Thank you for the video! This is so helpful! I groom at home and one thing I can say is it's more tiring than it looks! Kudos to you guys and gals who do it all day!!
I groom mine at home. I recently purchased a new clipper, and carefully did a full body groom on my soft coated wheaten terrier. I don’t do the nails yet. It is definitely exhausting on the back if you don’t have a grooming table. What use to take me 3 hours now I do in about 2 hours! Thanks for the videos. They really helped!
Thanks for the video, I've been grooming my Wheaten Terrier for awhile, it really does take practice. I was ready to give up, but this video has given me some tips about what might make it easier. I didn't realize how important it is to have my dog well brushed. I will try that.
I love your videos. I've watched them numerous times. They help me so much. I'm getting ready to groom my wheaten today. I'm going to bathe her first. Blow dry her then brush her out. I use clippers with combs as well. My toughest part is her nails. I bought a nail groomer too but still not comfortable with the nails.
Thanks for the video! I've tried grooming my wheaten at home before, unsuccessfully. This time around I'll have a grooming table, clippers, and grooming scissors instead of on my knees with my junk drawer scissors. Hoping this time around is more successful!
first of all, Mabel is a dead ringer for my dog, Beatrice. I have been trimming her pads and feet for sometime now between professional groomings but have decided to start doing her groomings myself. This was an excellent tutorial.
Hi Brian! Thanks for watching and for your comment:) I hope it goes well please keep us posted and if you have any questions let us know and we are happy to help!
Beautiful. That is a great vitial❤ will watch over and over again because my grooming has gotten too expensive for me, not that she deserves it because it’s getting to be too much for me. Thank you so very much for your patience
Thank you so much for your kind words Teri!! I hope you home groom with Gracie went well! If you have any questions please let us know and we are happy to help :)
Hello! Thank you so much for this. I have what I think is. Wheaten/husky mix that I rescued from the shelter a couple months ago. I've been taking her to the groomer but I'm going to try grooming her at home. This video looks very helpful.
I have a wheaten and this is the look I have been wanting. Last time I took him to a groomer they made him so poofy I did not like it, plus I wanted to learn how to groom him to save some $$! thanks for the video. Will let you know how it turns out. I feel confident from watching this!
Thanks so much for commenting and to hear you feel confident grooming after watching! Yes, I personally love wheatens cut on the shorter side as well. They look so adorable! Please keep us posted on how your first groom goes :) If you have any grooming questions please let us know and we are happy to help answer them! Happy grooming!
Update: this was so helpful! It works because my pup really trusts me around his more sensitive areas (especially his ears and feet). He’s gotten feisty with groomers in the past. So glad I watched this prior to doing his home groom. I think it came out pretty good! I’ve gotten compliments AND now he really looks like a wheaten and not a curly golden doodle🤣. thanks for the tutorial!
@@debevoisej Hi John. Thanks for updating us! That is amazing news!! It really helps when your dog trusts you and can be calm especially when you are grooming around the sensitive areas. Congrats on completing your first groom and getting compliments!! You should be proud of yourself and we are so glad we could help in making your first groom a success! If you have any future grooming questions let us know :)
Thanks! Very helpful. I thought I would try the first groom on my 3 month puppy since I wanted to acclimate him to tools and being touched before bringing him to a strange place and new person, plus he's still finishing his vaccine cycle. Got most of him done with breaks throughout the day. Very helpful, I think he will be more ok with going to a groomer eventually now that he's used to it. Or maybe with practice I'll get better at it and keep grooming at home. Thank you!
Hi there thanks for watching. Yes that’s awesome that you are exposing him to all the noises and equipment. That’s so important when they are young for the dogs sake as well as the groomer. A lot of people make the mistake and then bring the dog in for grooming at a year old and it’s beyond stressful for everyone.
Thank you so so much for your comment!! That made our week hearing that it was so helpful :) I hope the groom went well and if you ever have any questions please let us know!
I just got my wheaten lab mix and I am gonna attempt the at home grooming with him using this guide. Thank you for this video thank you.! I will let you know how it goes.!
Thank you for this video. I’m not sure what breed my dog is but is very similar to a wheaten and this is really helpful in improving her home-grooms :)
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! We are glad to hear it was helpful. I hope your grooming at home goes well and if you have any questions let us know, we are happy to help :)
Thank you for posting! My Wheaten is a very anxious little girl and has gotten to the point where going to a groomer just isn't an option. I'm going to try grooming at home! I've done scissor cutting at home and she tolerated that fairly well, so I'm hoping she'll let me use clippers on her. Fingers crossed!
Hi Lindsay that is for watching. Wheatens can be nervous but the more they are groomed the better and some like any breed will never like it. The shorter the groom the better so keeping your pups coat in good condition will help her tolerate the grooming.. wheatens can be stubborn and anxious. I have owned many and groom a ton so i totally relate to what you are saying. Good luck!🐶❤️
Thank you so much for posting this video. This is the look I like for my wheaten, too. We’re giving the second home groom at attempt this weekend. First one went well, just hoping it wasn’t beginners luck!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Please let us know how the groom went :) If you have any questions please let us know and we are happy to help!
Thanks for the video. Have been grooming my Wheaten in a similar cut. Couldn't keep up with combing to avoid matting, so a shorter cut works. He's still a cutie. Question, what length comb did you use on Mabel's head? Was it the 5/8 or the 1/2 inch?
I do my two Irishdoodles at home after having a disastrous groom which has left my little girl very skittish. She came home with red scratches on her lady parts and had obviously been clippered before all knots were out, she used to get little spider knots, just enough to stop the clipper. She looked a complete mess. Continued use of conditioner and keeping her reasonably short has stopped that. Both of them hate having their feet and faces blown dry so the grooming happens in stages, wash, dry, rest and let face dry, then cut. I've never done a sanitary trim with clippers, I will do that next time. Thank you for giving me more tips and confidence.
Thanks so much for your feedback. That’s awesome that you are grooming them on your own. It can be a lot of work. Most dogs really don’t like their faces being dried so I normally keep the dryer on a very low setting and try and keep the head as still as possible. Fluffing out the coat and drying completely is a really significant part of the groom and you will be much happier with the results. Let me know how the sanitary goes. The first few times don’t go too close to the skin until you build your confidence because you don’t want any reaction on the skin and it’s easier when the dog has no matting. You don’t run as much of a risk of nicking the skin. Good luck and let me know how you make out!😊
/we rescued a 4 year old wheaton and we live i mesa az. he does bite so the vet gave us a prescription to mellow him out he hates his feet touched but enjoys his bath as long as you dont pick him up any sugestions?
I have wheaten australian shepard mix. This is the first winter I let her hair grow long, she is beautiful.But we live in Florida so now is the time to get those new clippers out and give them a whorl. Thank you for taking the time to do the video; it helped a lot. I need to watch the video on nail clipping as well. could you recomend a slicker brush; I have tried the straight pins,the bent pins and the pins with little balls on the end. They don't like any of them
Hi Tammy, thanks so much for watching and commenting! We are going to do a slicker brush review but I use the medium bristle bent at the ends. What it is that isn’t working about the slicker brushes you have used before? is the brush fully going through the coat? It could be that the bristles on the brush are not hard enough? Let us know and we are happy to help you find something that works for you.
Hi Mary! Thank you for watching:) Yes, we have heard this from other people as well and I even tried to get a new KM10 and was having the same problem. I really do like the KM10 so I would wait for that one and try to not settle for something else. I will be doing a clipper review video soon so stay tuned for that!
So the blade doesn’t cut the dog? I groom my dog, and I am always afraid to do her feet this way. I use scissors instead. My Wahl stopped cutting and it gets stuck. I oiled the blades, but maybe they need sharpening.
Hi there thanks for watching. You always have to be careful because the blade can definitely cut flaps of skin if you don’t pay attention. The feet have webbing so always be extra careful and always make sure you are using the proper blade. You have to go with your comfort level for sure
The dog looks nice after the groom, but this groom really is what is done on a Doodle (except for the shaving of the ears, since Doodle ears are long), and has nothing to do with the groom for the specific breed: Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, which is what I was looking for.
I see, and understand what you mean. Especially since doodles are so common, and thus there are videos, TikTok's, etc all showing the cute and fluffy doodles, this is what everyone wants.
Are there combs longer than that? Like a one inch or even a two inch? I prefer my Wheaten to be shaggy but in a nice way. I am also sensitive to heat so we live in AC comfort. When we travel, like the beach, I get him professionally groomed shorter but since I never like the results I want to learn myself. I see lots of advice for the shorter cuts. What about the longer, winter coat lengths?
Hi… yes there are comb attachments that are 1 inch and one a bit longer. Comb attachments can only be used properly if the dog is completely mat free or they won’t go through the coat.
Sorry, another question... I brush my dog out before going to the groomer. It takes me like an hour or more to do this. I am careful about any close to the skin and everything. Then at the groomers they claim he was matted! I think they just don't understand Wheaten fur. They bath him and he gets matted again! Their fur easily does this but at home I brush before and after baths and it is significantly less after the bath. My question is do groomers consider fur types and take that into account before chopping the fur closer than customer asks? I dread the groomers because of this. Want to learn myself now.
Hi thanks for your question don’t ever be sorry. I find a lot of people think their dogs aren’t matted but they are. Make sure when you brush that you can run a metal comb through the coat while it’s running against his skin. Many people brush the top of their dogs but not to the skin. Have you watched how to brush your dog video we have?
@@FurryFriendsZone Yes I did. I always comb to the skin. I have had many dogs and several breeds. Worst was Samoyeds my father had. They blew their fur so much we had to brush them for a week straight twice a year!
Thanks for asking this question Tammy. There are actually harnesses that help to hold the back end of a dog up when they are being groomed. I would suggest going on Amazon and type in dog grooming harness and there are lots of different ones that come up and you can find the one that works best for the size of your dog and the set up you have for grooming. Hope that helps! If you have any other questions let us know :)
Hi Lia, thanks for watching and commenting. In this video I am using my Wahl KM10 clipper. I did a full review of this clipper on our channel as well. ruclips.net/video/zChR-FSZM7c/видео.html Its a great clipper!
Hello! Thanks for commenting. I breed wheatens and groom a ton of them and most customers like them clipped this way and some like the traditional wheaten clip. The traditional wheaten clip can be more difficult for people grooming at home to do so we try to make our at home grooming videos as easy as possible for people to follow but ultimately it is all personal preference. I will be doing a video on how to do the traditional wheaten clip as well so stay tuned for that :)
@@margaretlemmon1143 Thank you so much for watching and commenting. We are glad it easy to follow along. If you have any specific questions please let us know! :)
I stayed and watched your whole video I felt you were a little rough with your dog when you were moving her from one end to the other you weren't being nice and gentle plus the fact you could tell your dog she didn't snap out at you but she look like she wasn't too satisfied with the way you were treating her she's very well-behaved dog plus the fact we don't want to hear about how you've worked all day long and then want to groom your dog this is what job you've decided to do not just that but you should make your dog look the best that it can for your business not care whether she looks good or not or whether she's been bathed the day before you need to look at yourself and listen to yourself from a customer's point of view and I can tell you you were not looking at it from a customer's point of view I do see how some of these dogs do come away from groomers that have been miss manhandled like mine she came home and she wouldn't even come near me for 2 days it's because of groomers like you guys and now I do it myself not because she's matted is because of the manhandling she gets from groomers like you guys yes this is not a positive feedback
Thanks for your lovely feedback. You clearly have a ton of time on your hands to send a lengthy long winded critical message. You have a right to your opinion but maybe you should find something better with your time then sending something like this. We have had many excellent kind comments. I have been grooming for 20 years and I’m not going to waste one second trying to justify or explain anything to you. I hope you find some happiness and peace with yourself. Cheers ❤️🐶❤️
Unfortunately, you did not start with Wheaten Terrier, and did not end with a Wheaten Terrier. The classic beautiful standard trim for a Wheaten should have the lovely "Fau" over the eyes, and the ears should be trimmed almost to the leather. The head shape should be rectangular (almost like a brick shaped). There is a show cut - which is strictly following the AKC/CKC standard, and there is the pet cut - which take a little bit of liberty with the more stringent rules, to make the appearance more family friendly. But this is taking it too far. The result is no longer a wheaten terrier. Very disappointing to see people who don't like the Wheaten look, want to have Wheaten Terriers and change them into some other creatures.
Hi there thanks for watching. Being a groomer I have to accommodate everyone’s wishes and to be honest most people with wheatens don’t really want the standard clip. I have to clip their dog as per their requests and everyone has different likes and dislikes ❤️🐶❤️
This is the worst grooming of a wheaten Ive seen. I groom my wheatens to actually look like a Wheaten. When this video is done the dog looks nothing like a wheaten should. No fall over the eyes no beard under the chin. Just awful
Thanks so much for watching and your comment. I groom a ton of wheatens I also own them and breed them. Yes you’re right it’s not a show clip but 90 percent of wheaten owners prefer this cut on their dog.
I'm sorry to leave a negative comment but this dog certainly looked better when it came in. Even with a pet trim I wouldn't dream of sending a dog out like this let alone posting it public on RUclips I'd be embarrassed. I know owners choose some stupid looks but a groomer should advise what would look best because your work is your advertisement to others when the owners are walking their dog.
Hi Sara, thanks so much for watching and we appreciate your comment. I groom hundreds of wheatens and I also breed them. Everyone that owns a wheaten chooses what hair cut they prefer for their dog. I always make suggestions but the way they get their own dog groomed is ultimately their choice not mine and I always do my best to make my clients happy.
Miserable comment. People who own these dogs want them to be comfortable. Wheaten's get very hot, are prone to hot spots and need lots of excercise. They are hard to keep clean and some people like checking their fur for ticks, prickers, etc. Don't insult someone and begin by saying you don't mean to. This groomer is terrific and showed us the most popular cut. There's no need for rude comments.
Thanks for watching! We would love to know if you have ever tried grooming at home? And if so how did it go?!
Thank you for the video! This is so helpful! I groom at home and one thing I can say is it's more tiring than it looks! Kudos to you guys and gals who do it all day!!

There does not seem to understand grooming to breed standard:(
I was excited to see that my wheaten terrier ended up looking almost exactly like yours... granted the entire process took me over 6 hours 😅

I would suggest going on Amazon and type in dog grooming harness and there are lots of different ones that come up and you can find the one that works best for the size of your dog and the set up you have for grooming.

Hi Lia, thanks for watching and commenting. In this video I am using my Wahl KM10 clipper. I did a full review of this clipper on our channel as well. ruclips.net/video/zChR-FSZM7c/видео.html Its a great clipper!
@@FurryFriendsZone How is a Wahl dog clipper different from regular Wahl clipper for cutting a man’s hair? Could it be used on a man?
That's not the way they supposed to look.....😂
I'd have a fit!
Hello! Thanks for commenting. I breed wheatens and groom a ton of them and most customers like them clipped this way and some like the traditional wheaten clip. The traditional wheaten clip can be more difficult for people grooming at home to do so we try to make our at home grooming videos as easy as possible for people to follow but ultimately it is all personal preference. I will be doing a video on how to do the traditional wheaten clip as well so stay tuned for that :)
@@FurryFriendsZone thank you for sharing your expertise and making it easy for the home groomer
@@margaretlemmon1143 Thank you so much for watching and commenting. We are glad it easy to follow along. If you have any specific questions please let us know! :)
@@FurryFriendsZone What brand clipper are you using?
You do tape ups?!?
Thanks for commenting! Do you mean tape up for the ears?
This is how I do our puppers....just note that it's not a traditional wheaten cut.
NO WHEATEN BEARD OR BANGS?!
Hi there no not on this one. To be honest I groom a ton of wheatens and the majority just want same length all over not a shoe clip. ❤️🐶❤️
@@FurryFriendsZone Thanks for the response!
I stayed and watched your whole video I felt you were a little rough with your dog when you were moving her from one end to the other you weren't being nice and gentle plus the fact you could tell your dog she didn't snap out at you but she look like she wasn't too satisfied with the way you were treating her she's very well-behaved dog plus the fact we don't want to hear about how you've worked all day long and then want to groom your dog this is what job you've decided to do not just that but you should make your dog look the best that it can for your business not care whether she looks good or not or whether she's been bathed the day before you need to look at yourself and listen to yourself from a customer's point of view and I can tell you you were not looking at it from a customer's point of view I do see how some of these dogs do come away from groomers that have been miss manhandled like mine she came home and she wouldn't even come near me for 2 days it's because of groomers like you guys and now I do it myself not because she's matted is because of the manhandling she gets from groomers like you guys yes this is not a positive feedback
Thanks for your lovely feedback. You clearly have a ton of time on your hands to send a lengthy long winded critical message. You have a right to your opinion but maybe you should find something better with your time then sending something like this. We have had many excellent kind comments. I have been grooming for 20 years and I’m not going to waste one second trying to justify or explain anything to you. I hope you find some happiness and peace with yourself. Cheers ❤️🐶❤️
Unfortunately, you did not start with Wheaten Terrier, and did not end with a Wheaten Terrier. The classic beautiful standard trim for a Wheaten should have the lovely "Fau" over the eyes, and the ears should be trimmed almost to the leather. The head shape should be rectangular (almost like a brick shaped). There is a show cut - which is strictly following the AKC/CKC standard, and there is the pet cut - which take a little bit of liberty with the more stringent rules, to make the appearance more family friendly. But this is taking it too far. The result is no longer a wheaten terrier. Very disappointing to see people who don't like the Wheaten look, want to have Wheaten Terriers and change them into some other creatures.
Hi there thanks for watching. Being a groomer I have to accommodate everyone’s wishes and to be honest most people with wheatens don’t really want the standard clip. I have to clip their dog as per their requests and everyone has different likes and dislikes ❤️🐶❤️
Hydrogen peroxide! You don’t say dilute it, not only is it not needed, undiluted its cruel. ,
This is so wrong, it doesn't even look like a wheaten terrier :(
Más bonito era antes
No!!! This is a terrible groom!! She doesn’t look like a Wheaton! People look up soft coated Wheaton for yourself PLEASE!!!
Poor Soft, now without identity.
This is the worst grooming of a wheaten Ive seen. I groom my wheatens to actually look like a Wheaten. When this video is done the dog looks nothing like a wheaten should. No fall over the eyes no beard under the chin. Just awful
Thanks so much for watching and your comment. I groom a ton of wheatens I also own them and breed them. Yes you’re right it’s not a show clip but 90 percent of wheaten owners prefer this cut on their dog.
The show cut is rediculous and impractical for a PET.
HACK, HACK, HACK!!!😭
I'm sorry to leave a negative comment but this dog certainly looked better when it came in. Even with a pet trim I wouldn't dream of sending a dog out like this let alone posting it public on RUclips I'd be embarrassed. I know owners choose some stupid looks but a groomer should advise what would look best because your work is your advertisement to others when the owners are walking their dog.
Hi Sara, thanks so much for watching and we appreciate your comment. I groom hundreds of wheatens and I also breed them. Everyone that owns a wheaten chooses what hair cut they prefer for their dog. I always make suggestions but the way they get their own dog groomed is ultimately their choice not mine and I always do my best to make my clients happy.
That is so mean I think she did a great job
Your a nasty person to say such things about a very professional groomer! Shame on you!…🤨
Miserable comment. People who own these dogs want them to be comfortable. Wheaten's get very hot, are prone to hot spots and need lots of excercise. They are hard to keep clean and some people like checking their fur for ticks, prickers, etc. Don't insult someone and begin by saying you don't mean to. This groomer is terrific and showed us the most popular cut. There's no need for rude comments.
