When grooming puppies do most let the body grow out and only do the FFT?? I told you once I got some clippers I was going to go clipper happy!! I want to have some fun!! :whoo: Not really, but I jsut wanted to know when!
I know!! He was literally falling asleep and his feet were sliding out from under him!! I felt bad and told him we would finish later. I got him all tuckered out so that he would cooperate(which he did), but too much!!
If you are going to show your puppy at 6 months, you will need to prepare for the puppy cut at about 4-5 months, in order to let it settle down and be gone over a few times before show day.
Here in England, we seem to want the puppies to have more of a mane than I have seen on the American sites. I cut my puppy into show trim at 4 months, just scissoring the lower back and blending the puppy pants into it. I didn't take too much off at first, as I needed time to assess where the mane should begin. Then I just tipped the mane to avoid split ends.
