But, then as you said show dogs are different then pets...and diligent care is necessary... Unless, campaigning a dog....they are cut down after Championing....much less worry and so the dogs and I are much happier. |
Funny, my hairdresser of 20 years and my aunt who's a hairdresser have always told me to use a comb on my hair when wet but again it's a "wide" toothed comb. Like hairdressers, groomers are different as well. I prefer my comb to a slicker brush because the way I've done it, Radar's coat has grown so much so better not fix what's not broken LOL
If I didn't keep Radar in oil with his wrappers I'd have more matts than I could shake a finger at and I've never had mildew so again if it's not broken no need to fix
LOL
