I am not a groomer and I will be taking B7 to a trained groomer but between visits I'd like to be able to trim his nails myself, trim the hairs by his ears, between the pads on his feet, and trim the hair by his eyes if it ever gets too long between visits to the groomer. (this depends on a lot of patience, and trust between myself and B7 which we will build over time.
I've known that brushing, and combing is really important with curly breeds but one of the things I heard recently is that some groomers are taught to pluck the hairs out of the ears of poodles and poodle crossed dogs. I've only heard this from one source so far, and have to do some more research, but to me that sounded unnecessary. If I can keep the hair around and under his ears short then it shouldn't need to be plucked which could potentially cause infections. It also sounds needlessly painful... poor dogs.
More research to be done!
