What Every Dog Groomer and Pet Owner Should Know About Grooming Scissors

I would like to introduce my brand-new book 'Dog Grooming Scissors, What Every Dog Groomer Should Know.'

From my many years of experience working with all different makes of grooming scissors and from the feedback of a vast number of dog groomers who explained that they were not or have not been taught how to use or take care of their grooming scissors, I decided to create this book.

This book serves as a helpful guide on every aspect of owning dog grooming scissors, helping to empower both right and left-handed dog groomers of all experience levels and pet owners with the knowledge of how to take care of their grooming scissors and as a result get very best performance from their grooming shears for many years.

• The History of Scissors.
