I have decided that mainly because I enjoy the bathing time with Molly followed by the drying cuddling time, that I would like to learn to groom her myself. I do have a myriad of combs and brushes as well as a good Oster clipper. Also, because I need to carefully budget myself right now as well. I was just wondering if anyone has any particular grooming tips that I could use. Molly is 7 1/2 months old. She is in that shaggy, ratty-looking stage right now where her hair has grown out from the cute young puppy stage to the in-between adult stage. I was going to cut her eyebrows similar to a miniature schnauzer's and try and shape her beard better. Anyone have tips on keeping their beards from staining? Right now I've been using TropiClean's Puppy shampoo, Happy Tails Spa Sparkle & Shine Shimmering Mist leave-in conditioner and Pet Silk top knot. I have seen pics of other babies' on here in what appears to be the "puppy cut" which is how I wish Molly to end up looking.
By the way, I didn't cut her brows yet because when her hair was put up into a top knot, that hair was also used.
Finally, how often do you shampoo your babies on average? I don't want to over do and dry out her skin and hair. But, if I let her go more than 1 1/2 weeks, then she starts to feel like her hair is getting greasy.
Any and all advice will be appreciated. Thanks.
P.S. Has anyone used a Pet Jet? And if so, did you like it?
