#DIYGrooming
About two years ago, with some tips from friends, a few YouTube videos and trial and error, I started grooming the Pack myself, here at home! It has been a learning experience!
I finally feel confident enough to share my experience, my routine and my How To DIY Small Fluffy Dog Grooming with all of you!
The Pack are Maltese/Poodle (Maltipoo), Maltese and Maltese/Yorkie/Pekingese mixes, but, I think my steps can be followed for any similar type dog with fluffy hair.
I have put together a Step-by-Step Tutorial, including explanations, videos, photos, links and more! You’ll be able to ask questions, get direct answers, rewatch the videos as often as needed, and really follow along with the process in an easy step by step format.
I am sure that there are many ways to go about home grooming. This is my way. It is what I have found to work best for us!
One of things I found most frustrating with watching YouTube videos on grooming was the fact that they were just one long video. If you wanted to find the part where the groomer was shaving the paws, it was impossible, without spending tons of time jumping around in the video to find the exact right moment.
That’s why I’ve broken my videos into bite sized pieces. Easy to find, easy to watch! No matter what detail you’re looking for.
To join us for the Step-by-Step Tutorial, all you have to do is join the Adventure Squad All Access Plan! Simple, easy and you’ll have access to everything you need!

I know it may feel overwhelming! That is definitely how I felt when I first started! But, it’s totally doable…especially with a step by step tutorial. I had to figure each step as I went, which is why I want to present it in a much easier format for you to follow along.
The best part is the end when you see all your hard work pay off, and your pup has gone from scruffy, scraggly to oh so handsome! And…you did it!!
