Grooming book Dog Grooming Simplified

Jodi Murphy has written a Grooming Book that is groundbreaking! There’s no better way to understand proper pattern placement than by using real photos of real dogs! Not only does Jodi use real photos, but the dogs on display are some of the top winning show dogs in the US, including “Sky”, the Wire Fox Terrier, winner of Best In Show at the 2014 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show!

With over 190 breeds recognized by the American Kennel Club, along with individual breed-specific care instructions, it can get very overwhelming for new groomers to remember the information. “Dog Grooming Simplified” is the solution for learning about pattern lines, simplifying the learning process. Whether the patterns are set tight or left more natural…..the patterns are set the same way. Once a groomer understands basic patterns, he or she will be able to trim any breed with ease.

With proper cartridge placement and the techniques described in this text, the groomer will be able to present a balanced, well-blended trim to the pet owner. The content described is based on Jodi’s opinion, interpretation of the breed standard and the techniques she has acquired and developed over the years.

With over 400 true-to-life color photographs taken by one of the top dog show photographers in the country, this first of its kind grooming book is sure to be one of the most sought after reference guides on the market.

Jodi has created a unique color overlay for each breed with a color chart showing the recommended blade lengths, clip-on comb lengths and techniques for each breed.
