Mondo Cane by Antonio Rossi
The meeting with Iv San Bernard meant a leap in quality for Antonio Rossi who, desiring to spread the business philosophy that he himself has followed for years, decided to make his shop an official Iv San Bernard school.
In addition to its grooming service, Mondo Cane hosts a spa centre in which personalised beauty treatments (by reservation) are made.
Basic and specialised courses and seminars on a vast range of techniques and treatments are organised, which are fundamental to improving the skills of the trade, like the course for the correct use of instruments and products, seminars held by international champions and authorities in the grooming field. Specialised in Black Russian Terrier and Schnauzer, Mondo Cane offers an all-round training.
