Product Information

It’s important that you don’t bathe a wiry coat too often because it can cause the hair to dry out. When you bathe your dog, it’s important that you use a shampoo specifically formulated for wiry haired breeds due to the unique makeup of their coat. If your dog is dirty, it’s worth bathing and drying before grooming to make the job easier. Spaniels and terriers, particularly rough or wire coated terriers, are commonly hand stripped and there are a number of advantages to hand stripping rough or wire-haired dogs over clipping them. Clipping wiry or rough fur with grooming clippers can cause the very tips of the top coat’s hairs to lose their rough texture, which causes the coat to look dull and doesn’t show the dog’s colouring to its full effect.

Because it is not as physically stressful for your dog, it can help reduce anxiety levels in dogs with certain conditions like separation anxiety or fear aggression issues. Thinning shears: Thinning shears are used to blend in the hand-stripped areas with the rest of the coat. They help create a seamless transition between the stripped and unstripped areas. If the owner does not intend to show their dog you could consider scissoring round their pet’s feet or groin if they are sensitive in those areas during hand stripping. Stripping will take longer than clipping so remember to charge your customers accordingly and make sure enough time is reserved for each hand stripping appointment so you can get an excellent finish.If you want to, you can use just one stripping knife in any size to groom your beloved four-legged friend, though it’s actually much more comfortable and fun to have a few different stripping knives on hand.

Recommended by professional g.... The process is somewhat given away by its name – stripping loose hair by hand. But it is not all that simple. Hand stripping is a type of grooming method that dog owners use to remove excess hair from their dog’s coat. The most common method of dog grooming is clipping, this method involves the use of a pair of electric clippers which cut or shave the top layer of hair on a dog’s coat. The difference between clipping and hand-stripping is that not only is hand-stripping done by hand, but it removes coat from the root (not just the top layer) so a new coat is able to grow in. Each time you clip a dog’s coat instead of hand stripping, you are just taking off the top layer of dead fur rather than removing it from the roots. As a result, the coat may become duller in texture and color with each clipping, which is why many people consider hand stripping to be preferable. Is it an ideal solution for every dog? Of course not, it all depends on the dog and the coat. For some dogs, it’s not just the best solution, but the only one as well. Hand stripping is an effective way to remove undercoats and dead dog’s hair. The best part is that hand stripping can be done at home on different dog breeds.If you want to try hand stripping for yourself but are not sure how much time it will take per session, consider hiring someone else to do it.
