Hi Amy! I have been enrolled in Animal Behavioral College for a year which has an online course for dog grooming. I was in the process of completing my hours to receive my certification but my mentor was absolutely terrible. She is the type of groomer that gives us a bad name. She was constantly yelling at the dogs and sometimes I could even hear her smack them. On top of that she wasn’t trying to teach me anything. It was terrible and I would go home crying every day. I couldn’t handle it anymore but luckily the owner of the grooming salon decided to shut down that part of her business so my mentor is no longer my mentor and no longer a groomer. 😊 Anyway I have been leaning everything I know by watching your videos. You have seriously helped me so much!!! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you and your channel. You are such an inspiration to me and I aspire to be like you and groom like you. I saw that you have a basic dog grooming course available. I would very much like to take it. I see the link to that already but I also remember you saying something that there is like a monthly subscription group or video conference. I don’t know if you are still doing that but if you are will you please tell me how to access it!!! Thank you so much! YOU ROCK!!!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🫶🏼🐩✂️

[@tbhgodrick6120]

Helped me make my decision on my first set of shears for my pup!

[@adrianaduff2740]

You got us through Covid with our 2 Shih Tzus. Now I’m comfortable and confident grooming them at home! Thank you!!!

[@GoGroomer]

That’s wonderful 💕

[@Tam_Eiki]

Thank you for making this easy-to-understand video. I needed the chunker sheers to do what I envisioned but didn't know there were different kinds of blending/trimming sheers. You just saved me over $100 on the wrong sheers that will be going back tomorrow!

[@mom2jeremy]

What a valuable video! Thanks for showing us the difference. And give Teddy a treat for being so patient!

[@GoGroomer]

Absolutely!

[@princesswarrior4797]

I just found your channel! And i love it. I worked as a vet assistant in the past but I want to be a groomer one day. I have a job interview today for a bather/brusher at a grooming salon. Pray everything works out☝🙏🐶🐱 thanks for these videos. Learning so much😘

[@pamchappell8258]

She always has the best advice. Good luck with your job interview! 🤞

[@GoGroomer]

Best wishes 🙏

[@pamchappell8258]

Thanks again for such a valuable video. You always have the best advice for grooming these fur babies and you have such a love for them and your grooming. 💛

[@GoGroomer]

My pleasure to help:)

[@denicejanssen4843]

Thanks Amy I’m learning so much from you and now will use my Kenchi chunker more!

[@BelladonnaButterfli]

Thank you. I understand shears better now. I have learned and will continue to learn so much valuable info from you🙂

[@GoGroomer]

Fantastic!!

[@shawnalmay]

Just LOVE your video’s ! You make it so understandable and you are so sweet with your clients ;)

[@donnafarmer3904]

Thank you for this video!! I only have one blending shear! Ah, what an education!! Time to go shopping for additional blending shears. Love your videos. Many thanks!

[@GoGroomer]

Awesome! Good shears are a game changer.

[@corieking205]

I've got a special cut for my malshi, it's called "the covid cut" it was a different look each time till I got better at it. Now I'm not so croocked.and my darlin is so patient with me.

[@briannacortes4015]

Love love love your vids! Just got my chunckers!

[@GoGroomer]

🙌😍

[@JessicaSantos-gb8ht]

Gracias 🎉

[@mirandalee4879]

Thank you so much! I always feel that I’m using my thinning shears wrong cuz I don’t fully understand them but now I do and I wasn’t! It feels good to know that I was doing it correctly but I now know more about the different types of shears I can use. But I would love to know how to help my client I clean homes and dog sit for her she has a big Leonberger who is going on to be a year old and she gets some Big matting around her neck (collar area) she has an electric fence. And in her leg joints. She is pro groomed at the recommended 6 weeks time and brushed almost every day if not every day. But my true question is what tool do you recommend for her big thick downy coat to help keep the matting at bay?

[@williamward359]

You are very good. Very comprehensive

[@GoGroomer]

Glad it was helpful!

[@annesmith2018]

Hi, I’ve been enjoying your videos & have been learning a lot. Could you advise me as to what type of thinning scissors to use for a Duck Toller? I would just need to do ears & feet. Thanks!

[@jams235]

Do you have a video describing what each scissor is for ? I am new to your channel

[@terryhuggins8529]

Could you show more on Scottish Terrier, shear work and hand stripping?TIA

[@GoGroomer]

I’m looking to get in touch with a Scottie Breeder for demo’s

[@user-me9qw3sw8t]

What sheers would you recommend for a 9 lb Toy Poodle? I have 7" straight and curved sheers. Wondering about blender or chunking sheers. I'm a new home groomer. Love the work you do. Thanks!

[@taraharris9598]

Do anyone do the serrated thinners in left hand pairs?

[@susanyakus7364]

I wish you would show how you give Riley a full mustache. I struggle with that. What a sweet baby!

[@GoGroomer]

Will do!

[@CritterGal68]

Thank you! I have a ragdoll & need to keep his bib & pants "in check". Really on the fence between a chunker & blending shear. He has so much ultra soft, long hair. I'm thinking chunker. Any comments? ALSO, when I try to buy a blending shear, they're often labeled as "thinning" shears. Are they the same? Thinning shears make me think of human thinning shears where you cut & pull down shaft of hair to "thin" the hair. That is not what blending shears seem to do (the action of cutting w/blending seems diff than cutting w/thinning shears. What am I missing?

[@GoGroomer]

Sometimes brands call blenders, thinking shears. If they are made for dogs they are the same. But there is a difference between the technical term blending and thinning shears. Thinning shears have teeth on both blades.

[@amandastainsby4480]

Great 😊

[@MonMon-st7vt]

Awesome 👏

[@GoGroomer]

Thank you 🤗

[@lupitamunoz4538]

Hi I need some advice on what shampoo and conditioner to buy for my shithtzu if you can answer my comment … I wi be buying product one by one since I am in a budget and clueless on what to get 😂

[@GoGroomer]

Igroom sqalane shampoo and conditioner.

[@krissys4424]

Hello Amy: Could you tell me please what blending shears you would recommend for a Maltese, I saw you were saying the Jody Murphy blenders are good but do they take off too much hair? I have nothing but time to groom Molly at home but she is only 3 months old and I want her to eventually be groomed like the Korean cuts, I have bought her many accessories already like bling bling berets and many bows, could you please recommend the best blenders to use for this. I look forward to your reply. 😘

[@GoGroomer]

My sapphire 52 tooth blender is great on a drop coat: kenchiigrooming.com/sapphire-by-amy-leigh-52-tooth-thinner-7-5-offset/

[@krissys4424]

@@GoGroomer Thank you so very much!

[@jj..-]

Thanks Amy you cut their whiskers off?

[@GoGroomer]

sure, depending on the trim and breed type. They always grow back and it does not affect a dog to have the whiskers trimmed contrary to certain beliefs.

[@MplsMaven]

[@iwannabethebestmom09]

Do you have a curved blending shears?

[@GoGroomer]

yes, curved blending shears are a waste of money because they are bent after manufacturing which causes them the lock teeth and hard to sharpen.

[@valeriekuhn3746]

Who the heck can pay $200 for a shear? Unless you're a pro, but I don't have that kind of $$$$ to throw around!

[@GoGroomer]

You don’t have to purchase these tools, you can take you dog for routine grooming with a professional who has invested in all the right equipment. Knowing how much we spend on proper tools gives you a whole new appreciation I’m sure 😊

[@dottyk1637]

Actually, buy the best you can afford. Buying better equipment of anything, it pays for itself in the long run, better metals/manufacturing allows the cutting edge to stay sharp longer and the action is easier on your hands. P.S. I've researched, full customized shears can be $1000 plus, absolutely gorgeous!

[@TravelsMints]

Lol what a sad mindset you have Valerie 😂
