This week’s Groomer’s Choice comes from Tabi, who picked the Yorkshire Terrier!💙🩷

Yorkies may be small, but their grooming needs are anything but. With a fine, hair-like coat similar to human hair, they require consistent maintenance to prevent tangles and matting and to keep their coat looking its best.

Tabi’s Grooming Tips:

Brush several times per week (daily for longer coats) to prevent tangles
Keep a consistent grooming schedule every 4–6 weeks
Regular face trims to keep hair out of the eyes
Maintain hygiene trims and keep the sanitary area clean
Stay on top of nail trims and ear cleaning

With routine care, Yorkies can be kept in a variety of styles while staying comfortable and mat-free!💙🩷

This week we’re highlighting the Airedale Terrier🩷💙🐾

Known as the “King of Terriers,” the Airedale Terrier is the largest of the terrier breeds. They are intelligent, confident, and versatile dogs that were originally bred for hunting and working. Airedales are energetic and loyal, making them great companions for active households.

Grooming Tips:
Airedales have a dense, wiry coat that requires regular maintenance to keep its texture and prevent matting.

Brush several times per week to remove debris and prevent tangles
Routine grooming every 4–6 weeks to maintain coat shape
Hand stripping is recommended to maintain proper coat texture, though clipping is a common alternative
Keep the beard clean and dry to prevent odor and buildup
Stay consistent with nail trims and ear cleaning

Proper grooming helps maintain the Airedale’s signature look while keeping their coat and skin healthy!!🐶💙🩷
