I groom my yorkie Teddy all the time. I found he used to come home stressed after being at the groomers so I decided to start doing it myself. As you say practice makes perfect and I'm now pretty comfortable grooming him and he looks pretty good when I'm done! You did a lively job as well! Thanks for the video 💚

That is so awesome. Mine used to get extremely stressed from going to the groomers, and they would always throw up a day or two later. It just wasn't worth it.

We groom our little girl ourselves since we got her @ 9months old. My other Yorkies were groomed by a professional but after a bad experience, I took KZread lessons😉 Great bonding experience, less expensive, and I have assurance that she is safe.

Lola is such a cutie 🥰. I have 2 border terriers and they need hand stripped, it’s a loooooong process. One thing I found helpful was to put a mini floor mat under the dogs because on a surface like a table top they feel like they can’t grip it and move around more as a result. Great job.

This is AWESOME!!! My Daughter is a professional groomer and has 2 Yorkies herself (My GrandBabies) and I let her groom my 2 Yorkies (Daisy, Chocolate female, 7 months @ 4 pounds, and Loki, Parti male, 4 months @ 5 1/2 pounds) She told me that I needed to wait to cut Loki’s hair until he was 6 months old to let all the puppy hair grow out, so that’s what I’m doing… Daisy’s hair is thin and silky and I’m letting it grow long… Loki’s hair is thicker but doesn’t get tangled much because you taught me to comb and brush them everyday or every other day… My Daughter trims their eyes, paw pads and rear end for me… I grind their nails and bathe both them with the Espana Silk Shampoo, Conditioner and I have their Detangler Spray that you had mentioned in your previous videos!!! I absolutely LOVE their products and can’t “Thank You” enough for sharing everything with us!!! Love your channel!!!

Hi: If you google Topline pet you will find the website where I purchased the combs. I believe I have the two smallest combs. The site does not allow me to link directly, but it is a very small site, so you should be able to find just what you are looking for.

I take my dogs to the groomer but it's nice to be able to groom them myself. It's good that Lola is comfortable with you grooming her that's half the battle. It would be nice to show Lola after your groom and after your groomer to show comparison.

I'm an old hair stylist also. I taught myself to cut my dogs, but I now have a Yorkie that is almost 2 and I cut his hair.. You can cut their hair just as well than spending $200 and over for shears and thinning shears, but the clippers would be worth the money. What clippers are you using, this didn't say.

@@MeganGraham he smell like outside and smells like he needs to be bathed and I don't want to bathed him everyday.

Your Yorkie is so cooperative . I try over and over to groom my baby but she only let's me bathe her without a struggle. When I try to clean her eyes she tries to bite ,not hard but she won't stay still and she tries to take the wipe out of my hand. I would try to distract her and give her a treat when she stays still for even a minute. But it's a constant struggle to comb or brush her hair because she constantly tries to bite whatever I have in my hands. She will do this and then want to give me kisses so I will stop trying. She's very smart for being only 7 months old. And omg so very picky when it comes to her food. I've spent so much money on dog food that she will eat it one time to please me I guess. But won't eat it again. I have so much dog food I could probably open up a store 🤣🤣🤣. She won't let me cut,trim or brush her at no time. Only bath time she will allow. So I really don't know how to change this behavior 😕. If you have any helpful suggestions I'm ready to try anything. Oh she also will come to me and growl if I'm not paying attention that she pooped. She is used to me cleaning her butt when she poops. She also watches it flush down in the toilet. If you have any suggestions you can reach me at vlawton52@gmail.com any time

I have a bossy puppy too. He is so much better now but they need to know they aren’t the boss by pushing through in a calm assertive way. It will get easier so just keep at it. And she will eat if she gets hungry! They are smart like toddlers and are good at trying to control us. Mine likes to proudly prance into the bathroom for the flush too😂
