How to Groom a Golden Retriever at Home with Ease

How to Groom a Golden Retriever

I absolutely love the appearance and nature of Golden Retrievers. I don’t know how many times my husband and I have spotted a Golden and turned to each other with “Let’s get one”. But right now, I’m not sure that our yard would be suitable. However, if we were ever so lucky to own one in the future, then we would definitely need to keep on top of her grooming in order to maintain that striking coat. You no doubt feel the same way, if you are the proud owner of a Golden Retriever.

Clippers for Poodles

Standard Poodles have an average lifespan of 12 to 15 years. Have you ever thought about how many clips your Poodle might require throughout his or her life?
