As
far as combing and grooming go, I am not a professional,
as you can see on my site. just look at the teddy
bear dams and sire.
But what i do know, with the
teddy bear and shichon breeds they don't shed so you
need to comb them almost daily or they matt. also
they hate that wire brush! just get a few plastic
black combs. they like those.
make sure you bath them weekly use a good oatmeal
bath, don't use cheep stuff you don't want to dry
out there hair.
make sure you brush there teeth,
clip there nails, and pull the hair out of there ears.
all this stuff can be bought at petco or walmart.
the teddy bear breed and the
shichon both grow there hair back all the time, so
if you give them a bad cut don't stress, it'll grow
back, and it will get better. Let them smell the stuff
your using, and ok it, talk to them and pet them,
take it slowly and make it an enjoyable experience.
you ll notice after they are
done they'll prance around and showoff to the other
dogs.
The grooming PDF set on our
website is not mine, or i would offer it free. but
it dose have some great pointers.
you can always send
them to a stranger and they would look better. but
i find it more comfortable and rewarding on both sides
to try yourself, plus you save tons of money.
