Make sure you combine different techniques depending on the areas that need attention. After you complete the grooming, the final step involves a written assignment.

Because the products, tools, and techniques change for each section of the body, it\u2019s important that you ensure each step is complete before continuing.<\/p>\n<p>This unit requires your dog to have its basic grooming done already. This includes the bath, the sanitary cut, and trimming the nails. When you\u2019re grooming to standards, you complete the basic groom as \u201cprep\u201d and then apply breed standard techniques. After this is done, go ahead and film the \u201cbefore\u201d video of the dog.<\/p>\n<p>Record your tool choices, techniques, and the overall look you tried to achieve onto an assignment template for each body part! This will likely be the first time you attempt a breed standard groom, so there will be plenty of room for improvement. When you are finished, try to identify these opportunities for next time.<\/p>\n<p>To wrap up the unit, film your dog\u2019s \u201cafter\u201d video.
