the hands on training will be learning proper Breed Profiles versus shave offs?  
95% Breed Profile to 5% shave off - because at some point you will see matted dogs.
How many students will work on one dog?  Every student gets multiple dogs to themselves each day!
Will students go on field trips?  Yes! We introduce you to the best Trainers, Handlers, Retailers and Wholesalers.  We also go to dog shows and grooming events!

We also offer one of the highest ratios of Students to Teachers (2:1) in Canada! 

Animal Haven is also in the midst of joining PCTIA!

Safety for the animals in our care is our main concern.
