Take the hard choice out of it and let a professional groomer and owner of standard poodles help you! These tools have been personally chosen by Joanne(grooming since 2002) . Selected for most short to medium length, selections for Extra long coat will be listed below.

Shampoo & Conditioner & brushing spray: Hydra is from Spain, smells lovely in the salon ish type of smells. scent really lasts. for a LOW SCENT option click here.

Hydra Luxury line is for pet parents, its not highly concentrate so no worries about harsh surfactants or having to figure out dilution ratios. you can also use the Hydra Senses line or professional line(they are concentrate and the Moist shampoo and Moist conditioner is the best all around)

Hydra Luxury Demat spray(want the PRO version? Hydra Dematting spray )

Hydra Scent sampler- small glass spritzers with every scent hydra makes. I dare you to love only one!

ShowTech Maxi Pin brush made in Germany. Large short pins (the longer the coat the longer the pins) Pin brushes do the least damage.

CGD wooden Slicker- Med oval. this slicker was designed by me. fine tines and a soft cushion make it really separate the coat. You will find that the more curly/wooly soft texture and if hair is air dried in clumps it will pull a little more, versus wiry/flatter/and using the brushing spray will greatly help.

KISS aluminum comb in med. my fav comb to put in the hands of pet parents due to its overall size, the coarse and fine sections(spacing between teeth) and the teeth are not too sharp yet not so thick that they do not penetrate coat. for the ultimate fine finishing comb go with KISS scissoring comb. For a strong workhorse comb go with Aesculap
