I was at a grooming trade show the first time Debi Hilley introduced her seminar on wet-clipping matted dogs. It was standing-room only, and groomers excitedly talked about what they had learned all weekend. Since then, many people have authored articles and taught about the topic, but still, not all groomers know about the magic of wet clipping.
A customer who arrived a few minutes early to pick up their Yorkshire Terrier last week watched as I finished the dog’s haircut. “He acts a lot better for you than he does for me,” he said. “He seems so calm.”
