Almost as good as a class, 2008-06-01
I have owned poodles all my life, but never dared to clip one. I now have two standards and decided it was time. With this book (and a prayer) I have clipped my first standard poodle and she looks terrific! I followed the directions for the specified clip (Miami) and all went very well. It may not be a perfect job, but she looks darned good. I'll do her brother tomorrow!

A brilliant book on all you need to know clipping, grooming etc of your poodle. I have saved heaps of money by doing the clipping etc myself. The best book out.

Best reference book for grooming a poodle, 2008-04-07
I needed a book as I am new to grooming a poodle for show. This book has been great when I need advice from bathing to brushing to products to scissoring and clipping. A must have book for those that want to groom their own poodle. I highly recommend this book.
