How a dog gets professionally bathed, featuring Remy the Alaskan Klee Kai/Pomeranian mix!
Wanna see the entire grooming process for a double coat bath and tidy (minus the bath 🙈)?
Mickey is one of my favorites, and a monthly regular. Here you can watch his entire before and after! He doesn't get a full haircut, but I do shape up his backside since he doesn't let mom or dad brush it.
In case you've ever wondered what a groomer uses, I attached a pic of all the tools and supplies I used on Mickey! Whether you want to home groom, are a new pro groomer, or just curious, here is what I used:
▪️Hyponic Grooming Artist Deep Cleanse and Volume 2 in 1 shampoo
▪️Hyponic Hinoki Cypress Ear Cleaner
▪️Hyponic Hinoki Cypress Detangling Mist
▪️Wahl KM Cordless w/ #10 blade for sanitary and paw pad shave
▪️oneisall 5 in 1 clipper for skimming back feathers
▪️Loyalty Pet Products 7" Starter Shear chunkers for back feathers and feet
▪️ Chris Christensen Big G (coral) Brush in large
▪️Chris Christensen 35mm Oval Pin Brush
▪️10" Greyhound Comb (can't remember brand)
▪️ Musher's Secret for paw pads
▪️Chris Christensen Cherry & Oats cologne

🚨Disclaimer: this dog is shaved per instructions by a veterinarian to help with allergies. Obviously if it's for a medical reason, groomers will gladly oblige🚨
Contrary to popular belief, shaving a double coated dog not only doesn't stop the shedding, it actually makes it worse. You might just think the dog isn't shedding as much anymore because the shed fur is shorter and much more likely to just impact and stay on them.
Impacted fur and removing that top coat = hotter in the summer and colder in the winter because there isn't a good quality air pocket between the protective top coat and their skin anymore.
So, save yourself the time and money and stop causing permanent damage to your dog's double coat by not shaving it!
✨Second disclaimer: Before someone asks "well what about wire coats and spaniels? Those are double coated and they're shaved all the time!" They are not traditional double coats. Their coats already don't shed naturally without human intervention via handstripping. So while shaving them isn't the best, most owners can't afford handstripping and most groomers don't offer the service. These coat types are less likely to develop clipper alopecia. Shaving their coat usually just dulls the color and makes the hairs finer/softer in texture.✨
