Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This tool comes in pliers-type, scissors-type, and guillotine-type.

Answer: Nail Clippers

The heavy-duty pliers type are best suited for large dogs, and dogs with really hard nails.
2. This most commonly groomed breed of dog comes in three sizes; Standard, Mini, and Toy.

Answer: Poodle

There are several different clips for the poodle. Some of these are the dutch clip, the kennel or utility clip, the royal dutch clip, and the summer or bikini clip.
3. Short-haired breeds such as the Labrador and the Bullmastiff never have to be groomed because they don't shed.

Answer: False

Shedding is a natural process in which the dog loses dead hair.
4. The "saddle" area of an Afghan Hound always occurs naturally.

Answer: False

Poorly-bred dogs may not have a saddle. The "saddle" of the Afghan hound may be plucked by hand or by the use of a stripping knife.
5. Squeezing these glands of the dog is a somewhat unpleasant task of most groomers.

Answer: Anal Glands

Anal glands are located on the inside of the anus. These glands usually express themselves when dogs defecate. Sometimes they become impacted and dogs often "scoot" when they become too full and uncomfortable.
6. The pom-poms that are left around the ankles in some poodle clips are called _______ .

Answer: bracelets

The poms left on the poodle's joints most often seen in the show ring were actually left there to help keep the dog warm when he was swimming through cold water while hunting with his master.
7. The vein running through the nail of the dog is called __________ .

Answer: the quick

A tip on how to stop bleeding if a nail is cut too short, is to stuff a bar of ivory soap onto the bleeding nail.
8. A comb or lift is attached to a blade in order to leave the coat longer than the blade alone.

Answer: True

A comb or lift is most often used on a #15, #30, or a #40 blade.
9. Which of these blades leaves the longest length of hair?

Answer: #3 1/2 blade

The #3 1/2 blade leaves approximately 1/2" of coat. This is a great length for a "puppy cut".
10. Vets advise that all dogs should be bathed at least once a week.

Answer: False

Bathing a dog too often can cause damage to the dog's coat and skin, although use of mild products does reduce the risk. Generally, dogs only need bathing if they are smelly. This does not apply to dogs with skin conditions, which may need regular bathing under the guidance of a veterinary expert.
