Handstripping
« on: November 06, 2014, 07:27:29 PM »
Hi everyone, just wondered has anyone watched the Jackie Maris-Bray DVD on handstripping. We have had our gold Cocker Etta for a month now, she is 2 yr old and has always been handstripped, I groomed my other cocker myself but she was clipped and scissored, but would like to learn handstripping as Etta has a lovely coat.

I would recommend trying to find a breeder of Cockers or a breed specialist groomer (some are both) in your area to help show you what to do. Videos are good, but you can't beat hands on advice.  :D
