I really like grooming my own dogs - I feel like I have really accomplished something! With 5 dogs to groom - I'd go broke taking them to the groomers, which I didn't like doing anyway.

I still don't have the scissoring part down. Like on their legs or just trimming around the edges. Not quite sure how to do that.

For the small spots and around the bum area, I use the Wahl peanut. It works great! I got it on e-bay, it's the pink one and part of the money goes towards breast cancer research.

Oh, I was going to add that if the grooming is taking a long time, like if I'm shaving Tinka, we take a break and she gets a little treat or something. It makes it much easier and less stressful.
