Grooming
Brush and comb set

Microfibre Towels - I use larger beach towels, much more practicable
Grooming table - Collasable for easy storage, make your life easier, investing in a good table with a H bar will make it easier to groom your dog.
Mixing bottles - these are excellent and makes the shampoo last longer.
Shampoo - I recommend Earth bath for puppies
Wahl Dirty Beastie Shampoo - for older dogs this shampoo is excellent and the one I use.
Andis Clippers - These are good enough for small salon, I have these as my back up but I prefer the Heinigers
Heiniger Clippers - These are wire free and what I use
Comb set for Clippers
Training
Pressure alarmed door mat - handy tool to know when your pup is waiting to go out.
Door Bell training - Wireless dog door bell
Play Pen - not essential but easy to put together and handy to have around when needed this is 8 panels and 80cm high, you do not want the 60cm high one as they will jump this quite quickly.
