I have a question. does anyone know how the handlers get the show leads on poodles to stay on the side of the poodles head without slipping to the back of the neck? Since Vaus has grown so much coat now, I find it difficult to keep his lead on the side of his head without it going into his neck hair and breaking it off. I have all the different kinds of leads, the snake chain, jewelers link chain, the nylon, and the martingale. Which one is better for the poodle in show coat and how do you fit it properly so it doesn't move?

Thanks alot! My mother told me there is no such thing as a stupid question, your only stupid if you don't ask.
Take two small sections of hair on either side of the collar and band them around the collar. Spray up as usual. :quote
Thank you so much for that tip. I would have never figured that out. I don't have a mentor to tell me tricks like that.

Well, I go to dog shows religously and I read and watch every bit of information about poodles. You can say I'm a bit obsessed with
the breed. When I was a child my mother used to show boxers and a standard poodle from the Mydramajic line. I had a miniature schauzer I used to hand strip myself and enter in match shows. I love the sport of purebred dogs and grew up in it. I was even in obedience. I don't think they had agility when
I was a kid in the AKC! I study and watch everthing I can and I could
probably recite the bred standard the boxer, miniature schnauzer, and the poodle. I love dogs and really should have been a vet instead of a cop. But life brings alternate paths for all of us. Maybe someday though......
