This was a pleasure to watch you work.

[@christine9604frisco]

He’s such a patient boy. I wish my Cotton was 1/10 that calm.

[@paulroberts3186]

Had to watch it again for the 3rd time. Learning to cut my Maltese at home....Thank you for the tutorial....

[@marialaurencio8470]

This is the best video I've found that I can see because she takes her time.

[@sandraturner8217]

I can’t get over what a good boy he is!!!

[@lenorecordesrealtor4666]

What a good patient puppy! Such a cute cut!

[@jmk1962]

This was fascinating to watch. What a well behaved puppy. He's just gorgeous.

[@sybillatietz-ot7dx]

Sie hatte eine gute Lehrmeisterin.Diese Ruhe die sie ausstrahlt,ganz toll.5Mal Daumen hoch.Es gibt sie noch,die lieben Menschen.🎉🎉❤❤😊

[@d.wilson248]

His coat is super thick. My fur baby is only 3Ibs at 3years old. She doesn't like her hair cut. Beautiful Dog a pleasure to watch thanks for all the tips.

[@thatguyhunt]

I have a malshi. This was very helpful from the beginning to the end. Thank you for taking the time to share because everyone doesn't always have the funds to take their sweet pup's to the groomers, so thanks again.

[@patriciabeamer2781]

Fascinating! I love my baby soooo much ❤️ She's my world.Shes 10 and named Precious appropriately!!😂

[@EBRKE18]

This is by far the best video I’ve come across! Thank you!!

[@sarahkillick3053]

This is so helpful. Thank you. And what a gorgeous dog. He was so good.

[@KarenBanjo]

Well done! A pleasure to learn from you, thank you so much for posting. This is the best Maltese grooming tutorial on KZbin. Thank you.

[@kimberlygoff5385]

THANK YOU for sharing this video and doing it with clear instructions and good view of what you’re doing.

[@zoe6489]

I'm training to become a dog groomer and this was SO helpful! Thank you so much for explaining each step so clearly :)

[@Julie-rc7wl]

You're such a great teacher! Thank you for emphasizing the importance of repetition in running the clippers over the same area to achieve a smooth coat. I've wondered what I was doing wrong.

[@tagless1012]

Thank you so much for posting this for all of us who have no idea what we are doing but are still in a shutdown mode and need to go ahead and try to trim the dog. It was so helpful that you explained things well, had close ups of what you were doing, and covered all the particular areas of the dog, and how they needed to be handled differently. We completed the job yesterday and were very pleased with how it worked out, thanks to you. Our little dog is SO much happier now!

[@ljubinkaobradovic5243]

You did great job on his face, I can’t never get the groomers to do the teddy bear look.👍

[@janboike6512]

Beautiful job. What a good boy. I enjoyed your video. You were so sweet and gentle. You can tell how much you like your work.

[@jerryoakes3364]

Thank you I learned a whole heck of a lot I have a seven-month-old multiple Havanese mix you make it look easy with a cooperative dog. I can’t say that my dog is cooperative. I realize I haven’t tipped the groomer enough.😝

[@sofiaestrella293]

Loved this tutorial! I feel very confident about grooming my dogs after watching your video, thank you so much❤️❤️

[@threemangos]

Best grooming teacher on KZbin!!

[@directiontonarnia]

You're so so so great !!! My goodness, how gently and lovingly you're handling him !!! Kudos !!! And since you're calm, nikki is doing such a nice job !! And he's a very good boy too 😍

[@benjaminjimenez5109]

Beautifully explained and showing clearly how the correct steps to follow.

[@BrwnSugaMomma]

Thank you so much for the most informative tutorial I’ve seen! I’ve been searching for one to attempt at grooming my Maltese and now I feel comfortable. Your skills were excellent, pace, tone and everything. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise 😊

[@karenschneider4267]

You do such a nice job on the feet, round looks so natural. Kitty paws!

[@jennymcknight1746]

Thank you so much. I’m going to watch one more time in the morning and attempt the cut.

[@tonimasone574]

This is the very best DIY video I have ever watched. Thank you.

[@donnaweaver2176]

This was a great video and I have watched a lot but she was so much easier to follow. This baby was a sweetie could. Of believe how good he was. Mine is very nosy and has to see and touch everything and is never still. Thanks so much!

[@annieburgoon7693]

This video really helped me! Thank you! My dogs look amazing right now thanks to your amazing instruction!

[@franceselam1437]

Wow thank you so much you make it look so easy

[@marianneblazowich3632]

This is a great video, you can actually see what is done and how to do it. Thank you!

[@mariawiley356]

Wow, an Amazing tutorial!!!! Thank you! This will be such a great help when trimming on my Maltese!!! You are so good with the doggie you’re trimming!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@a.a.8615]

Wow!!!! He is SUCH A GOOD BOY!!!!! So calm!!! Thank you for this video, you are good as well.

[@mariallableu8388]

I actually think I can do this after such a thorough demonstration! Thank you! Nikki is adorable 😍

[@jkmotorcyclegloryroads532]

One of the most helpful, specific videos I’ve found. I wish the camera person had kept the cord clicking still. It makes it harder to hear her (and it’s unbelievably distracting for those of us that are learning). Otherwise, the groomer herself is very helpful. Thank you.

[@softlanding138]

Thank you! I really appreciate the artistic work you are doing!

[@andiprice5122]

Love this tutorial, and how you handle the pup safely and calmly. Beautiful job

[@Justdiggingit]

I should have seen this before I “jacked” my Maxx up. I might go back and try and clean him up a bit. Thank you!

[@ghosthunter6649]

He's such a hansom boy!

[@rox4373]

Thank you for a fantastic tutorial. I really appreciated your guidance, especially following your hand holds and safety tips. My Havanese looks great .

[@leighalford2125]

Thank you for showing this video. You explain everything very clearly. And you do a really good job on the hair cut.

[@nonenonnenopenonenomorefor5556]

Beautiful job 👍

[@marypresley1064]

Very informative. Handled the puppy gently. Finished with a very attractive puppy cut. Thanks

[@Me-fl2hq]

Excellent tutorial!

[@sybillatietz-ot7dx]

Sie macht es sehr gut.. Schön ,fas sie imer wieder auf den 🐶 eingeht es ihn lobt,guter Junge.sie würde ich auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen 🎉Sehr schön 😉.Man merkt die Liebe zum Tier.Das ist für mich sehr wichtig.Frisiete selber Hunde.Gut gemacht.🎉❤😊Alles Liebe😊

[@kimberlythompson1835]

Thank you for taking the time, I really enjoyed this. I have two white Havapoos and they are very similar in looks. I have to be honest though, this is how I don't like my puppies to be cut. I don't care for the shape of the ears or the thick bangs, which reminds me of a toddler who's mom sat a bowl on his head and cut around it. 😆 But obviously some owners like this look.

[@luvladydi]

Excellent! Thank you so much! It is the perfect cute I like for my maltipoo & my cavachon! So very cute!

[@laurenebrown]

My puppy is 9 months old she got matted hair how do they make sure they don't hurt her

[@laurenebrown]

She had her first haircut and she did well but I'm afraid she's going to move around because of the cutters

[@christineHoxsey]

Thanks you make it look so easy!❤

[@j.p.674]

He is such a good boy

[@dharambohara778]

You are a best groomer madam

[@JenieJaneTvOfficial679]

awesome tutorial for grooming a dog

[@judyschantz3093]

Great job. So helpful 😊. Bravo.

[@patnoreen]

Wow! I've watched many tutorials, but this was demonstrated & explained in a much easier easy to follow instruction! Slower pace, and repetition of important steps & tips were very helpful! Love the finished result, and I feel I can now do a better DIY on my Havenese, which you mentioned was a very similar style. Thank you very much! It would also be nice to know your first name, if willing to provide, you are so pleasant to watch! :-)

[@KarenBanjo]

YES! What Patricia said.

[@tommatthews705]

wow! what a cute! beautiful, I must say, very professional looking! I like the way she used the scissors around the paws just perfect. very good looking with a winning look at the end !!Excellent!

[@sarahidalgo3769]

I really like it this tutorial, better than others

[@sophiemarshall8135]

He seems to enjoy it!

[@KarlaIrwin-q3h]

Great video thank you

[@ericavergara3345]

You make it look so simple! The problem is my Maltese hates baths and grooming lol. Will be cutting his hair on my own for the first time today let’s see how it goes 😬

[@annieyue9184]

Thank you for your excellent demonstration.

[@elainelapointe4738]

I watched this whole video and learned so much. I can't afford to take my dog to the Groomer too often and I feel like I can try some upkeep on my own. Thank you and that pup was so cooperative and of course, so adorable 😍 I just want to mention there was a lot of distracting background noise all through the video of something probably hitting the video maker???

[@Counselangel13]

Love your work!

[@carinakaarli4784]

Great tutorial, now i only need to train my puppy to stand still long enough.

[@theresachrarles9152]

Great work of art .I love it.

[@alicetooker7182]

GREAT JOB!!!!

[@ashusky]

Thanks for this video, you are amazing.

[@vatech90]

Thank you for such a great video. I have two Maltese and we like to keep them looking well groomed. It’s just not economical to run to the groomers every week or two to have them freshened up.

[@Arcenia13]

Beautiful talent!

[@TeeLee919]

That was an amazing tutorial! Thank you!!

[@joycemcculloch9505]

Very helpful

[@tmingng]

I hate this video. It's made so well with such detailed instructions but the only thing it is missing is informing the viewer that you need good hand/eye coordination which I'm missing. This is probably the best tutorial on how to puppy cut a Maltese dog on the internet. I just hate it because I still suck at grooming. I'm lucky that my dog is so cute it doesn't matter how badly I cut her hair!

[@FluffyDogBreeds]

Well explained and so helpful

[@dadandsoladventures3111]

Wow. He is just months old. My maltese is 8 years old, and she didn't grow like that big. She is 1.9 kilos she is so timid and always sleeps and is easy to get tired of walking in the park. He is so well-behaved and cute.

[@nataliajuarez5708]

Thank you! This is so helpful

[@linda85853]

Great job

[@Julie-rc7wl]

Wonderful job on the video angles!

[@megrandmomjean5019]

What a great dog! The cut is adorable :)

[@toosjepetticoat3203]

Very Good, you are vers handy with cutting or grooming 👏🏾👍🏾

[@khuszar6778]

Very helpful. Thanks!

[@sharikarinen6351]

Smart boy Nurf!!!😅❤

[@kathrynchanney3872]

did a great job very detailed

[@texasfueledfit1670]

Thank you I will give it a try!

[@ashleyloves93]

He looks just like my maltipoos. 😍🥰

[@kathymorway7945]

You make it look so easy. I attempted to trim my Maltese yesterday and she is a choppy mess. Is there something I can do to correct the cut?

[@leahzalz4940]

THANK YOU! AWESOME!

[@bettywyer]

This is one good Maltese. How old is he? My Maltese would be fighting it the whole time

[@pharvey2561]

She said 10 months.

[@andie3131]

Mine to. I come searching for how to brush without getting bit lol. Mine will put u with her head and back but will snap near but and legs sometimes not always but makes me always scared lol.

[@karenslaughing]

Mine too- she is SOO sensitive to combing and hates being trimmed. Even with extra gentleness and care she fights. I try giving her treats after she lets me comb her but she still hated seeing the brush and scissors…

[@vivianruiz9218]

So is mine!

[@cybermiss1]

9 months old

[@JRCars]

I love my lil guy

[@sugamomma8795]

Amazing video! Thank you 🙂

[@kurtmruniquetyson4314]

Greatjob

[@daverobbins7401]

What is the name of the grooming kit you are using

[@vahquqqkabajqoqp7255]

How do you keep the eyes so clean

[@beata8605]

Beautiful😍🤗💖👍super

[@patriciamoffitt1058]

I enjoyed watching your demonstration on how to groom a maltese. My dog is a yorkiepoo and her coat is a cream color and has a cottony texture. If grown out she looks like a miniature sheep dog. Her coat is not silky like a Maltese. Any tips on what type of cut and length would look good on her as well as what type of shampoo and conditioner would help the texture of her coat? I am grooming her myself and keep her cut short but would like a better cut for her. Thanks for posting your video.

[@DidiV919]

I'm wondering how to do the paw pads and private area without the protective guard on the clippers.

[@clairewheeler9828]

Thanks

[@fedorovagalina8020]

Great job! thanks a lot!!!

[@theband9094]

Thank you 👍👍

[@donnatrask9782]

Please show how you are holds the clippers.

[@darlenekissel7206]

Absolutely love your video .what size attached comb did you use? Thank you

[@bigsistermaria5578]

BTW you have beautiful hair
