Does the Zoomin Groomin training program include on-the-job training for Common Dog Breeds?

According to Zoomin Groomin's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial training program includes a topic called "Common Dog Breeds." However, this topic only consists of one hour of in-person training and zero hours of on-the-job training. This means franchisees will receive classroom-style instruction about common dog breeds, but will not get hands-on experience with grooming these breeds during the initial training program.

This lack of on-the-job training for common dog breeds may require franchisees to seek additional training for themselves or their groomers. Franchisees might need to invest in supplementary training resources or spend more time training groomers on the job after the initial training is complete. This could potentially increase initial labor costs and delay the time it takes for groomers to become fully proficient.

Prospective franchisees should consider the implications of this training structure. They may want to inquire with Zoomin Groomin about the specific content covered in the "Common Dog Breeds" training module and whether there are opportunities for additional hands-on training or mentorship programs. Understanding the depth of knowledge provided and the availability of ongoing support will be crucial for franchisees to effectively train their staff and provide quality grooming services.
