Man, although her parents didn't groom her well, they sure didn't skip a single step at training her. She's so well behaved. What a little angel

[@CHRISFREE84]

She has been growing before something could happen It don't take long for Yorkiepoo Hair to grow

[@arallen8]

@@CHRISFREE84 you are correct . They have more hair and not fur. Hair mats quickly

[@wubblebubble9899]

This was the best behaved dog!! Lifting her head up so you could do her chin.. she loved this spa day.!! Great job!!!👍

[@methuseluhh]

That is such a good yorkie. Trying to help you by lifting her legs and everything.

[@CraziiKay91]

methuseluhh yes very calm dog

[@methuseluhh]

I haven't been a yorkie fan but she has redeemed my respect for the breed. She's a really good girl.

[@kshirr2]

i noticed that too!

[@DandyinDistress]

methuseluhh Yeah, she’s like: “Finally, someone who will help me. Thank you, oh merciful hooman!”

[@Pablo_Dallas]

my yorkie does the same thing when I'm trying to cut around her eyes and turns to me. Also when I'm washing her legs and rinsing her off she lifts each leg for me lol

[@baylaschauer3122]

I have no intentions of ever being a dog groomer, but I could watch you for hours!

This dog is a pure angel! I can't believe how good she was!!❤️ She looks like my daughter's Morky who is a pure wiggle worm. Never would he is been this good.

[@shellibingle7793]

She’s so well behaved like “just please get this hair off me!”

[@tammymossholder1058]

I wish my Yorkie was that good for me when I groom him.

[@luciusmaximus1169]

She looks so beautiful. It's a shame she was matted to begin with

[@marilynabernathy7090]

I will be a new Yorkie owner and this was so interesting. I will never let mine get so matted(never say never) but I learned so much.

[@Strawberrycherriess]

I bath/brush my yorkie Weekly/every other day and he still gets little mats here and there (long hair + outside daily)!!! So I know how tedious it is… and enough with the owner shaming because it’s hard out here for a pimp lol 😂

[@siungai4033]

[@barbaracubert4782]

I agree !!

[@Songs-ts1ps]

Couldn't agree more! A bad owner won't put a jersey on their doggie and bring them to the groomers. Most people are doing the best they can

[@user-wc9kw5cd5p]

Yes! I usually take my Yorkie's sweater off daily to brush her out, but if I skip a day or two, the matting gets bad quickly. And, she needs a sweater because Yorkie's don't have fur to keep them warm in the wintertime.

[@janetread2138]

Beautiful job. I wish my yorkie was that calm......

[@lindajones4365]

I LOVED how she lifted her little chin when she knew you were going to shave her there. Also...... did I see her lift her paw to you when you were reaching for it??? What a well-behaved and cute as a button dog!!!!

[@delilahcannady8789]

You have made me have more respect than ever for groomers, I never knew how difficult it could be. You are awesome and hats off to you and all groomers, we need more like you in this business , I just wish we lived closer I would definitely bring my baby to you. Thanks for all you do and may God bless you !

[@robinpinkham9398]

With being a pet parent of multiple shihtzus( and a yorkie) I am truly appalled that these pet parents aren't educated enough to do just every day maintenance on thier babies!! I mean it's common sense. I'm just shaking my head in disbelief. Thank goodness for people like you with the patience and grace to deal graciously with the parents and help the fur babe not to be miserable!! You are amazing!!!

[@paulamason626]

I just don't understand. My morkie Dexter does not like to be brushed but I still wrangle him up and brush him. My biggest fear is him getting matted up like some of the rescues I have seen on tv.

[@robobin]

You honestly think people have common sense? We're an idiot creature. We don't think about anything we do. I'm shocked that you're shocked that most of the world is uneducated in this kind of thing. I think dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and other pets all cost way too little and require next to no brain cells to acquire. (I'm a rabbit owner, you wouldn't believe how many people are idiots out there who own rabbits) People need more training, that's all. if Dede can educate people on how to maintain their pets, then all the power to her. Same can be said about kids, come to think of it. People pop them out then ignore. We're just a garbage species, through and through.

[@vdoniel]

robin pinkham Right on! I'm smh saying, "Another matted mess!" Good grief owners what is your problem!?

[@4UStevePerry]

I totally agree with all of you. I watch all these grooming videos not just Dedes and am appalled at how many of them that have owners who do this. If you don't the want the responsibility of a long haired dog then don't get one. This is cruel to the dog and abusive. Because they can't say mom or dad, please brush me. Would you do this to your daughters. Mine would Scream every morning, but it had to get done. And the same thing with the dog. There are plenty of short haired dogs out there all im Saying

[@cookiedupuis]

When grooming a matted Yorkie do you bathe them first and then use the electric trimmer? Where can I find more information about your stand up helper, our Yorkies have knee problems. I agree 100% with what you are saying about manufacturing in the USA, I am in Canada and buy if made here and my next choice is always USA!

[@pamwilkinson4302]

What a cutie and perfect behavior.

[@tammy-lynnstewart5677]

She did really good! I bet though she knows you're helping her & it HAS to feel GOOD getting those matts off!

[@marykantor4692]

What a nice calm dog!

[@beckywagner3973]

Thank you for sharing this, I find it very helpful. Lily is a saint, none of my three Silkys would have been that cooperative. I only wish that you had praised her more often for her good behavior.

[@Geek.Productions]

Wow, that satisfaction when you begin taking all of that matted hair off with the clippers. That poor thing- hopefully it provides insta-relief!

[@carolstanley5521]

I love the way she holds her head back so you can work under her chin.

[@Neofizz]

Thanks for transforming what looked like an oversized river rat into a beautiful puppy! Nice job.

Okay, I just cannot get over how ADORABLE and SWEET this little girl is!! 😍😘😙😚❤❤❤❤ I've never seen a more calm and co-operative pupper!! Lifting her leg and everything, trying to help the groomer 😍 I'd have a real hard time resisting the urge to take her in my arms and run away, if I was her groomer 😂

[@MildredCady]

She is such a sweet helpful girl! I hope she feels much better with those mats off. I think she must have been groomed regularly in the past… because she seems to be anticipating how to help Dede.

[@DarrylsB]

Thanks! Enjoyed watching the transformation of the matted Yorkie. It's hard getting on my groomer's schedule, now I appreciate even more the skill and care you all have for our furry family members.

[@kshirr2]

what a good, sweet, cooperative doggie! cutie too

[@aquariusnation2722]

She was so well behaved. ❤

[@gailanthony1354]

She looks like she's enjoying being groomed.

[@sheeats.]

Gail anthony she looked so scared she was shaking wtf

[@rosya4102]

No I agree with Gail Anthony, the dog was lifting her neck up and was probably enjoying the feeling of removing the itchy matted hair.

[@zionneal1088]

Wasn't she whining though?

[@DancingwithLadybugs]

I can't believe how well behaved the dog was. You were wonderful.

[@ccccarriemchardy9216]

I hope the pets parents learn from you and start brushing this sweet, good nature'd baby.

[@wandaknable3780]

Such a well behaved puppy and thanks for the heads up on taking the hair bow out daily when you brush her daily didn't realize her sweaters were matting her. What a great 👍 dog groomer✂✂✂ 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

[@princessjanmar9893]

You are such a good groomer.

[@tinalouiseking]

My groomer deserves every dime she makes and then some... I tried grooming my dog it took me three days🙄

[@Corinat774]

T K lol I was hoping to try grooming my yorkie 😄

[@lorybaker8625]

I have nothing to do with dog grooming - but I honestly love these videos so much. I love what you do! Thanks for sharing Dede x

[@solitairesmith3553]

What a sweet dog! I love how you honestly tell the parents that its too painful to try to brush out those kind of mats. :)

[@solitairesmith3553]

That haircut is adorable on her:)

[@Bekkenes]

Such a calm and polite dog :)

[@ZarachielL2]

She looks soooo much better! Good job Dede!

[@leticiac52]

I know that dog is happier. Hallelujah🙌

[@corralup1]

What a sweetheart she was for you!

[@user-of5mu3vn8w]

She is super adorable...what a precious baby

[@justtere]

I recently had a Yorkie who needed to be rescued when her owner died unexpectedly. He isn’t this bad, but close. When he gets to the groomer, I will not complain about the price. Rocky is a jumping bean and I can’t imagine he will be this still. His previous owner did keep him groomed until he got sick, so maybe he will. Thank you.

[@PincheMigs]

She did such a good job!! Can't wait to order from you soon. :)

[@jennpiach]

Ahhhh shes so good. I cant beleive how compliant she is. So cute❣ her ears alittle uneven.

[@carmenfrazier3958]

You did a beautiful job. I know that the puppy is very happy.

[@PsycheDismantled]

LOL, she sounds like she's about to call CPS. Anyway it's starting to seem like I got the only Yorkie that doesn't behave herself. She does NOT like the brush or the buzzer.

[@nototay1281]

FountainOf Light That describes most all yorkies LOL Grooming every 5-6 weeks helps get them over it

[@dekeidrabrigham-jones127]

Nope my Yorkie. Will not stay still. The vet said if you start brushing him early so he will get used to. Huh. Where?? He’s 1 year still acts a fool.

[@Sparky-dr1ii]

Cute. She's one patient dog. Her coat reminds me of a party poodle. Coat color.

[@gaylejones6086]

You are an experienced groomer and a patient one too. Thank you for being so loving to this sweet yorkie as she definitely needed your help. I get my baby groomed regularly and yes a Yorkies hair can get out of hand quickly if not tended to daily. I enjoyed your video.

[@patriciasizemore6196]

What a precious Little fur baby . You did wonderful on making her look beautiful again .

[@gloriacatalano6006]

Oh my and she’s such a good little dog too , Bless her heart ❤️

[@NinasHere4U]

That yorkie was amazing, mine is so aggressive during any grooming

[@redrose-wb4bw]

I could watch dog grooms by Dede all day long. You always do the really hard cases and turn out beautiful dogs after. I think clothes only work on freshly groomed dogs, not on a matted overgrown mess like that poor girl. Bless you Dede, you are a dog send to these dogs and their owners.

[@danidarkoxo]

Such a sweet and compliant pup!! My mother took my Yorkie away from me a year ago and leaves my poor baby so matted, it disgusts me. I’m so glad to see I wasn’t wrong in telling her to groom my girl’s fur better. If only I could get her back :( Keep educating and doing what you do! ❤️

[@LindaMcQu]

Hi Dede. I groom my own dog. She is a mix of 5 breeds, Poodle, Pug, Chihuahua, Doxie, and Terrier. She looks like a miniature Golden Retriever. Anyway, I have learned so much on how to groom her, from watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. No you didn't get me because the dog didn't react. Nice try though. 😉 The furbaby is such a good girl! She did amazing! I hope she got extra lovies for being so good. It fascinates me how the disposition changes as soon as the matted mess is mostly removed. They know you are there to make them feel better. Yes! Loved the look of the cut. Spot on!

[@neuronudgie]

Dede, you're an artist!

[@simonicorrea3247]

Dede i love everything you do with dogs it’s a pleasure watching you 😍 I want asking you if it’s possible you also write what kind blades and clippers you use? Also I want to know where I can get that brush

[@judithdavis9191]

Yes, I can handle my Yorkie. They are such a cute, smart dog.

[@jessgenesis1]

Love this video more than all the others only because of the breed of dog - you are right it isn’t a complete Yorkie breed it’s a Silky Terrier which 99% of the time people just call it a Yorkie. I have a Silky Terrier and he has a shorter cut as well and his hair is extremely soft! They have the cute floppy ears too where as a Yorkie has pointed upright ears. Love your videos💕

[@blueysmommatpaz6588]

Thank you for your service ✌

[@heyheyheyhi]

Girl, I have been watching your videos ALL DAMN DAY. You are so great at what you do! 💕

[@cathydavis210]

[@carolinegammage4598]

What!!! 😲 lolol.. You had me, you got me ha ha thanks for the video. I always have such admiration for your grooming sessions and today you polished the rough looking dog into a princess😃😄 thanks Dede

[@myfavoritegroomer]

hahahaha, I love it!

[@novrandy20]

I’m a barber with two Maltese and I must say grooming a dog is so difficult. This dog did an amazing job. Btw I love watching your videos...they are so soothing to watch idky lol but definitely learning a lot thanks

[@slimsonite2111]

I wish all groomers were this nice! I know it's a tough job, but I'm here to learn how to do it myself because THREE different grooming places now have returned my lil sweetie to me with a gash in his armpit. Not a word to me about it. Not one of them. Found it when I got home. And one of them, upon my return at the allotted time to pick him up, realized they forgot he was there! I actually gave them a second chance. No more trauma for my guy! Now, the trauma will be on me (I'm terrified to hurt him).

[@ebikerforlife]

That’s a good little pup, I keep mine summer cut and put shirts on him. He looks adorable and he loves his shirts. You didi a great job.

[@insidiouschaos812]

I don't understand people who don't brush long haired dogs. Like you brush your own hair every day why doesn't your dog deserve the same treatment

[@debibarrington8348]

insidiousChaos i have three yorkis and always groomed them myself as i cant afford groomers on a fixed income . they never had mats until this year, my son passed, and you know what some days im too depressed to be as meticulous with my dogs, at least this woman could afford help. Judging doesnt help, people maybe in a despairing place ' if your not , you will be one day.

[@preciouspayne7376]

Debi Barrington exactly what I was going to say. I adore my dog and also happen to struggle immensely with depression. I was so isolated I wouldn’t even brush my own hair for months. My dog also suffered but she was never matter to the point of dreads. Matter in some areas. It’s easy for people to assume laziness is the problem but not always. Dogs are forgiving and understanding creatures and know when you’re struggling. I’ve now started looking after my dog regularly and even started to learn how to groom myself. It’s given me a reason to get out of the house and benefits my baby. Hope you’re well and aren’t suffering too badly. It’s been a year but pain lasts unfortunately. X

[@denaadams6818]

Watching you is just such a treat. She looks beautiful. Poor baby. What a mess she was. You make it look so easy and I know better. You are artistic in your style.

[@annav.d4766]

What a precious baby I am so happy and relieved that she is feeling a tons better thanks to you! I admire your work so much ❤️

[@enidfiluk9938]

I have only just starting watching your blogs , wow just love the way you are with the Dogs and Cats . I lost my baby a few months ago , these videos fill a hole in my heart . Even though they can be sad , l luv seeing the end results Thank You so much from Victoria Australia ❤️

[@bihtersomer3832]

Poor little baby. Such a great doggie. Honestly she deserves more gentle and calmer handling.

[@karoolajna28]

yeah, Dede is usually a bit rougher than she needs to be. Its like she's angry at owners, but she punishes a dog instead

[@karoolajna28]

but still, i love watching her videos, she's super professional ;)

[@petrailani]

Ya'll act like the woman is in there with a taser! Jezz! 🙄The damn dog didn't make a peep,And ya'll ready to call Peta.

You were so gentle and loving with that adorable furbaby!! I wish all groomers were like you❣️

[@PyroBlitz]

This is such a good patient dog it is obvious she loves the grooming.

[@dianeburtnett528]

That long hair left on the ears has got to go. It makes her look unfinished. I never let my yorkies leave the groomer like that.

[@gurvinka]

Absolutely agree with you

[@sunnybella12]

Why not finish the head?

[@goldensilky1]

[@Channel4PrettyGirls]

She’s a real lady💅🏾💅🏾💅🏾

[@xahe7610]

May I ask, did you wrap your clipper cable with something and would you recommend doing that to other groomers? I recently got those clippers and now have heard that they tend to have a problematic cable

[@myfavoritegroomer]

agreed, the wrapped cable in less than 2 weeks my cord needs replaced. It's a great option, but plan to get a new cable. It's a lot of twisting and I think that weakens the cable. Also, if you don't put the twis all the way up the clipper you may have issues, I'll do a video on this for you. But, the twis does help if wrapped tightly. Give or take you know. I hate my cord!

[@magdalinejackson954]

Such a sweet doggie. She seems to trust you completely. I have a Yorkie now and he is so scared of scissors. I was trying to cut some of his facial hair and he fought me like crazy. He was only about 6 months old.

[@tdmartin73]

BTW this dog is well behaved I am impressed with this being it’s her first time being groomed.

[@donnasmith5727]

She is a cute little doggie 🐶

[@dldeantx]

She is such a good girl. It would be wonderful if more pets took to grooming as good as this

[@CleanGoodies]

That pup was behaving well, because of the special attention to grooming. It was as if the puppy enjoyed every moment of being brushed, massaged, and pampered. Probably felt relieved by losing weight all that hair!

[@jackieheaney5776]

I am not a dog groomer but I love animals and I watch you every day I also tell my friends to watch you and I have a friend that’s a dog groomer and she’s only just starting out so I have told all her about you . I asked her to watch you because I think you’re brilliant with the dogs and you’re really fast and caring with your animals which is so important.Just to let you know I am in England

[@TheBettyBoopnl]

Too much length left on the ears I love it when my girl has a teddy bear face, where is her tail ?

[@steady48]

That's what I wondered...I don't like removing tails.....

[@marieomahoney365]

wendy Taylor I was thinking the same thing, where is her tail. I have a yorkie, you don’t leave the hair in the ears long. I don’t think she is a full yorkie. Don’t tell me they had her tail docked if she is. Poor little sweetie

[@A10TOES]

Wendy-when I adopted my Yorkie/Pom she was 10 months old, the previous owner had her tail docked, Now get this, I also have a cocker spaniel & she has a tail!!! LOL Vets done't like to dock tails anymore, but I am sure there's still vets out there in it for the money only & would do it. That goes for dogs ears too.

[@40083svene]

The ears should be tipped like a scotty and use thinning shears around the ears and face. Watch petgrooming on KZbin she's from Poland

[@ngo7156]

You got me Dede! lol The dog has a fresh start now. I feel like you definitely built a lot of trust in that cute dog. Great job! ; )

[@myfavoritegroomer]

hahaha, just adore you!

[@crystalfabulous]

Beautiful job Dede the up stand is a fabulous thing to own

[@sondrantom]

Such a good well behaved baby dog! My yorkie boy would not be that still at all!

[@simonalyneenderz3247]

Poor gal, looked like an alien on her back. You couldn't even see her tail. What a sweet girl.

[@Bunchee032]

My god she is so freaking cute & well behaved. I don’t know how you don’t take your mask off to give her kisses 😘😘😘😘. And then take her home with you. I personally like the summer cut look on Yorkies, but she has such beautiful hair that she probably looks stunning with a nice medium hair length.

[@sarahewson3607]

I just rescued a yorkie about a month ago, he’s about a year old and quite rambunctious. I’m very nervous about having him groomed but he needs it. He just can’t seem to sit still for very long, although he absolutely loves getting brushed!

[@sharonglover1412]

It really hurts my heart to see dogs in this state you have such patience and are very careing lady

[@Sparky-dr1ii]

I have a question. Can you please explain what you mean when you say 10, 7, 40, etc.

[@sammivalencia9976]

Christina Owens they are different blades

[@myfavoritegroomer]

I'll do a video for you on this, watch for it.

[@joanofarc33]

I’m not a groomer but a fur momma with a show dog quality Maltese in full coat and after years of grooming her I can tell you that I could have gotten those matt’s out without shaving her though it would have taken a long time to do, longer than the usual time allotted a groomer in her shop.

[@topperhatschire]

No one cares

[@stampinturtles]

She’s being awesome!!! Such a trooper with all of it. I just got a yorkie and have taken it to the groomer once. Need to do it again since it’s been almost two months. I don’t think I have the best comb/brush so I’m watching videos to see if I should be doing something different. I don’t want my baby to get matted. Thank you for taking such good care of this sweetie.

[@genevapalmer4237]

I bet she's say Thank you, this has been a long time coming. She's so Sweet. All that matted hair on such a Cutie. Comb & brush her hair every Day
