      Kayla Hall its a long hair chihuahua. The hair on the ears of a papillon is longer. The muzzle on the papillon is also longer and pointier. The reason the ears are sometimes floppy it’s because they never tape his ears as a puppy to be fully erected.

    • @mkopakowski9044
      @mkopakowski9044 5 років тому +2

      I agree. The appeal of the breed is their large chest puff and the fluffy tail. My Paco had his first haircut recently and it was just that... a haircut. I even made sure they kept some of the long white streaks of ear hair long because that's what they're supposed to look like. My boy likes to be outside a lot, so he needs his protective fur. He's very sweet and playful. Everyone has a different idea of what they like and that's okay. Shaving is just not for me.

    Dede, while training as a Vet Tech, I learned that a dog's coat helps regulate their body temp. When shaved they can become overheated and even get a sun burn. Have you heard this? Do you warn clients about sunburn?
    Not judging, just curious.

    • @hayleybarker890
      @hayleybarker890 6 років тому +1

      I doubt she warns clients about sunburn, as it’s probably common sense that exposed skin can be sunburned on a dog just like it is for us! I’d assume most of her clients are indoor dogs as well, and probably not in the sun for hours on end after a shave down.

      I just talked to a husky owner and we laughed about all the things people say, he said, I couldn't put him on video because he was wearing a company shirt. But, he was like, all the way shave the dog, he said the dog loves it, no shedding, and the dog is COOLER, and I said, tell me how you know that, because people are not going to agree, he said, you live with the dog, you shave the dog, its hot, you see him pant less and he is just more happy without all that hair. In my opinion, some things, just go out the door if you know on your own.
      In my opinion, get a husky, and have a long haired hot summer with that pet, then one year, summer, shave down, see what you think. Can't afford a husky, foster a husky for one year. Shave all the way! Never heard or seen a pet uncomfortable due to a shave down. A new appearance, yes, cats do that, one dog out of 5 k will do it, a shave down inside ear, where now it tickles, yes, some dogs do that, and shake their head the whole time, so we don't shave inside the ear. Sooooo, my opinion, do what is best for the dog and the owner and if what the owner requests is not unreasonable, and you can accomplish it, do it.

    Has your opinion changed on the basket muzzles? I have three dogs (2 westie-poos & a westie)I groom myself, and I am always nervous to trim nails. I know my dogs pick up on my energy. I don't want to stress them out just so I can get better at nail trims. I was thinking of the basket muzzle so I can reward the desired behavior and ignore or correct undesired. I want to prevent nipping while trimming nails or causing my dogs to be fearful of grooming.

    • @TheCrippledCrafter
      @TheCrippledCrafter 6 років тому +3

      Woody83 basket muzzles are far better for general use as they allow the dog to open their mouth to pant and therefore doesn't restrict the breathing. And they'll fit no less easily than the fabric type too x

    I loved the video, when you went to do the tail, I really wanted to see that part being done. I’m reluctant to do it cuz it’s one of my dog’s best features, lol I wouldn’t want to make him look silly. Loved your technique, thank you for sharing.

    Can you post a video on not cutting the hair too short and just shaping the long hair making it look clean and nice? I dunno if that made sense...

      I am also interested in seeing that. I recently got a puppy who has long hair.
