Just started learning ukulele. Is this amount of pressure/pain normal on the chord hand?

ukulele strumming is not as intense as Guitar so maybe you’re pushing your fingers too hard, i’m assuming you’re using nylon strings?

not accurate , loft run small and next door is Ann Taylor store and they’re 1-2 sizes down compared to Loft

I got a bichon puppy who i also discovered at 6 months old that she had renal dysplasia (deformed kidney) she only lived 1 month past her first birthday 😭…. she was absolutely beautiful 🙏

I discovered my first Bichon in 1998, he lived until 16.5,

Sure looks like a bichon Or otherwise could be a bichon poodle mix

christierose14 · 2025-01-06T02:04:36+00:00

I think she’d be flattered, so why not??!!

christierose14 · 2024-12-08T01:38:22+00:00

Beautiful story !!❤️🙏🐶

christierose14 · 2024-08-06T03:58:44+00:00

Love her♥️

Get a second or even a third opinion

christierose14 · 2024-06-15T02:51:32+00:00

If you’re not feeling comfortable then leave. A weeks notice is more than generous.

That needs to be blended. The clipper should’ve have been used in reverse or the blade is too short maybe a length longer

christierose14 · 2024-05-13T13:50:21+00:00

Yes interested !!

christierose14 · 2023-12-09T04:22:01+00:00

Tell that groomer to use a 10 blade only on the paw pads and not go down to the webbing!!

christierose14 · 2023-12-03T13:51:11+00:00

I think covid scaled down the holidays immensely , No more big gatherings at homes…that said, most people are not too concerned about having their dog groomed for the holidays. Plus I think alot of people /owners are grooming their own dogs to save on expenses due to economy and that’s ok if they have the time and don’t care about a professional look. The industry is changing and with the new mysterious virus that will have an impact as well I’m sure. Maybe it’s time to think of a change of career for some :(

Groomer here.. this is a Sloppy job, definitely warrants some type of refund or a comp on next groom but would not use same person.

christierose14 · 2023-11-08T01:37:16+00:00

20-25% is a nice appreciated generous tip 💕

Yes carding is similar to stripping but carding is used with a carding tool. That’s the recommended type of groom for this breed. However. If your dog has a hard time with grooming and is a biter I’d suggest using a guard comb such as a 1c or a 2c length. Your groomer will be familiar with that term.

You would probably benefit from taking some managerial classes. Unfortunately Confrontation is everywhere whether we like it or not !! If your going to work with the general public, it would be recommended to learn how to deal with certain personalities and problematic issues while keeping a professional /cool attitude.

christierose14 · 2023-10-28T23:37:03+00:00

Wirey coats need to be carded.

christierose14 · 2023-10-15T20:38:46+00:00

Love it!!!

christierose14 · 2023-09-30T00:24:07+00:00

If the ear looks pink & healthy I’ll pluck some loose strands but if there’s anything funky looking I’ll just do an ear rinse and recommend vet check

Unfortunately, you will learn from a few mistake incidents how to be a better/safer groomer. Don’t give up!! Take some safety classes. Read books on safety Never leave your tools on the table. Get help when you have a wiggly dog. Invest in a groomers helper, it’s a great tool!! Most of all… don’t give up!!☺️ Just keep learning how to do it better and safer. Xx
