I really liked this video (except camera was blocked at times). Who is this guy? His instruction was clear and concise - easy to follow. Safety tip for tongue was good - my dog keeps sticking her tongue out to lick - scary! Best grooming video I've seen so far.
Still a fairly new groomer here, and I have had the toughest time getting yorkie heads to look exactly right. I've damn near had to teach myself everything I know, so I've been hunting youtube for exactly the kind of pet trim for a yorkie head that I'm looking to do. This is BY FAR the most helpful video I have found. Thank you so much! I knew this technique, but actually getting to see it done from start to finish on a well behaved dog is so helpful. also, he is NOT being rough. He has extremely sharp scissors near that dogs eyes, and thin skin. For its own safety, it needs to stay still.
Right? I thought the same. I'm learning how to become a groomer without going to school bc I've read we don't need it. But I've owned dogs my whole life. Good luck!
@@ovsog.4979 I've heard that "we don't need it" jazz - and then the dog comes in looking like someone took a lawn mower to it an we are asked to pull off a miracle and make Buffy look cute again. Or, worse, Buffy comes in missing some body part - I've seen that as well. If you don't want to take proper classes, at least start out as a bather in a shop and get training from a good groomer on how to build up your skill level. The problem with amateurs is they don't know what they don't know.
@@ovsog.4979 I have been grooming for over 20 years. I did not go to grooming school but I did learn one on one with a very experienced groomer in a grooming shop. it's not something you can learn by just watching TH-cam videos. it takes a lot of hand on experienced. ya the videos are helpful
i watched this months ago and my yorkie turned out beautiful. he was very professional with this dog. did a great job. I dont think he was to rough. he's fast he is experienced
Guys. If he let the dog (who is distracted NOT afraid) move however it wants it’s going to lose an ear or tongue. If the dog were in distress it wouldn’t let him do anything on him. The dog is just distracted by everything behind the camera and is being nosy. The guy is correcting him while also keeping the dog still so it doesn’t get hurt.
He's aware. The dog is working with the groomer very well, allowing him to groom much more quickly. When you see a good groomer working with a good dog, it can look rough but it's just that the dog is being very cooperative and letting the groomer do what needs to be done. The groomer can work much quicker, which means the dog doesn't have to be on the table as long. Many groomers battle with their dogs which makes for a longer grooming time, a frustrated groomer, a stressed dog and potentially a less than perfect cut.
Our pets need to be clean and groomed for their own health. If you want them to be done in a specific style that doesn't hurt the dog in anyway. I am a professional groomer and dogs LOVE to come see me, its like a fucking spa day. So, you know, opinions are like assholes, but i needed to say something. This man does a great job so shushh.
If he doesn’t control the dogs movements the dog will get cut. It’s simple. He lets the dog move and do what he wants the dog gets cut wrong or get injured.
@@wendielauriola9824 I like him and we love your baby 🐶 We love your baby so much if we are not stern they can get injured. Remember our scissors are very sharp and your baby wants to move around 😘 I always end with love ! ❤
Hi I have Lowchen puppy he’s 10 months old and I have been looking for tutorials on how groom him in a teddy bear cut not a traditional Lowchen have you any tips or experience? Thanks in advice Nicky
+Julie Suffi - I agree! seems like more work (cutting) than necessary. The time factor could be reduced also. That's important when time is also a factor in competition.
Julie Suffi I do the shape with scissors and then lightly blend any lines or scissor marks with thinners. I've always thought that thinners from start to finish is too time consuming to be practical in a salon.
He's got a thinners-over-comb video that shows the head treatment toward the end much more clearly. Here's the link - th-cam.com/video/PNmgI7n_ygo/w-d-xo.html
I see you are using Cesar Millan's method in correcting the dog. People have to realize that dogs think differently than we do and the sweet, "I love my baby" method isn't really working for the mentality of the dog. I love your scissoring method and it looks very nice on these dogs. See, the dog isn't complaining at all if will probably get a treat at the end. Nice job!
Cute and well explained!!! But please be more gentle on them my Yorkie is a rescue pet and even him was not as scared as that poor dog, everybody can see he is terrified and He pulls hir hair eveytime he tries to get away from his shears, more gentle please 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This video would be alot better from his RIGHT side so we don't have to keep looking at his left shoulder while he's telling us about what cuts hes making!!
This guy’s a bit of a brute. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near my dog, let alone allow such intimate contact as grooming. Gentle, respectful and safe handling is primary.
dogman780 I’ve been seeing all of these comments about the dog being afraid. At the very least he is distracted by the crowd behind the camera and wants to look. If any of the people commenting on this video knew anything about dogs they’d see this dog is fine. He just wants to be nosy.
I own my own grooming salon and I would love to have this guy on board! This is a grooming video not a animal behavior one. We have to show "we mean business" to the 🐶 or they can be injured. That's why a lot of my clients try but can't groom their own dog... ALWAYS end it with love though!❤
@@barbaramott1752 We love your dog too! We love it so much we have to be stern or your baby can get hurt! Remember our scissors are very sharp and your baby wants to move around ;)
carlos SUAREZ There's a huge difference between being firm and being rough. If you don't keep a firm grip the dog will move, most of the time INTO the blade, and that's how injuries happen.
+pandaclausable Very well said; so often pet owners see what they think is rough handling and it is just the groomer re-establishing a level of humane control applicable to the breeds temperment. A moment of control to safely and quickly complete a groom task. Few pet groomers are able to humanely have a pets obedience and cooperation needed to use the show techniques that produce the show grooms like show groomers can with competition conditioned and trained dogs.
+New Citizen What the heck! Are you kidding me? He is rough. He treats the dog like an object and he is not. He never praises the pet and he is rough. Period. I would never take my dogs to to a groomer like that if they are going to be treated like objects. Sorry!
+New Citizen I'm sorry I don't agree with you, but not pet should be treated as "object" no matter the circumstances. I own a Pet Spa in the State of Florida and trust me, my groomers would be fired if I see them treat ca doggie like that. I have one master groomer and she is so loving and caring with the furbabies. We have a good reputation around town because people that care about their pets, don't want their pets to be treated as " objects or be "conditioned" as such. I own two dogs and I would never let anybody to treat my pets like that; is just my humble opinion and also because I care too much. BTW, there was a convention today in Orlando that lasted 3 days, since Friday. I went today, and only a couple of groomers were very rough, the rest were actual nice with the pets.
+Jk Ma I think you have several issues. One is as you said...."He never praises the pet". The second issue may be that he is a male in a female dominated profession. So .... if I may I shall address your issue that "he never praises the pet". The pet (dog) is obviously a Terrier. Terrier breeds have a temperament that should and must be handled with a firm hand and voice exhibiting a tone of confidence. Jonathon has obviously established himself the alpha one in this grooming relationship. Praising a terrier is the manner I think you want to hear would undermine the important control needed to safely groom any terrier. Second issue; I detect you may be somewhat jealous of Jonathon's gender command and control of the dog. Male groomers do have an ability to control/manage certain dog breeds and dog temperaments better that many female groomers. A fact many in the grooming field don't like. Anyhow control using a soft feminine pat on the head, and sweet talk praise are not for "Terrier" breeds when grooming them.
Treat it like a sentient being and dont get lost in 'instructing'. Read its body language. As nice a groom and technique as it is, that poor dog is stressed. No wonder people see grooming as terrible.
Troy Todd lol that dog isn’t stressed. He’s just distracted. That’s why he was being corrected. If he lets the dog move however it wants the dogs ears or tongue are gunna get cut and you’d be even more pissed 🙄
He is a lousy groomer , there is no compassion for that poor dog he is shaking the hole time and gets treated like a object not a living breathing being , I don't care how much talent you think you have as a groomer if you treat animals like that you shouldn't be anywhere near a dog , I would never let you groom my dog , that dog is traumatized for live , I don't know how the owners can live with them selfs if they saw this
Thank you for this tutorial video on the layered round head. I have it saved and watch it to get it right.
I have paid a lot of $$$ and never learned as much as you have shared. Your talent is amazing!
I really liked this video (except camera was blocked at times). Who is this guy? His instruction was clear and concise - easy to follow. Safety tip for tongue was good - my dog keeps sticking her tongue out to lick - scary! Best grooming video I've seen so far.

The dog is just distracted by everything behind the camera and is being nosy. The guy is correcting him while also keeping the dog still so it doesn’t get hurt.
Finally. This was very helpful. I watched so many clips of other groomers who did not explain it and show it this well.
Fantastic! I learnt the technique so easily. Thank you so much for explaining to us how to style the dog's hair. Just perfect! Cathy Z
Let's remember that these are our pets... Not mannequins.
agree
What does that have to do with anything?

I can't wait to try this :D
How many teeth on the Kenchii thinners?
Wow great tips
What blending shears did you use???
Every Wish or Aliexpress Scissor Was better than the Kenchii I bought. As every expensive scissor.
They are Kenchii Shears. www.kenchii.com
where can I get the kenchii shears?
This guy is too rough with the dog. I don't like him

This little dog is so patient and tolerant, my Westie is the same. What makes me cringe is the scissors around the eyes and ears.
So cute!!!!! 💗🥰🐕🐶🐾
What scissors are you using here? Length and brand?
what blenders is he using?
The most important part is when he rounding the muzzle. Couldnt see a thing.
What Sizzers did u use
What scissors is he using here?
It's a shame the camera angles were so bad, I couldn't see a lot of the fine work but it looks good.
Hi I have Lowchen puppy he’s 10 months old and I have been looking for tutorials on how groom him in a teddy bear cut not a traditional Lowchen have you any tips or experience? Thanks in advice Nicky
camera man is slow. why am i looking at your sleeve?
Gostei dessa técnica de tosar
CAN'T see what you are doing doing! You are in the Way!
why does he use thinning shears to cut wouldn't you just use reg then finish w the thinners to not have definite lines ?
+Julie Suffi - I agree! seems like more work (cutting) than necessary. The time factor could be reduced also. That's important when time is also a factor in competition.

I hope I can do that!... B-)
Does anybody know what blenders/thinners he is using?
+Kylie Yamane He has his own line of shears called Kenchi
Excellent grooming but I couldn't see the important parts because his arms were in the way.

You totally explained why groomers use the thinking schemers to trim aYorkies head! Now I owe another Grooming videoer an apology !,
Poor dog , meanie

Cute and well explained!!! But please be more gentle on them my Yorkie is a rescue pet and even him was not as scared as that poor dog, everybody can see he is terrified and He pulls hir hair eveytime he tries to get away from his shears, more gentle please 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
