Carolinasmom Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Hmmm...I'll have to try this! How do you get that dog to just lie there? I got Ellie's back stripped but that's all she will let me do. DH is able to pull a bit. She really bites and growls at me, def. more than at dh. I loved seeing the technique where you fluff it and then pull. I definitely don't have that technique. DH thinks I pull too hard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindasue Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I would have to give Pegi doggie tranquilizers to do that..... Quote Linda & Pegi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradl Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Great demo of how to isolate and pull just a few hairs at a time. Also giving the dog periodic breaks in the form of a little massages so that they know not every touch is a yank. Hard to pull in the direction the coat grows from some angles, but I think most of us would love a dog who lays that quietly for some quality grooming time. Nice job! Thanks for posting it!

hheldorfer Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Amazing, and very smooth technique. Wish I could get Buffy to relax like that for grooming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onesojourner Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 Thanks guys. This part of his back is the easiest. I Start with the head then move on to the feet and legs. Those are the hardest part so I start there. It usually takes me about 2 weeks of several 5-10 min sessions a day to get done. He has been through this every 6 months or so when I first stripped his puppy coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
