Hello!!!
First of all, i will apologise for my bad english, but it's all that i got, so i hope that you understand me.
My name is sandra and i'm from Portugal. I've got two male cockers (a black one and a blue roan one) that i'm starting to take into shows....
It's me that makes his own grooming, but i'm afraid that with what i've read so far, i'm making some mistakes..... :?
I do some hand stripping in him, but, for example, in their head, the hair doesn't go out (speccially in the roan) and i finish for taking his hair with thinnings scissours....
Another problem that i've is the hair near the neck (in the sides): i do hand stripping, but again, it doesn't get out much hair, so i finish to use a stripping knife, to get them a straight look.... i'm i doing wrong?
And finnally, how much hair shoul i leave is the sides (all body)
?
I've seen the photos in the other posts, mas i don't think they are for show purposes....
Thank's
Sandra, Ralph and Black
