I can try - I'm Not a groomer but have been learning as I go what works for me....What I did was find tools I'M comfortable with -

1st pic is a Wahl 1" head trimmer that I use for the ears...sanitary cutting..(butt) AND the bottom of their feet - sizzors on the bottom of feet works easy too.

it's pretty easy to groom their feet - stand them and bend their foot AWAY from their face and it seems to be easier if they can't see what your doing

the 2nd picture is a little 1/4 head trimmer - is GREAT for under eyes - I don't use it anywhere else - it takes just enough under the eyes to remove the strays and tearstains - I could live without this trimmer -

3rd pic is the Personal Trimmer - I love it. It's quiet and you can't really make a chunking mistake cause it trims a little at a time - FOR anyone who is unsteady - it's perfect.

I just gently trim stray hairs so their whole eye is visible - I tried to let it grow but the girls are outside alot and hair was always sticking into their eyes so I trim. Many people don't but I prefer the look and they can see better.

I hope this helps someone - I'm no expert but it sure is nice not taking them to the groomer every six weeks cause they DON'T like going and I don't like leaving them - and it saves money cause a groomer basically will do minor things sometimes - and charge full price
