Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024
This Unit is applicable to those working in the companion animal industry sector where specialist dog grooming services are provided. In addition to legal and ethical responsibilities, all Units of Competency in ACM10 Animal Care and Management Training Package have the requirements for animals to be handled gently and calmly. The individual is required to exhibit appropriate care for animals so that stress and discomfort is minimised.
This Unit of Competency covers the process of preparing and styling dogs using creative styling trends rather than show or breed standards. The Unit covers grooming, colouring, clipping and decorating dogs using a range of products and techniques as well as the selection and application of accessories that are not harmful to animals, allow normal dog movement and don’t impede vision or free movement of legs, tail or ears.
