Enroll your model dog in a training course:

  • Dog (cat) grooming course 200 RUR.
  • when handling 3 or more dogs at the same time 150 rub. dog.

During grooming courses we study all types of coats and work with different breeds of dogs.


The dogs are bathed with shampoo and conditioner and dried. After this, a model haircut is performed. We carry out a hygiene complex, which includes: treatment of the inner surface of the ear, treatment of the groin area, trimming of nails.

Breeds such as schnauzers, fox terriers, and Scotch terriers require trimming, which we successfully perform.

Spitz, Pekingese, Chao Chao require combing.

As a rule, cats are cut with a clipper. What remains is a voluminous head, toes on paws and the tip of a tail, like a lion’s.

Other options are possible depending on your wishes.

The Pomeranian Spitz is one of the breeds of dogs whose haircut is a necessary item of care. Their coat structure is thick, soft and long. Therefore, without regular grooming, she will lose her presentable appearance and gloss.

Features of grooming

Up to 3 months inclusive, the coat of Spitz puppies is not completely formed. Until this age, dogs are only taught to handle hands by gently combing their fur, cleaning their ears and trimming their nails. At the age of 3.5 months, the first molt occurs. From this moment, it is already possible to give a rounded “cat” shape to the hair on the paws and trim the hairs on the ears.

At 11 - 12 months, the dog's body and coat are finally formed. During the same period of time there is a second moult, after which you can do any model haircuts.

Pomeranians have very sensitive skin. Therefore, you should not shave your dog's head - this can cause baldness.

The structure of the coat

Up to 3 months, the puppy’s body is covered with thin hairs that resemble fluff. A dog’s full-fledged, “adult” coat begins to form at 3.5 months and finally changes by the age of one year. The Spitz coat consists of 2 parts:

1. Guard hair – hard and straight hair. It stands perpendicular to the dog's body.

2. Undercoat - soft, long spiral hairs. Makes up the bulk of wool.

The Pomeranian's thickest hair is located on the collar, tail and hind legs.

Grooming Basics

To keep a Spitz's coat looking neat, it needs to be combed and trimmed regularly . Dogs of this breed especially need grooming during the molting period. The fact is that due to the spiral-shaped structure of the coat, fallen hairs remain on the dog’s body and, if they are not combed out, they form lumps that are difficult to comb out.

Combing

Regardless of whether the dog is a show-class representative or not, it needs to be brushed at least 2-3 times a week. To do this, it is not at all necessary to visit a groomer. This can also be done at home. It is enough to purchase a minimum set of tools:

  1. Massage comb. Even a regular human comb with long teeth (about 3 cm) will do. Combing with a massage brush helps to detangle the fur before using a slicker. It is also convenient to use while drying wool with a hairdryer.
  2. Puffer. For Spitz dogs, slicker brushes of medium size, moderate hardness, and long teeth without plastic roundings at the tips are suitable. She needs to carefully comb the fur from roots to ends, dividing it into partings. The slicker is indispensable during the molting period.
  3. Comb . Lifts hairs, creating additional volume and cleans out remaining hairs. The comb is also actively used by the groomer during haircutting.

How to care between haircuts:

Combing

Spitz dogs do not need daily brushing, as otherwise they may lose most of their undercoat. You can brush your dog about 1-2 times a week.

The algorithm for this procedure is as follows:

  1. First, a grooming spray is applied to the fur. As a replacement, you can use Gliss Kur express conditioner. This is necessary to relieve static tension.
  2. The dog is combed with a massager with sparse teeth against the growth of the hair. If the comb goes well, then there are no tangles.
  3. Then you need to go through the wool with a slicker. The fur coat is combed in all directions to collect fluff.
  4. After this, the remaining fluff is collected with a comb in the direction of growth. They also pull out strands, unravel tangles and add volume.

How to cut your hair correctly?

Grooming a Pomeranian can significantly save the owner's time and make the dog's life easier. A groomed pet gets dirty less on the street, and therefore does not need to be washed and combed often. It is important to accustom your dog to grooming from puppyhood. If she does not learn to stand calmly during hygiene procedures, there is a high probability of cutting the dog unevenly or accidentally injuring her with sharp scissors.

You can trim your Pomeranian Spitz both in a grooming salon and at home (if you have such skills). Before grooming, your pet must be washed and combed. The most common are the following 4 types of haircuts.

Exhibition (classic)

A classic haircut is a kind of “cleaning of feathers” before an exhibition. The animal must be cut so that it is not noticeable, but at the same time all the advantages are emphasized, and all the shortcomings are hidden. The tips of the ears are given a rounded shape using thinning scissors. Excess hairs are also removed from the ear canal. The paws are given a rounded “cat” shape. Excess hairs are trimmed along the contour of the fingers and between them.

The collar and tail are made more magnificent and spherical with the help of thinning. Lastly, the groomer carefully trims the area under the tail.

To the "bear cub" (Boo)

Recently, the “teddy bear” or “Boo” haircut has become increasingly popular.

Boo is a dwarf Spitz whose cute photos conquered Facebook in 2009, and then the entire Internet. He was loved by the public due to his resemblance to a plush toy.

The distinctive features of the “Boo” haircut are as follows:

  1. Round head - ears should be level with the back of the neck.
  2. Short hair on the body - it should be the same length.
  3. Short hair on the paws - giving them a rounded shape.

As a result of the haircut, the dog looks like a funny teddy bear. Despite its touching appearance and practicality, a dog with such a haircut will not be able to take part in competitions. In addition, the hair will grow back for a very long time after it.

Modern

This haircut differs from the show classic because it has a more careful silhouette. As a result, the dog looks very round and cute, but at the same time does not lose its breed appearance. If the haircut was performed by an experienced groomer, the structure of the coat will not deteriorate and the hairs will grow back quite quickly.

The so-called “lion” haircut. Using a clipper, the hair on the front paws, hind paws, back and belly is cut. The groomer leaves long hair in the collar area and on the muzzle, as well as a tassel at the tip of the tail. The remaining wool is given additional volume using thinning scissors.

This haircut can ruin your dog's coat and lead to baldness!

Types of haircuts

The long fur of these amazing Spitz pets allows you to choose a hairstyle for them to suit every taste and color.

Home haircut

A simple and quick option: a certain layer of hair is removed from the pet - no more than 3-5 cm of guard hair and undercoat. A short haircut makes it easier to care for your dog - washing, combing.

Homemade Spitz haircut:

Hygienic haircut

This option is necessary to make life easier for the pet and the owners. The fur that interferes with the life of the Spitz and makes it difficult to move is removed.

Another advantage of the hygiene procedure: in the grooming salon, in addition to haircuts, it also includes other useful activities - cleaning the ears, washing the eyes, trimming the claws.

Examples of hygienic haircuts:

Boo Bear

The “bear” option is one of the most popular and interesting Spitz haircuts. Her popularity on social networks brought her fame. The dog, cut like a bear cub, looks like a miniature plush animal. The fur on the paws and body is evenly shortened.

The dog's round head with protruding ears is indicated. The “bearish” appearance is complemented by a miniature nose and black button eyes.

Breeders do not recommend cutting dwarf Spitz dogs like the popular character Boo - too much hair is removed. Such a loss can negatively affect the condition of the animal, which has fragile health.

Bear haircut:

Lion haircut

An interesting, but rather ambiguous option. On the back, abdomen, and tummy, the hair is cut so short that sometimes it is not restored in the future. Often it is completely shaved: this is a popular haircut for white Spitz.

On the top, back of the head, and chest, the fur is left untouched so that it resembles a lion's mane. Leave a “tassel” at the tip of the tail; with certain haircut options, there will be a layer of fur on the paws.

Choosing a Groomer

Not only the quality of the haircut, but also the pet’s well-being after the procedure depends on the professionalism of the groomer. A master of his craft, he knows how to connect with animals and understands cosmetics and care products. He is also always ready to give advice on choosing good food and vitamin complexes to keep your pet's coat healthy and shiny. The following 5 parameters will help you distinguish a professional from an amateur.

  1. Reviews. Be sure to read customer reviews of the grooming salon before bringing your dog there. The best solution would be to find other Pomeranian owners on the forums and ask who they prefer to groom their pet.
  2. Knowledge of the breed and its characteristics. A good groomer knows how to cut dogs of a wide variety of breeds, but most specialists have a rather narrow specialization, aimed at the bulk of clients. For example, for grooming Yorkshire terriers. Ask the master if he has experience working with a Pomeranian Spitz - a professional will not take on a dog whose breed characteristics are unfamiliar to him.
  3. Tools . A good groomer's workplace always looks neat, and his tools are high-quality and durable . Even if the master works at home or at a veterinary clinic, his equipment must be in good working order and kept clean. Rusty scissors or a wobbly cutting table are a good reason to find another specialist.
  4. Contact with animals. For most dogs, getting a haircut is very stressful, especially if the procedure is unusual and the salon is unfamiliar. Whether your pet will feel comfortable in his hands or not depends on how well the groomer knows how to connect with animals. Do not leave your dog alone during the procedure immediately. Attend the process of introducing a specialist to your pet - everything will become clear to you right away. Rough handling of the animal - grabbing the scruff or paws is unacceptable! If you witness such behavior from staff, immediately remove the animal from the salon and notify the management of the establishment.
  5. Professional growth. A professional groomer must have diplomas and certificates confirming his attendance at courses and master classes. If the chosen groomer is constantly improving his skills and testing new products in his field, you have made a good choice.

How to choose a groomer

Finding a good groomer is similar to finding a good hairdresser. Unprofessional mistakes will take a very long time to correct.

  • Has a diploma of completion of courses. It is highly desirable to have various certificates confirming the continuous improvement of skills.
  • The groomer must know the characteristics of the breed. If the master does not cut the Spitz, you should not give him the dog. Especially if she is going to perform at an exhibition.
  • It is imperative to have high-quality tools that are kept clean. The work area is also clean and tidy.
  • If you decide to cut your Pomeranian short (boo or lion), a professional groomer is obliged to inform you about all the consequences of such a haircut.
  • The groomer must be able to establish contact with animals. For many dogs, a new place and the procedure itself causes great stress. Rough treatment will only make the situation worse. And rudeness in itself is unacceptable in any salon.

It is important to take care of such a high-maintenance breed. Otherwise, the luxurious dog turns into a shapeless ball of hair. Beautiful coat is an indicator of the health of the Spitz and the quality of care on the part of the owner.

Spitz have long and amazingly beautiful hair, which requires delicate and regular care. One of its elements is regular haircuts. This article will look at how and when to cut your Spitz's hair and whether it's worth getting a haircut at all.

What a fox haircut looks like: photo and description

This haircut makes the fox-type Pomeranian look surprisingly similar to a red fox, only of a small size. To make your pet even more like a beautiful fox, you need to adhere to a certain technique:

  1. The fur on the face, back and belly is cut in such a way as to give the Spitz the shape of a red fox.
  2. Excess hair on the ears is trimmed.
  3. The collar area is shortened and beautifully designed.
  4. Particular attention is paid to the tail of the orange, achieving maximum resemblance to a fox.

This hairstyle option is great for red-colored pets, but you can also do it for a black puppy or a chocolate-colored adult dog. This option allows you to keep the fur clean without unnecessary shortening of the hairs. The fox haircut does not harm the quality of the coat and grows back quickly.

Spitz fox and bear: differences

If you compare a fox and a bear cub, you can highlight the following differences:

  1. The bear haircut is more “extreme”; the hair is shaved quite short.
  2. They cut the baby “bear-like” with a clipper, using scissors only to trim the pile.
  3. The muzzle of a bear cub is made more round, and that of a fox is made “elongated”.
  4. In the first case, the tail is practically shaved off, and in the second, it is made to look like a fox's.
  5. And the most important difference. After a hairstyle like Boo, the fur takes a very long time to grow, and its quality suffers. Fox grows faster and the quality practically does not change.

Both of these varieties will not allow the breeder to exhibit the pet at shows.

The danger of such a haircut

Nursery owners warn! Think a few times and consult with experts whether you should give your pet this hairstyle.

Why not

If, despite the advice of grooming experts, you still decide to cut your pet's hair short, there is a possibility that you will encounter a number of problems. It’s not for nothing that Spitz dogs are naturally blessed with such thick and fluffy fur.

What will happen

Here are some of the most common problems you may encounter after cutting your Pomeranian fox haircut:

  1. Decreased thermoregulation. Dense fur allows you to regulate heat and protect the body from hypothermia or heat stroke. Losing the natural barrier, the baby becomes defenseless against moisture, heat and frost.
  2. Loss of guard hairs. A short cut removes the body, leaving only the undercoat. It very quickly falls into tangles and gives the pet an unkempt appearance. The fur gets dirty faster and loses its protection. You will have to constantly bathe the dog.
  3. Shedding. The undercoat will constantly fall out, contaminating the floor of your home with small fluff. You will have to regularly comb your Spitz thoroughly after each walk.
  4. Long fouling. Even if you cut your baby's hair once and decide to grow the fur back, it will take a very long time. Usually this period takes several moults, which is almost two years. However, there is a danger that the fur will not return to its original appearance.
  5. Parasites. A clipped dog is an excellent treat not only for mosquitoes and midges, but also for fleas and ticks.
  6. Viral infections. It is easier for such a pet to catch a viral disease.
  7. Mechanical alopecia. Dogs that are frequently trimmed can develop baldness, for which treatment is not only time-consuming, but also expensive.

Before you subject your dog to this test, weigh the pros and cons.

Haircut options

Model haircuts have also been developed for dogs. Their options depend on the breed and whether the animal participates in exhibitions. Most often, a standard haircut is performed, which is practical. Poodles need a small mane if they are given a lion cut. This hairstyle requires complex care. The shorter the length of the fur on the paws, the less they get dirty. It is also not recommended for Cockers to leave long “pants” and “skirts”, as this makes daily grooming easier.

Hygienic grooming is necessary for all pets, regardless of coat structure and breed characteristics. The fur is removed on the face, hairs are removed near the anus.

Professional groomers have a large number of tools and know different cutting techniques to bring dogs into the desired appearance. In particular, the following techniques are used:

  • Clipperweak. Short haircut with clipper. Can be performed against the coat or according to height.
  • Show trim consists of a whole range of manipulations to prepare a pet for an exhibition. This type of haircut is performed exclusively by professional groomers.
  • Top notch is a type of haircut that involves the use of a variety of bows, barrettes and elastic bands. Top note is the final stage of preparation for long-haired dog shows. This is not always just a decorative procedure. For example, for dogs that have bulging eyes or a coat length of more than 10 cm, this manipulation is considered mandatory.
  • Flatvec is the leveling of the coat along its length. This procedure is done if it is necessary to adjust the dog’s appearance to the standards accepted for this breed. Flitwick can be made with a machine or scissors, your choice.
  • Blending involves cutting the wool using thinning scissors. Thinning of wool of different lengths is carried out. This procedure is the final stage; it gives the cover an aesthetic appearance in accordance with the requirements of the standards.
