Oh my!!! I am so sqeamish about this stripping business
Over the past two weeks Indie has been transformed into a hairy, fluffy, mammoth
She is almost 6 months now, I haven't attempted anything on her at the moment, except the normal grooming, to be honest she has really only just become fluffy. I am quite lucky in the way of there is a local(ish) grooming parlour who do handstrip and its quite handy as they breed and show cockers and field spaniels. So I guess they know what they are doing
My problem is knowing exactly the right time to start the stripping? I am sooo scared of them hurting her
Do I just gently pluck and see if it comes out easy?
I was given a tip recently too by a a gentlemen from our local cocker rescue, not sure how good a tip it is though as I have yet to try it. He said to get her used to rubber bands, as you can pop them around your hands when stripping the legs, has anyone heard/used this method before??
Thanx
