The DVD runs for 152 minutes which includes nearly 30 minutes of interviews with Helen and Alan Banfield and Joan and Derek Briggs.

Helen - who has been a leading figure in the UK bichon show scene for many years talks about various aspects of the bichon - her husband Alan talks about the specially formulated cream they have developed to remove tear staining.

Joan reads one of her bichon poems and talks about her series of 9 bichon books - whilst Derek talks about Bichon Frise Rescue.

During the opening sequence Chas is seen drinking from the bird bath - barking at the pigeons and running in the garden! He also makes sure that he is very prominent on Joan and Derek's laps whilst they are talking! Dylan makes a brief appearance for a treat .

Despite what Chas may think - Zoe Duffy and her two bichons are  the real stars of the show. Zoe shows how to bathe the bichon - explains how and why she is cutting in a certain manner - talks about the various grooming aids.

This DVD is aimed at the professional groomer who wants to keep up with the latest bichon show cut and the home groomer who wants to make a better job of keeping their bichon looking and feeling good.

Bichon Frise Master Class by Zoe Duffy

Two very different styling techniques, but one very similar outcome!

The Show Bichon Frise

Of course, every single hair on the Bichon Frise should be scissored to perfection –if you intend entering the show ring and that’s exactly what Zoe Duffy ( British Groomer of the Year 2005) demonstrates on the first of her two beautiful models.

Watch the Master with her Cruft’s winner, ‘Rus’ demonstrate the whole grooming process of this Show stopping Dog!

The Pet Bichon Frise

Clipping the pet Bichon- YES CLIPPING! And NO, she does NOT look like a Poodle!!

· A quicker and lower maintenance trim, for the pet or retired show Bichon.

· Don’t be afraid to do this- IT ISN’T A CRIME TO CLIP!!!!!!!!!!!! Blend and shape to achieve an attractive looking Bichon in a fraction of the time!
