    Why Isn't That Perfect Face Happening? Ep217

    If you've ever asked your groomer, "Why can't you make him look like the dog in the picture?" Or if you're a groomer, "Why aren't my grooms looking like those gorgeous faces that I see other groomers do?" This week, we're talking about why behavior is the key to getting those gorgeous faces. Once we understand how calm, comfortable, and cooperative changes everything about prep work.

    Counterconditioning and Desensitization Basics Ep216

    This week, we're discussing counterconditioning and desensitization. Many groomers misuse these terms, thinking they can simply expose dogs to scary tools or procedures to make them less sensitive, but this often has the opposite effect. We'll explore how to properly implement these techniques to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cooperative during grooming.

    The Bite Scale Ep214

    This week, we're discussing the bite scale. Why do we need to know about the bite scale? We want to know if a dog is trying to hurt us or not, because many of these "bites" are actually warnings. So, we're going to dive into that this week.

    Should You Always End on a Good Note? Ep 213

    Should you always end on a good note? Ooh, I think we've all heard this one before, and the answer is, it depends. We'll talk about why “ending on a good note” isn’t always good training — and how to know when continuing actually makes things worse for the dog.

    OCT 22

    Owner Q & A Ep212

    We're gonna do some owner questions and answers, owner concerns, because as an owner, your dog has grooming and veterinary needs, and sometimes the communication breaks down because owners don't fully understand what we can and cannot do. And sometimes our pet professionals don't have good answers for your concerns. So we're gonna cover a bunch of common ones this week.
