When the breeder used to clip Barney she followed his line when she cut his skirt (this is how she described it) and I've been trying to do the same
Because of the hot weather I've been thinning him out quite a bit but am not sure what to do with the skirt area. It's quite thick (he's been neutered) and tends to get matted. I use a coat king and thinning scissors but am a bit reluctant to run the coat king down his skirt in case it cuts it all off. I think the breeder used to use the coat king on his underneath with her husband holding him up. OH has just had a hip replacement so we're not able to do that at the moment and I know he won't just roll over and let me do it.
Any advice gratefully received
Thanks
Sue
