Grooming Equipment Recommendations
Grooming equipment can be scary as there is a lot out there. We provide grooming equipment recommendations and the information on where to purchase them. I assist with the details of where to buy the equipment. If required, we chat on the phone or email about the options that would best suit you and your schnauzer/s. I ensure you don't waste money on the wrong equipment and rather purchase the correct grooming equipment the FIRST time.
Understanding the Blades
This video demonstrates the difference between using the size 10 blade and size 7FC blade when clippering a miniature schnauzer’s hair. It also demonstrates the difference cutting with and against the miniature schnauzers hair growth.
A Winter/Hygiene Cut
This video demonstrates how to give your miniature schnauzer a winter/hygiene cut for when you prefer to keep your miniature schnauzers hair long, but still want them comfortable and hygienic. We show you how to neaten/trim the face, rear, under the arms and paws so the schnauzer still has long hair but is comfortable and hygienic. Perfect for puppies, winter or schnauzerholics in cold climates.
Handling a Difficult Schnauzer
This video explains what to do when you have a difficult or nervous miniature schnauzer who is scared of being groomed, and will not stand still and allow you to groom them. This often happens when you have to undo trauma and bad memories from mobile groomers and grooming parlours.
Good and Bad Grooming Examples
This video demonstrates some good and bad grooming examples. The bad grooming examples are typical of grooming parlous and mobile groomers who do not know how to groom a miniature schnauzer correctly, and do not follow the grooming charts.
Show Grooming and Other Grooming Styles
This video explains the difference between miniature schnauzer show dog grooming versus pet grooming. We also show you some examples of different miniature schnauzer grooming styles typically done in Asia.

Do you need to purchase grooming equipment before you do the course?
It is better not to buy grooming equipment before you do the course! As part of the ONLINE course there is a Grooming Equipment (Unit 5) video and a Grooming Equipment Guide to download. Deborah also assists you with advice and recommendations for purchasing your grooming equipment.

Home grooming is the best thing you can do for your miniature schnauzer's!
When you home groom your miniature schnauzers, they will look fabulous with a proper schnauzer cut and you can groom when and where it suits you.
You will have more special one on one bonding time with them, and keep them safe from potential harm at mobile groomers and parlours. There are so many grooming parlour and mobile groomer horror stories. Miniature schnauzers are very sensitive dogs, so protect them!
You will save money by home grooming your miniature schnauzers! If you take 2 miniature schnauzers to a grooming parlour every 5 weeks, and spend on average R250 or $40 per schnauzer, this works out to R5000 or $800 per year just on grooming parlour visits! R20 000 or $3200 over 4 years!
Most importantly, you will be proud that you are a schnauzer mommy or daddy who grooms their own miniature schnauzer/s!

What do other schnauzerholics say about the ONLINE course ?
- Oh wow Deborah! What an amazing course. The detailed videos and step by step “how to” is exactly what I was lacking to add to my confidence to groom my own schnaubabies. It is presented with so much love and care. I love this and especially that I can watch it over and over again while grooming. This is truly rewarding and I wish I have done it much earlier and definitely recommend it to every schnauzer mommy and daddy! Thank you so much for making the grooming experience so special and making me realise that this is the best thing I could have done for Kallie and Kabous. Forever grateful, Leonie Coetzee
- Deborah, you simply the best - just love being able to groom them now after taking your course - now more shaking when the grooming vehicle arrives - lots of hugs and smoothie kisses in between and best off all we saving a lot of money every month - so win win! Sonja Arnold
- Fantastic,concise and detailed course. So much information given and extras thrown in. A lot of care and effort has gone into the making of all the videos and I just love the easy manner in which everything is explained and done. Thanks so much for giving me the confidence to finally start grooming my babies. Each video has been painstakingly done - I can only imagine the work and time it took you to achieve all that and with such well behaved fur babies. I can highly recommend this course to any schnauparents who are debating doing the course as everything you need to know has been covered. You are a star Deborah! Olga Cardoso
- This has to be the best online course I have enrolled in and such value for money. The attention to detail and the relaxed, happy manner in which is has been presented make it entertaining as well as informative! The grooming charts and the practical explanation thereof have added to my confidence to groom my dogs! Thank you so much! Ros Barnard
- I love this course. I have learned so much. Thank you for this great initiative. I can't wait to start grooming my two girls. Izelle Stonlake
- Thanks Deborah, you made understanding miniature schnauzer grooming so easy. My princess is so chilled with her schmommy grooming her now. I loved being able to watch the videos over and over to check what I was doing! Lynne Eekhof
- Thank you for this enlightening course. I thought that home grooming my own schnauzers would be difficult, complicated and that I may not groom correctly. But in the videos, you show us step by step how to, this is actually an easy, and rewarding thing to do with my Schnauzers. I'm especially grateful for sharing what equipment to buy, so that we can make the correct purchasing decisions the first time. I highly recommend this Deborah's online course as an all round and easy to understand and apply grooming course. Claire Murfin
- Thank you Deborah for the comprehensive information and tutorials provided. When your grooming course was postponed due to lock down, I tried to learn from Youtube videos posted by groomers, but each have their own ideas, and some even cut the Schnauzer beard (the horror!). Your course is well structured and the videos are extremely helpful. To be recommended! Sarie Homan
