I know it’s weird but I think the grinch feet are too cute!!! It always breaks my heart when I trim my aussies grinch hairs. But the sophisticated paws are just too cute too 😭

[@apacksjourney]

I think it’s really cute too lol but the dirt they track in isn’t 😂😂😂😂

[@bdhartmanhartman5048]

I am sure many people out there are just as fearful as I am about hurting their babies! My baby is a rescue who rescued me!!! I ordered a pet nail grinder that came with the clippers. I used them but was only taking a little off at a time. There is a light that is on the grinder that aluminates the quick. I watched this video (thank you @apacksjourney) and felt much more confident! I was actually able to cut my babies nails and trim up her feet so she doesn’t have grinch feet anymore!! 🙌 Also she loves the brush! I didn’t want to hurt her so I did not know that, until after watching this video and I tried it! A huge thank you to APacksJourney! ❤ By the way your babies are beautiful! God Bless!

I have a mini auzzie as well, his cost though is extremely wavy and curly. He's only 4 years old and is still a toddler to me but I'm struggling with maintaining his behind area, he gets a lot of mats and clumps together

[@jonasluvnjk6113]

Sooo cute!!

[@MLeahi]

Fun video, I did cringe at scissors taking the matts out from the bum, I use a big dematting comb…still sharp, but safer than accidental cutting of the dog. Thanks for the video!

Your dogs are all beautiful! Your mini is so cute. We are getting our mini in 4 weeks. We have had 2 standards and decided to go smaller. It should be so much easier to groom a 25 lb dog vs a 65. I like that you use a nail grinder. That is one thing that I want to try. Our other 2 girls were grinners and I hope our next girl will be as well. There is nothing like an Aussie smile.😀

[@apacksjourney]

I love that aussie smile! It’s the best he’s the only one that smiles I have a few others that talk and howl funny 😆 congrats on your mini!

[@deeferan7467]

Love the smile, what is your mini weight? Thank you

[@apacksjourney]

Hi, Texas weighs about 26lbs :)

[@michaelevensonjr.2445]

Mine looks the same but is 38 pounds

[@katrinaburdette5635]

Hi mines 17 pounds at 7 months old :)

[@megiab]

we just adopted a mini aussie a couple of weeks ago. my last dog was an Aussie lab mix, so it's a whole different grooming style. i have a shedding blade from a Norwegian Buhund we had previously, but it's super big on my lil 27# pup. that rake may be a less intimidating way to go. 🤔

[@apacksjourney]

I highly recommend the rake! It’s a good product :) congrats on your new pup!

[@giah5908]

How do you keep the toe beans smooth...my mini licks everything off.

[@apacksjourney]

That’s a hard one I use mushers secret though

[@kaylaallen9227]

We just loving pup brush on our aussie works great

[@bebemathews2824]

What are their temperaments like? Do they like new people? Are they good for families that are always going around and new things?

[@apacksjourney]

Most Aussies love people, they are great family dogs giving they their needs are met. If you get a puppy they are very easy to introduce new things to. Also if your an active family they are a great breed for you!

[@LauraHopkinsCDL]

I groom and clean teeth daily and do full body health check. Thank you.

[@apacksjourney]

If I only had that kind of time 😆 That’s why It’s weekly

[@missdaisysunshine8633]

I love your R+

[@sharonwilliams1181]

Have my first 😍 mini she is red tri color with the heart of gold, 22 pounds, 6 years old. I’ve tried sitting using the bathroom floor for grooming or standing, but my back can’t take it. Did you build your own grooming “doohickey” table. Any advice?

[@apacksjourney]

Go on petedge dot com you can buy these tables for a pretty affordable price! Totally worth it my back kills me too! Lol

[@sophiaottley7203]

Hey! How big is he? So cute!

[@apacksjourney]

Texas weighs about 24lbs his sister dallas is slightly bigger at 28lbs :)

[@sophiaottley7203]

@@apacksjourney Thank you for getting back! they're both so cute. My puppy is estimated to be around 12lbs so trying to get a feel of how big that is!

[@apacksjourney]

Yeah mine are larger than I wanted but I love them either way ☺️ congrats on your puppy 🐶 🧡

[@sophiaottley7203]

@@apacksjourney Aw thank you :) They'r both so cute either way! And still small!

[@callingjc]

Can you tell me which product you use to trim his paw pads please? I want to try it for our mini Aussie! Your pack is beautiful!

[@apacksjourney]

Right now I’m using the holdog trimmers you can find it on Amazon it’s just a basic trimmer make removing that hair faster since some dogs don’t like their feet held for too long. Thank you so much! ☺️

[@callingjc]

@@apacksjourney thank you! I'm going to give them a try!

[@stxrleydrawz]

He is adorable! My fav breed of dogs are mini american shepherd, (large) australian shepherd and border collies. I just love the colors, everything about them is just perfect. Of course I love all dogs but those breeds are my fav :) Can you please make more videos with Texas Arcana and Dallas? ^^✨

[@apacksjourney]

Just because you asked we will! ♥️

[@lucky14cricket56]

This video is old, but why do you want the dog standing when you trim their nails?

[@apacksjourney]

You don’t have to have them standing but it is easier to see the nails when bending the paw back. :)

[@lucky14cricket56]

@@apacksjourney thank you! That makes sense, I was afraid I was doing something wrong. My mini is a rescue and was abused, so she’s still scared of strangers. I’ve been trying to pick up tips on how to groom her to keep her healthy.

[@-demon_dog-8511]

What kind of scissors do you use?

[@apacksjourney]

I bought a set for dogs off Amazon. I think it was their best seller but just a sharp curved pair

[@jaimemendoza4665]

Thank God My mini Aussie doesn't have that much fur, most if not all of his fur is pretty short, the longest hair would be the back neck area and the top part of his tail. He is very low maintenance.

[@apacksjourney]

How old is your aussie?

[@jaimemendoza4665]

About 3 years, he is a mini, I'm thinking he is mixed,but I don't know for sure. My mom rescued him from the street, I think he was thrown out because he had scabies/mange but she cured him believe it or not with used motor oil. He is a curious little dog and catches a lot of attention. Would you like to see some pictures of chirris? That's his name😁.

[@apacksjourney]

@@jaimemendoza4665 Yeah if hes three he has an adult coat. Long haired dogs are a lot of upkeep. Texas already needs this whole treatment again lol And sure i would love too!

[@ronibrooks2077]

Why is your video on fasr speed, can't see what you aere actually doing

[@apacksjourney]

I am going to redo this video! In more depth thanks for the feed back
