Coat types, brushes, blade numbers, the bath, high-velocity drying, dematting, breed trims, nails and stress signals: in most manuals it's a wall of text. Here every topic fits on one page, with the drawing and what you need to remember. 75 illustrated pages.

These are real pages from the book. The table of contents is the full one: 8 parts and 70 topics.
You've read the order of a full groom three times. You close your notes...
...and you can't remember if the mats come out before or after the bath. It was all just lines of text.
Here the full groom is a drawn sequence of 8 steps, one after another: from the consultation with the owner to the final check, with the mats out before the bath.
And on the pages next to it, every technique has its own: the bath, high-velocity drying, the brush-out, clipping and the nails.
First you understand why it's done that way. Then the order sticks on its own.
The groomer and the coat, tools and equipment, bath and brush-out, clipping and scissoring, breed trims, nails and ears, handling and safety, and practice: 75 pages, all illustrated
Picture this:
Instead of rereading half a page about clipper blades without being able to see what each number leaves...
...you open the page and find every blade number next to the length it leaves on the coat, from the shortest to the longest, in inches, in one drawing.
And the bath, the humane shave-down, the Poodle lamb clip, the quick inside the nail and the stress ladder turn into drawings and tables you can read at a glance.
You stop repeating and start understanding.
That's exactly what Dog Grooming Made Visual does. It's not “just another manual.” It's 8 parts and 75 illustrated pages, one topic per page, ending with 40 practice questions with the answers explained and the whole book on one review page. Because what you see in order is what you remember.
Because what your brain sees organized, it remembers.
What a groomer does, the profession in the US, dog anatomy for groomers, coat types, double coats, the pre-groom check, and matting and pelting.
Pick the right tool for every coat: brushes and rakes, combs and the comb test, shears, clippers, what each blade number leaves in inches, snap-on combs, the table and the loop, and dryers.
The order of a full groom, bathing step by step, shampoos and conditioners, drying, line brushing, dematting and the humane shave-down, and deshedding.
Clipping technique, scissoring basics, feet and pads, the face and eye area, the sanitary trim, and hand-stripping, rolling and carding.
Do the trims your clients ask for: 11 breed trims step by step, including Poodle, Shih Tzu, Yorkie, Schnauzer, Bichon, Cocker, Westie, doodles, Golden Retriever and Husky.
Nails and the quick, dark nails and grinding, ears, eyes and tear stains, tooth brushing, and what groomers do not treat.
Stress signals, low-stress handling, safe restraint, bite safety, heat and dryer safety, seniors and puppies, accidents, salon hygiene and client records.
40 original practice questions with the answers explained, and the whole book on one review page.
At the end of the book: 40 practice questions with the answers explained and the whole book on one review page.
How to keep your shears, blades and clippers working: cleaning, disinfecting and oiling, when to send them for sharpening, shear tension, storage and a troubleshooting guide for clippers that pull, chatter or run hot.
A picture guide to what you may find during a groom (redness, hot spots, lumps, hair loss, fleas, ticks, ear and eye problems) and how to tell the owner and refer to the vet. Groomers notice and refer; they do not diagnose or treat.

For people learning to groom at a school, in a course or alongside a groomer, for bathers and salon assistants who want to start using the clippers, and for new groomers who want a visual review.

The breed trims include the dogs you see most in US salons: doodles, Shih Tzu, Poodle, Schnauzer and Yorkie. Check the table of contents above to see every topic.
On standard professional grooming practice in the US: the clipper blade length charts published by blade makers, AKC breed standards for the breed trims, AKC show clip rules for Poodles, and guidance on canine body language and low-stress handling. Measurements are in inches and temperatures in °F.
