A Hand Scissored Lamb Trim can be a Creative Dog Grooming Trim

A scissored lamb trim makes a nice looking dog grooming trim and gives you the option to be a little more creative in your dog grooming with the length and the shaping of the coat.

Your dog grooming equipment will be your dog grooming scissors and your greyhound comb

You’ve clipped the coat on the body with the clipper blade of your choice.

Comb up and out the remaining coat on the dogs legs and chest.

With your dog standing and facing you and the hair combed out from the body of your dog, blend the body into the shoulder coming around and blending in the chest, trimming to the desired length.

Scissor approximately 1/3 of the way down the leg.

Bring the dog’s leg out to the front of the dog. Part the coat in the middle of the leg combing it out to the sides. Do this on the top as well as the underside of the leg.

Scissor the leg hair into the line left from your scissoring down the leg.

Turn your dog around and again comb the coat out from the legs and hips. Take your dog grooming curved scissors and blend in the coat from the body to the hip.

With your straight scissors, scissor about halfway down the leg.

Bring the rear leg out to the rear of your dog. Again part the coat in the middle of the leg and scissor into the area you’ve already done. Trim up the tail, be it poodle pompom or a flagged tail.

Make the head of your choice, poodle, teddy bear or maybe terrier head. Be creative.

Trim up the feet and you’re finished.
