Title: Tried coat king for first time
Post by: rubybella on July 15, 2014, 06:39:17 PM

And after

I have never wanted to clip Bella as I like the natural, slightly messy look! However we have been struggling with grass seeds and burs this year, plus I think she was finding her coat a bit warm.

It may not look much different on these pictures but I can see a big difference. I almost filled a carrier bag with fluff!!

I am very happy with the end product.

I use a Coat King on Murphy and it does the job really well. You have to make sure you don't over use it though. I just give Murphy a quick 10 minute going over about every 2 weeks.

I think Bella looks great.

I believe the 20 blade us the recommended one for cockers.  I have one, got it from amazon and is great especially getting out the fluffy undercoat in this hot weather just remember not to over use it.
