Jam-packed full of essential information,
By "indigocoatl" (Austin, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Poodle Clipping and Grooming: The International Reference (Hardcover)
Everything you ever wanted to know about grooming your poodle, from clippers, hairdryers, grooming tables, trimming your dog's nails (*easy*, if you use a Dremel grinder!), pet clips, US/CA show clips, International pet and show clips (truly wonderful stuff there) to advice on setting up your own grooming salon and participating in grooming contests.I now have my second poodle - a show dog - and I'm doing all the basic grooming on her. A miracle, considering that I never laid scissors on a dog before May (and it's now October). I do have a "poodle mentor" who I love dearly - she has taught me much. But I learn well from books, and Kalstone's is excellent. I spent so much time and money schlepping my dear departed one back and forth to and from the groomers - I wish I'd known just how *easy* grooming can be.

A Must Have for All Poodle Owners!,
By Karen B (Fort Wayne, IN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Poodle Clipping and Grooming: The International Reference (Hardcover)
Excellent book that shows exactly how to bathe, groom and clip Show & Pet Poodles. Nice illustrations and pictures for all of the poodle clips. Includes what scissors, clipper, shampoos and other grooming aids to buy. After using this book, I had the confidence to buy professional clippers (I am an amateur) and clip my own Standard Poodle (whom, btw, looks terrific!). I first learned of the book from the library and told my husband we had to own this! *I wish that every breed of dog that needs to be groomed had such an excellent book as this!*

This is an excellent book!,
By Teresa Anderson (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Poodle Clipping and Grooming: The International Reference (Hardcover)
I cannot recommend this book highly enough. It is a must for both professional groomers and for poodle owners who want to groom their pet themselves. There is a wealth of information here which is essential for the proper care of poodles. The selection and care of equipment is expertly detailed and explained. Instructions and illustrations abound not only for clipping, but also the proper care of the eyes, ears and nails is given, in addition to the extensive sections on clipping and caring for both pet clips as well as show coats. I would like to thank the authors for sharing their decades of experience and presenting it in such a well-organized and easy-to-understand manner. Thank you!
