 Shih Tzu

Nicky and the magnificent Sandy take us through the grooming process for this long coated, well maintained little specimen.

Part 1 Here we demonstrate two methods of removing bands from the long Shih Tzu coat. This minimizes damage to the coat.

Part 2 Using a Hydrobath on a long drop coated breed enhances your ability to get the coat clean. Learn how to clean thoroughly without scrubbing to avoid breaking and tangling the coat. Understand why we shampoo twice and condition once!

Part 3 High velocity drying techniques on a long drop coat. Avoid tangling and putting ‘whip knots’ into the coat.

Part 4 This video demonstrates brushing techniques to straighten and stretch the hair. Brush choice along with conditioning sprays and how often this technique should be applied to the show coat.

Part 5 Brushing and combing techniques are crucial to enhancing silkiness and flow to the drop coat. Line brushing techniques, along with the perfect part down the back, will give you a beautiful flow.

Part 6 Scissoring techniques to create a round, natural foot. Techniques to get the best look and flow from the leg to the foot and body, all while keeping the natural look of the Shih Tzu.

Part 7 Banding the top knot and why we do it.

Thank you Sandy!
