This dog is clearly enjoying her grooming session. I really enjoyed watching you ‘perform’ your skills.
She looked so polished and pretty! Cleaning up "sanitary area" on any dog is a good thing to do I would think. It keeps them cleaner and less smelly.
Loved this grooming because it brough back memories of my grandmother's dog Lulu!👍👍👍
Must be camera magic. That is the most calm, biddable collie I've ever seen! :)
Mine is the same ✌🏻 really calm at all times.
I started giving my girls their baths when they were quite young-2 months-in my bathroom. I gave them kisses, talked and sang to them, then told them to "shake, shake, shake" inside the closed shower curtain and let them jump out and shake a little more before I finished drying them off brushing them and opening the door to let them run around in my apt. I them took them for a walkie when they were dry- if the weather permitted-to the Petco nearby and they could pick out a treat and a toy to bring home for being a good girl.
My aunt had a border collie named Shayna.I loved that dog so! Every time I would go to my aunt's house, I would give her love.She was a beautiful dog.So sweet!
Not to mention, SUPER SMART! What other dog can herd cows and/or sheep, keep track of all of them, notice if one us missing and go to look for it, and know what to do-once trained-w/o it's owner's attention?
My Tess (4 yrs.) detected that I has Diabetes before my dr. did. She also taught my Gypsy Rose Lee to let me know when my glucose was too high or low before she died at 16.2 yrs. Tess's grandson became a service dog to a young girl with CP and predicted her seizures as well on his own (Must be that keen nose of theirs).
bro that doggo looks exactly like mine mine is emily
Most borders look a lot alike
Mine dose not she is mostly white
This dog is my dogs doppelgänger! I felt like I was watching my girl the entire time haha
awwwww!!!!
So relaxing to watch 😅
My border collie scout , ran into the garden thinking I was going to groom him lol 😂
Gracias 😊 Saludos desde Costa Rica 🇨🇷
Good job. Beautiful lady and beautiful dog. Cheers from Poland! :)
Thank you very much!
thank you
The back legs came out nice! What attachment were you using on the trimming tool?
Their double coat help regulate body temperature both for hot weather and cold weather... I can't believe people are so ignorant.😢
Hi Cassie, what length is the comb attachment you used here? lovely job
Ahhh, that was great, wish u had shown more. I have a Boarder Collie mix in Florida, it would be nice to see what u did. That pup likes you!! 🔥🐕🥰👏👏👏👏👏🥰❤️😁
AWW! Thanks for watching! Any questions, feel free to ask!
@@CassiePutz amazing work! 👏 what clipper do you use on her but and tale?
I'm learning how to groom my border collie
What trimmer attachment length do you use for the rear end?
Mine is super angry when people blowdry him or cut his nails
Aww! Some dogs DON'T like getting groomed, but the more they have positive guidance, the more they will love and respect the process. Email us if you have questions! gonegrooming.com@gmail.com
Maybe try desensitizing as much as possible. Such as, when he is relaxed you can try and quickly touch his tail, or his paws so he gets used to it and slowly becomes more comfortable and calm. It can be a long process but if you do it fairly frequently then it can help a lot
Head wraps are good to stop the sound
Lovely ❤️ 💜 💙 💚 💛 🧡 🐾 ✂️
Thank you for watching!
Hiya lovely groom! What blade do you use for cleaning her pads? 😌
Oh my goodness I need a groomer so badly for my collie girl. Where are you located? 🤩
dang the adverts for other vids covers up the "after" shot at the end - can't see the head/chest/upper torso
I sure wish you had explained what blades you were using
😊👍good job
Lip is a cutie!
Can you do a video on tips of how to not over cut their nails
I have a Border Collie /Chow mix. What blade(s) are you using? My dog's coat is similar in the rear and sides. I don't want a full cut, just a trim like you did. Suggestions?
I would refer to a groomer near you. Mixture of the breeds differentiate upon the hair cut due to the hair texture. Questions? Email us. Send us a couple pics! Gonegrooming.com@gmail.com
What size blade and or rake do you use?
Do you have to train a dog from puppy hood to be this cooperative during grooming? I don't have a dog yet but was if this is a training process or do they just get used to getting groomed if you take them enough
Train them from puppies! Brush them, and (gently) handle their ears, paws, tail, etc so they are more accustomed to it. Border collies can be especially finicky about having their feet handled. And even a puppy needs grooming, whether by a professional or at home.
What do you recommend for shampoo for border collies my boy dude really needs a good wash and I don’t know what shampoo I need to use
What number guard were you using on her body?
Which type of Trimble hair machine are you using
Hi, i have 3 australian shepherd and i really want to groom them because im having troubled on their hair. Thanks to this video because i find the good clipper. The heiniger clipper that you are using is Saphir Dog Clippers? I found out that its only have one blade include on it no combs. The comb that use on it wahl attachment set (#3390-100)? Thanks
Do not clipper your Aussies’ topcoats!
May i ask what is the brand name of the trimmers you are using? Thank you!
We currently use heiniger. VERY difficult to get at this time. Are you a groomer?
Hi I have a golden border collie who is full of knots - it was honestly my mistake , would you have any recommendations? Should I trim, cut?
167th LIKE~~~ Good job for grooming "Lip". He looks neat after grooming.
I am living with Silver Poodle and White Bichon. If possible, i want you to groom my dogs. ^^
This is a video that makes me feel better just by watching❤❤❤.
Thank you for a really good video😍😍😍. My daughter loves this video too😆😆😆.
Thank you for making a great video💗💗.
I hope to be a good friend and sharing good information 👍👍👍.
Thanks for watching!
Premature with the next videos, can't see the transformation of it after.
really annoying
Where are you I need you my border collie/Austrian shepard is 12.
Our doggo dosent like trimmers at all he just show me its theet when i put that thing on so i trimmed him whit only sicors
Not the fancy pants nooooooo
Beautiful job shaping those butt fluffies, Cassie! As a young pet groomer in training, this made me so happy to see. I just took on my first two Borders (a rough coat and a smooth coat) and wanted to get a feel for what I'd be doing for them in the future. Wonderfully insightful. Love your process and the relationship you have with Lip. She's a good girl and you're fantastic at what you do.
Are trims like that ok I always hear it ruins the double coat?
Bob on, I have grown up with Collies and never once have any of them needed a cut nails or fur. It is a well known that it ruins their coats a good brush once a week keeps a long or medium coat collie in perfect condition. Best dog breed on the planet :)
It does! This groomer is wrong to clipper the topcoat.
Thank you for sharing this video. May I ask what you use to trim her butt long hair? Thank you
What clippers and attachments are you using?
heiniger. Not easy to get. Best advice is to scissor.
I have a border collie myself and I've been hearing you shouldn't shave them, but than is it fine to make the hair somewhat shorter on the butt like you did? Because that would be really convenient since she always gets that wet and it matts super easily
You should never shave a double coated breed because that increases the chance of them getting a heat stroke by 200%. Trimming/shaping is fine but never shaving too much.
You are correct, shaving a double coated dog, is a big no no.
#1 their coat may not grow back correctly for at least 3-6 months depending on their age. Best advice, is get them pro groomed. If money isn't there, I provided brushes in the description, and do that on a weekly basis if you aren't getting them professionally done. You create a bond with your dog.
@@CassiePutz - Take your own advice & do not clipper the topcoat!
What tool did you use to trim her fur? I have a border collie with very long fur and his butt is getting a bit too long
I trim my border collie baby's butt fluff with a good pair of scissors or use my own hair scissors. I also have this awesome razors comb that helps to pick out the occasion mattes behind her ear 🤗 I do plan on taking her to a professional in the coming weeks
What clippers do you use?
In this video, it is heiniger, but they don't sell on Amazon anymore.
So weird my name is also Cassie and I have a border collie as well
What's the song was listening to it whilst grooming me dog lol
Love you❤️❤️❤️❤️😣
If you groom a border collie like this regularly would it cut down on the shedding ?
deshedding regularly will help for sure!
YES
What gaurd number did you use.
30 blade with E comb on top.
will be doing this with mine. He's gotten kinda fuzzy all over. heh
reminding myself he's even more fuzzy now. lol when they're pooping on that hair along the back of their legs you know you waited too long. :p
I love dogos
I wish they wouldn’t add music !
Should you cut before or after bath
Only a slight trim in certain areas after a bath and complete blow dry. Try not to cut too much. Pure bred don't need much off. Owners choice.
@@CassiePutz thank you she looks great 😃
Personally I think a Border Collies' fur should never be trimmed. They have a very special type of double coat that keeps them warm in winter and cool them off in hot temperatures and are designed for being outdoors. I have a BC and would nt touch her fur, only a bath if she rolled in some dirt, otherwise just leave it. Don't fix what's already perfect.
Well my wife won't let the dogs stay outside & I'm SICK of the fur everywhere, so while my bc's fur is absolutely beautiful, I'm shaving him down with #1 guard ASAP
@@erkl8823 mine lives outside until winter she comes inside
Trimming isnt the same as cutting… Trimming is getting rid of the long whispy extra hair thats growing on their butts, belly, paws etc
I have to have mine clipped. We moved from the uk to Ibiza and it would be cruel to keep all that coat on her. The mild winters are perfect for her. She doesn’t look clipped so all good.
As much as I love this, unfortunately, not everyone lives in the perfect conditions for these dogs. I know she's built for it but living in Florida with a collie that has hair as long and thick as hers I feel awful watching her pant for hours after being outside only a few minutes.
What attachment do you use for the clippers? Like which length did you use for the hocks (or butt skirt as I call it)
You are correct on terms =) E attachment, but I love shaping butts with a 10 or 30(I call it skimming.) th-cam.com/video/Oq_0ijAVoko/w-d-xo.html --thats the Aussie video where I shape it
My collie never needs his nails clipped, he runs so much, lucky because he hates all the grooming and bath!
mine too! she's 6 years old and has them clipped only once!
How often should border collies need to be trim in the sanitary areas, also how often should they be groomed?
It's up to the owner. 6-8 weeks is normal
Our border collie is older. She is shed so much in 1 day we cannot live in our house well without her being grounded. We are very aware of how to coat But if you take her someone That knows that they can trim them in a way that it does not affect them adversely. In fact when our days are 96-98It would be Horrible do not get her trim med in the summer.
The coat has an cooling function which can be damaged when trimmed. It’s well documented. People Wanne help their dogs and that’s understandable but it’s a misunderstanding. But I don’t get why so many „professionals“ still do this. I quite honestly would sue!
My border collie is black and white... His name is tao because the tao is black and white. He has 2 years old and my name is chiara
I thought border collies shouldn’t be clipped?
I thought you aren’t supposed to shave double coated breeds as it can damage their coats and interfere with their ability to adapt to heat and cold.
I have had border collies all my life, I have 5 now. In the U.K., where they originally come from and where they are still extremely popular, I’ve never seen these dogs groomed the way they are on these utube videos. It really is an American style and I have to say I hate it.
I agree- i am in the us and have a non-working BC, just got him groomed and even after I reminded them “no shaving” they clipped him all over, and SHAVED his belly (which had a gorgeous flowing graduated shape to it). I’m SO upset!
Any idea how painful it is when someone forceably yanks (with a steel groomer) the undercoat out of a long-haired dog. They id blood adrenalin tests pre & operational and post grooming. When a dog is in fear/pain the adrenalin levels shoot up. During grooming and yanking the adrenalin levels were sky-high. The reason the groomer painfully yanking the coat out is because it is faster to complete the work. It is quite possible, during grooming to use the same human de-tangle and conditioning products as you do for humans. But by pressing down on coat and then gently grooming out undercoat the pain (fear) factor is much lessened. I wouldn't let any groomer who used such 'inconsiderate' methods anywhere near my dog.
Ma noooo
rip butt floof.
You literally gave no info
You gotta use your eye balls
Thought you were supposed to comb out the dog first before getting the fur wet?
It’s a big no no to use a blade on any collie, scissors only. Causes long term hair damage and matting gets worse
Not necessarily, to get larger amounts of hair off quickly then finish up with scissors is perfectly fine. Especially on a collie that moults
Border Collies just need a bath and brush out. They don't need to be clipped. They're not Poodles.
Lo está maltratandoo, dejaloo maltratadoraa!!!
You trimmed the fur….very bad that can be very bad for your dog.
A trimmed Border Collie is not a true Border Collie anymore. You’re just ruining his tru and characteristic image.
thank you for the advice but I personally think your border is a bit overweight, but i could be wrong.
it is a clients dog. They range in weight & sizes. Thank you for your input.
She doesn’t look overweight at all. I breed BC’s, and she looks quite healthy to me. The coat after a bath gets quite floofy/airy and can make them look bigger, but even then, she doesn’t look to be an unhealthy weight to me. 🤷🏻♀️
@@truthexposewithbri155 I agree. She looks about right to me too. Mine is a 6yo male and as long as he's around 18kg I think that's perfect.
@@awhite3747 40 pounds is a good weight. Mine is 45 lb
I train and show Border Collies in Conformation and Agility. Please do not ever clipper the topcoat! The double-coat provides the main source of temperature regulation. It protects from cold and hot weather. I get why you trimmed the britches & tail (client request due to an annoying puppy), but never the topcoat! The only things that get trimmed on a BC are the ears, feet & shaping of the britches.
In addition, do not EVER rotate a dog’s rear leg/hip assembly in the manner you do - YOU need to move and bend a little! You’re going to injure someone’s dog someday, if it hasn’t happened already. How about I move your upper leg to a 90 degree angle to your hip? Just because you CAN doesn’t mean you SHOULD. Dislocation waiting to happen.
Do you have to train a dog from puppy hood to be this cooperative during grooming? I don't have a dog yet but was if this is a training process or do they just get used to getting groomed if you take them enough
It definitely helps to get them used to being handled for grooming as a puppy! Some things I did with my dog as a puppy was getting her comfortable with me touching her paws at an early age
Some dogs hate, dislike, tolerate or love the grooming process from the get go, but the experiences they take from it will slightly change how they feel about it! (like any human being!) Its easier to get them used as a puppy, like Rebecca said above, but one can always try for older dogs.
Mostly, get them used to the brush (brush at home), bathe them at home, touching their paws (not only the front ones) and petting them... all of this will get a dog used to grooming, most of the time. Its mostly getting them used to human contact!
