I have decided to have a go and groom Ruby myself but have to wait for mothers day/birthday combo to get all the equipment i need.
So today i took her to a groomer recommended by a friend as my usual groomer is the one i posted about before who takes 3 hours etc etc and am not going to use any more though she cuts Ruby EXACTLY how i like her.
So this new woman grooms at her house lets the dog explore the secure garden etc and is very nice and everything but must admit i have never seen her finished result on a cocker,only a schnauzer and an old english sheepdog but both people said their dogs were happy and the groomer gave them fresh chicken as a treat after their groom which i thought was a nice thing to do.
It's my own fault i know,BUT
The inside of Rubys ear flaps were not clipped out,her feet look scruffy and hacked,under her toes had not been touched and there was a matt left in one paw,her skirt is wonky,i could go on
The worst thing is all of her body,down her back legs and on one side of her face
is covered in clipper lines my long winded post is to ask this..
What causes these clipper marks to happen as i don't want to do it myself when it's my turn to groom her
