Four Paws Groom School to Attend Crufts 2026

Four Paws Groom School is proud to announce that it will exhibit at Crufts from 5–8 March 2026 for its 15th year! We will be in hall 5 stand 210!

Each year Crufts, run by the Royal Kennel Club , attracts thousands of dog lovers, professionals, and businesses from across the UK and beyond. Because of this, the event offers an ideal opportunity to showcase professional dog grooming education and clear career routes.

Exhibiting Alongside iPET Network

Importantly, Four Paws Groom School will exhibit next to iPET Network throughout the event.

This shared space highlights the strong partnership between the grooming school and its awarding organisation, it shows a shared commitment to high-quality, industry-led education in dog grooming and animal care. Together, both organisations provide a clear and trusted route from training to qualification.

Practical Training for Real Grooming Careers

As a specialist dog grooming school, Four Paws Groom School focuses on hands-on, practical training. From the start, each course prepares learners for real salon work.

In addition, training centres on:

• Current industry standards
• Strong animal welfare practices
• Practical skills for confident grooming

As learners develop, they build both skill and confidence.

A Clear Link Between Training and Qualifications

Fern Gresty and Sarah Mackay own Four Paws Groom School and iPET Network.

Because they lead both organisations, training and qualification design work closely together. As a result, learners follow programmes that balance quality education with real salon experience. At the same time, this approach keeps training practical, relevant, and closely aligned with industry needs.
