I love the way she treats the dog, I can perceive her love for dogs. Also her instructions easy to understand. Great video!!!

[@dianachavez6232]

He looks so good. He’s a good boy and you are so loving and patient!

[@lfa3963]

I've recently inherited a shih tzu from a family member. I've had her on/off her whole life but never had to groom her, or understood what a groomer did to achieve her look. Thank you so much for this wonderful video! I can now picture what's being done to my girl and I feel so much more relaxed about it. I can only hope her groomer is as confident, gentle and sweet as you are. Thanks so much!

[@lauriebrady7670]

I have a Shih-Poo and a Shih Tzu, and your videos are instructive and fun to watch. Thank you for showing how grooming can be fun, gentle, and positive for dogs and humans. :)

[@soulfulspec]

You're so sweet to the dogs. I have puppy fever and just watch your videos on repeat lol

[@irenechanubc]

Thanks! This will be very useful for clipping my dog while we're stuck inside and the groomers are closed in my area.

[@Mischiou]

Great video and explanation, thanks for sharing your talent. He's such an adorable & good boy.

[@phyllisbubnick4622]

Thank you, this was such a great video!! It will be my go-to reference this weekend when I attempt to do a proper groom on my shih tzu cross. btw, your love of what you do and your dogs shines through :)

[@TamiGoldmann]

Beautiful! Such a good pupper!

[@Jere4319]

Beautiful work...I know some about grooming have a one year old who I have clipped down because his hair was matting up overnight and I used a flea comb, slicker brush and another comb on him everyday and when it got to the point that he got very large mats 2 days in a row I thought it's time...so thank you for your video. Never had a shih tzu and he's really different but in a good way. hated to cut his lovely coat but it is summer, after all.

[@Jade_902]

I’m happy you said “Shih-Tzu” properly 🐶 Thanks for the tips

[@screamingeorge1]

Thank u for these videos

[@LoveofGrooming]

Your welcome, stay safe 😀

[@janroth6830]

Great video....thank you so much.

[@cynthiaingram9949]

Thankful for your videos. Your videos are the closest and the most realistic I can get to grooming my Lhasa Apso with long hair. I have the #4f. Are you using the same blade for your finishing clip?

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, yes I used the same blade for finishing

[@yonihumphrey2860]

Great work! I have a shitzu and I order clippers for home because our groomer closed. due to the pandemic. Do you happen to know what the 4F blade equivalent would be on the Wahl 5 in 1 wireless clippers?

[@partyfortwo]

I love that you groom and you have a flock of birds.I groom and i also own a senegal and two parrotlets.

[@yes24__]

[@sheryleasimpson2230]

Thank you for sharing I have two shih tzus who go to the groomers I’m hoping to start my own so these videos will really help x

[@PrettyGoodLookin]

Hi, Are you using an attachment comb ? If so what size ?

[@LoveofGrooming]

HI, I used a 4f blade, no comb attachments. You could use a #2 comb wahl comb attachment which is a similar lenght

[@jamiehankins1058]

i love shih tzus ive had 2 or 3 in my 29 years really thinking about another for a playmate for my standard poodle to grow up with

[@sybillatietz-ot7dx]

Sehr gut gemacht Toller Friseur.Wuerde ich weiter empfehlen ❤🎉😊Hat sich auch um das Tier gekümmert,viel mit ihm erzählt.Es war auch ein lieber Kerl.Alles Liebe.Bleiben Sie gesund.❤😊

[@briannacortes4015]

Great vid!!

[@marandatennant112]

What size guard do you use on your clipper?

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, the sizes of guard combs that I use often is the O, 1 and the 2. Hope this helps

[@apomaria]

Great video, thank you!

[@ettenadra]

Hi! I found your channel as I was desperately looking for tips how to groom my shih tzu. She’s a mess, its been 3 months since her last haircut (we groomed a month before we were put on lockdown) and now her hair’s all over her face. Plus her nails are crazy long. Do you think I can do a good job trimming her if all I have are scissors? Or should I just wait till this is all over? Would appreciate any tips!

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, it will depend if you are confident or not. If you are nervous it's best to brush and comb daily. Some people only use scissors. Just be careful

[@westcoastpressure]

What kind of clippers

[@LoveofGrooming]

The links to the clippers are in my description. The cordless clippers are not available but the corded are and they are less expensive, here are the clippers amzn.to/34sgCYe

[@lucycurrant7415]

How do you get your high Tuzla to stay still? I can’t get mine to stay at peace when I’m cutting round her feet and face. Please help

[@LoveofGrooming]

This dog is well behaved because he was groomed since a puppy and groomed on a regular schedule of every six weeks. Use positive reinforcement. Brush and comb him everyday and praise when he lets you do what you need to do. Take your time and start off with 5 minute intervals and increase the times when he is letting you groom him. Bring to professional groomers by weekly or every month so he can get used to it. Put him on a steady surface at waist level. Praise and treat!

[@lucycurrant7415]

Thanks I’ll give it a go.

[@anniecoston6309]

Very good job 👏 👍

[@LoveofGrooming]

Thank you very much

[@anahitajarrah3058]

He is such a handsome good boy. 🥰

[@paulinedavis8734]

The exact spit and image of my little Shih Tzu. THIS FELLOW is an absolute SWEET HEART ❤️ so mellow & cooperative.

[@Krisp138]

Can anyone reccomend a good brand of clipper for shitzu with a thick coat ? My dogs fur is so thick it takes me hours to do it..if not days cuz I get tired of doing it, with the one i have i find it better to even use no blade but then sometimes it ends up looking ridiculous and take too much off,lol. Just tired of paying so much for haircuts. Itd be much appreciated.

[@LoveofGrooming]

These are the clippers that I have been every day for years amzn.to/3BnH1al they also come in cordless amzn.to/3xwqmAm

[@yes24__]

i have a shih tzu and during this quarantine all groomers are closed. i do have clippers but only doing her face.

[@pepper_renee]

Thank you for sharing. Wish you were in Katy, texas. I NEED a good groomer who cares, to groom my 3 year old shih tzu. She’s ALWAYS terrified going to the groomer.

[@asha5105]

Hello everyone. Just wondering if anyone can share their experience with Shihtsu puppy 5 months being shaved. As I was reading they have double coat and shaving might damage the coat permanently. Does it grows back completely? If you have any thought or experience please share.

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, your puppies coat will grown back. The coat continuously grows. I have not seen a shih tzus puppy's coat ruined by shaving as a puppy.

[@roxieolson4015]

Hi...your grooming videos are so helpful. What brand sheers do you use? I haven't found good sheers in mid-price range. Suggestions? Thank you!

[@LoveofGrooming]

I love the kenchii shears. These are nice amzn.to/3IoMeTc

[@BattlefrontZero]

Is it better to use clippers to cut most of the hair short and then wash/blow and then clip again?

[@LoveofGrooming]

It depends on the amount of hair and how short you want it. If the dog hasn't been groomed in over 8 weeks and the coat is very long its best to clip first. If the dog is groomed on a 4 to 6 week basis and no mats then wash first.

[@beverlypearson5332]

Did you cut his eyelashes? I always ask my groomer to leave them, but once in a while, I pick him up and his gorgeous lashes are gone. 😢

[@justjackcrain]

I trim mine because when they sleep the lashes can curl into the eye and cause gunk. But it might be a dog by dog basis

[@StackeyBlue]

I didn’t ignorantly jump into shih tzu ownership. I knew grooming would be a deal. But I also knew my realistic budget. I was prepared to take on the task. I might have underestimated grooming. I grew up with big dog mixes and mutts that lived outdoors by demand and were about to shed it out. I knew it would be much larger challenge. I didn’t understand it tho lol. I ignorantly have now bought 5 sets of clippers under $50 with guides and thought for sure against grow patterns was best practice. They have all failed so hard to give an even cut. I knew it shouldn’t take a dozen passes to level the same area with itself. My dude is almost 1 year now and I finally hit a realization that this was a mildly traumatic experience for both of us each time. I even got a hanging harness for his legs because he was jerking away so bad. He stays still in the harness but I honestly think its him being frozen in terror. Turns out I knew nothing. I am not excited about using scissors because that’s probably a honed skill. And it’s more labor then I was hoping… still quicker then then my methods though. I figure if we have to do this… maybe I should put some effort into learning how to make it comfortable for us both because it’s not a good time. I guilt feed him like a pack of hotdogs each time and that’s not great. This is wildly helpful. I appreciate that your taking the time to share this even though one might think it reduces your potential clients, because I was getting there and dreading that hard. I think I will share you in the subreddit for shih tzus and try to help boost your audience some because I really do think this is valuable and there a lot of new owners there that are working through journey this too. I am gonna go check out some more of your videos and am feeling substantially more confident that my dude and I will survive better moving forward. Already ordered better quality clippers too. I was not ignorant getting this dog, I adore him so much, perfect temperament, personality and size for the companion i was seeking. I mostly nailed it. Grooming has a been a challenging endeavor but I am pretty committed doing better for him. Also thanks for the reassurance that sometimes you make them bleed. Probably the longest and most ridiculous comment ever but seriously thank you. This is a game changer. I have been browsing videos for a bit looking for clear guidance and I found it here!

[@Hard_UncleRuckus]

Dude wrote a college level essay 💀

[@jjsadventures]

So I have an unusual question. How do you keep your blade cool so it doesn’t burn the skin since you don’t have a comb clip on it?

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, I use a kool lube and change the blade when hot amzn.to/3Ub95aj

[@chandraprimlani8810]

What a good obedient little boy, to allow u to groom him without any problems. I have a lovable Shih Tzu as well. Boy or boy, he's nowhere like this well behaved Shih Tzu. Will not allow the groomer to do his face, eyes and nails. Good with his puppy cut. Been grooming him since he was 4 months. His first groomer managed him better but my baby constantly got an ear infection and allergies after grooming. Ear infection was due to plucking his hair from his ears. Had to stop sending him to her. Now I have a groomer coming home. She's loving and my baby loves her as well. But no way can she get anywhere close to his under eyes. I love your tutorial. Very helpful. Thank you. Have a blessed weekend. 🐶🐶🐶❤🐕🐕

[@julieberry1683]

Could you recommend a less expensive clipper and scissors since I would only be grooming my own dog?

[@user-kz4yx5nb3q]

25:17 Wonderful groomer and video! I always have difficulty because my Shi tsu is 8 months old!

[@rileyramsey5797]

The sharp shears near his eyes made me so nervous. My groomer uses shears with a rounded tip

[@kimm31]

What I’d give to have that kind of confidence. I know it’s just going to take time & practice but that’s why I sort of dread doing it! Nails & private areas are soooooooooooooo scary for me 🥵

[@lindafriedman4148]

Show on a full coat shih tzu please

[@LoveofGrooming]

If I ever get a client with a full coated Shih Tzu I will make a video but it is very rare to see one in my salon

[@lindafriedman4148]

I find it so weird that such a popular breed is not being groomed more in full coat. You are a groomer can you tell me how to groom back of legs and under tail. Scissor.. thinning shears.. I will buy.

[@DazTech.]

I don't get why your clippers are going through so easily mine won't touch the hair

[@tinaharvey356]

I have cute dog I don't know if she is Shiz zu or Maltese or what she has a cute curly tail. She dies not shed

[@courtneystrozier9634]

Why didn't you suggest what the owners do about his ears?

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, I have other videos on my channel about grooming ears.

[@Ericabini2014]

Questo cane almeno ci vede è un'po' più bello. Prima non ci vedeva niente.

[@merrileemose571]

Noisy clippers……😮

[@alidamorris2594]

Not you but I hate the (Noose) around the neck😞

[@LoveofGrooming]

The noose is for safety. They don't get strangled. It's the same as a leash. It's not meant to cause harm, it should be used correctly.
