How Is LIGA Different?

Unlike other schools that ask you to bring in your own dogs or a neighbor’s dog to practice on, we have an endless supply of different breeds, sizes and coat types for you to practice on. You will be grooming several dogs per day and dealing with the public to learn how to satisfy the pet parents. We are there guiding and teaching you every step of the way.
