Quinns a poodle now

I found a groomer that assured me she always tries to avoid the complete shave down but when I went to pick up Quinn at first glance I thought he was laying on the floor by the grooming table but on…Continue
Quinn's first grooming questions?
Started this discussion. Last reply by Rebecca Apr 23. 9 Replies 0 Favorites
Our black muppit is in need of his first grooming. He is almost 11 months old. I have been bathing him but his coat is so thick I can't get down to the skin with the brush, comb, or any of the tools…Continue

Quinn is 9 mos. and acts like he is starving. We feed him a high grade kibble. Two cups twice a day. I worry that he may need more. There are some doggie treats now and then but not too often.Your…Continue

Quinn is an amazing big black bear. And I mean big. We met his very tall poodle mommy and his very sturdy golden daddy when we picked him up as a puppy. We expected our boy to be a big one. He…Continue

Willow and J replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinns a poodle now"I am sorry to hear this. We actually have Willow's coat short all year around (1-2 inches) and just got her groomed for 0.5 inch, so having short coat itself isn't a bad thing. Itching, on the other hand, is a serious concern, more so if…"
Ginny Nightingale replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinns a poodle now"By the way, when I groom, I dilute the shampoo way down--when they use it full strength, it not only irritates the skin, but it leaves the residue Adrianne talked about--that is something to ask about."
Nicky, Riley & Boris replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinns a poodle now"Posts like this one are all too common and I always want to ask. 'What did you say to the Groomer when you picked your pup up?' Did you voice your anger at what had been done? Did you call to say that you now have a dog with razor burn or…"
Kyoko replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinns a poodle now"Poor thing.... They must shaved him pretty close... He must have got the razor burn...."
Adrianne Matzkin replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinns a poodle now"When Samantha and I were at the vet's last week, I told him she was chewing her back a bit. He ran his hands through her coat and he told me there was shampoo residue all over her which was probably making her itch. I did the same thing and…"
Ginny Nightingale replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinns a poodle now"Might be razor burn too if she went very close to the skin. I don't know how old Quinn is, but the roughest grooming is right around 10-12 months of age when they go thru a transition to an adult coat---lots of times there is more matting under…"
Lynda Kamrath replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinns a poodle now"Yes, I'm sure he is itchy from the grooming. It may also be a reaction to the soap that she used, so maybe give him a soothing bath with a baby shampoo or other soap that has worked for you in the past. Good news is that it grows…"
Heather, Rocky & Quinn posted a discussionQuinns a poodle now
I found a groomer that assured me she always tries to avoid the complete shave down but when I went to pick up Quinn at first glance I thought he was laying on the floor by the grooming table but on second look what I was looking at was Quinns beautiful coat in a heap. The groomer managed to save some of his beard and mustache and tail but he is shaved very close now. I was hoping he would feel better but since he came home he has been biting at himself, mostly around the base of his tail. I…See More
Rebecca replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinn's first grooming questions?"You do not need to shave him down. My 2 year old Max is like this and I self groom him. All you need to do is use your fingers as a guide and scissor cut him down. After you scissor cut him down the mats should be easier to get…"
Kelly replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinn's first grooming questions?"Skeet gets really Woolley. Love the muppet look but shaving is a necessity for him. It is less stressful for him and grows back really fast. He feels so much better without all that hair and acts silly too. We jut try to make sure they leave the…"
Nancy, Ned, and Clancy replied to Heather, Rocky & Quinn's discussion Quinn's first grooming questions?"He is darling. It looks to me very much like my Ned's coat. Ned matted badly from about 8 months until almost 2 years. We had to brush/comb him every other day gradually decreasing to every 3 days and now we can go a week or…"
