I can’t thank you enough for such explicit instructions!! I am a visual learner and struggling w/chemo brain so I truly appreciate your tutorial as I have a 10 yr old doodle who will not let me touch his paws! So if you mite have any helpful suggestions, plz let me know!
Thank you for posting!!! You didn’t have the music (pet peeve of mind) obnoxiously loud and made sure we could see what you were doing! I appreciate the explanation as you go as well! Thank you!!
I absolutely love this tutorial! You explained everything very clearly. My dog isn’t a fan of me trimming around his mouth. Do you have any tips on that?
GREAT video!! So clear, concise, and descriptive. Thank you, my dog needs this done right now & I’ve been avoiding it bc I wasn’t sure how exactly. Now I feel more confident I could trim his face without making him look wonky. 👏🐩👍🤩
Hi! I learned about you on a Baxter and Bella podcast! Ordering your products now! Question- we would like to avoid creating the “mustache” on our doodle and create more of a “puppy cut” look. Can you provide a tutorial on this??? I have several friends who like the same look and it’s very hard to find a groomer who does it correctly! Thank you!
Hi Love this suggestion, absolutely we'll work on it. If you can send us a picture to hello@thepupwell.com to make sure we are doing exactly what you're asking that would be so helpful!
A couple things some people may find helpful! Your blades can get dull if your dog is dirty! So when grooming a face check that everything is sharp and that the fur is brushed and clean if you can. Dull blades make meaner cuts if you accidentally mis-snip. Thank you for the shaping help!! ❤ Edit: whoops! Additional question! Do you have suggestions for loops to use at home? The last groomer I paid burned my dogs sanitary with a hot clipper they didn’t check. I don’t want anyone to touch him again so a good set up at home is really what I need! Thank you 🙏
same I tried holding her face and she kept moving anyways. I was able to cut little but couldn't finish around her eyes and bangs. wish there was a way to get her to stay still @pupwell.
Keep in mind that a dog’s nasal passages can get stuffed up just like a human’s can. Keep that in mind in you choose to hold the dog’s snout on both the top and the bottom. It may be best to get in the habit of only doing that hold for a few seconds at a time.
trust me he's a crazy dog, so we use discipline on him to make sure he listens good for his own good. for his safety and others. we tried doing it while he sleep but he has one damn good hearing even tho he has a big ol ears.
@rheeakilang870 I found something that worked for my dog. I got a shower curtain rod and put my dogs leash on it and secured it with tension in the bathtub directly over the top if where the dog would be and giving enough room for me to move around. I put his collar on really loose so I could get the clippers around it and hands when I wash him. When I put him in the tub now he doesn't try to run away. When I cut his hair in there, I plug the drain and use a shop vac to get the last bits of hair after cleaning the bulk out by hand. It actually makes cleaning the hair and bathing/cutting his hair a much easier job. The leash doesn't have any tension. He just knows he can't run off. I give him treats and pets and pats the whole time to settle and reassure him, and I have no issues except drying him can still be a pain, but it's not too bad. Beats 100.00 almost twice a month on grooming.
This has been the BEST tutorial to guide me with my doodle’s face. Thank you!

I am so glad it is helpful! I am a visual learner myself :) I would work on desensitizing the paws by touching everyday and giving treats!
Thank u thank u! I am self taught and generally do pretty good but trip at the finish line with the face!😂
Thank you! Great video. Milo looks a lot like my baby so this is very helpful!
5:02 it’s pretty funny just how far to his left this dog manages to move his nose (not the snout, just the nose itself).
Very helpful video, especially with specific instruction about neck safety.
Excellent and very helpful video. He looks so much like my pup.
Very helpful video. I’ll try your techniques! Thank you😊

This was awesome. Do you bathe the dog first and then brush out before grooming or do you brush and groom and then bathe?
Bathing first and making sure to dry will make the groom 100x easier!
I absolutely love this tutorial! You explained everything very clearly. My dog isn’t a fan of me trimming around his mouth. Do you have any tips on that?
Thank you! This is the set I'm using pupwell.com/collections/bundles-kits/products/pupparent-essentials

My pup won't stop moving her head when I try to groom her face! Even when I hold it. What should I do?

What size are your curved shears your using? 7", 8"?
Thank you veru much!!
Thanks so much! 👍
Das a good boy 😊
Never use scissors pointed at the eyes.
except my dog can't stay still we had to pin him down for his own good
