....because I have a poodle and want to save some money. I think it's a good skill to have too, and of course it's only going to get better with practice. I just need more practice. Duncan has been booked in to the pros next week for a 'reset' clip I guess you would call it.
I have some questions though. I have learned that to 'fluff up' the poodle, they need to be blowdried. Is a hairdryer okay to use? Because the only other driers I can find for dogs over here are $995, and it's going to take ALOT of grooms to pay that off! Is it bad for the dogs coat if I wash, towel dry, brush/comb & then clip?
And, quite often you guys talk about sizes. I've tended to go all over in one comb, tail and nose in a much much shorter one, and sizzor the legs & feet. I've been keep it the same measurement length, but don't know how these equate in numbers? I'm not sure if that makes sense at all
Thanks!
