Grooming Tips: Before You Start Clipping Make Sure That You…

  • Step 1-WASH: It is important that you thoroughly wash and condition your dog’s fur to remove all dirt and debris from your dog’s coat. Using a flea shampoo will help remove any uninvited guests that may be taking residence in your dog’s coat. Always rinse with luke warm water after lathering.
  • Step 2-DRY: Towel dry to remove excess water. A hand dryer is recommended to thoroughly dry the coat. Ensure that the hand dryer is set to cool/warm setting and not hot. You don’t want to overheat your pet. Always allow your dog drinking water during grooming. Remember that your dog’s coat must be thoroughly dry before clipping. A wet coat will only cause the clipper to snag and cause premature corosion of the blade.
  • Step 3-COMB: ”If you can’t comb it, you can’t clip” Comb your dog during the drying stage to get rid of all knots.
  • Step 4-CLIP: Now it’s time to clip. Providing that the first three steps have been completed you will have no problem grooming your dog. Oil the blade before you turn it on. Remember to re-oil the cutting blade while groming every minute. Grooming can take 1-2 hours so you must take your time. Take a break every 10 minutes to prevent the clipper from overheating. Clean the blade of all excess hair before putting away.
