I am after some advice from all you peeps in the know!!
I am keen to hand strip 8 month old Monty who is a light blue roan and tan. He went back to his breeder at around 6 months of age for a puppy trim and tidy up and she showed me how to hand strip him. I bought all the goodies, including finger coats and am finding the whole process of stripping his coat very relaxing!
.
I will shortly be arranging to take him back to his breeder again for the next stage of coat care/instruction(!), but in the meantime I have a query - and it might seem a really silly one to those of you in the know, so sorry in advance!!
I have been working on Monty's body area and head and his puppy fluff is coming out beautifully, however, can I strip out too much? In other words, will only the fluffy stuff that is meant to come out easily, come out? I don't want to leave the poor boy furless!!
I would like to have made a good start on the handstripping before we go back to the breeder as I would like her to show me how to properly tidy up his ears, feet and thin/tidy up his feathering - I am loathe to attack these areas in case I wreck them!!
Thank you in advance for any help and guidance!
