And now for the final Artistic touches!

Bumpy the Shih Tzu has been shampooed and rinsed. Now its time to get dry!

Now that Bumpy’s fur is wet he is now ready for a shampoo and rinse.

So now that Bumpy the Shih Tzu has been brushed, he is now ready for the bathtub! Bumpy is a good boy and really seems to enjoy the water.

Last week we posted our interview with Animal Planet’s Groomer of the Year 2008, Artist Knox. Over the weekend, we paid him a visit at his new grooming salon in Los Angeles.

Artist and his dog, Bumpy Johnson demonstrate the basics of how to groom a dog.

The first thing to do is to start by brushing your dog. We will be posting the other steps throughout the week so stay tuned!

I really love D.O.G. Because of them I learned about the rescued puppies of the Riverside Puppy Mill

They connect a lot of dog lovers in Los Angeles through cool events like their Yappy Hour

where I met Artist Knox, the winner of Animal Planet’s grooming competition, Groomer Has It.
