I’m also extremely OCD, and know no one will pay as much notice to detail to as I will. I joined several online poodle groups, watched a ton on YouTube videos and had more than a few people recommend this book, referring to it as the “Bible” of poodle grooming. I thought it was a small price to pay for a wealth of knowledge that covers just about everything one could want to know about poodle grooming. It is very detailed, as it does cover grooming both for the show ring and for the pet poodle. It has a combination of both pictures and illustrations/ diagrams (all black and white) and discusses all the equipment in depth. I highly recommend this book and refer to it often when grooming and have it all marked up and tagged just like a text book. This is a book you will buy and keep forever. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Well written, informative, helpful *by D***6 on Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2012* Growing up we owned shorthaired mutts that required minimal upkeep. They walked around the yard like they were lost and slept on the back porch the rest of the time. We probably washed them twice a year. We could go on vacation for a few weeks and they would be fine as long as they had food and water. My dad didn't allow dogs in the house and didn't like spending money on them, so owning a dog like a poodle was simply out of the question.Years later I decided I wanted to get a smart house dog. So I did some research and decided on a poodle mainly because of its intelligence and non-shedding ability. I made the right choice - but of course - didn't know anything about grooming- something all poodle owners should have knowledge of even if they don't do the grooming themselves because a poodle is a totally different breed of dog.My poodle's not a show dog nor could he ever be one, but I don't want him for that anyway. I don't have any interest in some things in this book such as the special cuts section. However, I still found this grooming book to be very informative and helpful. It's an easy read and very detailed in every aspect of grooming. The pictures are black & white but that doesn't matter much because the book is intended to educate - not entertain.The book starts by giving a brief background on poodle origin and then goes into the different kinds of cuts and their origins. It then teaches three primary skills: the methods of grooming and the selection and use of the proper tools for grooming. There are plenty of pictures to help you along the way.Another thing the book teaches is that properly grooming a poodle is not just washing and cutting hair. I noticed once that my dog was scooting around on his butt a lot as though it itched. I took a look and noticed that one side of his anus looked a little swollen. I then remembered reading in this book about how the anal glands occasionally need to be squeezed or they can become infected. So I followed the procedure for this in the book and it worked. It probably would have cost me three or four times the price of this book to have a vet do it.I bought an electric clipper and some other grooming tools the book recommends and groomed my dog a few times, but to be honest I don't care much for grooming. I now take him to be groomed about once a month for around $50. Sometimes I have to take him back to the groomer because he or she doesn't do things properly or skips doing things - like pulling the hair out of the ears, which if not done can lead to infection in poodles. I bet you can guess how I know about these things. Don't hesitate buying this book since there is a wealth of information in it that is critical not only to grooming but also to the basic health of your poodle. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Your dogs possibility !!!!!!
