So we purchased a nail Clipper and an electric trimmer kit comprising a DVD showing a groomer in activity then came the hard part – using them

Prince Alvin, the Do It Yourself Dog Groomer’s Fantasy

At 7 months, Alvin is occasionally calm AND he has been dressed twice by a specialist. Following a thorough brushing, we put him up on a seat at the ideal level for grooming. So long as I hold his mind, he is lulled into a trance from the sound of the clippers.

Alvin is a Bichon Frise/Cockapoo mix and looks the best when he is groomed using a modified poodle cut.

Sir Simon, the Do It Yourself Dog Groomer’s Nightmare

Simon, a 14-week-old, may seem cute, but he is a little monster. Grooming him is not straightforward. Besides he has a short attention span, the only way we can use the trimmer is when someone is feeding him treats at precisely the exact same time.

The real bad thing is that during a recent grooming session that he ate a lot of treats mixed in with a couple of hair balls and barfed up them an hour later. He also has two bare spots when he pet grooming miami unexpectedly. He’s good for around 2 – 5 minutes; afterward, he loses focus and begins moving.

The Great news – over the last 3 times we have groomed him, we discovered a pup under all that hair. And he must associate grooming along with the treats. Finally, his dressing will get easier.

Right now, we groom Simon fairly short around. Additionally, with both dogs, we listen to the hair around the eyes. The dogs will need to see, and brief eye hair reduces Simon’s tear stains. Be careful to angle the scissors level before the eyes.

Do IT Yourself Dog Grooming Tips

When you are ready to clip your dog for the first time, get someone to assist you. He/she can hold the dog’s head so that you can clip.

 Have Loads of Treats and have your helper feed the puppy treats if he is not cooperating.

 Clip in short Increments of time – no longer than a couple of minutes. Discontinue when he moves too much or begins biting.

 Clip his nails after you have clipped his hair/fur. Be careful how much you clip. If you clip the fast, the puppy will bleed. Have a look at treatments online before you run into this circumstance. It is a fantastic idea to clip a bit at a time to prevent cutting the quick.
