Rounded Foot

Wow... this is just perfection!!! Such beautiful paws on that gorgeous dog! I have an American Cocker Spaniel and I have watched your two Cocker grooming videos, as I have been learning to groom him myself at home. I have taken your great tips and have been trying to apply them to my grooming but, I am far from greatness!!! Now, I will have to try to do his paws just like this here!!! Thank you so much for your videos! They are very precise and extremely well explained! You are a great groomer! And, you have a wonderful sense of humour !!!🐶🐾🥰

Ok Michelle, this is great. But can we get this tutorial on a bigger and/or heavier doggo, one that doesn’t tolerate having its paws held like that. ESPECIALLY on rear paws, when the dog acts like it doesn’t have 3 other legs/feet to balance on, and the lead butt kicks in? Cause I was excited to use this tutorial on my giant doodle yesterday, but then he did ALL of that. So the tutorial all when out the window, and I just had to do what I could. 😩

Isn’t it always the way?! 😊 Let me see who is spicy this week and see if I can get that for you! All our client dogs learn spicy isn’t the way to go, so we don’t have a ton. But I’ve got it on my list now!

@@TheInformedGroomer-kf6wv thank you! Doesn’t have to be immediately, but whenever you can. This particular dog wasn’t spicy/naughty. Just very putzy. The kind of dog you have to lift the opposite leg up in the air so you can scissor or clipper the one you’re working on. And then he just likes to collaps onto his hip when I pick up a back leg. A lot of dogs we see can be like this, despite how hard we try to work those behaviors out of them. 🤦🏻‍♀️
