Title: What to do with the legs !
Post by: Philtrum on September 25, 2008, 12:27:49 PM

Hi All

I've handstripped Mabel's back and head, used thinning scissiors where it was not ready to pull, trimmed her feet

question is ... what do you do with the legs ... I've used the thinning scissors on the front of her front legs a little .. to thin it out a bit, as she looked like she had thunderthighs after her top half was trimmed lol

also ... them damn armpit mats ... any ideas to stop them happening ?

pictures would be most welcomed :)

Cheers
Phil

sorry no advice really as Tilly gets clipped and we have her armpits shaved  ph34r to stop the matting there.

I dont know whether I am just lucky, but we dont get any tatts there on Alfie atall. I do brush him twice a day so I dont know whether that helps.

William is mostly hand stripped but I use the clippers to do his armpits and the area immediately under his bottom.
