I’ve been asked so many times to re-post my hand stripping grooming video guides… so here they are back by popular demand. 👑
Here’s more video’s in Dana’s Strip Back Series.
Dana had over 3 months of coat growth. At this stage the only way to return her coat back to breed standard and show-quality condition was to fully remove the blown (dead) coat allowing healthy new coat growth to come through correctly.
In these videos Dana is in a completely blown coat.
👑 Please note that Dana was not stressed or hurt during this grooming process.
👑 Please note that hand stripping is not cruel.
👑 Please note that when carried out correctly hand stripping can be a calming and relaxing experience for both dog and groomer alike.
👑 Please note that hand stripping is a natural process and is vital for maintaining a correct wire coat and healthy skin.
👑 Please note that these videos are here to help those wanting to learn the art of hand stripping as well as those wishing to improve and build on their existing skills and knowledge whether you are a dog owner or a groomer.
👑 These videos demonstrate Pet Strips and not Show Strips.
👑Separate videos will also be added showing both Dana and her son Cillian being prepared for Show Strips.
