I think, this cocker lines are good for my shih Tzu Caviler. Need help on the bib, and skirt, hair thin no under coat, legs can't be tubes, to thin, but long.

I have just adopted an elderly cocker spaniel lady. Thank you, for the tutorial she needs a sanitary trim badly and her ears are a mess. :-)

My Cocker has Anxiety and groomers have such a hard time with him. I decided to try grooming him myself using your instructions. It took me hours to groom him, but I'm glad I did. He had mats in his paws and ears. I would have never known how difficult it is to cut with mats or how painful it is for the doggy. I appreciate the experience because it was bonding and it made me more aware of his grooming needs. Thank you for empowering pet parents.

I must Say.,, I find this lady SO IMFORMITIVE., Just keep listening ., you learn something new every show., !!! '' SHE'S GREAT "

Man that looks great, a lot better than my cuts on my cockers I just have always shaved them in the summer months and let the look like Wooley mammoths in the winter. I have raised this breed for 30 years they are in my opinion the best breed . We have other breeds of dogs but my loyal spaniels never have let me down.

Where are you located? I would love to do a special episode on this breed?

Hi Tracy. I'm a dog groomer but I'm not associated with this channel: please take the following as just my own experince, not representative of this channel. There's a few reasons a groomer might say a dog is 'too old' for this or that aspect of grooming, but usually it would be a case of 'well, we will prioritise comfort over aesthetics because of health issues (eg, stiff joints)' or 'we might have to do half the groom one day and the rest of the groom a couple of days later so we're not pushing the dog too hard'. If it's a large double-coated dog, for example, they might not be able to stand up long enough to be brushed out after having endured the bath and blow dry; or for a small or medium dog who gets their body clippered, the groomer might have felt that it isn't possible to lift and manipulate their legs safely and comfortably, or might have identified a few specific health issues that would be better handled by a vet. In any of these cases though, the groomer ought to have communicated their specific concerns to you, and they should be clear about what they can and cannot do with this dog and why. If there are health issues that a vet needs to deal with, or behavioural concerns that the owner can work on, the groomer ought to make those very clear. I have occasionally recommended a senior dog be groomed at a salon attached to a vet, when I'm worried about heart or epilepsy or seizures, so that there can be a vet nurse and vet ready to hand in the case of emergency. But usually I prefer to talk to the owner about the dog's individual health needs and how I (since I already have a positive relationship with the dog!) can work to accommodate those issues within the groom - even if it means the groom isn't perfect from the point of view of professional pride. Comfort and happiness are the most important things for older doggos!

This has been a good tutorial, The issue I have is my dog's are antsy 4 month pups. Scissors probably won't be used as much. I have groomed mostly with clippers. They are adjusting!!. I need to know about the cold weather trim.

I have a black/white Cocker Spaniel. I hate seeing them shaved! I like his hair on his head long. It's silky and beautiful.

Hi beautiful work can you make a video where telling us how use blending scissors for the jakett. Sorry for my english 😉

Wow, I have been watching one after another in how to groom my two Cocker Spaniels both are Buff and from the same awesome Cocker Spaniel Kennel in Montana. I have been grooming my Cocker Spaniels before this year, but it was pretty easy due to skin issues etc. it was basically a 10 blade all over. My two girls now are 22 weeks and 11 weeks and I need some help so here I am. The Breeder that I was lucky enough to find, shows Cocker Spaniels and starts grooming them at 8 weeks old. I'm taking your video's one at a time and trying my lucky at grooming Cassie the older of the two. I seem to have a problem with getting the face trimmed right as I want her eye lashes but afraid of being too close with the rest of her face especially coming down between the eyes and trimming under the eyes. She is still teething, so she has the runny eyes, and everything keeps gathering below the eye and nose no matter how many times I wipe her eyes daily. Do you have an email I could send you a few pictures of what I am talking about? She is a beautiful Cocker Spaniel and the only one of the litter that no one wanted for a show dog because of her being petite all over. I love her she is so regal just raising her head and looking at you with those dark brown eyes. I would love any feedback you could give me on grooming her and her little sister (not really blood line wise but from same Kennel) who needs to be started on grooming. Thank you for your time.

@GoGroomer

Great question:) I wash, brush and fluffy dry most every dog breed before any clipper work. It removes all dander, dead coat and grime from the skin and coat to produce better, smooth-clipper work as well as precise scissor finish work. I use a hair vac system so hair clippings are collected when clipping but if I didn't use that system, the dogs shake immediately upon grooming completion which rids the coat of the tiny hair fragments. I've groomed dogs for many years with and without a hair vac system and this has always been my procedure to produce a professional look. Tip: you can also turn a force dryer on low and whisk away hair clippings at the end of the grooming session too:) Hope this helps❤️

Hi, just found this video. i have a cocka/Jack, she has a very simular coat to this spaniel, she's 14mnths old. she is groomed by a groomer regularly but she has the crest on her head, doesn't look like a spaniels and it always sticks up.

Hello! I just had a quick question…in the video you use straight scissors to trim the paws (I have the same brand scissors as you…love them!).

You can perform the same work with a straight shear. Curved is easier if you are not used to using shears around the feet.

Just curious, why do you use the snap on combs as opposed to say a 3F or 4F, etc... I currently have an Oster A5 Turbo clipper (which I hate) but on Wednesday I have the Wahl KM10 coming! I’m holding off on grooming my two Havanese girls till then. The blades I own are 40, 30, 10, 3F and 4F. I also have a couple of sets of snap on combs but they are the plastic ones, not stainless.

Congrats on getting the Wahl KM 10...You will love it:) You can use a 3F or 4F on the head instead of the snap on combs.

Happy Trimming on Wednesday:)
