Customer Review: I was a little disappointed
The book covers what you will need, and the steps for grooming are clear. But some instructions like "scissor the tail into a full, round pom-pom" are OK, but I need directions for HOW to make a pom-pom on my poodle's tail. And it's great to know that my pekingese needs to have his tummy shaved, but HOW do I get him to stand on his hind legs to let me do it? And how do I cut the hairs at the tip of my pomeranian's ears when she keeps trying to bite the scissor? I'm not sure this is a "beginner's" book. It would be a great quick reference book for someone who has a grooming shop and needs to look up the clipping pattern for a schnauzer or a cocker spaniel as a refresher before she starts clipping the dog. I'll have to keep looking for a book that is even more basic.
Customer Review: a great how-to!
I've learned how to cut my dog's nails. Did it! No Problem! Now I'm waiting for the dog's clippers to arrive so I can groom him myself instead of paying $50.00 each time I bring him to the grommer. That's me now!!!
