Hi! I’m a professional groomer, a great tip is not to be scared of the strait shears. What I like to do is use them to take off the bulk of the hair. The thinning shears are great of going back in and “erase” the blunt cut. Another thing about the shears be very careful, using them around her bum, under the belly, armpits, face and paw pads. The reason we use clippers around those areas isn’t because it’s easier it’s because it’s safer. There is a lot of thin skin and nipples that can get cut very easily! Also a great tip when your lifting feet and legs, don’t pull away from their body, keep their leg level with the body, it’s a lot more comfortable for them as they hold still more. Your dogs are so cute!!
Thank you for the tips, I really appreciate it :)
I am a beginner with grooming. Your video was encouraging and helpful. I shall be grooming my KC first time next week. You gave me courage.
Just remember when you're using thinning sheers, most of the hair that's been cut remains IN the hair... So when you brush the hair afterwards, the amount of hair that comes out is CRAZY!! So you're not just cutting what you see on the sheers, you're cutting much much more! 😘 Thank you so much for this video!! I really needed this and have been waiting for you to do one! I really like the way you guys treat your dogs. I agree with your parenting techniques and always trust you guys and all the help you give us Cavalier lovers!! God bless! 💗
BTW, my advice on the thinning sheers comes from my using them on myself, lol. I have SUPER thick hair and... I can relate, Herky. 🤪😘😘🐾💞
P.S. How old is Milton now?
*And great job* The girls look great! Especially Herky. Very natural but clean!
Kelly Ehrich good point 👏🏻 thank you 😊
Kelly Ehrich hi
@@celenaabdallah8427 Hi, Celena!! Are you a Cavalier owner?
Hi fam 👋🏻 thanks for watching today’s video! How do you think mom’s first grooming was?
I was with you until the tail trim....lol. That beautiful full tail is like gold on a Cavalier...lol.😍Other than that-👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Robyn Pruden hahahaha Robyn!! Her tail looks the exact same before and after don’t worry 😂
Herky The Cavalier well she is gorgeous no matter what regardless...lol😍
I think mom's first grooming was fantastic!! Yay mom!!! You were so brave to jump right in and I can't even imagine how much more comfortable they were with you instead of the groomers. Your babies looked beautiful & you did a wonderful job!! Thank you for sharing your first attempt & for giving thoughtful encouragement to others! ❤️
Kimmie Lew thank you so much!!!! 😭
I think you are so lovely. And you do a very good job. And the love you have for your babies shines through 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Last time I was in charge of cutting my pups hair I accidentally cut off a huge chunk of my own! Hubby usually does it, and he goes for an "economical cut" for Fudge as his grows so fast. Herky looks lovely
Deborah Flynn oops! Hahahaha
You have a wonderful relationship with your dogs! Also, I really appreciate seeing how you groomed Herky. I will try this with my Cav for the first time too!
Great video!! Thanks for sharing :)
Here’s a TIP someone shared with me for cutting out mats close to the skin - it works well!
1. Get a flash light (iPhone works well) to highlight the skin to make sure you don’t snip it by accident.
2. Angle the light so it shines through the fur and point slightly towards the dog’s body, you should see the skin light up bright red/pink.
3. Hold the light steady while you cut and only cut things that look completely white (the fur) - it helps to have one person hold the light while a second person can just focus on the cutting.
Hope this helps!
I've just bought a pair of thinning shears :) can't wait to get into our little CKC. Thanks for sharing! Great work Herky and Milton. So patient - such a beautiful breed.
Good for you learning to groom your dog! I have been hacking away at my American Cocker Spaniels for about 20+ years. My sweet friend who got me started in agility and obedience was so encouraging. I have never shown them in conformation so grooming has been a little less intimidating.
you just earned yourself a new subscriber! i’ve been looking to get a spaniel to train as a service dog and your videos are absolutely the best on youtube because i can 100% see your love for these little furballs
I love how the dog in the back is sleeping well shes giving the other dog a groom
I love how millton is just there chilling
Do you have a horse?
🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎
yes i do her name is mandy and shes a pony
@@Jillei YES ID SORRY I LOOK A LONG TIME TO REPLIY
Finally I found the grooming video 😂I just can’t take her to the groomers but want to try and make her look nicer
I have found that using a yoga pilates mat on the table works perfectly for the dog to stand on and it is easy to clean. My dog feels secure standing on it and it doesn't bunch up like the towel.
Loved this!! Gives me courage to trim up my cav now! Grooming can be so expensive so been thinking about doing this too 🐶💈✂️
hana anderson you can do it mama!
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!! Great job Mai!! The girls look gorgeous!!!
Catherine MacKenzie thanks Catherine!!!
Herky and Milton yous are so SO brave ! You’s go herky and Milton ! 😚😃🤗
This is really helpful Thank You 😊
Thank you so much for making this video! I have a cavalier that also hates going to the groomer. I will now try to groom/bathe her myself thanks to you!
Janet Anello so glad it could help you and your cav ❤️
She is so good!
I started cutting my two Cavi's hair over the last year and I half since I haven't found a groomer since my old groomer moved away. Since I already cut my husbands hair I figured I can do it. I thought your video was helpful and the thinning sheers are def. amazing haha I've been using my husbands on the dogs. I actually use a mini shaver for the bottom of their feet and its soooo much easy than scissors since I don't have to worry about cutting them at all. I still leave the grinch feet on top though because I love them. I also shaving their lower bellies with a bigger shaver with a #1 clip.
Thank you, for doing this, it nice because you a beginner, and give me hope!
Thank you - very helpful information. I liked the idea of holding up the back end with the harness. Herky and Milton are beautiful.
Thank you so much
I heard can cause internal damage having harness there!
Thank you for the video on grooming the Cavies. Herky looks exactly like my Cavalier, Anni, same texture and coat as Herky. I think I can do this, I have all the tools, just need confidence. My other Cavalier, Charlie, is Black and Tan, and like Milton is smaller. His coat is straight and very silky, and so very soft. He’s like a stuffed dog. I am going to groom them right now, thanks to your tips!
Thank you for this video. It helped a lot.
This is so helpful. I love your channel! I learn a lot of things about cavaliers and it definitely my decision in getting cavalier one day!
Do you let them air dry or do you use one of those professional dog blow dryers?
Love love LOVE this video!!
Rike Swalve ❤️❤️❤️
Oh perfect, I have to do it too this week. Hard to have an appointment due to the pandemic and the little one needs a trim. Thank you for your video!!!
Been waiting for this video!!! 😁 xx
YAY !! :D
You are SO brave! They look great!
I was holding my breath for one hour.
@@herkythecavalier I would have been too! haha
our groomer shut down due to Covid 19 and my cav was just due for a groom so I decided to try it myself, not perfect but at least some of that long hair is out of his way. this video was very helpful, thankyou!
Aww... Those sweet babies🥰
Thank you so much!!! The groomer I found wanted $65 which is understandable but due to financial reasons I just can’t swing that! I tried on my own and I agree as well with the thinning scissors! Made it so much easier and it’s really hard to mess up using these! My Otis just did not like the trim around his rectum! Was a fight and I was scared but I got it done!
I started grooming my Cavalier as a puppy. At that time he didn't like having his feet messed with either. I found getting a big beach towel and sitting on the floor with him helpful. He laid in a position comfortable for him and it was easier to access his feet. It was just a little more relaxiing. I don't know if groomers do this but I find that if the fur under his feet was a little damp it could be easier to cut and I would refine after they were dry. Last, I do use a clipper on him in a few small areas and I found the small ones that use batteries are nice. Being small they get into small areas. I still take him to the groomer 1 or 2 a year for a bath and fake trim. I want him to be familiar with it so he won't be as scared if I absolutely need to take him. Plus my groomer doesn't use crates except with dogs who have issues. She lets them play in a playing area but does provide soft bottom crates if your dog wants to just go nap. You did a great job ! The girls look beautiful.
Donna Garlitz thanks for the tip!!!
Mats are really common behind the ears. My dog has a super big one that's so close to her skin, I can't use tiny scissors or I'll cut her or myself. In the past, I tried using scissors and to protect her I had my fingers in between her skin and the knot of fur and went in with the other hand and cut myself. I was young and didn't know what I was doing, I could have thought it through but I was trying my best with what I had available at the time. Now I try to use the clippers but my girl freaks out and shakes her head, making it very difficult to take care of the mats behind her ears. I want to be a professional dog groomer one day and I really enjoyed this, thanks! ❤️
Mai you did sooo good - Herky is looking great! Just look at all the hair in that pile that can’t shed on you! Herky was a good sport even though she wasn’t happy - next time will be better! Great video / you are so fearless, and a super Cav Mom!
Hahaha thanks for the encouragement!!! I think this definitely makes me more brave!
So impressed!!
YAAAS!!
SO CUTE !!!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING
Thank you Ela Maria!
So happy you made this video!! Ordered he kit from amazon. Cannot wait to start grooming my cav girls at home instead of taking them to the groomers!
Well done Mia me and lady are so proud of you! You did well 🐾❤️ xoxo
Bex Mclean thank you so much Bex!!! You’re the best! ❤️
Herky The Cavalier no worries glad me and lady also the piggies could help 😂 not really sure how much they 3 were helping right enough lol 😂 lady was asleep so was Olaf and Obi well being Obi was watching all the time as he is very nosy 😂 fab job once again and I hope Milton is ok xoxoxo
Thank you so much for the video. I have been too scared to give my beautiful cavvy g a haircut but like you say. You can do it so I am going to give it a try. Well done you 😁
Thank you so much🥰
I do all of my dogs grooming and have done some trimming of the fur, but am not confident enough to do the sani-cut around the butt area. When my previous dog was very sick, we opted to get it done at either Petco or Petsmart (can’t remember which). It only cost about $7.00 for just having that part trimmed and we were able to stay right there with her so she wouldn’t get scared. It worked out great. Thanks for your video. You did a great job. 👍🏻 🐶
Duchess710 thank you! I did not know you can just get the private area groomed! Good option :)
Great job! We have a cavi/corgi mix. We say our Brady is a cross between Farrah Fawcett and Fabio. His hair is beautiful. We have recently started grooming him ourselves. The use of thinning shears is the best idea we have seen so far. We are going to do that next time so that the cut is more natural. Thanks for all the ideas. Love your channel.
I agree! The use of thinning shears is brilliant!! I'm glad we saw this before summer. 😁
I found out thinning shears work great on knots. Clip long ways of the Knott works better.
I use aa Pilates Exercise Mat on the table for grooming. It works great. It keeps my dog from sliding on the table and it is easy to clean, roll up, and store away. You can get them at an inexpensive price at TJMAXX or Marshalls.
Thank you soooo much for posting this! I've been looking for a video or instructions on how to deal with the cavalier pants at home for such a long time and this is the best one I've found so far, it looks so natural. Thanks for the tip on the thinning shears, I'll be ordering some today.
4:58 Herky: mommm stahp ugh
Milton: zzzzzzz
GREAT JOB!!!! You did so well and for your first time We groom at home as well but learned a few tips - thank you!!! Are you able to share or link the videos that you speak about from your groomer friend??
I NEED to get a pair of thinning shears for my cavalier! I have a male so I usually keep his belly feathers cut pretty short to keep it clean of pee. I also attempted to cut some of his side belly feathers (they drag the grass and get wet in the morning) with blunt scissors and now he looks like he has a bad bowl cut 🙈 anyway, at least it’ll grow back. I also like to cut about an inch or two of tail feathers from the base of the tail to keep it poop free. Seems to help!
After you cut with blunt scissors, follow up with thinning shears and you can blend it in pretty well so it doesn't look like a harsh square cut any more. Comb it out as you go because only some of the cut hair stays on the thinning shears. The rest stays caught up in the hair and can be removed with the comb. So alternate between thinning and combing as you go. I think you'll like the results.
Good job Mom! I know here in PA they have dog groomers that have their own vans that will come right to your house to groom your dog! Maybe that will help keep them more relaxed being at home than in a salon. We’ve never needed a groomer for Kane since they never need haircuts but we’ve been looking into a few for Catherine! I’m sure there should be some in LA!
Good to know!!
You did sooo good Mai!!!
Those thinning sheers work great. I like a close trim on the private area and paw pads. The girls will get more comfortable each time you groom. I can't buzz clip at all 😑that scares me and my dogs know it so I don't even try anymore😅
Thank you for showing us your skills.
Pookey Puppy omg the buzz clipper really freaked me out too. And the girls! They don’t like it!!😂
Good result,the dog is very beautiful 😊
Happy dog Petko thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I also cut my pom's furry paws by myself since there is always dry muds and other gross things stuck in it.
You did such a good job for your first full trim ❤👏👍
I have a tip for you if Herky n Milton hate going to groomers, just like my dog, I usually call the groomer and they groom my pup at home, so I can stay close to him to prevent anxiousness and reduce stress. But I only call the groomer when his coat got so long which is about once every 3 months, and I told them to only trim the edges, since I hate those haircuts that looked unnatural like the teddy bear style ( my dog is a Pomeranian btw ) that is why I don't call the groomer that often.☺
Good tip, thank you!
Hello! Love your videos! I have spent so much for groomers, never am I happy! I ask for certain things never get it. So I'm going to watch you HELP!
CINDY
I watched this while cutting my baby cavy girls hair. I don’t have shears but it moreso helped me to go ahead and try
I just found you and I love your King Charles cavaliers.... and your content is amazing and just subscribed and turn on the bell lol and I have two cavaliers there a blehmin and a black an tan used to have a tri but she no longer with us I also used to have little cavaliers i even have delivered cavaliers from our female cavalier but we no longer breed but in my fence they our my fave and I love them.. your cavaliers seem so sweet and cute..
shy-shy Amour welcome to our family ❤️❤️❤️
For those bad knots I use a sewing tool, a seam ripper works great to break up the knots .
Such a helpful video! Thank you!
Can you tell me what brand of thinning shears you recommend? Also what size do you have of the de shedding brush ?
Oh my god, so cute!
PIANO HANDS ❤️❤️❤️
Very helpful is that in your house love your vids ❤️❤️
No it's not our house! It's our workplace!
Thanks for sharing this. When I get my dog, I will definitely do as much at home grooming as possible. This way I have some idea of what grooming products to purchase.
Native-Kitty amazing 👏🏻 glad this can help!
Hi, I really enjoyed the helpful video, thank you. Please tell me what kind/brand of thinning and regular shears did you use. Thanks!
The next time you want to cut those cheek mustaches down, try using that clipper again but make sure you are clipping in the same direction as his cheek hair is growing. I adjust the clipper height to medium or high before I start - that way you know you won't be cutting too closely. Even then, use a light touch and don't press down too much on the clipper. You have to go slowly and talk to them sweetly as you trim. If they move abruptly, you run the risk of gapping up the side of their faces, so you have to be extra cautious in keeping them still. The sweeter and more reassuring you talk to them, the easier it will be. The end product is absolutely beautiful though.
I use clippers with a guard to keep some length. I have horses though so well practised with the clippers 😛
Thanks for the tip! Do you use the clipper on cavaliers?
Those eyes!! such a cutie xx
Good job!!!😘😘😘
Thank you!
Thank you for this video, I don't know anyone that has a cavalier so this video was very helpful! For me, Burgundy's butt hair gets so long supper quick and I have taken her to the groomers and I'm not a fan how they cut it. I'm going to try to cut her hair myself when her butt hair grows back hahaha! ❤️❤️
Do it Vanessa! If I can do it, you can too! Get the thinning shears. Or even that whole grooming kit. So great!!
I think you did great for a first groom 😀 they looked so beautiful! Groomers do put the dogs in crates after grooming them as it's safer for them as there are other dogs to groom and if the other dog was aggressive it could end in a fight or something.
Of course it's safer that way, the girls just get anxious! haha
@@herkythecavalier yeah I get what you mean 😁 my old Dog Lacey was nervous of the vet so we ended up doing her myself 😍
Lucius Maximus I don’t but do that but i only Work one on one with the dogs so they don’t get stressed out when they are here. the only other animals that are in my salon are my ex show guinea pigs and lady I only ever use the crate if have a cross over in clients even then they are only in there for 5 mins max. I like the fact my doggie pals run in to see me when they get groomed ❤️ I love it so much some of them are nervous but they come round. The easiest way to get your dog used to the groomers is after all there puppy vaccines so around 11-12 weeks of age. This way the pup is young enough the noise doesn’t bother the it it doesn’t matter what breed or how much hair they have on them it’s just to get them used to their surroundings and noises as it can be quite scary. Aged 6 months onwards it can be quite difficult to train them to stand and sit nicely on the table so it can actually make them scared of the groomers. If you are thinking of going to a groomers start young, if like herky and Milton you want to groom them yourself that’s also fine cavs in my opinion are the best breed to groom as they are so calm. Other dogs aren’t lol some days it’s like a work out dodging being bitten. I was combing out a tail to a client no knots he just doesn’t like his tail being touched and he turned round and bit my nose 😱 I had to muzzled him for my safety. So yea herky and Milton are very well behaved this particular are dog I have got from over groomers I didn’t train them 😊
@@BexMclean97 yeah at a groomer I volunteer at we make sure the dogs are not crated unless they are aggressive they have daycare dogs who play with everyone and everything he only time they go into crates is when they can't be supervised (when a client comes in) I don't have a cab but I have a beagle who goes to the groomers to play with the daycare dogs and a Labrador who is going there soon for a groom. 😁
Lucius Maximus awww cute my mom has a lab lol she is 12 and still hyper she give lady how is 15 months old now a run for her money ❤️ are you enjoying volunteering at the groomers?
Hi! Love the video! Just looking for advice, I’ve been really looking into getting an emotional support pet because I’m a college student and my housing doesn’t allow animals and would love to get a cavalier but am afraid of what others will think because they’ll know why I have a pet. I also will have to be living with roommates and am worried they’ll get really annoyed. Do you think I should go for it or wait until I graduate? Love you!
No judging. LOL. I have groomed/clipped my Standard Poodles for many years-last of 6 is a healthy 13 YO. Have an almost 5 YO tri Cav with heavy coat and very long feathers. I do use thinning shears to reduce her feet and leg feathers in the Winter. I also give her a sanitary clip. I have a mild allergy to her but now hives with it too so am considering clipping her shorter in order to deal with dander easier and bathe her more often. I’ve been checking out Cav grooming videos and find yours kind and reasonable. Since it will be a good long while until we travel, may try a clip and thin. She’s very patient for combing and brushing and doesn’t even mind being on the grooming table for her tummy clip so other than preferring a wash and dry dog (after years of clipping and scissoring)it may be worth it.
Hi ! I love your channel just a tip tho the thing you used to clip Herky in you put in more at the front and the black bit goes in too ! X
Thank you for this video! I have decided to groom mine at home. Do you still groom them at home?
I discovered thinning shears last year! Goodness I love them, I wish I had discovered them years ago when I had a golden retriever! They would be fantastic for keeping a goldens butt floof under control. I use them with my britany to keep his butt floof in check but also to keep his massive ear floof under control. He gets matts behind his ears and keeping it thinned back there goes a long way in preventing matts. If you have a long haired dog I cant reccommend thinning shesrs enough! Do be careful because they are wicked sharp.
Nice video, your dogs are so cute! c;
Thank you!!!
Anyone know where she got the harness she used to hold the pup up. I have groomed my dogs for 15 years and have a professional sheers and table however I have been unable to find a good harness that keeps then stating up. There is a product out there called the dogupstand but its too expensive for me at the moment. Where could I find this black and red harness? Thanks.
Hi i just got a cav puppy and he doesnt like to drop his toy 🧸 and will growls at me when try to take it away is it normal? Im worry he is very cute and nice with children and people in general.
For the pads, it's easier/quicker and safer just to use a 10 blade. I know it seems super scary to use a clippers on the feet, but it's not bad. Also, for the sanitary uses the 10 blade around the butt and then use a guard for the butt cheek hair and bland it in. Other than that, great first groom!
can you also do a video about bathing them? how often do you groom them?
Yes we can do a bathing video. This is the first time I ever groom them! Before that, Herky got one haircut in her life!
gorgeous dogs. i have 3 and i groom my own as well. too much stress for them to go to groomer.
lorraine weikel well done! So much better for them!!
I forgot to add you need to cut the area under her tail short and her private area too.
What are you using to hold the dog up?
Wow.. looks like herky just lost 5 pounds after that grooming😊 she looks really good....
Sarah Weise oooh this makes me happy! Thank you!
please tell me how you get all the sand out of them post beach visit, do you wash them after beach visit and get it out that way or is there a better trick? what is your post beach day routine for grooming?
Cuz wardo after the beach, they sun dry and all the sand falls right off. They look SUPER DUPER CLEAN! We rinse them with water at home to get rid of salt and to make them less itchy but that’s it!
I have groomed my 14 1/2 yr old dog Little Diva since we got her & now that I need her groomed I can't find a groomer that dose as good of a job as I do so the more you do them the better they will look they look good for your first time
Aww Herky. I know you hate being groomed but isn't it better getting groomed by your mom? And you look fabulous!!
Thank you!!!!
How do you guys feel about English toy spaniels though?
Is it possible to fly in the cabin with such dogs?
hey if i have a job where i work maybe ones a week an eight hour shift and then 6 days a week 4-5 hour shifts. is that too long to be away from a pup? i’m single and looking for a cute puppy to be my best friend lol. outside of work i have nothing but time to dedicate to a doggy
😊
I like the shape of their snouts, why are some cavaliers rounder than others? Almost like their more pug than a spaniel.
my lil cavalier girl grows wolverine like cheek hairs, they're long and funny haha I get groomers to clip it off....I haven't seen many cavs with those cheek hairs so long :)
Cuz wardo hahaha I can definitely picture it! I think I’ve seen some Instagram cavs with long face hair!
I got Cavalier pup and I would like to do my own thing.
i trim my malteses paw pad hair in between groomer visit and i found that it as a lot easier to use an electric shaver then scissors because I don't see as big of a risk with the electrical sasr cutting the pad then if i accidently snip their pad on accident, and its a little quicker i find so that good for them and me because they get squirmy when I try to cut their hair on inbetween their paw pads
Good to know, thank you!
@@herkythecavalier no problem! And thank you for the tip on the thinning scissors. I never thought about using those on their butts so that way it's not such a blunt cut
Kimberly Field it gives it a more natural look you could go in with clippers or a comb attachment but once the dog is clipped it totally changed the coat especially on cavs every time some one asks me to shave it bold I’m screaming inside lol 😂 unless it’s solid matted then it has to come of for the dogs welfare and you get a fair few I have taken the dogs coat off all in one and you could see where exactly the coat had been on their body 😭 sometimes u need to have a strong stomach and a lot of patience for this job lol. So it’s lovely to see people like Mia and others in the community taking such great care of there dogs coats. I just love the fact that I can free a dog from pain you know yes it is bald at the end of it but the coat isn’t hurting it anymore. When a dog is matted it feels like someone is pinching your skin so tightly all over the body. So it’s great to see them running around like a spring lamb at the end and the thanks you get off the dog means everything. The owners sometimes not so much lol 😂
oh ok just saw that Herky does have that sorta cheek beard too hahahah
Cuz wardo she does! Hahaha
When you brush any dog. You won’t catch all the matts jus by brushing. You have to use a comb too because hair can be matted at the roots right next to the skin.
😀
Salut !!
Est-ce que pour le toilettage d'un cavalier King Charles Spaniel on a besoin d'une tondeuse ?
I didn't use a clipper on my cavaliers, and I don't think they should be shaved.
@@herkythecavalier
Okay thanks you so so so so so much 😘😉😊
I'm getting a king Charles spaniel puppy in September
I hate the neck strap. What if the dog jumps off, will it snap or will the dog hang itself. I like butt, seems safe.
