Not at all! You can learn how to give your dog a teddy bear cut with no prior experience grooming dogs. There will be no complicated terminology or techniques skipped over—plus you'll be able to watch each technique as often as you like.

What you invest in your grooming setup depends on how much of the groom you'd like to do. For instance, if you're going to complete the trim on your pet you'll need to purchase clippers and shears. The investment you put into your equipment will pay for itself as your professional grooming expenses are reduced or eliminated altogether.
