why wouldn't you want to use a 5 blade in the back like you mentioned? isn't a 5 blade even more safe than a 10 blade bc it's not cutting as short? thanks in advance for your help!
@@ysteren No never use a 5 blade under the eyes..it is a skip tooth blade,and a high risk of catching skin..also would not take it short enough as a 10 blade would..10 blade is the safest of all the blades..We appreciate your comment..thank you so much for watching us..Hope this helped..
@@GroomingByRudy thanks so much for your reply! I was referring to when you mention it at minute 5:37, in reference to her private area. And andis makes a 5FC blade which is not skip tooth. So is that what you were referring to when making your comment - avoiding the skip tooth ? Hope that makes sense!
@@ysteren oh yes ! especially not in private areas, although safer than a regular 5F, it can still catch skin so 10 blade only is the way to go for the private areas 😊
Thanks for sharing! I'm not a groomer but, I've been grooming my Maltese puppy (6 months old). Right now all I have is a 10 blade and a couple attachments for a longer cut. Last week I used the 10 blade on her bum and now she looks like a baboon butt. I probably took off a little more on the side than I should have but I think she will forgive me.😅 I'll get better after I have more practice I think.
So when you hear of dogs getting cut at the groomers, are there ever blade injuries or are these just from scissors? I'd love to buy one of those clippers for the in between groom but afraid I will cut my dogs. (Lila, 10 year old Maltese and Wookie almost 2 year old Havanese)
Oh... Never spray the aerosol flammable spray chemical on the blade while clipper is on! It says that on the can. The pump stray is ok though. Thanks for the video! You handle Lola so gently!! 😊
Isn't Lola just beautiful? I love how you treat the dogs with respect, they do have feelings 🥰 Another wonderful tutorial. Thanks again Rudy and Lola, amazing! 👌
Great video!!! After 50+ years of dog ownership, dog rescue and fostering, and all that dog health maintenance, I always learn new things from Rudy with each video. Clipping paw pad areas, sanitary clips, ears, and snout and eyes are an important skill that Rudy teaches. PLEASE keep these videos coming!

Hi. Im becoming a new groomer and my main fear is cutting a dog. My question is how often does this happen and how do i handle the situation. Any tips and advice would be great.??
Thank you so much for your important question..The fact that your concern in accidentally cutting a dog, tells me that you are already a great groomer. It does happen from time to time, but not to often, again if you are concerned about it,like you are ..try to work slowly, dont allow people to rush you through a grooming, stay focused, especially when working sensitive areas eyes, ears, privates,armpits, mouth area..again work slow, always make sure your using correct blades,ect..I wish I could tell you the fear goes away ,but it doesn't. What does happen though is you become more practiced, and more confident, and that lessons the risk of cutting a dog dramatically, and doesn't happen much at all.If it happens, hopefully it is not a severe cut,or nick,you can usually treat it,and explain it to the clients, along with a sincere apology. Dont be afraid to refuse a service if you feel the dog is to excitable, aggressive, to matted,because that's when injuries usually happen..Take your time,it is a long learn as you go career..I'm still learning myself after 40 years..I wish you the best,try not to worry about it to much..we appreciate you..let us know your progress..
@@marthamackey6105 you can use the ceramic 10 just like the regular 10..you can clean the rust off with some clipper cool, and blade oil..We appreciate you watching us..
👏👏👏👏 for Lola! I can't follow along (unless I groom an imaginary dog, lol), but I can comment to boost the video. I love how she likes the way you handle her face. She IS a sweet girl!❤
Thank you Rudy❤. As grooming my golden doodle Hannah at home I really enjoy watching you. You are a great teacher😊. Thank you Lola you are a great student. Will see you next time❤️🙏❤️
Thanks again for another great video. I read all the comments and they are 100% spot. Keep teaching us and sharing all your grooming knowledge. Thanks Rudy, Anthony and Lola. She reminds me of my little Bichon, Harley, I had.
Very informative on the 10 blade. I have this blade but have not used it on my shih tzu, I’m abit intimidated. I’ve been watching your videos and have now built enough courage to do it. Thank you so much!
I just want to come back and tell you we’ve been grooming my shih tzu with the help of your videos. It has saved us so much, and my dog is one of the best looking and well-maintained in our community thanks to you making your knowledge free and readily available! I appreciate it so much.
Another question I have, I have been grooming my two mini schnauzers for two years now. Getting better, getting a tad quicker but my ten blade gets so hot so quickly, that I had to buy another to switch off and it seems like I only get (without looking at a watch) ten minutes, maybe less. I have Andis. One is ceramic and the other is metal. Supposedly ceramic stays cooler longer, but not mine. Is this normal to have the blade go hot that quick? And yes, I do use a toothbrush to brush out hairs after each use, including during sessions.
@@GroomingByRudy you and Anthony are the best!! I always look so forward to seeing what you put out there for all of us. You and Anthony are truly a blessing to the grooming industry, I thank you so much!!!!!
Don't forget to 'Like' the video to show Lola some love ! ❤

Thank you so Dorothy for always supporting us and being our friend..
I thought we were supposed to use a 30 blade for paw pads
You can, in this video we just wanted to demonstrate how versatile a 10 blade is, it can do the jobs of some other blades
