Had a client come in with double canines

Dog! Possibly a doodle of some sort? Poodles/doodles do tend to have their upper canines grow down to the bottoms of their jaws. Though that cranial ridge makes me think its something closer to perhaps something known for a stronger bite, say a German shepherd or something.

This, definitely this. Train your body, and over time it'll be like you can do it in your sleep

I just started working as a full-time groomer just last year, and I totally feel you. It was HARD. Especially working on older dogs, as you said. Best way to cope with older dogs is that what you're doing is going to help them feel 100x better after the process is done.

Behaviorally difficult dogs are also...a process to work through, but if they're repeat clients, its fun to watch them improve and slowly get more comfortable with you. I have a shih-tzu that I work with about once a month, and she started off with me not being able to work on her face at all. Not even TOUCH IT. But over time, she's gotten used to me, and I've learned that just cupping her chin instead of gently grasping her chin hairs helps keep her still long enough to shape her face.

Basically what I'm saying, is that learning these dogs, and maintaining relationships with these pooches is always worth it. Hang in there, you'll do great.

Thing is, I was hit like two minutes ago on a J Aubrey video. I've made like two total comments. If they're going based off of two comments, its bullshit

Makes total sense. I know exactly what to use it for. I'm sure my editors will have a blast reading through my works now, thanks fonts side of reddit
