Perfect Toy Poodle by Jonathan David

[@xtri0xinx]

I wish Jonathan David had a regular live feed of his grooming. I could watch his grooming for hours!

[@jessicamartinez1333]

xTRIOXINx that’s what I’m saying! 👩🏽‍💻

[@georgiegingersnap8129]

That hanging neck harness is completely standard for the industry. It's not choking her around her neck, but rather, lifts and stabilizes head, jaw and even her body so groomer can more efficiently finish the job, and not risk accidentally poking her eyes or mouth as he works. He's very gentle. If he weren't, she'd let him know. Poodles don't silently suffer, as a rule. Poodles must be groomed, or their hair continues to grow forever, just like human hair. It can tangle and mat and cause circulation problems of the skin if left untended.

um dia chego esse nivel

[@squeakymousedragon8006]

The neck lead is a safety feature as well, it prevents her from trying to jump off the table. Poodles do not naturally just relax there and let you do whatever you want, they have minds of their own. Sometimes they get antsy and they're smart enough to try to figure out how to escape if you let them. My little guy will happily debate whether or not he's done if allowed to. When he was a puppy I was using my kitchen counter and he jumped down and landed right on his head... The neck lead is important. It doesn't hurt them, it just corrects them if they decide to be stupid about it...

[@tayannarenee8166]

he is just adjusting her weight it's not as harsh as it looks, he is actually very gentle. If she isn't stacked properly the cut won't be right.

[@claudiaharlow9713]

This may look harsh, but in reality it isnt. First of all, these dogs are bred for this and are quite used to it to begin with. Shaking his or her head slightly not only shakes off the excess hair, but also encourages them to stay still (if they move, you risk cutting their skin). I also slightly shake the head when grooming as it really does encourage the dog to stop moving and as stated before, it shakes off excess hair. He is actually being really gentle with the dog in how he handles it, and this dog is clearly VERY used to it.

Thank you for uploading the video on how to cut miniature poodle dog hair

[@tamarag5188]

Outstanding cut, and only took 20 min !! Bravo !

[@robinshutze4375]

I want to learn how to make my standard look like this cut. I love it. He is so talented.

[@emmanuelaguilar8808]

Jonathan is the best ❤️😍

[@CeeBee12305]

One of the BEST Poodle grooming Techniques, You ROCK Thanks!

[@billabsher4306]

Outstanding! Thank You.

[@schatzieme2]

Beautiful job of grooming!

[@rharesh4451]

Looks adorable

[@aplusbeauty]

For all non groomers commenting, I know that this may look stressful for the dog, but in reality it's better for the dog to be standing still and stable rather than giving him/her too much freedom so they can jump all over the table and endanger themselves around the scissors. If you look closely you can see this doggy is actually falling asleep at many points :) if he were to talk to the dog excessively it may make the dog feel like he SHOULD be concerned since the groomer was trying to console him so much. Every doggy is different and responds to different treatment

[@Cherry138]

spectacular, great inspiration, thanks

[@GYPSYSOULJOURNALS]

wow this guy is awesome , and you non groomers really dont get it you people really need to get a grip this guy is doiing an awesome job you dont play with dogs when you groomthem try hand scissoring on your own dog you might want to use prescool scissors or you would probably hurt your dog bad .. That dog has been on a grooming table since he was 6 weeks old he is used to this im sure this dog doesnt need a noose however there are rules on safety for the animal .would u rather he fell offf the table and crack his head open.. Btw the noose is not tight if it were the dog would have been gagging!!!

[@JoUnrau]

I've had dogs all my life, groomed my own & my family bred & raised Scotch Collies. I use blunt nose scissors for some things, face, etc. but this guy cares more about showing off his skill than the dog.

[@713ShootingStar]

Grooming your own pet dogs does not make you an expert at grooming. He's being very gentile and the dog is relaxed. If she wasn't you'd know!

[@ashleyh4699]

Lisa frumenti He's trying to do a demo! The dog is fine. It's used to being groomed. He can't be spending endless amounts of time cuddling the dog. Jesus fucking christ.

[@vickizapp6165]

Lisa frumenti

[@jamesgreg5542]

"Prescool"?? Don't run with your scissors, Lisa!

[@freebirdchile2935]

Nice work dude Thanks!!

[@tayannarenee8166]

she looks amazing though, like his work is amazing.

[@mmatthews8247]

I’m an annoying groomer. I’m always talking to the dogs. Great video to watch for getting the most out of a groom for pet grooms

[@Coco-yo8cy]

I love it .

[@james13602]

I will try this on my funny looking poodle

[@zorrouk1]

This video is so good and informative. Well done, Top Job. Could you please recommend poodle products , shampoo , spray, conditioner etc. Thanks.

[@ramilduma9964]

thanks for the idea...

[@sarahpetersen6576]

Gorgeous

[@nolivlogs648]

Great job sir 👌

[@morgannelson884]

Are your convex and semi convex shears part of your line?

[@flutterbydragonfly]

What brand of shears are you using? Beautiful work!

[@DeniseNY1]

Jonathan David uses Kenchii shears. Great shears and a great company to work with! Love my Kenchiis!

[@LuisSanchez-jt7id]

muy bueno gracias

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Thanks for posting! Enjoyed watching a pro groomer and his artistry, I have a mini poodle so wanted to know the technical aspects. Although I do a pet trim which is more comfortable for the poodle. Poor poodle! It used to be a sporting breed created by the Germans so got to go out wading in water and nature hikes, till the French got hold of it and turned it into a dog topiary. Now it is viewed as a chi chi dog not a sporting breed!

[@squeakymousedragon8006]

Yeah my toy has super ticklish feet, he would pull right out of that lol. He stands beautifully for everything else but once you get to the feet he's a problem child.

[@jessicamartinez1333]

So exactly how long does it take to groom a toy poodle in total??

[@pawsdelightgroomingkarenmo7179]

How long does it take to do a cut like this hand scissering?

[@intruda119]

Im going to use the foot off the table trick. Thanks

[@boardification]

Very nice

[@georginabarboutis5856]

What size scissors are those used?

[@AmbiCahira]

This guy is great at what he does! But tugging on the head like that will affect her neck arthritis when old, dogs have surprisingly sensitive necks when it comes to developing arthritis so just watch out with that. A dog with neck pain or any other arthritis pain hurts your heart I promise. So care for them when young because it will catch up with them.

[@pawsdelightgroomingkarenmo7179]

How long start to finish to do

[@user-ww4fl6jz7z]

전기톱이 연상되는 형님이 가위잡고 애견미용이라니 엌ㅋㅋㅋ

[@sarahxedis331]

what was the name of the thinning shears he uses?

[@ashleyh4699]

Sarah Xedis They are his own line. Kenchi Lightening. Soooo expensive, but I need them!

[@Tamali23]

What Brand and Type of Spray is he using?

[@KarissaGraymoon]

It looks like it's Hair Raiser which is made by Nature's Specialties. It helps the hair stay standing up for the hair cut. Though, with only seeing the back of bottle, it's hard to tell. I'm fairly certain that's the type of spray it is though, something to help the hair stand up.

[@ClaudiaVieiraCruz]

Tadinho...com certeza queria estar correndo e rolando....

[@marthaliddick8323]

does anyone know what show that is?

[@kellieinman5138]

It was the Atlanta Pet Fair

[@NiangoChan]

amazing

[@feathersong5838]

If these groomers didn't care about their dogs they wouldn't spend hours grooming them just right. Nothing is worse to a groomer than when you bring a matted dog into their shop and claim you brushed it every day.

[@Stella-mn1ro]

Faccio anche io questo lavoro, ma penso che i cani da esposizione facciano una vita triste.

[@stanglova86]

this toy poodle looks big more like miniature poodle

[@ofrisingstar3579]

And I bought a kenchii shear, she don't work.

[@wintersvixen1983]

I’m not a fan either I have one and it doesn’t thin great I prefer my Yamato or shark fin thinners

[@lornamurdocheaton624]

He's obviously skilled but I agree he treats the dog like an object, also she's tied too short.

[@kbeaty0111]

Lorna Murdoch Eaton there is plenty of slack in the Groomer's loop!

[@japananimationhoni]

가위밥 존나 나는데 ㅋㅋㅋ

[@Gaby74237]

Why does that guy keeps shaking that poor dog?

[@FuzzyBunny515]

to see if hair falls it's not hurting the dog.

[@matiasbogado7881]

Lo manipula como a una cosa...

[@florencekalma5629]

h

[@florencekalma5629]

Just gorgeous!

[@lobimgamer-ky2bg]

no no no

[@carlaiello1993]

Whatever

[@Me-sf3zm]

it's not some fucking doll. be carefull

[@GYPSYSOULJOURNALS]

moron

[@chrisbrewin4]

Just returned from a frozen woods after a long walk where my poodle has been running, diving into deep patches of oak leaves and pushing into muddy streams , find your video distasteful

[@JoUnrau]

Does an attractive cut but no compassion or empathy.

[@GYPSYSOULJOURNALS]

compassion for what?? what are you talking about

[@JoUnrau]

If you can't see I don't know how anyone can explain it to you. He's rough, & doesn't care how the dog feels, just how good he looks. I'd rather do it all myself than have my precious baby treated like that. My groomer is more patient & kind & does a great job too.

[@FuzzyBunny515]

+Jo. Unrau you must not be a groomer if you think this is rough.

[@GYPSYSOULJOURNALS]

you havent got a clue what your talking about .. Again he is an Awesome groomer and knows exactly what hes doing, and he does it very well!!! Bravo

[@Foxychew]

You don't get to be a master like David without caring about the animals. if it weren't for them us groomers would not exist. Caring about the dogs welfare is the exact definition of what we do. There are plenty of videos on KZbin with groomers who beat and torture dogs....maybe you should direct your energy towards those.

[@robinwimberly6504]

The constant shaking her head is NOT necessary!

[@MissSaintG]

The reason he's doing it is because he wants to see where the hair sits naturally. Every time you make a cut with your scissors you're pushing down some hair or pushing it out of the way. By doing that little shake he's getting the hair to fall back into its natural place. It's not rough. It doesn't hurt the dog. They know they're not being punished. It's a common tench unique that a lot of groomers use. He's not being mean.
