Title: How to shape chest
Post by: dipsydoodlenoodle on July 07, 2014, 11:16:12 PM

Hiya :)

I'm looking for advice on how to shape Charlie's chest...here are some pics of him today (he's on hols enjoying his swimming, so he's a bit frizzy and in need of a trim)...I always think he looks a little boxy...Does he look ok, or does he need a bit of shaping to it? Where do I cut the line in?

I know he needs a bit off, I'm just not confident at where I should be cutting :(

Suggest you follow the natural shape and take off a couple of cm. If you look at pics of cockers that are shown you will see the shape-not dissimilar  your boy just a neater edge!
