How to Groom a Poodle Opso Mix
Brush your Poodle Opso mix daily. Frequent brushing will keep the fur mats to a minimum and will make clipping the dog much simpler.
Bathe your dog before clipping the hair. Use a good quality dog shampoo and be sure to rinse the soap completely from the coat and apply a good conditioner. This conditioner will help keep static and tangles from developing in your Poodle Opso’s thick hair.
Trim your Poodle Opso’s coat with the clippers. Most Poodle Opso mix dogs are trimmed short in a basic puppy clip. You can clip your dog however you choose, but the shorter you trim the coat, the less often you will have to do it.
Comb your dog over again to make sure you’ve removed any mats from the coat. Mats are very painful and can cause injury if not removed.
Clip you dog’s nails. Trun off only a small amount at a time to avoid cutting them too short and causing any pain.
Trim any remaining long hairs with the scissors. Check your dog over carefully to make sure you’ve properly groomed your Poodle Opso mix.
