Shih Tzu Dog Grooming Instructional How To DVD Video and Equipment Guide

Excellent video! For the price even if you only got one tip fromit it would be worth it. EVERTHING is covered! The video is long but it goes through the entire process of grooming. I also like that the dog she groomed wasn't always cooperative, easier to groom a calm dog! I do agree with the other post that her finished puppy didn't look hot, face didn't match the body!

I bought this video because the description promised I'd see a shih tzu groomed, not a beagle or a poodle. I learn better by seeing/doing than by reading a book. Books make grooming seem alternately impossibly difficult and absurdly easy. Well, our Shih Tzu puppy and I watched and learned as Lena groomed Popcorn, step by step. Our puppy responded to every "good girl" Popcorn earned--but didn't quite learn Popcorn's calm in the face of clippers and shampoo. The DVD is like taking a grooming class, only better because I can review any part of the grooming process when I want to--just click and hop to equipment or bathing or teeth or ears or nails or clipping (from hair long to hair gone). Lena grooms Popcorn in a home using the same equipment that's at hand for me--sink, sprayer, table. Lena anticipates questions and gives tips about what to do when the grooming process stresses your pup. And by watching I learned what I can try now--teeth, nails, bath/conditioning, face and paw trims and top knot--and what I'll need to leave to a groomer until I have more confidence and a calmer puppy. Thanks, Lena!

I ordered this dvd wasn't quite sure when I first started to watch, but as it progressed I was surprised how much there is to learn about grooming your dog. She explained and shows how important it is to do the sanitary cut and to remove the hair inside the dogs ears. I would recommend you watch parts of this dvd in sessions. 90 minutes is too long for one sitting. Worth the money glad I purchased it . I groomed my two Shih-A-Poos, and they look pretty good Used my new Waul Deluxe Clipper set followed her instructions and was very pleased with the results.

This is the best DVD yet I give it a five star because they lived up to his name it went from the beginning to end it step-by-step I love this DVD I have order other DVDs for dog grooming but this is far the best so that's why I give it a five star she is a very excellent Groomer and the detail that she displays everything I just love this DVD and I highly recommend it for anyone that want to groom their dogs

Gave me the confidence I needed to tackle haircuts for my Shih-tsus. Don't be put of by the simple presentation. There is a wealth of information here, and my dogs look great.

I really liked this video on grooming alot! She went over the tools and how you use them and also showed scissoring as well as using clippers. Seemed pretty thorough to me. Great as a reference video if you forget something along the way! I say it's well worth the money.

This is a very thorough look at what you need for grooming and bathing your dog. It takes you through all the steps. I was looking for help in cutting my dog's long hair, and this video only shaves the dog. For me, it didn't help at all.

This DVD is excellent for a new home groomer. The dog was at times difficult and uncooperative which made this realistic. Other DVDs show dogs that are used to being groomed and perfect conditioned coats. I would highly recommend for first time groomers. A bit boring for more experienced groomers but very useful just the same.

Every bit of grooming done on the little dog can be viewed on youtube for free. The demonstration did not include the top of the dogs head, because the owner of the dog wanted to keep the top knot. With the top knot she did not even show how to lock in the bow so the dog would not shake it out. All-in-all I was not really satisfied with the DVD. Would not recommend this DVD. Save your money and search youtube to find grooming videos.
