  1. What grooming products and care tools do you recommend for a Kerry Blue Terrier? I would like to groom my dog myself I will watch you and learn.

  2. How often are these poor creatures made to stand still for human's idea of beauty? Spending so much time on the dog from the eyes to the tail left no time to trim the face so that she can eat and drink freely! But, if she’s kept in a cage all the time that should not pose a problem…….

  3. got three Kerries, I groom them myself, cause a lot of groomers want to make them look like poodles, or they shave them down and give them "puppy Cuts", including messing up the falls… So out of pure necessarily , I have purchased the tools and been doing it myself.

  4. I'd like to see the eyelashes preserved. KBT have beautiful eyelashes. I also trim to allow the dog to see forward. We favor a brick face trim. Nice work.

  5. This would have been an amazing groom on a light colored table.  Her technique and precision are top notch and would have been emphasized by the contrast!  Great job to Becki Ensell!

  6. What sort of clippers do you use and how many blades would I need? I’m always tidying mine up with scissors but I recon I could do a decent job of cutting my Kerry myself following the vid

  7. I know this may be correct for what humans think this dog should look like but I just have to think the breed standard is wrong if the poor dog can't see directly in front of him. This shouldn't be a problem any breed should have. I can't imagine having hair in my face all day

  8. As not only a Certified Master Dog Groomer but an AKC- licensed 'all arounder' judge, I think this lady has done an excellent job grooming this very patient Kerry Blue Terrier. I cannot be sure, but it appears to me that the dog's coat is 'a little less than ideal', meaning that it is more difficult than usual to groom. Notwithstanding, she did an excellent job, and if she groomed this dog for a client, I am sure he/she was very happy with the result. I, too, concur with some other posts: It would be helpful for the beginners to learn more about which blade you are using, and what they particular blade number. Perhaps as you change blades, you could show the number of the blade on the screen for several seconds. I consider this one of the finer grooming videos out.

  9. Kerry Blue are certainly one of the best breeds in the terrier kingdom. I miss my beloved Ania my beautiful adorable Kerry Blue that I had for 13 years 🙁 I now have my 4.5-year-old Airedale Terrier which is lovely and really stubborn LOL xoxo

  10. I like the Kerry blue because they're smaller dogs and right between the look of a bouv and a giant schnauzer. Good size, good looking dog.
