I want to learn to groom and clip my poodle for shows. I am a beginner
in grooming poodles.
I want to do it with the help of a DVD or VHS.
The kind of clip I am interested is called the Scandinavian clip or a Puppy clip. 
I do not want DVD or VHS that are talking about grooming dogs in general.

I have not found any tutorial videos mentioning the Scandinavian clip,
but I have found one DVD which teches the Puppy clip for poodles:

"Grooming Poodles 2 [...]

In this breed specific grooming video, award winning groomer Greg
Kellas demonstrates how to use the Lamb Clip, the Puppy Clip and the
Utiliey Clip.  Various blades are used and scissoring techniques are
discussed.  All demonstrations are done on Standard Poodles for the
benefit of viweing, but all clips can be accomplished on any sized
Poodle.

Note: If you do not have grooming experience, we recommend purchasing
Basic Grooming-101 along with your breed specific DVD.  Basic Grooming
video covers all "basics," i.e. bathing, nail trimming, combing and
brushing, etc.  All other videos cover breed specific clipping
techniques only, and they do not repeat the basic grooming needs."

(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BHFYDA/)

Amazon.com is currently sold out for this title, but it may be
purchased from its producer at http://www.wizardsofpaws.com/DVDs.htm
for US$34.95 (+ $5.94 shipping).  You can se a short preview of the
DVD (45 seconds) at http://www.wizardsofpaws.com/PoodleNew2.wmv

The web site also sells the first part of the "Grooming Poodles"
series, covering the Miami Clip and the Dutch Clip.

Good luck in making your dog look its best!

The description of "Grooming Poodles - Part Two" at
http://www.wizardsofpaws.com/DVDs.htm is nearly identical to the one
at amazon.com, and clearly states that this DVD does demonstrate how
to perform the Puppy Clip:

"Grooming Poodles - Part Two [..]

In this segment we demonstrate the Lamb Clip, the Puppy Clip and the
Utiliey Clip. Various blades are used and scissoring techniques are
discussed.  All demonstrations are done on Standard Poodles for the
benefit of viweing, but all clips can be accomplished on any sized
Poodle."

For books on poodle grooming, I'd recommend Poodle Clipping and
Grooming: The International Reference by Shirlee Kalstone.  According
to its index, it contains descriptions of both the Puppy Clip and the
Scandinavian Puppy Lion Clip
(http://lookinside2-images.amazon.com/Qffs+v35lepslu8ssMbQTtc3VXtWfUzuMV31K+AhyfMun+5/JYvSYFOK0kxsxMKa).
 The book costs US$ 19.77 from amazon.com
(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0876052650/).

It is correct that the DVD is no longer available on amazon.com, but
it still listed for sale at http://www.wizardsofpaws.com/DVDs.htm. 
Have you tried ordering it from that website?

I am sorry to tell you that I am unable to provide you with further
details on this matter.  If you are dissatisfied with the information
I supplied, you can request your question to be re-posted once again. 
If you receive a second answer and are still not satisfied, you may
apply for a full refund, less the non-refundable $0.50 listing fee. 
See http://answers.google.com/answers/faq.html#refund for details.
Reason this answer was rejected by ossi-ga:
It is very clear from my qwestion that I did not ask to find a video
or a dvd that teaches just to clip a poodle. I want to learn about a
show clip. Nothing that I asked was answered. Even the 1 video that
teaches poodle clip did not talk about the Scandinavian clip! in the
explanation and the short demonstration it is said that it is a basic
clip! AND NOTHING ABOUT SHOWS
I am sure I did not get an answer to my qwestion!!
