I have been clipping my own standard poodles for over 10 years now with just a basic knowledge. This book is fantastic for anybody who wishes to learn about grooming/clipping their own dogs and would be the ultimate reference for those who are professional groomers. The book is written in a basic, easy to understand way with many diagrams and pictures, which makes it so easy to understand. I have only used a couple of the methods and my dogs are looking so much better already. My amateur clipping and grooming has already started to take on a professional look. I am very pleased with the results so far.
Very full and easy to understand, the author covers everything in good detail and step by step instructions. Unfortunately all the products mentioned are USA sourced ans some additional descriptions would be useful in sourcing local equivalents.
