@silverkiss37 5 лет назад

Just remember when you're using thinning sheers, most of the hair that's been cut remains IN the hair... So when you brush the hair afterwards, the amount of hair that comes out is CRAZY!! So you're not just cutting what you see on the sheers, you're cutting much much more! 😘 Thank you so much for this video!! I really needed this and have been waiting for you to do one! I really like the way you guys treat your dogs. I agree with your parenting techniques and always trust you guys and all the help you give us Cavalier lovers!! God bless! 💗 BTW, my advice on the thinning sheers comes from my using them on myself, lol. I have SUPER thick hair and... I can relate, Herky. 🤪😘😘🐾💞 P.S. How old is Milton now? *And great job* The girls look great! Especially Herky. Very natural but clean!

Hi! I’m a professional groomer, a great tip is not to be scared of the strait shears. What I like to do is use them to take off the bulk of the hair. The thinning shears are great of going back in and “erase” the blunt cut. Another thing about the shears be very careful, using them around her bum, under the belly, armpits, face and paw pads. The reason we use clippers around those areas isn’t because it’s easier it’s because it’s safer. There is a lot of thin skin and nipples that can get cut very easily! Also a great tip when your lifting feet and legs, don’t pull away from their body, keep their leg level with the body, it’s a lot more comfortable for them as they hold still more. Your dogs are so cute!!

I also cut my pom's furry paws by myself since there is always dry muds and other gross things stuck in it. You did such a good job for your first full trim ❤👏👍 I have a tip for you if Herky n Milton hate going to groomers, just like my dog, I usually call the groomer and they groom my pup at home, so I can stay close to him to prevent anxiousness and reduce stress. But I only call the groomer when his coat got so long which is about once every 3 months, and I told them to only trim the edges, since I hate those haircuts that looked unnatural like the teddy bear style ( my dog is a Pomeranian btw ) that is why I don't call the groomer that often.☺

I'm going to try to cut her hair myself when her butt hair grows back hahaha! ❤️❤️

@Amydealterrial 5 лет назад

Noooo! That's not how it's done! I am a cavalier show breeder. NO TRIMING for cavalier! I even can accept the potty area. Never on shoulders. Never for nots. You need to search for a good detangler. It took me 5+ dogs and almost 10 years. You need a good detangler and strip the shoulders. Just gently pull the loose air out. It can be time consuming and you can do it for 3 days until you or the dog are tired.

Good for you learning to groom your dog! I have been hacking away at my American Cocker Spaniels for about 20+ years. My sweet friend who got me started in agility and obedience was so encouraging. I have never shown them in conformation so grooming has been a little less intimidating.

@kacie.alexis 3 года назад

Thank you so much!!! The groomer I found wanted $65 which is understandable but due to financial reasons I just can’t swing that! I tried on my own and I agree as well with the thinning scissors! Made it so much easier and it’s really hard to mess up using these! My Otis just did not like the trim around his rectum! Was a fight and I was scared but I got it done!

@GracieMarie011 4 года назад

Anyone know where she got the harness she used to hold the pup up. I have groomed my dogs for 15 years and have a professional sheers and table however I have been unable to find a good harness that keeps then stating up. There is a product out there called the dogupstand but its too expensive for me at the moment. Where could I find this black and red harness? Thanks.

@christynicole7818 5 лет назад

I started cutting my two Cavi's hair over the last year and I half since I haven't found a groomer since my old groomer moved away. Since I already cut my husbands hair I figured I can do it. I thought your video was helpful and the thinning sheers are def. amazing haha I've been using my husbands on the dogs. I actually use a mini shaver for the bottom of their feet and its soooo much easy than scissors since I don't have to worry about cutting them at all. I still leave the grinch feet on top though because I love them. I also shaving their lower bellies with a bigger shaver with a #1 clip.

I have found that using a yoga pilates mat on the table works perfectly for the dog to stand on and it is easy to clean. My dog feels secure standing on it and it doesn't bunch up like the towel.

@adrienav6786 5 лет назад

I NEED to get a pair of thinning shears for my cavalier! I have a male so I usually keep his belly feathers cut pretty short to keep it clean of pee. I also attempted to cut some of his side belly feathers (they drag the grass and get wet in the morning) with blunt scissors and now he looks like he has a bad bowl cut 🙈 anyway, at least it’ll grow back. I also like to cut about an inch or two of tail feathers from the base of the tail to keep it poop free. Seems to help!

@lwthowe 5 лет назад

After you cut with blunt scissors, follow up with thinning shears and you can blend it in pretty well so it doesn't look like a harsh square cut any more. Comb it out as you go because only some of the cut hair stays on the thinning shears. The rest stays caught up in the hair and can be removed with the comb. So alternate between thinning and combing as you go. I think you'll like the results.

@donnagarlitz7916 5 лет назад

I started grooming my Cavalier as a puppy. At that time he didn't like having his feet messed with either. I found getting a big beach towel and sitting on the floor with him helpful. He laid in a position comfortable for him and it was easier to access his feet. It was just a little more relaxiing. I don't know if groomers do this but I find that if the fur under his feet was a little damp it could be easier to cut and I would refine after they were dry. Last, I do use a clipper on him in a few small areas and I found the small ones that use batteries are nice. Being small they get into small areas. I still take him to the groomer 1 or 2 a year for a bath and fake trim. I want him to be familiar with it so he won't be as scared if I absolutely need to take him. Plus my groomer doesn't use crates except with dogs who have issues. She lets them play in a playing area but does provide soft bottom crates if your dog wants to just go nap. You did a great job ! The girls look beautiful.

One of my boys, Danny, won't even let me brush him. The vet suggested that I give him Benadryl approximately 20 minutes before grooming. It seems to help, but I'll up his dose the next time around, as he was still very anxious.

@SJLamb-te3dt 3 года назад

I discovered thinning shears last year! Goodness I love them, I wish I had discovered them years ago when I had a golden retriever! They would be fantastic for keeping a goldens butt floof under control. I use them with my britany to keep his butt floof in check but also to keep his massive ear floof under control. He gets matts behind his ears and keeping it thinned back there goes a long way in preventing matts. If you have a long haired dog I cant reccommend thinning shesrs enough! Do be careful because they are wicked sharp.

@111swampfox 3 года назад

Hi Herky, You are very pretty. What I'd like to know is how to make my king charles have a nice round bum. It is rather difficult to explain but I'll give it a try. The roundness includes from upper portion of the thigh (in the middle of, but still towards the top?) and up over the tail symmetrically. My pooch was groomed like that one time and I really liked it. She looked so cute. Was this achieved by the surrounding hair being cut shorter and then some how shaping that whole bum area with a curved scissors? Would really like to know how this was done. When it comes to the tail, when you make it look like a fan shape is the part of the tail close to the bum shorter or longer than the tip of the tail? Thank you in advance for your effort and time in answering my questions. I really enjoyed watching your videos. Love Always, Patty Teare

@BexMclean97 5 лет назад

It becomes long lol 😂 me being a groomer I personally like that look but lady doesn’t like grinch feet. I’m all for owners keeping their dogs long but it takes a lot of time and commitment to keep it mat free so make your if you are keeping the dog long use a comb through it 2-3 times a day. Depending on the coat and where it is on its development as it can take up to 2 or slightly over 2 to get their full adult coats. Also you need to cut there pads as mud and dirt gets trapped and can cause infections 😊 cavaliers in the show ring are kept trimming free bar the pads if they are cut with scissors like long coated Guinea pigs in showing their show career is over. I hope this helps 😊

@luciusmaximus1169 5 лет назад

I think you did great for a first groom 😀 they looked so beautiful! Groomers do put the dogs in crates after grooming them as it's safer for them as there are other dogs to groom and if the other dog was aggressive it could end in a fight or something.

@herkythecavalier 5 лет назад

Of course it's safer that way, the girls just get anxious! haha

@luciusmaximus1169 5 лет назад

@BexMclean97 5 лет назад

Lucius Maximus I don’t but do that but i only Work one on one with the dogs so they don’t get stressed out when they are here. the only other animals that are in my salon are my ex show guinea pigs and lady I only ever use the crate if have a cross over in clients even then they are only in there for 5 mins max. I like the fact my doggie pals run in to see me when they get groomed ❤️ I love it so much some of them are nervous but they come round. The easiest way to get your dog used to the groomers is after all there puppy vaccines so around 11-12 weeks of age. This way the pup is young enough the noise doesn’t bother the it it doesn’t matter what breed or how much hair they have on them it’s just to get them used to their surroundings and noises as it can be quite scary. Aged 6 months onwards it can be quite difficult to train them to stand and sit nicely on the table so it can actually make them scared of the groomers. If you are thinking of going to a groomers start young, if like herky and Milton you want to groom them yourself that’s also fine cavs in my opinion are the best breed to groom as they are so calm. Other dogs aren’t lol some days it’s like a work out dodging being bitten. I was combing out a tail to a client no knots he just doesn’t like his tail being touched and he turned round and bit my nose 😱 I had to muzzled him for my safety. So yea herky and Milton are very well behaved this particular are dog I have got from over groomers I didn’t train them 😊

It’s not that she doesn’t like anyone touching her legs is that you are pulling on her hair by not holding the pieces you’re trimming with the scissors. To understand better please do the absolute same movement on your hair and see how that feels.

Cutting the big mats always makes me cry!

Chanel Asberry same. The first mat I ever cut from Herky’s ears, I kept. And I still have it!

Great video!! Thanks for sharing :) Here’s a TIP someone shared with me for cutting out mats close to the skin - it works well! 1. Get a flash light (iPhone works well) to highlight the skin to make sure you don’t snip it by accident. 2. Angle the light so it shines through the fur and point slightly towards the dog’s body, you should see the skin light up bright red/pink. 3. Hold the light steady while you cut and only cut things that look completely white (the fur) - it helps to have one person hold the light while a second person can just focus on the cutting. Hope this helps!

Mats are really common behind the ears. My dog has a super big one that's so close to her skin, I can't use tiny scissors or I'll cut her or myself. In the past, I tried using scissors and to protect her I had my fingers in between her skin and the knot of fur and went in with the other hand and cut myself. I was young and didn't know what I was doing, I could have thought it through but I was trying my best with what I had available at the time. Now I try to use the clippers but my girl freaks out and shakes her head, making it very difficult to take care of the mats behind her ears. I want to be a professional dog groomer one day and I really enjoyed this, thanks! ❤️

When you mention the scissors 🙈 it’s so easy to cut the skin and much better to use a electric hair cutter kit. I’ve cut my poor baby and it’s not worth it at all. Please only electric razors. It’s paramount you get your dog used to the razor and being groomed regularly from the age of 2 months so it’s a normal process and not stressful. Love cavaliers! 💕

No judging. LOL. I have groomed/clipped my Standard Poodles for many years-last of 6 is a healthy 13 YO. Have an almost 5 YO tri Cav with heavy coat and very long feathers. I do use thinning shears to reduce her feet and leg feathers in the Winter. I also give her a sanitary clip. I have a mild allergy to her but now hives with it too so am considering clipping her shorter in order to deal with dander easier and bathe her more often. I’ve been checking out Cav grooming videos and find yours kind and reasonable. Since it will be a good long while until we travel, may try a clip and thin. She’s very patient for combing and brushing and doesn’t even mind being on the grooming table for her tummy clip so other than preferring a wash and dry dog (after years of clipping and scissoring)it may be worth it.

Thank you - very helpful information. I liked the idea of holding up the back end with the harness. Herky and Milton are beautiful.

I use aa Pilates Exercise Mat on the table for grooming. It works great. It keeps my dog from sliding on the table and it is easy to clean, roll up, and store away. You can get them at an inexpensive price at TJMAXX or Marshalls.

The next time you want to cut those cheek mustaches down, try using that clipper again but make sure you are clipping in the same direction as his cheek hair is growing. I adjust the clipper height to medium or high before I start - that way you know you won't be cutting too closely. Even then, use a light touch and don't press down too much on the clipper. You have to go slowly and talk to them sweetly as you trim. If they move abruptly, you run the risk of gapping up the side of their faces, so you have to be extra cautious in keeping them still. The sweeter and more reassuring you talk to them, the easier it will be. The end product is absolutely beautiful though.

Hi i just got a cav puppy and he doesnt like to drop his toy 🧸 and will growls at me when try to take it away is it normal? Im worry he is very cute and nice with children and people in general.

@leannerussell8729 4 года назад

Are you ever going to change the channel name? To include Milton or are you going to keep it the same?

@herkythecavalier 4 года назад

No, it stays the same. I answered this question multiple times. But "Herky The Cavalier" is a band name that we want to keep even if we add cavaliers. We can't change a name every time we get a new family member :) It's a brand!

@leannerussell8729 4 года назад

Herky The Cavalier thank you for answering my question! I’m quite new to this channel so I haven’t came across the question before.

When you brush any dog. You won’t catch all the matts jus by brushing. You have to use a comb too because hair can be matted at the roots right next to the skin.

@susancalabro3468 5 лет назад

Thank you for the video on grooming the Cavies. Herky looks exactly like my Cavalier, Anni, same texture and coat as Herky. I think I can do this, I have all the tools, just need confidence. My other Cavalier, Charlie, is Black and Tan, and like Milton is smaller. His coat is straight and very silky, and so very soft. He’s like a stuffed dog. I am going to groom them right now, thanks to your tips!

@shaelynnwilliamsdove9374 5 лет назад

Hi! Love the video! Just looking for advice, I’ve been really looking into getting an emotional support pet because I’m a college student and my housing doesn’t allow animals and would love to get a cavalier but am afraid of what others will think because they’ll know why I have a pet. I also will have to be living with roommates and am worried they’ll get really annoyed. Do you think I should go for it or wait until I graduate? Love you!
