Westlake Village Pet Grooming, It's Pawfect- Summer Cut on a Golden!

[@RheincroftGoldens]

As a professional dog groomer of over 29 years I am sad to see a Golden being clipped off. You do not clip double coated breeds!

[@teresatheriault8085]

I would never do this to my golden. I know that they shed a lot and its work to keep your home clean. Weekly grooming is important and helps with the shedding with by monthly baths. So if you didn't want to deal with the hair then you should not of gotten a golden.. They have a double coat for a reason, cool in the summer and warm in the winter. There is also some concerns doing this that it will bugger up their ph balance in their skin.

[@devilinbluejeansxx8925]

my dog literally overheats if we don’t shave her. she’s 13, her body can’t regulate itself anymore.

[@britking]

Well, if you're going to criticize the groomer for cutting the coat, then let's criticize you for "bi-monthly" baths. A golden doesn't need a bath twice a month. In fact, that can be bad for their skin. So now who's the bad owner?

[@Mrchuydj]

[@sustainablelife1st]

All old wives tales.

[@minnierv]

Jessica Villanueva-Walker, you're 100% right. We just adopted a Golden and in the paper work we were given there was a page on grooming and it emphasized, in capital letters NEVER SHAVE A GOLDEN....for the reason you gave in your post.

[@MaridaSapichino613]

Cindy Maddux Yes Jessica is right I have spoken to professionals and owners of many Goldens they would NEVER shave there dogs.. And by the way this groomer was so fast with that scissor my heart was in my mouth watching her cut especially around the Goldens Ears. I don't care what kind of experience she has she isn't cautious...My Opinion Just Saying..

[@constancespellman9560]

Yes, you are right. A golden should not be sharved like this. No double coated dog should be shaved, only single coated dogs can be shaved. I have worked in grooming shops and know many people who show goldens.

[@u2yes1dnoedcpsabrinakittyb2]

Because of double bone and ears

[@lokgarrick]

That's a baby golden retriever style haircut. Even at that hair length, their second layer is still in tact. So GR lovers, restassure.

[@mirameyer9118]

this is pretty much what i do with my golden in the summer since she loves to swim in the lake down the road; so much easier to keep the hot spots away/find them and she still keeps her double coat - it’s just shorter and easier to deal with. more comfortable for her too; she’s always extra bouncy and happy after i trim her up and she’s 10 years old now lol. she’s extremely short and has extremely long belly fur almost down to her feet 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@brandirogers2430]

What comb are you using for this length?

[@misslillian6687]

Well, I have owned nothing but Goldens for the past 40 years. I believe this groomer is dedicated to her job and works very hard but....I shrieked when she cut the longer hair off the Golden's legs! If you want a lab, go out and get one! That longer fur on the legs of a Golden is a crucial part of their beauty. Why on earth would you cut it all off?

[@whoyouaregoingtocallcallgh5496]

I don't want to step on anybody toes but I shave my golden retriever mix and his fur grows back just as beautiful as if he didn't get shaved soooooo leave the lady alone she knows what she's doing. Just wanted to thank you for a job well done

[@louisemeadow2905]

Another groomer that’s knows nothing about a Golden’s coat. Shame on you.

[@its-a-matter-of-time.]

So how would you groom my golden here in Taiwan where temperatures can reach tropical levels?

[@its-a-matter-of-time.]

@Alex D This dog was designed for Scotland. In Alaska he will be cold and in Taiwan he will be hot. In Alaska a Husky with super fur will do better and in Taiwan a short hair one will do better. The golden´s long fur can help in change of temperatures in mild places but in a hot place if left for more than 10 minutes the long fur will give him problems. My golden is always with the tongue out here in Taiwan and the long fur does nothing to cool him down. Taiwanese dogs have very short hair for a reason, so I have decided to refresh him by shaving his hair.

[@pompulousify]

@@its-a-matter-of-time. What you didn't like the other answer you got so you posted the exact same question again? Do your research - clipping a golden's hair can make them even hotter AND give them sunburn. It's not like hair on a human.

[@its-a-matter-of-time.]

@@pompulousify That is not true. I trimmed by golden retriever´s hair last week to 3 milimeters hair long and since then the dog is very relieved from many things and he is much happier: no more suffering from the heat and no more pulling his lounge out all the time, no more hiding in the fresher bathroom, it stopped scratching with his legs his skin (seems that the heat was giving him skin issues). Whoever says that long hair makes them cooler is lying. In hot weathers you should trim your dogs hair. Period.

[@pompulousify]

@@its-a-matter-of-time. it's not the longer hair that keeps them cool you dolt. It's the double layer of hair. If you would've actually done some research you would've read about that. You're removing that secondary layer when you cut it that short.

[@UknownWorlds]

Bow that's a cute haircut. I agree with it instead of him being shaved down completely like some groomers do. I have a Goldendor and he inherited the shortness the texture of golden retriever fur with he shortness of the labrador fur. He is all black. I want to keep his hair looking beautiful but never shaved down completely. Ty so much for your upload. This is a lovely summer look.

[@K1MB3RL3Y88]

Its so sad when you see a groomer that has no idea how to correctly groom a dog. Goldens should not be shaved, it prevents them from regulating their body temperature well. You can trim them, but they should never be shaved. I would have been livid if this was my dog.

[@itspawfect]

i guess owner happy... we do this twice a year for the last 6 years. coat has grown back fine. skin is perfect. its knowing length you can do to not disrupt coat.

what do you mean regulating temperature? i adopted mine when he was 18 months old and shaved right to the core because of yeast infection when i got him.

[@WavelengthsArt]

Don't you EVER shave a goldens fur. You'll only damage the undercoat. Even if it's hot outside and it looks warm for us humans, don't do that! These dogs NEED their fur for climate and controlling their body temperature

golden has been cut like this for ten years! always grows back the same. not a problem.

[@ZanddyH]

My 12 yo Golden hates the heat, even more so now that he's gotten older. I give him this exact hair cut, but with scissors because my little clippers can't even go through a bit of his thick hair. It takes several days as he gets bored and can't stand for long periods of time due to arthritis. I wish the final product looked even ⅓ as good. Poor thing is gonna sue me one of these days. At least he is not hot, 😂😂😂. Beautiful cut!

[@killer1966witt]

I have a Golden and she has terrible allergies and gets bad hot spots. 6 years ago I decided to start shaving her in the spring. Hot spots are minimal and skin allergies to. I only do it in the spring and her coat comes back as normal.

You are right thank you

Is it sucking the fur as you're cutting it?! Genius!!

[@billmilosz]

I had a springer spaniel / german shorthair mix, long hair too but not quite as thick as a golden. In summer we'd get this low cut for her, and she ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. She'd run around like a nut for DAYS afterwards. Plus, no one could keep their hands off the dog, she felt like a big plush toy with that short fur. She loved all the attention, too! If your dog's coat is compatible with a summer cut (dogs with guard hair coats like German shepherds aren't, etc) I suggest you do your dog a favor and get a short summer cut.

[@spiralstarekase]

For all the idiots criticizing this groomer that was nice enough to upload this video for us, the golden retriever undercoat that regulates body temperature is WHITE. She is merely using a trimmer to cut off the golden top. If she were to shave this golden, s/he would look white. Golden retrievers shed everywhere and a haircut like this is necessary twice a year for the dog's health and a clean house! Thank you for uploading this educational video for us, don't listen to the haters!

[@laurab6677]

I love goldens my boy is as well behaved as the one your doing. Whether it's right or not right it's personal preference. She's only doing what the owner has probably requested. If it's a happy healthy dog that's all that matters.

[@sanchini1]

"She's only doing what the owner has probably requested" you don't know that, maybe she recommends it to owners. If she does, she is being irresponsible to her costumers. If they do request it, she should explain that it shouldn't be done to a Golden. All that being said, since she is posting an instructional video about how to do it, It's more likely she's an idiot!

[@paulieinct]

Beautiful clip! That is one handsome and happy dog!! You are an artist.

[@russrussell5502]

first off this golden is not shaved... using a blade is shaving.There are some double coated breeds for example the Husky. any type of cutting the hair changes growing back in. I am giving 5 to 10 goldens full haircuts a day right now with the hot weather.. I have been grooming golden this way 25 years they all grow back the same. Its being aware of coat and length you are taking. If you are against this from a breeder stand point..Sorry, goldens have beautiful coats!! I love a full coated golden more than anything. In my experience its all positive dogs and owners happy no one.. or.. hair hurt. Maybe from a breeder stand point you should know..there is a likeliness your golden will get haircuts..maybe educating on how to do that would be best.

[@palmalaw49]

How long does it take for the coat to grow back to normal?

Hey i have a golden and i'd like to trim him the way you do, i bought the trimmer machine but i dont know which length comb to use. Would you tell me which one you use on that golden? i dont want him shaved i dont want to ruin his coat . My machine comes with length from number 1 to 10. Thanks

[@itspawfect]

I have never burned a dog! Don't assume! I always powder to remove moisture.. It feels nice. Part of a spa experience.. This particular golden has had this haircut for the last few years.. Once a year. Always grows back. And if you really pay attention. I'm actually not shaving but using a snap on comb. My speed with scissors shows years of experience. Most show groomers and master of their trades scissor like this. At the end of the day... The client gets what they want.. The dog is happy. All that matters.. If you are thinking of doing this to your golden... It's a great cut.. And the hair grows back the same.

[@tprocess]

Shaving a golden takes away their sun protection & does not cool them down; dogs cool from panting & through their pads; shaving them does not cool them down, but allows the sun better access to their skin.

[@itspawfect]

No way sun is on the skin.. Coat still too long. This dog is no where near shaved.

[@daniellem6172]

My 2 Golden Retrievers have always gotten the Yellow lab look. Its actually quite popular. They are both 10 years old. Never gotten cancer from getting this type of cut. Retrievers hair can grow really long & shaggy looking so to get the shorter hair cut keeps My dogs cleaner. I also live where there are a lot of deer ticks & getting this type of hair cut helps me spot if they have a tick on them. Seriously, to the ones that are criticizing this groomer, lay off. The dogs look Happy, not nervous & are getting pampered. There are dogs being TRULY mistreated in this world & all you guys want to do is run your mouth & tell your internet expert opinion on how a groomer should groom a dog. If you don't like what you see, keep scrolling & keep the negative opinion to yourself. We have enough miserable people in this world & nobody wants to hear them.

[@teaganyan6423]

I'm not a dog expert but i know for sure that you're not supposed to shave a husky, idk for holden's but this one looks so fluffy and cute

[@nadinerich55]

Great looking cut! Groomers do what the owner requests, unfortunately, we can't do whatever we want or feel and still stay in business. We usually recommend a good brush out with our undercoat rake (recommend Paws Pamper undercoat rake NOT the Furminator) and trimming of the butt, feet, legs, tail and a bit around the ears (sometimes the hair hanging off the sides) but some owners insist on a full-body cut. Unless the dog has a poor coat already or skin issues there's never been a problem with the coat growing back :-)

[@starwarsfanforlife]

We had to shave our golden/mix dog down quite a bit due to a bad flea issue not too long ago. His coat is just now starting to grow back and I really like the length shown in this video! So were you just using a 10 blade with an A magnetic comb? Thanks!

[@Devilsnightforlife]

I have to admit; even though a golden looks more majestic with long hair, then he still manages to look beautiful with a summer cut. And a summer cut, given that it _is_ during summer, probably feels great for the dog during the hot hours. I could also imagine that it could feel pleasant for a golden retriever to not carry around so much fluff that jiggles around.

[@FITZIEBLUE]

it's for the owners benefit to do a "summer clip". The dogs are fine with the extra pelt. But mud, dirt, grass, leaves, water after a swim, all cause a messy inconvenience in the house; clipping eliminates that problem for the owner: dogs couldn't care less.

[@brendamelanson7182]

Great job! Looks fantastic. My Golden loves the short haircuts. She walks around all proud after she gets groomed.

[@its-a-matter-of-time.]

I need to say something for those "professionals" who advise against cutting your golden´s hair. I live in Taiwan where tropical weather is hot and humid. My 8 month old puppy was every day with his tongue out, hiding in the bathroom and pretty much suffering from the heat. I gave it much though and despite some suggestions I decided to trim his hair to a 3 mm length. The results were immediate: the dog stopped hiding in the bathroom, stopped pulling out his tongue all the time (now he never does that in the house aside from when he runs or gets very excited), he is happier and even stopped scratching himself with his legs. Noting but gains and a better life to this dog. I will make sure that his hair keeps trimmed 8 months out of the year at least here in Taiwan. Maybe if you live in a cold place like where this breed comes from (Scotland) you need to not touch his hair, but in warm places you should cut his hair to relieve your dog from the heat. That long hair coat does not make your dog fresher, it makes him or her miserable in hot weathers. Get rid of it and he or she will feel like other breeds made for hot weathers feel.

[@mels.3750]

I own two goldens and I would never shave them. The groomer was asked to do this so I don't blame them. I want my golden to look like a golden. Goldens have long beautiful fur with a double-coat and it's for a reason, as some have mentioned below.

[@MaxCooperJones]

the comments below state that the fur is supposed to regulate temperature. i ask from the heat or cold? because my place here is summer all year long.

[@schaapje666]

a fur only keeps a dog warm in sub zero temps. dogs can only cool themselfs by breathing through their mouth. they cant sweat./cool themselfs that way. so youll be doing your dog a favor buy trimming him a bit shorter in high temps. and if its realy hot you can cool them down with water and.or a cooling pad.

[@tamarakennedy4976]

It's always great to have 2 sets of clippers because regardless of their quality you will never defy science and the fact that friction will always generate heat especially when physics adds FORCE against existing resistance FORCE is directional cutting added to friction movement and speed at which you are moving clippers times the fur which direction it grows and it gets hot on dogs body clippers get hot ...YOU won't notice on little dogs it doesn't happen as often but larger dogs are more tolerant yet won't say so effing until you have already in the process of injury and that can be avoided ...clearly this baby has had enough super sweet baby..

I've been told to never shave a golden bc they have a double coat which traps cool air in the summer and warm air in the winter. Just wash blow and trim then brush 2 * week to keep them from getting smelly by moving the oils around. I also think they look much prettier with the long double coat.

[@noellechase1704]

you not supposed to shave any breed you should only be trimming the bottom of their paws thats it i rather groom my own dog don't trust groomers for this same reason

[@kelykazelli]

Exactly how much cool air do you have to "trap" in the summer? I have very hot air. Not fun for the dog being trapped.

[@moronicvideos]

@@kelykazelli The air acts as an insulator. The dog heats it in winter and it's kept from cooling off too soon. In summer it prevents the dog from absorbing too much heat too fast from the outer coat that's been warmed by the sun. It's the reason you can have sneakers in winter as long as it isn't wet.

Golden Retrievers have a double coat and it magically traps ice cold air in 95 degree heat in the summer. 😆 So you should never shave them in the summer. I admit I'm not an expert but that sounds like a load of bullshit. I'm pretty sure the dog would be cooler if you shaved off his fur.

[@nemobuscaptain3245]

Sure it does. It has an air conditioner up it's a hole that pumps cold air directly to it's undercoat. It's a magical design, really.

[@eliseonavarrete8287]

It doesn't take a genius to understand that shaving a golden retriever's fur isn't going to make him or her sick or even die. That's not the point at all. You have to understand how a golden retriever's fur works and how to cut it. But it looks like all you worry about is making them look pretty and thinking that they look happy. Obviously golden retrievers are well known for pleasing their owners and being cheerful. But they have to go through that long cycle of having to regrow their fur and re-regulate their temperature once again. But whatever you say. If you don't really want to understand and care for how their specific fur works, be my guess.

what is the grooming tool that you are using? It seems like a knife cutting a hot butter. Very smooth

[@clarenorman52]

That is beautiful! I am doing that same one with my gilden!

[@lindadunkelberger3544]

beautiful job - thanks so much for sharing! My Goldens love the summer cut and they grow back beautifully!

[@df21084]

You like the summer cut. Your Goldens most likely hate it.

[@lindadunkelberger3544]

df21084 like you know? mind your own business.

[@nirajshekar5979]

What is the name of the trimmer your using

[@franciscoalva9965]

Any tips and how I can get my Holden's hair to grow back naturally without any curling on top of his back. I comb it and I've shaved it like this one on the video before but it grows back curly

[@charshepherd1384]

Because you shouldn’t shave a double coated dog. You’re hurting your dog and obviously it’s going to grow back bad.

I wish you were close to us! This is EXACTLY the type of cut I want for our golden mix!! He sheds like a beast and this cut would sure help for the summer!!

My golden would rather feel hot than have his precious coat cut. Lol. I do his paws, ears, tails and "butt". Other parts, he' not allowing to be touch ;)

[@dianab8909]

This looks great! My flat coated retriever is always so much happier and playful after getting groomed. I think the long coat of hair is too much for him and feels burdoned. Here's my problem, he's has a tumor and it's caused neuropathy in his feet so I want to try to trim him down at home. He loves getting groomed but I don't want to put the stress of a car ride on him. Could you recommend a particular clipper and what comb did you use? I like this cut becuase it's not too short. I know my job won't look as good but he would feel better without the stress. Thanks .

I shave my golden in the summer. She is much more comfortable and her coat grows back completely by winter time. People make a huge deal and like to sound like they are experts, but with my experience with my dog, they are full of shit. For Golden at least, shaving is the way to go

[@angelicaniaves3085]

ronstern204 Get a lab. Did he tell you he was more comfortable?!? You are not supposed to cut the hair off!

[@chriswallick8614]

Angelica Niaves u can tell by her body language can't u?

[@monicarothbeck7393]

@@angelicaniaves3085 Angelina, I just posted a comment. I do rescue and adoptions and also a Professional Pet Groomer and I don't think dogs with undercoating should be shaved .. I have G Retrievers and had rescues and ALL my dogs Never ever lived outside. I vacuum 3 +++ times everyday to keep a very clean home. That's what I do.

[@icublondie]

What kind of powder are you using? Is that help to stop for irritated skin after dog got shaved?

[@MaridaSapichino613]

icublondie I thought the same thing about the powder the shaver probably got hot and burned the dog...
