When i was working as a tech i saw way too many injuries to pets from owners trying to scissor out mats. Also, its easier to clipper and scissor clean, dry hair right after a bath. The dog will come out more even and look better. When clippering legs be careful of the joint areas (like the hock and carpus) with all the little bumps and grooves. They are easy to nick places. |
I could not get the clippers through the mats

is there something I'm doing wrong?
