Emma Harding: Dog Grooming Technical Trainer

Emma joined Merrist Wood in March 2024 as a Dog Grooming Technical Trainer. Providing assistance to the students during the Merrist Wood Beginners course and Level 2 City and Guilds Dog Grooming Assistant course. She has been in the dog grooming industry for 25 years and enjoys sharing my knowledge and skills to students starting their new chosen career path.

Emma has been in the show ring with my own golden retrievers, many of which have gained high placings, stud book numbers and qualifications for Crufts. She continues preparing show golden retrievers for the show ring, which is a great passion of hers.
