    How do you get the dog to sit still? Mine freaks out and flops around everywhere.

      Hi, nice to hear from you! Oh no, you've got a wiggly pup (which is common!) But you can usually rehabilitate (most) pups with positive reinforcement and building up the time that you spend doing a grooming task - like face trims. My advice is to just start working on face holds for just a few seconds and then reward when your pup reacts calmly. Then introduce a benign object (like an old toothbrush) to start touching his face with the [toothbrush] while holding the face with the other. Stop, reward, repeat. Some dogs are very challenging (I know!), but there's almost always a way to get through it. Hope that helps and good luck! 🙏

    Could you please do this with a poodle?

      Hi Poodle Mama (me too!) 😄 Sure, I can certainly work on a Poodle face workshop, thanks 4 the suggestion! The good news is that the holds demonstrated in this video are pretty universal for most breeds (except the chin hold on a Poodle clean face, for sure!), but I use the others for my Poodles all the time. Thanks so much for watching and for your comment! 🐩🐾
