Grooming Your Schnauzer Part 1/Back and Sides

[@julesa245]

I learnt how to groom my schnauzer benjamin watching this video. He is so like Miggy. I was so sad to hear about Miggy. 💓

[@MaxBialystoclk515]

The best dog period.

[@rrjohn5]

Awwwww🥰🥹 Mozzie Man and The Migster! Watching this in Sept of 24. Although i live a thousand miles away, I feel like I knew then. I’m so sorry for their passing. This is the only flaw our pets have. They always leave us too soon. Hugs!

[@kbobsled]

My mini is 1.5 years and an absolute nightmare at the groomer (we’ve been kicked out of two). I think I e decided to just do it myself - he’ll for sure have a few weird haircuts, but if we can chip away at it at our speed it’s going to make it so much easier in both of us! So glad to have found your home haircut how-tos!

[@Xp3erynce]

Hi from Michigan too!! Your pooches are beautiful. Great job!

[@robintyree8845]

I would like to tysm for the time u took to make these videos. For the first time I can say I am proud of home my Rowdy boy turned out. Your fur babies are beautiful.

[@mrgma98]

we have a 10 Year old Schnauzer since 10/01/16. Her name was Marla but she never responded to it. I changed it to Pepper and she must have liked it, as responded immediately! She had been returned from being adopted, I think because she had (has) attitude. she's learning manners and is being instructed by me and our 10 Year old Cockapoo, Bella. it was love at first sight.

[@Ingridv8x]

I am SO delighted to find a video of grooming a MS in exactly the way I like! Although my white MS has very fine hair and I shall be using an 7 or 8 blade (I loved your black-and-silver the length he was before you starting shaving, too), your method looks great. I have done my dog many times and am always struggling with the face in particular. I have also had him done many times by professional groomers, but somehow I have never found one that has experience with Schnauzers. So I am now looking forward to watching your next two videos - thanks you very much for your efforts to show your grooming. Kind regards from the UK x

[@SherryLC09]

Popping in to say, Thanks, again, Schnauzer Mom. I gave my Lucy her furcut today following your videos and it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be. It did turn out a bit too short but my clippers have the attachable combs and the comb fell off so I had to do her back and sides without the comb. Next time, which may be a good 6 months from now as short as it is (lol), I'll be more alert to the comb being on tight. Her eyebrows are a bit lopsided, too. I'm glad that Lucy was a good girl about it all. I learned a lot from the experience and I'm very grateful you did this grooming series. Looking forward to watching more of your boys' videos-they sure do make me smile!

[@SchnauzerMom]

+MrsSherry awesome, I'm glad you liked the grooming series. You may want to invest in a pair of clippers that you can change the size of the blade for the length you want instead of using a clipper with guards. It makes grooming much more easier.

[@SherryLC09]

Yeah, that's my thought, too, that it would be easier for both of us. Its a good investment, that's for sure.

[@anne-mariestevenson3296]

[@Myrvcleo_o]

Awwww omg I love my baby your babies are so cute I just wanna hug them omggg. My dog is pretty good and well behaved though.

[@tracyd1418]

I do the grooming for my female Mini who looks IDENTICAL to Miggy. In the winter I use a # 7 blade so she keeps a little fur to stay warm and in the summer I use a # 10 blade. I spent the extra money for the Oster Professional grade GOLDEN A5 trimmer and am very glad I did. I always use the higher speed though. The lower speed can not cut well enough. In the summer I trim her ears with a #30 blade to get them well shaved and I scissor the edges like you do. The dogs ears are part of their body's cooling system and keeping them closely shaved helps her in the heat. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH EARS. If you nick one they will bleed profusely (back to that cooling system for their body). I also don't shave the top of her nose because we like to have it be somewhat untamed. Looks very cute.

[@SchnauzerMom]

+Tracy Dent I don't shave the top of my boys noses either. Yes you do have to be very careful when cutting ears. I'm thinking of investing in a #30 blade soon. I recently got s #7 and love it. Thanks for watching.

And the paws, do you trim yours? Thanks so much!!! I'm so thankful that God led me to your videos!! 😊

[@SchnauzerMom]

So happy to hear the videos helped you out. It does take longer at first but you will get faster and more confident every time you groom her. I have a video on nail trimming, I'll link it below. I have not really done one on the legs but sometimes I will use scissors when I want to keep the leg hair long, and I use the clippers when I want to go short. when I clipper cut the legs I still have to go back through with the scissors and get the areas the clippers cant get very well. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKqtgoyQjdZ2ZtE

Hi! great video, really helping me figure out how to trim up my little schnauzer boy. Can i ask what type of clippers you use? I have a kit i bought at walmart, but it doesn't have different blades, just different level of blade guards. the lowest guard doesn't get his back short enough though, and if i take the guard off, the blade ends up getting him too short in patches... Im thinking maybe i just need a better(more professional level?) set of clippers.thanks!

[@valaraepfister5460]

I watched all of your videos and a few by a professional groomer (I liked yours better) and then attempted to groom our five month old white mini schnauzer. Two and a half hours (and many scratches) later little Zuzu is done. She doesn't look nearly as good as your adorable schnauzers, but I am satisfied. It took three of us to hold her to even attempt her head. I am going to have to invest in a Dog Up stand and a grooming table. I hope that it gets easier.

[@valaraepfister5460]

To see her, try #Zuzumuffin

[@SchnauzerMom]

I'm glad they were helpful. It does get easier. Maybe just do a little at a time instead of the whole groom at once until your baby is older 😊

[@paulaparker8784]

I have 2 mini schnauzers and just started grooming them myself. They are 10 & 12 yrs old and both started shaking when I pulled into the parking lot to drop them off for grooming for several months. I worried maybe someone who worked there did something to make them scared so I decided I could groom them and take breaks or spread out over a few days. The 10 yr old, Simon was a rescue and is the nervous one. I found your videos very helpful and I am still in a learning mode. They recently went for their check ups and the vet said they had too much hair in their ears. I thought I was doing the ears ok until I realized I need to go down farther so here is my question. Simon has a thick coat and lots of hair in the ear canal, do I need to clip until there isn’t any hair in the ear canal? Neither have had ear infections and Scottie the oldest doesn’t have a thick coat so I can use my round curved scissors and get all the hair cut in the canal. I really don’t want to pluck the hair because I am sure that would make Simon a nervous wreck. I watched your video again today for ears, your Miggie looks a lot like Simon including the amount of hair. So any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.

[@SchnauzerMom]

Do not put the scissors in the ear canal.

[@SchnauzerMom]

I think one of my videos shows how I trim the ears. Of not I will do one when I groom here in the next week or so. Also if your dog does not get ear infections there is no need to pluck the hair because then he may.

[@paulaparker8784]

Thank you so much....you did a video on ear grooming, not sure I could do this without watching your videos. With Simon when I saw all the hair I wasn’t sure how far I clip but now I will do it like you do. Love your boys, they are so cute and you do a great job sharing life with schnauzers.

Thank you 😊

She's doing it in her dining room!!!! I know, I know.........just watch the video. But I couldn't help thinking about all the fur flying around. I will not groom my puppy any where near my kitchen nor dining room. It's either outside (warm weather) or downstairs. I can't do it, just can't do it. Any way, thank you for the great video, I learned a lot. Just watch the video, just watch the video, just watch the video............

Good video. I don't groom my mini either to look like the typical show dog mini schnauzer. I groom my Oliver in the way of a terrier look. He still looks a mini schnauzer excluding the pronounced extreme eyebrows or extremely long beard. If I was showing him then yes I would but since his beard would get even more tangled and dirty when he plays around. Id have to groom him many times a day instead of once a week, lol

I’m now trying to groom my schnauzer instead of taking him to the groomer. He will not let me clip his nails at all any advice on how to start to keep him still?

[@marzipanmango]

For a few days try just touching and holding his paws while scratching him, giving him treats or feeding him. Touch his nails too, and squeeze his paws like you might if you were trying to clip them. When he seems comfortable (might take a week or more) you can try trimming his nails again. It helps if he's on a very short leash (tied to something sturdy) so he can't move much, and it's good to hold his paws in place very firmly. I hope this helps!
