[Music]
hello everyone this is ginger she's a
golden retriever and we're going to be
showing a full flip trim on her today
when doing the foot trim the first thing
you want to do is shave all this hair
out of the pad so we're using our Andes
Clippers with a number 10 blade
[Applause]
[Applause]
[Music]
and we're gonna scoop some of that hair
out between our pads too
[Applause]
[Music]
so you want it to look like that and
Ison cleaned out before you start your
actual trimming we're gonna take our
fine-tooth comb we're gonna brush
everything down we're gonna start from
the bottom of the foot and I prefer
curved scissors you can use straight
shears but I prefer the curved blunt tip
scissors and you can see that the curved
part is gonna follow the shape of the
foot so we're gonna get the bottom of
the foot till it kind of nice and neaten
round like that before we trim the top
so this is what you want it to look like
then you're gonna put the foot down
just kind of get a good look at it and
then we're going to move around to the
front of the foot and we're gonna fold
it forward like this and then we're
going to use our brush and our comb and
our fingers to get all of this hair out
between her toes as you can see I can
take my fingers and go through the toes
to make sure I get all those long hairs
up so that we can turn
and then again we're going to take our
curved scissors and we're going to
follow the shape of the foot you can go
up or down but you just want to make
sure that you're going this direction
and not this direction there you can see
you've trimmed a little off and giving
it some shape now we're just gonna
repeat that process till we get all
these little stray hair you want to go
across some kind of a sweeping motion
and then you can see when I want to get
that little piece there I turn my
scissors around cuz you only always want
to follow the curve of the foot there
you go you can see how it's really
starting to take on a nice shape now and
then usually when it's about at this
point there's really nicely then I'm
gonna take the foot again back this way
and I'm gonna pull this hair down here
so you can see there's still some little
extra Tufts now I'm just gonna make sure
we get all of that trend
[Music]
and you can just touch it up while the
foot is sitting down again moving my
scissors so it's always following the
curve of the foot this is pretty good
but just kind of getting those last
little extra stray hairs okay and then I
might tell her a little bit this way you
can see this hair back here we can trim
while they're standing so you see all
these little stray hairs here there you
go that's how you trim the foot and you
can see the difference it's in our
fluffy foot and our nice trim neat foot
and then we can move on to trimming what
we call the feather ease you can leave
them natural some people like them trim
some people like them natural but I
always do the foot first
and then move on to the feather ends so
again we're gonna get in front of her
we're gonna use our koma we're gonna
comb out all nice and neat and straight
down and you can see here I'm just gonna
trim off as little or as much as I like
[Music]
and you can keep combing and trimming
until it looks like you have a fairly
nice shape and then again you can put
the foot back down when it come and kind
of take a look at it and then let it go
back into what we call like the more
natural position and then we can touch
it up and again just depending on how
much you want to fine-tune it and do
some combing this or trimming and there
you have the another trim on the leg
so here we are trimming the back of the
foot and again we're gonna do the same
thing we're gonna shave all this
fluffiness out of the pads first
we're gonna scoop that out a little bit
in between their pads
[Music]
and this is sort of what you want it to
look like before you start trimming with
your scissors I'm using my Andes
Clippers with a ten blade so then the
next step is again to pick up the foot
and start from the bottom and comb this
all down because we're gonna trim it
around on the bottom first we're gonna
have our scissors following the curve of
the dog's foot you can see that's
already starting to give us a nice shape
are we gonna pick up the foot and bring
it forward and again take your fingers
and pull all that hair up between our
toes all those long Tufts that get stuck
you can take your comb comb all that up
we're gonna take our curved scissors
we're gonna follow the shape of the foot
and again you can go this direction or
you can go this direction whichever is
more comfortable for you you just don't
want to go to this direction because
that'll just make it look really choppy
it'll be harder so as you can see you've
got a good shape going here and then
while the foot is down you can just take
your scissors follow that to kind of
neat in that up a little more and then
I'm gonna pick up the foot and I'm gonna
take this hair and I'm gonna go down
this time just to get that little bit of
extra it might still be stuck between
our toes
and I'm constantly putting the foot back
down just to look at it and see what it
looks like when they're standing in
their natural position just to make sure
I'm getting all the hair and you can
just go back and forth and double-check
your work take my scissors and follow
the curve in front of the toes here get
that nice shape and then as far as the
what we call the back of the Hawks here
you can either leave it or you can trim
it whichever you prefer
if you'd like to trim it pick her foot
back up
I'm gonna take my curved scissors this
way now and I'm just gonna trim that all
up and then put her foot down see what
it looks like and touch it up so now I'm
gonna take Mike's scissors and just
follow I'm gonna fine a little bit more
there you can see a trim back foot
versus the fluffy not trimmed
