Excellent educational video, Suzanne! It's so helpful for pet parents to see exactly how to approach training at home. Bridget is such a pretty girl. Love her coloring. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much! I just adopted a 10yo male Shih Tzu and he is a grumpy old man. I'm giving him time to adjust but definitely will use your techniques to help make grooming easier. He bites when you get too close to his face--probably because his old teeth are tender. Hopefully I can build some trust and avoid his sore spots.

She’s so pretty! It takes daily training from the time get your puppy. I got my 10 month old puppy at 6 weeks and watching KZfaq and Suzanne has made my puppy love grooming! I learned to do it myself and have saved a ton on money. Lol Miss your livestreams Suzanne. Hope you are doing well. Denise

Amazing, informative video Suzanne! Videos like this would make fantastic Intermission Videos!

This is SO INCREDIBLY helpful! We adopted our first Shih-Tzu puppy and have been trying to get him used to basic daily grooming hygiene. I can’t wait to start these tips with him. I would love for his first groom to be positive 💕💕

Your training videos are my favorite. Thank you for sharing this little lady. ❤️

Hi Suzanne, , been missing your lives. Just had my shop broken into and robbed/ransacked. They took 2 of my groomers harnesses and that broke my heart. Will be ordering more soon. At 63 years old it almost makes me want to give up. But NOT GONNA DO IT LOL thanks for all you do for us groomers. Hope all is well with you and Fam.

Well said & well done !!!!

I love watching your fear free techniques. I have used so many of them with my dogs and it has helped 100% in getting certain tasks done. This video will be helpful to many people struggling to brush their dogs face. Thanks Suzanne!

Your video was extremely helpful. My Shih Tzu puppy, Stella is 4 months old and it has been very difficult to clean her face. The head holding technique with treats worked. I also feel much more confident working with her. She has not been professionally groomed yet. I wish that we had groomers like you in Monroe, Louisiana. I am a fan for life. Thank you .

Thanks for such a great video. We have been trying to learn about grooming our 2 ShiChi sisters for 9 months. Your C hold info is great. Same with the holding upper eyes back. I recently learned about practicing to make ponytails, too. We've been trying several desensitization techniques, but yours hit home the most. We became aware of the Matt's about at 8 months of age when their hair changed quite a bit. I didn't quite get the name of the type of comb or brush you have. I havent seen that comb offered where I've been trying to purchase items for the girls. Thanks again for showing HOW to do this. 🥰🤩😍

that fur baby is beautiful love her color ....

Totally agree! Pet owners should know what a dog need before they decided to get one. I was a groomer assistant and I remember when I went through this bad situation. It was awful, so stressful. Thanks for sharing this 👍

Very sweet

What is the type of comb is that because I can’t find it anywhere

thank you for the info and doing this video! Where can I get one of those brushes for my shih tzu face grooming? also is it possible to use a cream rinse to soften the crusties and keep it tangle free?

Our rescue shih tzu has very thin hair so it is much easier to maintain and keep tangle-free. Her eyes on the other hand have been pretty problematic in her old age. She loves to rub her face around after eating and that irritates her eyes and causes lots of buildup. Have you found that it is better to keep a shih tzu face shaved if there are eye issues?

Hi this is Lisa Hatfield I love your videos this video I just watched is with trimmers can you help me train my shih tzu to cut her face with scissors. She is terrified of the scissors but I can trim and cut her face with clippers I would like to use scissors some times thank you again and you are wonder and the asian fusion cut is my favorite and I am little by little able to create that style your help will be very appreciated thank you again

My pup got tuckered out running around my neighbor's yard with her brother. Easier to brush when they're sleeping! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hello, you are amazing. What was the rubber comb, for face, Diane Comb? Where to buy? What shampoo and conditioner for a Lhasa Apso? Brushing spray? My girl is growing all hair out. Not show dog length. But natural with a bit of a trim. I bathe her once a week. But I need more guidance. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Where can I get the comb?
