Denvers nails are hard to keep down. Tuckers i never have to cut but they are black so hard to cut even if needed.

I payed for Denver once and the groomer didnt treat her very well so never going back

Hi

Our Aussie, Matilda, just got her seasonal clipping, professionally done by my grandmother. I would post a pic, but she doesn't like the puparatzi

Both pups got a bath Saturday. I took them to a self pet wash that is thankfully very clean and i washed the tub down before using it as well.

Is there any special care I need to know for grooming smooth coated dogs? What brushes?

I usually use my hands or a zoom groom which is made of rubber. You also can use a Bristle brush, and I've used a shedding blade, but you have to be careful not to scratch the skin.

It all depends if your dog is shedding, and whether it has a double coat. My boxer sheds her under coat twice a year, but my Boston bulldogs don't generally.

I think it's a single coat, it's pretty thin. O do have a zoom groom so I'll try that

For those real thin coats I like just using my fingers. The bristle brush can follow up for a quick shine if you want.
