Suz, would you fancy doing Barnaby, the little black cocker, that my friend has, not sure when she wants him done but it wont be long he’s six months in june so she’ll be able to start showing him. She took Max the other one to the place near us and i think they used clippers on him, I’ve been told once you’ve done that they cant be shown, and she wants to give it a go see how he gets on, told her you were Portsmouth way, but its not that far and we’d come to you. 🙂

Sticking my nose in here as I do when the coat on the older dog has grown out she could show him again but to be honest she should learn how strip for herself groomers that can turn out a showdog are far and few between cannot the breeder show her?

She gets really bad arthritis so wouldnt be able to do it herself, she also not wanting to show Max, maybe fun ones, but Barnaby is really nice. Suz I’m sure you’d do a great job from what I’ve seen :-*
Val do you do home visits 😉 😉

Thanks Sue -the dogs I do are just pets though thats thr problem, if I dont get it just right no one will kill me  😉

What a breed to have with arthritis does she live near her breeder? no I don’t do home visits in fact it’s been a few years since i played with a show cocker  ::) what she needs to do is get the breeder to set the body pattern and then she could have a daily or even weekly pick at the coat to keep the shape, he would still need a bath before showing so the coat flows.
They are not really a breed I have a great interest in so I don’t tend to follow the coat styles.
I really just prefer a coated dog without all the dam stripping, for a laugh find the beardies on Sunday they will be brushing like mad LOL so will those paps all the paps will be shimmering white with polished colour

she doesnt live near the breeder, other end of country, I know someone who has their border collie groomed for showing in Ash, which isnt far, maybe I’ll find out if she’d do him.
Also I could ask a few cocker showers tomorrow or sunday if they know of any good groomers nearby 🙂

thanks x

Borders are a lot easier a breeder would be better as they are the ones in the ring

ok another question

teddy is a dark gray mostly but it goes a tinged red around his mouth and where he pees on him self  and a bit on his back i no that the mouth is from saliva and were he pees on him self on his skirt is there any products that would help the pee stains from setting in and on his back where it is also a odd shade is this the sun ? i cant think what else would coause it on his back

im going to start to try and pin his coat up when he gose for a walk so he dosnt pee so much on him self  ::) what is it with men and being able to aim hehe

so i was just wondering if there is any thing that would help or is it just one of those things
