PART 2
Presenter: Colleen Beagley
Dog: Mila the Mini Schnauzer
Recorded at: igroomhub HQ, 3rd October 2025
Colleen is here to demonstrate how you can simplify the Miniature Schnauzer groom for the salon while keeping the breed’s bold outline and expression intact. The sessions cover coat prep, carding, clipper patterns, leg work, feet, eyebrows, and beard shaping.
Rather than overcomplicating the trim, the focus is on repeatable systems, clear structure, and confident finishing that works in day-to-day grooming. Ideal if you want schnauzers to feel more manageable without drifting into soft or teddy-style results.
Study notes are provided with each replay to help you move quickly through the content.
