My doodle is 8 and I've given her every cut. Which means I've watched a LOT of doodle grooming videos and I think this just might be the best one I've seen. Thanks!
There is so much to learn from this video. This is an intensive instructive video that explains not only the anatomy of the dog… the how’s and why’s to achieve a well groomed dog! The grooming on this dog is impressive! It is very difficult to find a groomer this good! I have 2 Standard golden doodles and 1 mini. When I read other comments that say they wish they had a groomer this good, I can only agree!
This is absolutely the best doodle grooming video that I have seen. I love how you explain to be careful of their joints and why for us that are trying to groom our dogs ourselves. I have a Giant Schnoodle and I have been working with her everyday so she will be good during grooming. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us.
Imagining what the dog is feeling and doing things to communicate what you are about to do, and keeping in mind their comfort and joints and balance while doing it-- seriously spot on!! So many groomers aren't paying attention when I dog is trying to express that it's uncomfortable, or misunderstand it as the dog just "being bad". Not that they can't be stubborn, but our approach and attention to their comfort builds their confidence and trust. Coming in too quick, overextending, and not minding to what the dog is feeling or thinking are some of the most common reasons groomers struggle! I cannot say enough how much I appreciate these teachings! I wish every groomer could see these!
You make this look easy! I have watched this multiple times, and really love all all the useful tips/tricks you have shared. Would love to see more videos similar to this one with Helen, thanks for sharing!
I want to Thank you for this video. You are very talented and obviously very in tune with us Doodle owners! Which is such a breath of fresh air! I appreciate your attention to detail and your very caring nature. Keep up the good work! And what a good girl Molly is!!
Best video I've seen. I am thrilled I found you and this video. I've been doing a lot of you-tubing hoping to learn grooming WITHOUT a total shave down and groomers complaining about matted dogs. Thank you more than you know.
Wow! You are amazing, she looks great, I love this cut. I have a poogle, beagle mini poodle mix,and am having the hardest time finding how to groom him. Learned a lot here. I’ve watch many many many videos.
I could not breathe at 33:45 when Molly turned around because that dog was barking. “Excuse me, I’m trying to make a video with my groomer, can you shut up please.”😂
I love everything you are saying! You pointed out some important things I think most groomers don’t pay attention to. What type of clippers & blades are you using?
This is a great video! I want clarification on the lengths used in the video. What guard comb set are you using? I know different guard comb sets vary. It starts at a 2comb, then you go down to a 4comb in areas which I'm assuming would be (1/4")? Then when you go in reverse you switch to a #1comb (1/2"). Which if you're going in reverse would be equivalent to the #4comb(1/4"). Wouldn't the #0comb reverse be equal to the #2comb with? I've always been taught when going in reverse to go 2 steps up in length. For example a #0 in reverse equals a #2. And a #1 in reverse equals a #4comb.
This is the same clarification that I was looking for as well. Also, if going in reverse with a #1 is the same as going forward with a #4, why not just use the #4 and not bother going in reverse? What is the purpose of going in reverse if you have the correct blade guard on hand? Especially since going in reverse can cause razor bumps or issues with the way the hair grows out in the future?
I love your video I love all the details and how you describe exactly what you are doing, But I think this is still a bit advanced for me at the moment lol. I hope one day I get really good at using my sizers. Beautiful job thank you for this video. ❤❤❤❤
I love how respectful you are to the dog and how you show the handling of them. I am learning a lot and practicing my grooming skills on my own doodle and Iv noticed a lot of these groomers on UA-cam are really “grabby.” They are pulling their legs and yelling at them and I’m thinking “ I hope my past groomers didn’t do all that to my poor sensitive goldendoddle! He’s such a nice dog and is really great with me, it’s like he wants to please me. Thanks for all the info! Is there a certain brand of rake you would recommend for a doodle?
I am planning to purchase new cordless clippers for my Doodle. I currently am using andis products. Do you have any experience with Andis portable clippers. What brand of clipper are you using in this video? I want to thank you for your detailed instructions, your voice is pleasant to listen to and you are very gentle with the dog.
I have a Bernedoodle and she is curly now. Do you have any videos on how to groom. Also id love to find someone in my area with your talent. What questions do i ask to find someone with your skill level
Yeah, I paused the video and went to comments just to see if anyone have noticed the girl yelling at the background. It's kinda disturbing actually.. I. Wish someone could tell us why she yelled like a lunatic
Your instruction was incredibly good! Thank you for the carefully detailed explanations you gave. BUT…who was that lunatic woman in the background screaming “shut up” at the dogs that were barking? Holy shit! That was very distressing to listen to during your instruction.
Может быть вы и классная грумер но мне собаку жалко вы отлично все рассказываете но продолжайте стрич а то нужно слушать и вы ещё прерывание свою работу да и собака устает извините
LOVE your scissoring technique.. Jw why you are wearing a face diaper, while interacting with a canine? Cloth or any other masking will not inhibit or protect one against bacterial or viral particles. It would be great to view your tips & grooming techniques-with clear speech. Loose the mask.

I so agree!! I was just going to comment. She explains why and how along with techniques that help. Amazing video!!
I am so impressed so your technique but I am more impressed with molly. What a well behaved dog!

This is an actual explanation of the geometrical side of grooming. I hope you’re a teacher! You’re amazing at grooming and instruction 😊

do you usually imagine things like this? also whats the point?
It’s a joke lol. If you go back and watch the other dog barks and Molly turns around. Take a chill pill dude.
You are fun and fascinating to watch and listen to. So much great information. thank you!!
One of the best ive ever seen. Thank-you for such great detail
You are the best teacher !!! Thanks for the video.
This is by far the best video! Can you please share which blade and attachments you used?
I love everything you are saying! You pointed out some important things I think most groomers don’t pay attention to.
What type of clippers & blades are you using?
The clippers look like the Wahl KM cordless 2 speed (3k and 3700)
That was SUCH a great and detailed explanation of each step! Love it! Great job!
What a great pup and so incredibly informative! Exceptional video, I can't tell you how many "professional" doodle grooming videos make me cringe!
An amazing tutorial! so much information...thank you!

I learn from these videos ! If I need to I research ! You’re awesome!
Good video helen! Very informative!
I’m very impressed! What a beautiful dog and tutorial. The last groomer I had cut off my Violets beautiful eyelashes😢
This was filled with a crazy amount of useful information

This dog is groomed on a regular basis, which is why it behaves.
Learned a lot from this, I need more practice, I groom my own doodles and I’m never happy with my results, saved this video for next groom!!😊
Excellent instructions
That is one patient molly..i hope she got a basket of her favorite treats.
Can you tell me what combs and blades you're using? They look like they're wider than normal combs/blades.
Yeah wide blades and combs r a thing what im wondering is what wirless is she doin that she can do a whole doodle with
I am planning to purchase new cordless clippers for my Doodle. I currently am using andis products. Do you have any experience with Andis portable clippers. What brand of clipper are you using in this video? I want to thank you for your detailed instructions, your voice is pleasant to listen to and you are very gentle with the dog.
May I ask what clippers you were using thank you
I have a Bernedoodle and she is curly now. Do you have any videos on how to groom. Also id love to find someone in my area with your talent. What questions do i ask to find someone with your skill level
Awesome instructions! Thank you so much!
Thank you for this helpful video!
Very professional, thank you!
Great tutorial!♥️♥️♥️
I know this is kind of an invasive question but how much do you charge to groom doodles. cuz you spent a lot of time on that dog.
What size blade and Guard are you using on the body when you first started out on this video? Thank you!
Thank you Helen! 😛 Great Video!
What clipper are you using?
Thanks for making this video with so many details. Gracias 😊
Should all matt’s be removed before the bath so the skin will be cleaned under the matted area?
Wow! Excellent tutorial!
What clippers do you use for longer haired dogs?
You are a true teacher 😍
What brand is your shaver/clipper? I have a shaver but it quickly clogs with her fine hair.
Omg!!! Those lashes 😍🥰😍
Why was that girl yelling so much in the background?
So cool to watch! Sounds like the daycare dogs that day were wanting to be in the video too XD
so is it a 2 comb on a ten blade or 30 blade
Always use 30 there isnt much of a difference but a 30 will give u a closer cut is a shorter blad more accurate to the comb
Hi! Do you have a T blade on your shears?
Top 🔝 video! Thank you so much 😊
WHAT CLIPPER IS THIS A WIRELESS THAT CAN DO A WHOLE DOODLE OMFG
Thank you, you are really good!
Who is yelling in the back ground at the dogs.. very distracting from the video!
Yeah, I paused the video and went to comments just to see if anyone have noticed the girl yelling at the background. It's kinda disturbing actually.. I. Wish someone could tell us why she yelled like a lunatic
Thank you great video!!
Very informative but between the clipper noise and you wearing a mask, I couldn’t always hear what number blade you were using?
🙄🙄🙄
My dog doesn't want to stand while I clip.she lays down the whole time.
Great tutorial, super well behaved dog
Nice groom
she's gorgeous
You are a great groomer. You know what you are doing. But if this my doodle I would be so upset with the length
People just say doodle now..no need to say what type of doodle - I even had someone said they had a minature doodle.. it was a cockapoo.
All doodles r doodles they all suck lmao
Your instruction was incredibly good! Thank you for the carefully detailed explanations you gave.
BUT…who was that lunatic woman in the background screaming “shut up” at the dogs that were barking? Holy shit! That was very distressing to listen to during your instruction.

They always cut off our girl’s eye lashes 😔
I was really hoping to see her face
A great video except for the distress of all the dogs barking in the background!
59:00
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Absolutely stunning groom 😊
Shame about the embarrassing shouting
Iam dhur you were modified 😮
enjoyed your video kind of wish your mask was not on...sometimes it was hard to hear what you were saying it muffled your words....but great demo
Mutt !!!
How can you claim a uniform grooming style when there's no rhyme or reason to a mutt?
You just stopped by to be snarky?
LOVE your scissoring technique.. Jw why you are wearing a face diaper, while interacting with a canine? Cloth or any other masking will not inhibit or protect one against bacterial or viral particles. It would be great to view your tips & grooming techniques-with clear speech. Loose the mask.
Groomers wear mask to keep from breathing in the hair flying around… they’ve been wearing mask for decades…
Sounds clear to me
You talk way too much‼️‼️‼️
YOU PUT ME TO SLEED‼️‼️‼️
Totally disagree … her explaining everything step by step. Helped me tremendously!
What’s a sleed❓⁉️⁉️
