| Grooming Tapes, Where? Hi YT I am totally new here and have read every thread (I beleive) about grooming tapes. I have contacted 2 different places about K. McGregors tapes, I did not reeceive a reply. So I am hoping someone here has them for sale or knows where I could get them. There seems to be some good ones that were done by members here, I would be interested in that one or maybe someone has a better one. I do hope I have posted this in the right place, please forgive my ignorance if this post is in the wrong place. The Slave |

| Welcome to Yorkie Talk. What is a grooming tape? Are you referring to a video? There are some free videos posted here in the sticky posts at the top of the forum. I bought one from eBay and I didn't like the way the person treated the dogs. Can't remember the name. YouTube is also a great resource.

| K. McGregor just rang a bell with me -- the renowned Yorkie handler? Her videos are reported to be excellent.

| Hi Yes your right I meant a dvd or video of any form. Yes I have heard so much about these videos(K. McGregor) that it will be the answer to my hopeful champ! I have not a mentor to help me so I thought that would be excellent! Thanks for your response! |

| I haven't done any trimming on my puppy as yet but have heard others encourage others to try and that practice makes perfect. Oh yes, they also reminded that the hair does grow back. LOL

| Hi, yes that coat will grow back, but the type of grooming I am interested in is grooming for show. |

If you are learning to groom your show dog, then Kristen's tapes/DVDs are definitely what you want. Best wishes/

You might want to post a new thread in the showing section asking for info. More show people may see it and may be able to help. You could also post on Gemy's (Gail) page and ask. She is in Canada and has a Grand Champion Yorkie named Sir Razzle Dazzle: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/member.php?u=19203647 I would love to have the DVDs myself, although my boys are pets.

I think you said you wanted to show. Some advice vs a vs grooming. Watch carefully how to just tip/trim the ears, also how the paw is shaped, and the amount of coat that you do leave on around the paw up to the ankle. Also the sanitary trim for the show dog. Tip the coat ends every 2-3 wks after bathing. Buy the best quality shampoo and conditioner for washing the coat. Vellus might ship up to Alaska. #1 All Systems is another good line. Some folks love Coat Handler products. Biogroom has an excellent Silk Conditioner very good.Laser Lites has some good products - particularly "Silk" that can be diluted as a grooming spray or as an additive to your conditioner. Also invest in some wrapping jackets. If you train outdoors, consider sun damage (so wrapping jacket protects coat from sun), and booties. You will need to purchase wrapping papers to wrap the coat as well. Good luck in the ring.
