2) See Fig. 11. Clip hair between the shoulders and hips. Clip under the chest from behind the front legs to the end of the rib cage.
3) Scissor trim to touch up.
Rear Legs:
IMPORTANT:
Be very careful when clipping around the "armpit" and the flank. These are areas of skin that are easy to cut; especially on older dogs
whose skin has loosened.
1) Brush the hair on the back legs in an upward and outward motion to fluff. You can now shape the legs as full or as tapered as you wish.
2) Start by trimming any hair that falls over the foot (Fig.12).
3) Starting at ankle, cut up to hip a little hair at a time (Fig. 13). Once you are at the hip, blend hair so it tapers into shorter body hair. (When using
guide combs on the legs, complete your stroke; don't stop midway.)
4) Repeat with other back leg, making it the same size as the first leg.
5) Touch up with scissors.
Front Legs:
1) With dog facing you, comb hair up and out.
2) Trim front legs to match back legs.
3) Comb up hair at shoulders and blend it with shorter body hair.
4) Comb hair on chest and between front legs; trim it to the length of the shoulder and body hair.
Head:
1) With dog facing you, comb hair on top of the head (topknot) upward and forward (Fig. 14).
2) Scissor cut a square or round topknot.
3) Blend lower topknot hair with the shorter neck hair.
Ears:
1) With dog facing you, clip from top of the ear downward. NEVER turn clipper in other direction.
2) Lay the ear in the palm of your hand. Clip the outside of the ear first, and then the inside (Fig. 15).
3) Hold ear with your free hand and scissor cut the sides. Be careful not to cut the ear itself (Fig. 16).
4) Repeat with other ear, and touch up any stray hairs.
Schnauzer
IMPORTANT:
Trim your Schnauzer at least once before
cropping ears. Otherwise your dog will probably associate
clipping with cropping and make grooming difficult.
1) With dog standing, clip top of back from the base of the skull to the base of the tail. Clip throat, front and sides of body and tail. Clip these areas with
the grain. Clip sides and back of rear legs toward hock; curve the sides into the hock. Do not clip the front of the rear legs.
2) Clip stomach from rear to front. Clip penis hair carefully with the grain. Clip skull from point above eyebrows to the base of the skull and to the ears.
Clip from the outside corner of the eyes to the base of the ears and to the corner of the mouth.
3) Clip both sides of ears from the base to the tip.
4) Scissor cut and trim front legs to gain a rounded and straight appearance. Scissor trim rear legs. Scissor trim eyebrows, muzzle and mustache to
achieve a straight and square look.
Airedale, Irish, Lakeland, Welsh and Wire Fox Terriers.
If you plan to show your terrier and he has a wire coat, stripping, not clipping, is required. However, clipping is a far easier method of grooming
for both pet and groomer.
Clip the same way as the Schnauzer, except the rear legs which do not need clipping. Clip to blend sides of the dog into the hips. Scissor cut and trim
the eyebrows, muzzle and mustache to there cognized standard of the particular breed of dog.
Cockers, Setters and Spaniels
Sporting dogs generally require little clipping. However, long-haire breeds can be more effective in the field when properly groomed. Dogs
should be clipped several weeks in advance of the hunting season to facilitate better hunting, offer greater comfort to the dog, and make coat
care easier.
Clipping also allows growth of the shorter, denser coat that provides warmth and more resistance to burrs and stickers.
1) Clipping with the grain, clip the neck, shoulders and chest. Blend the hair into the body and lower chest. Clip legs and tail.
2) Clip body, if needed. It is suggested that dog's hair be cut to 1/2" to 3/4" long. This may detract from the dog's "looks," but is sensible for a dog used in
hunting.
3) After a day in the field, comb your dog's coat. A "tangle-remover" spray will help get rid of burrs.
FITTING BEEF CATTLE
When clipping large animals, care should be taken as some animals may be nervous around the noise and vibration of the clipper. A
suggestion before fitting your cattle would be to wash your animal with mild animal shampoo and then blow dry. Air blow and brush the
hair forward up toward the ears. Be sure the hair is dry before you begin to clip.Before clipping, gain the animal's confidence. Do this by
approaching the slowly, making sure the animal is aware of your presence. A gentle rubbing to the side of the animal should be sufficient.
With the WAHL #10 STANDARD BLADE, start clipping the animal's neck or throat. Clip against the grain (or lay) of the hair, which will give a slightly
shorter cut. Clip up to the bottom of the animal's head and down to the brisket. Clip the hair on the belly up to the brisket. To increase the depth in the an-
imal's body, leave the hair unclipped from the naval area back. Clip up the sides until you achieve cleanness and levelness in the underline. Clip the hair
around the head, eyes and poll. When clipping the poll, leave about half the poll width unclipped in the center. Completely clip around the tail, approxi-
mately half way down to where the top of the tail ball is tied. Clip up to about where the tail starts to get thicker.
IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE CLIPPER IS SHUT OFF BEFORE ASSEMBLING ATTACHMENT COMBS.
BLENDING
Depending upon the length of cut, use the clipper with or without the attachment comb. To blend the hair from the shoulders to the neck and from the
sides to the belly, hold your clipper upside down with the blades pointed in toward the hair. Then lightly, starting at the top of the hair and stroking down-
ward in a combing type manner, remove just a little hair at a time. To clip the back of the animal use the desired length attachment comb and clip from
the tail head to behind the poll, establishing a straight line across the top of the animal. Try to achieve a wide blocked look by eaving hair longer in areas
that need to be filled in.
FINAL CLIPPING
Apply any desired cosmetics,(i.e. adhesive, show foam, final mist, etc.) to dress up the animal. Tease the end tail hair, tie the hair up and apply adhesive
to form the ball shape. Comb hair into its final position, following by any final freehand trimming. When you are finished, clean your clipper and oil the
