grooming workshop or lessons needed
« on: January 28, 2010, 07:48:29 PM »
Just wondered how or where I would find someone to do a couple of lessons or a workshop about clipping Harry into a proper cocker shape!  I've looked at the link to Michele's info about which blades for which bit  :005:  My efforts at clipping Ben have been short and functional  ph34r so would love to know how to do it properly this time with Harry.
 
I'm in Derbyshire and don't mind travelling if you know anyone knowledgable about cocker hair cuts  ;)

Thanks, but Essex might be too far, I was hoping Derbyshire, South Yorkshire, Staffordshire, Notts if possible :luv:

That would be a good idea!

Is there anyone in the Renfrewshire area, that could help me.
I feel that being shown how to do it, is better than a video or book.

The breeder that I got Sam from lives 150miles away so it isn't convenient
for me to get over there.

So Glasgow, Renfrewshire area would be great.  :blink:

Hi kirstyb

Thanks for that information.   But a wee bit too far away. 
But it got me going and went on the internet and found a place
that does courses in Greenock, which is a lot nearer for me.
So have e-mailed them this morning to found out more.

My birthday is coming up, so I can ask hubby for the lessons!!! :lol2:
