Wow he looks great.
I soo want to do a german clip on a Poodle, heck I want to try all the Poodle clips.

Bo looks amazing! Awesome job. ; )

I think German clips are my favorite. They look so pretty, but still natural. Where does he need to grow out his hair? The topknot?

He needs hair to grow on his topknot for sure, and his neck.. you can see the line where he was wearing his collar... no more collar wearing from now until Sept...lol (except for walks of course). He also needs more hair at the base of his tail so I can blend it into his back... and finally he needs more hair on his back legs.

To give you a better idea of what I mean here is a pic (this is my mentor btw, the one who helped me with Bo's haircut).

Very nice! I'm sure you'll do just fine in the contest.

WW! I could never begin to do that in a million years! What a great job! Gosh I wish I could have you do my two just for once. Then I would know for sure just how inadequate my work really is! LOL! I am not a real fan of shaved ears and I do miss seeing a nice pom on the end of the tail, but I can really appreciate the work that went into making Bo even more handsome than he already was!

I love it. I never new that was called a German Trim.

Before and After - WOW!!!

It's like working on a piece of marble, finding the masterpiece in there! I'd have never guessed ANYONE could get the dog in the Before shot to look like the After photo.

You are definitely ready for a competition, good luck!

Since he is a white one, and mine dogs are white, I HAVE to ask: what shampoo did you use? Any conditioner? Which one? Thanks!

Wow! I don't think I've ever seen a german clip before. Very dramatic. I like

Honestly I just use blue dawn liquid dish soap. Like 2 tablespoons mixed with a gallon of water. I follow with coathandler conditioner.
