Great tip with the ears at 8:10. I have seen a couple of your videos now. I like the small descriptions of what you do. And you are so sweet to the dogs - and calm :)
I love your video and style. I appreciate that you don’t criticize the dog owners or complain about the profession as I have seen on other channels. Great positive video!
I am just now learning to properly groom my little bichonpoo. You have helped a great deal! Great video. Much better than the others I have found. You have a wonderful soothing voice.
Exactly! White dog with a white background is hard to see. If it were me, I'd paint that room some color no dog could naturally be. Like purple or orange or yellow (bright yellow, banana yellow, etc.)
Nice job must say. Im a novice in the grooming job so i would like to see more of your grooming videos on different breeds of dogs. And do you style cats hairs and furs too? Thank you
Hi I have a Lhasa apso x poodle I’m just starting out to groom him myself would you please be able to do a full groom on one that would help me,I really want to know the sections of the dog if you kno wat I mean and wat to use for each section eg body head neck etc.....wat size scissors and blending shears are best to use.....thankyou so much......
Great job and don't worry you didn't ramble on too much. I have a black Morkie and this is how I try to get them to shape her face. Sometimes they get it right and sometimes they don't
I’m a retired cosmetologist with a (now) 1yr old Maltese. Your videos really helped me. The hardest part has been dealing with the “puppy” issues but things are getting better. Any chance you can help with hair in the ear canal?
This was such a great tutorial! I know this video is pretty old but maybe you’re still around to answer my question or point me to a video that answers it. I’m an at home groomer just doing my dog so sorry if this is common knowledge. When you’re setting the length and shape for the sides of the head and muzzle, do you cut it with the hair laying down or sticking out? If you cut it while it’s laying down like normal, you end up with longer layers at the top of the head and getting shorter as you go down. And if you cut it while it’s all sticking out, you’d end up with the hair being the same-ish length for the most part all over. I hope I was able to explain it in a way that it makes sense. P.S. This is for a doodle with somewhere between a wavy and curly coat.
Hi, I get my shears from either grooming shows, grooming supply stores and Amazon. Here is a link to my Amazon store, I have a list of the scissors that I use and recommend www.amazon.com/shop/loveofgrooming?ref=exp_inf_sh_mb_own_loveofgrooming_cp
Hi! Thank You! Check out my Channel, I have many videos, some are on the whole dog including legs. I will be making on on just legs very soon. ua-cam.com/users/LoveofGrooming
Hi, I groomed Bichon Frise’s for about 30 years, show and pet, also taught people to groom. You have a good basic knowledge of the breed’s head, but I have a couple of tips if you are interested. 1) the feathering you must do with thinning shears would not be necessary if you didn’t bounce your scissor hand up and down as you cut. Keep a sliding motion instead of coming and going at the coat with the scissors in the cutting hand. 2) the pet owner may prefer the look you give him but a bichon’s ears should actually be part of the head and should be trimmed as part of the circle. Not as you have there - poodle ears on a bichon head. Balance is achieved by having the top of the head the same length as the beard, then go around making the circle and including the ears. I hope I have not offended you and have explained myself in terms you understand. It is so much easier to show someone than it is to write the description. Cheers.
Oh, I know, lol, this is not a Bichon. Its a Poodle cross maltese. Most pet Bichon owners want long ears so I can't do the proper head on them. Its not my dog so I do what they want. I wish I had Bichons that wanted a proper head. I am comfortable with the holding my shears like this and do use as you mentioned and have different techniques, thanks. No offence taken.
I thought it was a Maltese poodle. I have one, and he looks just like that, but you may be right. She refers to the dog as a “mixed breed”. It sounds like it’s a mutt! Lol!
My dog consistently pokes her tongue out when I'm doing around her mouth. I put my finger in front of her nose and hold her mouth shut but she can somehow still get the tip out. Do you have any suggestions?
It can be challenging when they keep sticking out their tongue. Keep holding her mouth shut when doing her face. You should be able to feel when she will stick her tongue out while holding her nose. Give praise when she does not stick her tongue out. Make sure you are relaxed and have no distractions but sometimes unfortunately they may always stick out their tongue.
Great video! Trying to learn how to trim my daughter’s 5 month old Maltese. He’s a good boy. Like the tips about in front of the ears. Our guy is very clipper averse, but does really well with scissors. Would love to see a video of how to scissor cut the body. Want to keep hair medium length.... not shaved. Lol and I understand “silly talk” also could u recommend an economical beginner scissor set?
Hi, the brand of scissors that I am using only has a chinese name on them and I cant read Chinese. I picked them up at a grooming seminar, sorry I cant help you. I do use Kenchi and Geib often
You can get curved shears from a Grooming Supply place or a dog show. Search online. I usually pick mine up from either a grooming seminar or a dog show or my local Dog Grooming Supply Store
I do like your videos very much thank you for them. If I can make a suggestion when clipping a light dog it may be best to put a dark background so the view is can see better and even as you're cutting you would be able to judge better. I trim my toy poodle who is black and white and I have to put a background behind area that I'm cutting as in putting a light background where his black top knot is and so on. Again thank you for your videos.
You are wonderful! What a great job! Your speaking is perfect, and WITHOUT background music. I have hearing loss and just watched 2 videos with background music, which made it difficult to hear. I wish you could cut MY dog! 👍💜Do you have videos cutting the body of the dog? Thanks, thanks!!
+miss dailey Thank you! Glad you enjoyed my video. Go to my channel and search through videos, there are some on Clipping the body. There are more videos to come. Thanks for watching!
I take my Bichon to one of those pet stores for grooming and they can’t never get her round head correct. I’ve tried several places already. So disappointed 😞
You have very good videos if I may suggest though when doing a white dog so the view is can see better put the white dog in front of a dark background.
If that's a Bichon, the ears must be part of the round head. No Poodle hanging ears. That should be a Class 5 felony, and give you a term of imprisonment of not less than one year and a fine of $2,500.
Hope your joking. It is a bichon and it's a pet and they can have any style that they want unless they are showing the dog but I can tell you don't know that and you must be fined $5,000
Great tip with the ears at 8:10. I have seen a couple of your videos now. I like the small descriptions of what you do. And you are so sweet to the dogs - and calm :)
Great teaching, and I like how you're so very sweet to the dog.
I love your video and style. I appreciate that you don’t criticize the dog owners or complain about the profession as I have seen on other channels. Great positive video!

I am just now learning to properly groom my little bichonpoo. You have helped a great deal! Great video. Much better than the others I have found. You have a wonderful soothing voice.
Great video to learn from. Most grooming videos are boring with too much talking. This one helped me a lot!
What a great job you have done, and such a pleasent good boi. He's standing very still for you cause he knows how spiffy you're making him look.
Great tutorial! Thank you so much, very helpful.

Exactly! White dog with a white background is hard to see. If it were me, I'd paint that room some color no dog could naturally be. Like purple or orange or yellow (bright yellow, banana yellow, etc.)

I have two Bolognese to groom tomorrow one breed hadn't heard of. I like a challenge.
Nice job must say. Im a novice in the grooming job so i would like to see more of your grooming videos on different breeds of dogs. And do you style cats hairs and furs too? Thank you
Good job, but white on white is hard...anyway to paint that wall behind the dog? Even a soft grey would help
It's a soft green. I may try using a back drop next time. Painting is time consuming. If I paint it grey then the grey dogs won't show up, 😁
how about the ears?
Hi I have a Lhasa apso x poodle I’m just starting out to groom him myself would you please be able to do a full groom on one that would help me,I really want to know the sections of the dog if you kno wat I mean and wat to use for each section eg body head neck etc.....wat size scissors and blending shears are best to use.....thankyou so much......

What's the difference between a round face and an teddy face ?
+Coleen Williams Teddy bear usually has short ears .
I take my Bichon to one of those pet stores for grooming and they can’t never get her round head correct. I’ve tried several places already. So disappointed 😞
You have very good videos if I may suggest though when doing a white dog so the view is can see better put the white dog in front of a dark background.
A little scary there when you pointed the curved shears towards his eye.
*hehe*
