Clipping should be done with care and use sturdy clippers of appropriate size and with additional guard on it that prevents cutting the nails beyond required length. Slow down, take your time, and do not hurry over the session.

Pamper your pet as much as possible. Keep small treats biscuits or crunches so that you could reward your dog for every time he remains patient and without fuss. Brushing the teeth is very important since these dogs are prone to teeth problems. Brushing of the coat must be slow and massaging to the dog so that he will enjoy every single stroke.

Other Tips: When you are approaching groomers, check out their references to make sure the groomer is professional and cares for the pet's well being. Decide beforehand what kind of cut or style do you want for your pet and describe it in detail to the groomer. Try to carry some photographs if available. 6. Expense: The price of grooming at home is minimal but professional groomers could be expensive to an extent.
