Grooming Khaleesi

Hello guys,


Today I groomed my baby beast. She was a mess! So I trimmed her face and cleaned her tear stains and I use a coat whitening shampoo for her. This time I am only giving her a face trim and a good brush, but once a month I have to give her a full on haircut, and I use buzzers for that.

Today I will be brushing her, then trimming her face, and taking care of her tear stains.

First, I remove her collar.

Oh, so dirty.

 I use this fine bristled brush to brush by Hartz and fluff Khaleesi. And, this is silly, and may be irrelevant, but for some reason, I always blow on her when I brush her. It's subconscious really. I doubt it helps her dry faster when I do wash her, but I do it none-the-less.

I then rub Diamond Eye on her tear stains. I have found that this product works, but maybe you have found something different, let me know if you have found a tear stain remedy!

Then I take the time to really brush her all over and get her really fluffy.

Now comes the really fun part.

I use these small dog grooming shears to cut around her eyes and nose. I trim her eyebrows so she can see, and I trim out her mustache so that she doesn't have this giant muzzle and she can see clearly, and I carefully trim the top of her nose. She has freckles on her nose that I love to display because I think they are adorable. I trim just a tiny bit off the top of her head and then I am done. I brush her over again and then let her go shake. I follow her around for a bit making sure that her face and head is even and then she is free to go.

While doing this, I wear junk clothes because you do get wet and furry and tear-stained yuckiness falls on you. It's easier for me to just take off my junk clothes and put on some normal ones.

I also put her collar back on just in case she decides to bolt out the door.

I will be posting about how to clean a German Shepherd's ears and brush their teeth next week.

Hope you enjoyed this, and if you have any questions, let me know.
