Good, but could be better,

This review is from: All-Breed Dog Grooming (Spiral-bound)
If you are looking for a step-by-step grooming procedure on different breeds of dogs, then this is a great book for you. The diagrams are helpful, and the directions are easy to follow. The problem I found with the book, is that it did not provide enough information about the clips. Personally, I want to know the reasons behind the different clipping styles, before I use them.

OK, not for the professionals, but I have been grooming in a salon for 3 months and this book is a great help. Step by step without being over-explanatory. The section on poodles is extensive giving many different types of cuts. The pictures give a nice idea of what the standard cuts should look like for the various breeds.
It was good for me!

This is a very instructional book with step by step instructions how to groom the various breeds. AS well as diagrams showing the direction of grooming for special grooming needs. I am taking a grooming class and this is the book they recommend. Very happy with the book and Amazons prompt response getting it to me.
