you're all clean now very dean today I'm gonna be showing you how I blow dry a poodle this is the toy poodle now she got a bath already and she's been towel dry and she's ready to be dry so I'm gonna use my high-velocity dryer it's a variable speed I'm gonna put it on the low I'm to dry her and I'll show you how I get around it a puppy take about only 10-15 minutes 20 minutes topspin on how fast your ears dry so I will show you how I do that piece of my dryer I take the nozzle off I don't use any special dryer because it's too too strong especially on these little dogs I like to make it as much comfortable for them as possible and not so scary but this dog has been groomed every three to four weeks all her life and since she's used to the drying so I'm just gonna turn it on low and I will start hi sweetie how did you start at the back or the side I do the body first I go down the legs and then the head and the ears are last so let's get started okay what I want to say is I have an alone speed and I'm putting the flat end of the dryer actually right against her skin I'm actually touching the skin going back and forth and with the air coming out it actually kind of lifts it up a bit from the skin so you're going know as close as you can because you want to straighten out the hair since it's curly hair and that's the the purpose of blow-drying a poodle poodle is to straighten their hair so I sometimes you know use these quick movements or you can go very slow and just do one area at a time and you know sometimes going slower ends up being faster because sometimes I kind of go you know all over and then come back to it but if you do one spot at a time it'll it'll still be the same you know it'll look the same at the end it's just how you want to do it so there's no you know no wrong way no right way it's the same same way but you can do it either way you can go slow start in one area or you can kind of go over the dog ones you know if you see an area really drying out you want to get to it because if it dries out it won't really straighten out and so I'm going to show you how I do that now when you're drawing you want to make sure it's dried I'm thoroughly right to the skin sometimes it looks dry but it's not really and you want to make sure the hair is all straightened out like you know you see this part here you know looks dry but it's not it's pretty kinky so you could dry until it gets really really straight and once I'm finished the whole dog I go over them again and they look really nice and dry and plush and then you comb them and brush them [Applause] there I did most of her body I just got to do up the neck here in the head and ears now some little dogs don't you don't like the velocity on your head so you can use a stand dryer or a hands-free dryer that way you know it's a little bit quieter and you can brush at the same time so I'm just gonna do a head on really low and she's used to it so she's not a problem I will show you come here I'm just holding here by the nose here my thumb on top my other fingers underneath a fight he does have a little girls in the middle of our head so I have to that's why she turn it now a little bit lower okay so she's gonna lay down her head most dogs do they want to lay down [Applause] [Applause] a little bit nodded [Applause] [Applause] okay so she's pretty much dry all over and I like to go over just one more time I see a few areas here now some hair will look curly because it's tight or it's it's matted or it's just you know hasn't been brushed in a while but majority of it will look fluffy so I'm just gonna go over her one more time quickly to make sure I didn't miss any areas rady there we go alrighty so that's how she's pretty dry so my next steps would be to brush her out she's got some matting in her ears that's why they don't look so so good I have to brush them and call numb and she'll look all fluffy so hope that helped if you got any questions just ask down below in the comment section and I'll be happy to answer and make sure you subscribe if you haven't already for more grooming videos so thank you very much for watching
