Just rescued my lovely 4 year old, Jack. Just Jack from a shelter. He’s an amazing dog and companion. The groomer said he was experienced with Westie cuts and even showed me the book he was using as reference. Wish I had watched this first! I don’t like settling for a hatch job, which is what I got. It’s only hair and I’m sure he’s just happy to have been sprung from the Big house! Thank you for such a precise explanation.
not sure what all if the hate was for, he was very gentle and the dogs loop was for safe handling... Grooming can be dangerous, the dog can sense his mood and vibe and she knows that her behavior is good. I'm sure at the very end her gave her praise. I love him, and sometimes grooms are silent and that's praise enough for the time.
I totally wish I could find a groomer for my westie that had this talent and expertise. I explain over and over what the cut should look like, and overtime I get back a doggie that I do not recognize until he grows out! The westie in this video is adorable and so well-behaved . The cut is wonderful!!!! Great job.
This little Westie is precious. She doesn’t seem to mind being groomed. She is more interested and curious about all the people and activity around her😀. The groomer is excellent in his work and the way he handles the little Westie.
I just adopted a Westie pup who has a severe heart condition -- so she doesn't have those great muscles that this little girl has. I think I'll be able to adapt a lot of Jonathan's pointers, though, and I just won't come in so tight. I love that Jonathan doesn't use clippers! (Too bad I didn't see those thinning shears before I retired. Tough to afford on Social Security!)
This is the best Westie cut video I’ve ever seen! I wish i were in Florida! Do you know of any good Westie grooming salons in LA, California? Thank you.
Great tutorial showing a superb Westie cut. The thinning shears cut is far more natural. The pup was firmly handled to get the job done quickly and safely. These shears cost over £200. Look worth it though.
Estoy dando mis primeros pasos en el mundo de la estética canina y daría cualquier cosa por ser instruida por este hombre!! Excelente profesional. Maravilloso trabajo felicitaciones 🎊🎉
Please come to Sydney Australia and do some kind of workshop! I have learnt so many new techniques from your videos I can only imagine what I could learn from you in person!
I have a 2 year old westie and I love the way you groom them!! Great job!!! However there is no way my little Eddie will be as still as the one you have there ;)))) I would love to get you to groom him, however, he's in the U.K.. but keep it up you do a fantastic job!!!
You are GOOD! I really enjoyed watching. You handle those scissors as though they were extensions of your fingers..... You were not rough with the dog, you were doing a video, not in your salon where I am sure you talk to the dog. Thank you, I learned a lot
I met thus guy in the trade show in Pasadena,CA. He's does wonderful work and us very knowledgeable in breed cuts. I used to watch the show Groomer Has It where he competed and I believe he was cheated out of first place. The other guy who won first place had a nicer disposition, but was not a better groomer than him. I'm glad he's doing very well for himself though from the 15 minutes of fame he got from the show.
Thanks for nice video, I'll try to cut my westie myself, every time she goes to a groomer her hair on face and ears are not even and they shave it her too much on her back and belly.
How fabulous! Wonderful job. Never mind the hate. People just say what they want to say BC they don't know the ins and outs of grooming. Haters he is grooming a dog with people around owners, breeders, other groomers someone would have stopped him. But I understand...haters gotta hate. Keep up the great work my groomer friend.👍
Love how some people here (think they) know how to handle dogs better than a freaking master groomer. You can always tell the pro-groomers from the ignorant amateurs on these videos.
Avradizimir This is a pro-groomer?😂 Pro-groomer knows how to groom a westie. Pro-groomer knows, that a westie has to be hand-striped. Pro-groomer knows, that if you cut its coat, its coat will be soft and straight. Pro-groomer knows, that a westie should have a wiry and wavy coat. If you cut it, the good coat is gonna be gone.
best tail yet!! all the groomers I've taken my westie to ALWAYS screw up the tail!! I guess should bring an actual carrot next time I see a groomer so they can see what an actual carrot - as in carrot tail - looks like! Or just ask the groomer to watch this youtube video, lol
I love your videos ,I'd have no problem with you doing a groom on my westie ,in fact I come back to watch and follow your lead .You have to be firm with these westie dogs as the have to be treated firmly when grooming incase they move and they get cut

My downfall is always the cute scruffy hair on the inside part of the ears. I have the left ear nailed, no problem. But the right ear? Yeesh - I always flub that one.
Johnston, how long have you been grooming westies? I'm a cosmetologist, and just a tarted cutting my Westie,..... ..it's ok, everyone said she looks good where are you located ??? I would like you to teach me
the only real groomer is Mehmet Gunes and he is the only one i would happily let groom my westie ... you can feel the love when he does his " job" . his dogs are all free to move when he grooms them and you can see how peaceful and happy his "clients" are....nothing to say against JONATHAN who does only his job and he does it well ... yet i like when somebody does his job with love ,passion and so , so , so much tenderness ;)
The loop is in a position where it's not directly on the trachea and causing the doggie discomfort and it limits the amount of movement the cutie bug can make with her head. The dog is alert, curious and poised, not showing signs of distress.
When you are doing a normal groom on a dog you leave a tiny bit more but this one isn't what I would call to tight. It isn't in a position where it's on any parts that could cause discomfort and she can still look around and breathe comfortably. The big reason it's probably like that is because this is a professional demonstration. The dog needs to be very still to make a good instructional video and also to not get cut or injured. Normally while grooming we can have the dog looser but we also can put our hands and body wherever to make sure the dog is safe but while making a video that is difficult so instead the loop is higher.
I loved the cut. Just wish he had been a little nicer to the dog.. Like "good girl" and stuff like that.. Even though it is "just a dog" they deserve respect too.. Sorry, Jonathan but I would not use you to trim my Westie.. I like compassion..
LOL. you literally don’t know shit about grooming. speaking to the dog can hype it up more. also this is probably a extremely well trained dog, it doesn’t need praise for doing what i was trained to do. he was being respectful. you’re ridiculous

What a gorgeous westie!
Fabulous! Now, what do you do for maintenance of your hands???? Heat? Massage, stretches ?
Victoria Payton some of us have to groom over a 3 day period so that our hands can recover!

Good afternoon. tell me how many millimeters you leave on your back.what kind of nozzle do you use?
If I did that much thinning shear work on a Westie my hands and wrists would have to take a six week vacation to the Bahamas to recover....
what is the pricing on the shears? Love them
What degree of thinning shears do you use on the Westin?
Are the female westie fuller in hair then the male?
Hi Jonathan I would like to know what kind of thinning shear are you working with, and where can I buy it ?
+Bygo Garcia Jonathan has his own line of shears by Kenchii. Check them out here: kenchiigrooming.com/categories/signature-series/jonathan-david.html
My groomer leaves long hair on legs, rear skirt and chest. What can I do to trim it like you do?
Thanks for nice video, I'll try to cut my westie
myself, every time she goes to a groomer her hair on face and ears are not even and they shave it her too much on her back and belly.

@@juliazackova6589 Hey Julia, it's called a pet trim...
Júlia Žáčková a pro groomer does not have to hand strip it’s the clients choice 🙄

Amazing job.
what was that spray on the table ? i used to use it and cant remember the name
The coat handlers, but the label looks different now
My Westin is soooo matted what should it do for her?
brush her hair every week. or if you’re too lazy (which it sounds like you are cuz she is matted) get her groomed monthly
Magnifique merci

Shouldn't there be some slack in that leash?

If only salon groomers had half of your knowledge there wouldn't be so many ugly Westie grooms running around the world
HI mt name is Danielle and I like your still I my self is a groomer
My dog needs a cut and wash he looks smelly I have to book him I think
das ist einen westie schneiden und nicht trimmen....
He is good, the only thing I don't like is to see there is not slack on the leash, is pulling up the poor doggie neck.
that’s how it is at every grooming salon. would you prefer it fall off the table and break its neck?

I loved the cut. Just wish he had been a little nicer to the dog.. Like "good girl" and stuff like that.. Even though it is "just a dog" they deserve respect too.. Sorry, Jonathan but I would not use you to trim my Westie.. I like compassion..
yep mine is the same @HeyItsNicole! MSP
He was WONDERFUL with the dog!! If he was any gentler the Westie would have wanted a treat! Gheesh
