Download or read book Going to the Dogs written by Jan Nieman and published by New Chapter Pub. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jan Nieman decided to become a mobile pet groomer, little did she know what a wild ride she was in for. Over the next 21 years, she tussled with feisty pets, wrestled with stubborn vans, chased down AWOL dogs, and learned to cope with wayward employees. Grooming more than her share of dogs and cats, not to mention the occasional wolf, she encountered a host of memorable animals and owners, that often matched their pets in style, temperament and unconventionality. In her no-holds-barred, hilarious account, Nieman not only shares the high points of her adventures, as well as the occasional horror 'tails' that are an inevitable part of a groomer's career. Through it all, her love and passion for animals shines forth from every page. By the end, after plenty of laughs, you'll know a good deal more about orphan pets, what goes on in the inner sanctum of mobile and brick-and-mortar grooming salons, and the joys and tribulations of owning a business that keeps you "going to the dogs."
Download or read book Dog Grooming Simplified written by Jodi Murphy and published by . This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jodi has been well respected as an educator in the grooming industry for many years. She is one of the top pet stylists in the world winning multiple titles included World Grand Champion and Best American Groomer. She is here to share her knowledge in this extraordinary book.With over 190 breeds recognized by the American Kennel Club along with individual breed-specific grooming instructions, it can become very overwhelming for new groomers to retain the information. Straight to the Point is the solution to learning about pattern lines, which simplifies the learning process. Whether the patterns are set tight or left more natural, the patterns are set in the same fashion. Once a groomer understands basic patterns he or she will be able to groom any breed with ease.The dogs pictured in this book are top winning show dogs presenting the correct profile according to their breed standards. Jodi chose to illustrate this way for several reasons. First, a show dog presents an excellent representation of the breed and how it should be groomed per the breed standard. Second, the reader will be able to see the realistic depth and dimensions of the coat. Last, it will give the reader a vision of the pattern in a realistic view and will be a great reference source when grooming each breed.Once the groomer understands correct pattern placement, it can easily be applied to pet trims. A pet dog does not have to be groomed using show techniques, i.e., hand stripping, to present the proper breed profile. With proper pattern placement and techniques described in this text, the groomer will be able to present a well-balanced, well-blended pet trim to the pet owner.

Download or read book The Art of Grooming written by Jun Sun Yun and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-13 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dog grooming plays an enormous role in the well-being and happiness of our beloved pets. My intention for writing this book is to enrich your grooming experiences, and enhance the relationships you have with your dogs. Rather than focus on the techniques and tools, I focus on the principles and intentions. Even though we groom dogs to help them, if it is against their will or if we cause them unintentional damage, we must be willing to reconsider our actions. This book will provide a new perspective on dog grooming, and explain how changing the way we view dog grooming can help us achieve a calm, positive experience. “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change” Wayne Dyer. This is the Art of Grooming. Thank you so much for reading!

Download or read book 4 Steps to a Beautiful Groom written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-12-24 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grooming is "Love in Action." Nature has provided a way for us to show our dogs in a very clear and obvious way that we care about them. We are telling them that we love them in a way that they will clearly understand. By brushing them regularly, and keeping their skin feeling good, we are repaying them for all that they do for us. We must work with Mother Nature, and Nature requires our time and effort. My intention for writing this book is to simplify the grooming process into 4 simple steps that will be easy to understand. The steps that I will explain in this book will be easy to understand, but it will take time and effort to apply the knowledge. "Knowing is not enough, you must apply; willing is not enough, you must do" Bruce Lee. My dream is to create awareness on the importance of properly grooming our dogs. Rather than think, "My dog smells, I should wash him," we can instead think to ourselves, "My dog smells, I have to brush him."
