Peekapoo Dog Clippers and Grooming Kits
How to Groom a Peekapoo at Home
Grooming a Peekapoo at home is easier than you might think. With the right tools and a calm approach, you can keep their coat healthy, tidy and comfortable. Peekapoos usually have a soft, fluffy coat that can range from wavy to curly, which means regular maintenance is important to prevent tangles and matting. The areas that tend to knot most often are behind the ears, under the legs and around the tail.
Many Peekapoos can be sensitive to noise and movement during grooming, so using quiet and lightweight clippers makes a big difference. Masterclip clippers are designed to be easy to control and gentle to handle, which helps the grooming process feel smoother and less stressful for your dog.
How Often Should You Groom a Peekapoo?
To keep your Peekapoo feeling comfortable and looking neat, we recommend:
• Brushing several times per week
• A full groom every 6 to 8 weeks
Regular brushing prevents mats from forming close to the skin and keeps the coat soft and manageable. Consistent grooming also helps avoid discomfort caused by trapped debris or tight knots.
Basic Grooming Steps for Peekapoos
• Brush your dog thoroughly to remove tangles before clipping
• Use quiet dog clippers on the body and sensitive areas
• Trim around the face, ears and paws with grooming scissors to achieve a tidy finish
Best Dog Clippers for Peekapoos
Peekapoos can inherit coat traits from both the Pekingese and the Poodle, so you may find your dog has either a thick, woolly coat or a fine, silky one. Choosing the right clipper helps ensure a smooth finish and reduces the chance of snagging.
Masterclip offers reliable, high-performance clippers trusted by both home groomers and professionals. Each model is tested for comfort, quiet operation and coat compatibility.

Peekapoo Grooming FAQs
How short should I clip my Peekapoo’s coat?
Most owners choose a blade or comb length that leaves around half an inch to one inch of coat. This keeps them looking fluffy while making brushing easier. If your Peekapoo mats easily you may prefer a shorter trim.
Should I bathe my Peekapoo before or after clipping?
It is best to bathe and fully dry your dog before clipping. A clean coat allows the blades to glide more easily and helps prevent snagging.
My Peekapoo hates grooming. What can I do?
Use quiet clippers, keep sessions short and offer lots of reassurance. Many owners find cordless clippers less intimidating for nervous dogs because there is no trailing cable.
Do Peekapoos shed?
Peekapoos are generally low shedding but loose hair can become trapped in the coat which leads to mats. This is why regular brushing is essential.
What blade lengths work best for Peekapoos?
Longer comb attachments are ideal for a fluffy look while shorter A5 blades give a neat pet trim. The choice depends on your preferred style and how quickly your dog’s coat tangles.
