For Visa I bathe her in Nature's Specialties Lavenderm shampoo, and I use Nature's Specialties Plum Silky on her head and face. Then I blowdry her. Then I clip the ends off of her nails, trim her pads and feet, and take the tips off of her hocks and pasterns and brush them outwards. Thgen she's all done.

If she's shedding, I will do all of that as well as brush her with a slicker brush and poodle comb, take a matbreaker though her (it removes the undercoat) and card her with a #40 clipper blade. I never brush her unless she's sheding as she doesn't need it.
