Award winning pet stylist, Lisa Leady continues her series on Petit Basset Griffon Vendeens, or PBGVs for short. In this lesson, Lisa works on a PBGV that has been out of the show ring for a while. Her owners would like to bring her back into the AKC conformation ring. In this lesson, Lisa shows you how to correctly groom a PBGV for the show ring.

The breed standard clearly states this is NOT a breed that should be overly groomed. The look is rough and tousled. To get the correct look, the breed is handstripped. She shows you how to get that look using a minimal amount of tools – just like they would have done in years gone by. She shows you how to groom the PBGV to breed standard. Lisa will show you how to highlight key points while keeping the messy look.

In this video you will learn:

• How to identify which hairs should be removed.

• The best way to get the classic ‘tousled look’ on a PBGV.

• The key conformational points of the breed and how to highlight them.

• Ways to overcome a cowlick in a coat.

• Shortcuts you can take while still doing it correctly for the breed ring.
