The All Breed Dog Grooming Guide - outstanding! August 15, 2006 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book was purchased for a grooming class I took. It provided a wealth of information and will be a great information tool in the future. Great content!
Groomers beware December 12, 2005 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is an ok book for new people, but it has several safty issues, and doesn't have the show cuts for many dogs, poodles. It also has the wrong cuts from some of the dogs. There are better books out there.

this book has every breed that you'd ever come across at work. BUT... We don't like the short grooming discriptions and especially the pictures/illustrations. Don't get me wrong, Lynn Miller is a great artist. Our fellow employees have agreed that we'd much rather see a photogragh or better yet, a before and after photo of some more difficult breeds.
Bordering on useless January 13, 2004 21 out of 21 found this review helpful
This book is supposedly a reference for professional dog groomers. As one, I find it disappointing. The illustration quality is variable, and on one particular clip (the miniature schnauzer, I believe) there is a serious error in the clipping guidelines. Not enough angles of the dog pictures are shown for you to be able to discern the clipping pattern. Also, most dog groomers use modified forms of the show cuts on their customers' dogs. This book fails to describe or even mention these alternative clipping styles, which I think are not only invaluable to dog groomers but to laypersons as well who choose to groom at home.
Thorough, well written book September 20, 2003 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
I loved the details on the drawings! Giving the type of blades to use for clipping dogs was fantastic. This is a great resource to have for any groomer. When you buy, make sure to order the comb binding - that way, the book stays open for easy reference!
