 The best poodle grooming book to date October 11, 2000
24 out of 25 found this review helpful
I have yet to find a more comprehensive, practical book on poodle grooming. If this book is available at your library and you are considering buying a poodle, check it out! There's nothing better in print for unraveling the mystique of poodle grooming. Whether you wish to attempt grooming and clipping your own poodle or simply wish to become an educated consumer when taking your poodle to the professional groomer, you'll find enough detailed, easy-to-understand information in this book to do the job. Future editions could be improved by adding some color pictures and possibly a review of new grooming products, techniques and /or styles. Even so, when a book has been around this long and is still getting rave reviews, consider it a must-have for the poodle-owner's library.
Best poodle grooming reference on the market February 11, 2000

This book, along with the Oster poodle grooming video, were my lifelines when I first stumbled through grooming my black standard poodle almost 7 years ago. I have since bought other books on poodles, but the concise text, pictures and diagrams were extremely helpful in the beginning. I have opted for various pet trims instead of the traditional show trims as they are much easier to keep. I can now clip my poodle, trim, pluck hair, etc. better than some of the groomers I have taken him to. The initial equipment cost for anyone owning a standard poodle (clippers, table, scissors, etc.) is quite a chuck of money added already to the purchase price of the dog, but it is much more cost effective than spending $70-$100 for a good groomer every 6-8 weeks. I highly recommend this book and will buy the new edition when it comes out in November. I'll then pass this one on. My only recommendation, use some colour pictures next time too.

without a doubt a " must have "book for the serious poodle owner who also wants to clip and groom their poodle.great step by step instructions for all the show clips and directions for brushing and cleaning your poodle are included. this is not a book about "poodles" as much as how to groom and clip your poodle.this book is invaluable to me as a fancier with show dreams....
Just what I needed--lots of specific detail May 14, 1999

I have my first Poodle and am learning to groom. It's going fairly well, and this book tied a lot of loose ends together & answered questions. Pictures are good. Text gets to the point--very helpful.
An EXCELLENT "How To" Book! Very Informative and Detailed March 22, 1999

Wonderful and Fun book for the person who wants to clip their own poodle at home. I've been looking for many years for a book like this to come along! I loved the detailed pictures of the different poodle clips. Also, I learned many new aspects of grooming health that I did not know, previous to reading this book. Ms. Kalstone's book makes it easy for anybody's poodle to look like they came out of a professional grooming salon.
