    Do you still do the pet grooming paid course?

    how about a aggresive dog like mine that no one wants to groom and i am doing it myself cause he was so matted for not even letting me get close to him with clippers.. how can i get him to let me groom him?? he is a shih tzu 5 yrs old

  4. @dragosisters8548 on March 9, 2025 at 11:31 pm

    Hi again. lol I just went onto Amazon and put all of your suggested items in my cart, except for the Groomers Helper® 3/8" Professional Loop – Pet Grooming Safety Loop. They did not have any and did not know if they would get any back in stock. That usually means that they won’t get anymore. Would you suggest something else in it’s place? The prices have changed a little bit since you did this tutorial. It now totals $1424.95 without the Groomers Helped Professional Loop. lol It is ok though because I know they are amazing products because of your expertise. Thanks again!

    Hi I am Mary Ellen, from Whiteville NC , I moved here from Mo . The grooming here is 3 times the cost in Mo. I cave 2 Maltes doge . I am 72 yr old and live on a fix income. So I need to start grooming my baby’s. Trying to figure out what need

  7. @WilliamStewart-h8p on March 9, 2025 at 11:35 pm

    The wahl clippers have been out of stock in most places for a very long time. Are there other clippers that you can recommend? I have a Maltese. She is not a fan of the buzzer. So a more quiet one would be great. By the way. I enjoy your channel. I’ve learned so much.

  8. @brandicristelle on March 9, 2025 at 11:37 pm

    Im trying to research clippers for full grooms.. I would like to use an adjustable blade with combs.. is that possible for full grooms? I like the spektra, they also have reaktor (can’t find much on it so it may be pretty new). I’m a new groomer just starting my own business… was using Wahl 5 in 1 with combs for all overs but now I need something better. I prefer not to have A5 as I don’t want to have to buy a bunch of blades and attachments, which is why I like adjustable..is this doable?

    I’m just getting into grooming my cockapoo due to a bad experience he had with a groomer at pet smart. I’m looking to get a Allinone vacuum groomer kit. What’s your thoughts on this product?

  12. @kathymiller7943 on March 9, 2025 at 11:39 pm

    I have poodles and Cockapoo all of the groomer sad clip dogs Dirty my clippers will not go through a dirty dog even brand new blades from Texas

  13. @carriesullivan8998 on March 9, 2025 at 11:41 pm

    When just starting to groom at home. Have Havanese puppies. Are grooming scissors from Amazon sufficient.

  21. @freedomring128 on March 9, 2025 at 11:48 pm

    What do you suggest for a vacuum attachment for my clippers? I have the Wahl Bravura and the Bravmini. Also, I have a hard time doing full body with the Bravura. I’m considering getting the KM10 but since you posted this video, the price has increased over $100!!! Should I be able to get away with using the Bravura? I am not a professional… I am a Shih Tzu breeder and groom my own dogs out of pure necessity. Thank you for your videos! They are entertaining, thorough, and very educational!

    My dog HATES being brushed and groomed of any kind. Any tips on how to make that better for him? He is a one year old mix of Poodle, Bichon, and Maltese. So his hair is a little curly and bushy but not poofy. Would a detangled spray be ok to use on him?

  46. @Merlin2634-m4d on March 10, 2025 at 12:26 am

    I bought some trimmers at the thrift store there for cutting human hair to help the elderly lady who can’t afford to have a dog groomed anymore thing is the blades get dull really fast because the dog has really thick hair. It’s a small terrier . My question is, do you know if there are blades that will fit these trimmers to make it easier to trim the dog I have a Oster a Wahl and a and is The blades that come with it and sharpen the sandpaper, which works but not for very long. Trimmers get hot really quick trying to cut her hair any tips would be a great help. PS she says I do a great job and so do the neighbors and her family. Lol

  49. @brandibussard7820 on March 10, 2025 at 12:27 am

    I’m so thankful I found you! I very much want to be a professional but unfortunately there’s not a class close enough to me. I found a groomer about 1 1/2 hours away that said she would teach me. I’m seeing I need more! I’m learning so much from you! Just really wish I could take actual classes and learn it ALL! Can you tell me what it is you wear while grooming? I wore regular clothes and they are probably not any good now, way too much hair stuck in them!
