The Wonderful World Of Terriers

How to Groom a Miniature Schnauzer

Posted by Kimberly on March 20th, 2009

Ever wonder how professional groomers get your terrier looking so darn good when you pick them up?

I know I have…

So, I thought I’d organize a trip for our terriers to see the groomers @ Poodle Fluff & Puff Dog Salon, Joan Schoures and Debra Deiter. They agreed to show us just how your dog comes out looking like $1 million!

They have been grooming all of our dogs for the past 27 years, and we just love them!

If you want to learn to groom your own dog, or even if you’re just “knosey” to see how the pros clip those beautiful schnauzer eye brows and beards, watch this video that Joan and Debbie were so gracious to do for our Terrier Lovers, featuring one of our minis, Knosey Konversation:

All 5 of our pooches came home looking beautiful, sleek bodied with fluffy legs and big beautiful eyebrows and beards! They actually looking like terriers after that long winter of growing their hair!

They are enjoying themselves outside with the wind a little closer to their skin when they run and soaking up the sunshine…LOL…You can tell they feel so much better and refreshed.

Special thanks to Poodle Fluff & Puff Dog Salon – 93 Carlton St., St. Catharines, Ontario, L2R 1R1, Canada. You can call to make appointments @ (905) 688-6200 or email debdeiter@cogeco.ca
