Shetland Sheepdog ESSENTIAL Double Scissor Pack - Safety Bull Nose & Thinning Scissor Combo - BLUE

The Essential Shetland Sheepdog Scissor Duo

Every Shetland Sheepdog owner understands the importance of keeping their dog's coat looking its best. With their expressive faces, flowing coats and graceful builds, Shetland Sheepdogs have an unmistakable appeal. Regular grooming helps keep them comfortable and looking tidy. Coat care should respect their long double coat, with home scissor work kept light and considered. This duo is intended for those occasional finishing touches where appropriate.

Bull Nose Safety Scissors

Designed with rounded tips for extra safety, these scissors may be useful for carefully tidying small amounts of excess hair around your Shetland Sheepdog's feet, where needed and appropriate.

Ideal for small areas that require a gentle touch, their rounded tips help reduce the risk of accidental pokes while you tidy. Always work slowly, keep the blades clear of the skin and avoid cutting into mats or tangles. Leave hair close to or between the pads to a professional groomer if you cannot clearly see where you are cutting. Rounded tips do not remove the risk of injury, so leave difficult or sensitive areas to a professional.

Thinning Scissors for a Natural Finish

A Shetland Sheepdog's double coat consists of long, straight outer hair and a soft, dense undercoat. Regular brushing and thorough combing should maintain its natural fullness, with any scissor work focused on minor finishing touches.

Thinning scissors may be used sparingly on a clean, thoroughly brushed and tangle-free coat to soften small uneven edges around the feet, where appropriate. A professional groomer familiar with Shetland Sheepdog coats can advise on whether any trimming is needed and demonstrate suitable techniques.

These scissors should not be used at home to thin the body coat, remove large amounts of hair or dramatically reshape your dog's natural outline. Keep the mane, body coat, feathering and tail natural, with any more involved trimming left to an experienced professional.

This duo does not replace regular brushing, combing and appropriate coat care. Whiskers should be left untouched, and mats or tangles should never be cut out with scissors at home. The aim is a neat, comfortable finish that preserves your Shetland Sheepdog's natural coat texture and distinctive appearance.
