This lesson is the companion video to Handstripping the Cairn Terrier Using the 50/50 Method with Michell Evans. As with any pet dog, you have options on what grooming technique you choose. Those options will be dictated by; the condition of the coat, the attitude of the pet and the owner’s wishes.

Michell has opted to show you two different methods of handstripping on this Cairn Terrier. On one side of the dog she showed you the 50/50 method. In this segment, Michell shows you how to take the coat all the way down to the undercoat coat, removing the majority of the course guard coat. This certainly is not the most ideal way to groom a Cairn Terrier. It leaves the dog heavily overly groomed. The only reason you would take a cairn terrier this close would be for a specific reason. Michell helps you understand why this is a valid option when grooming some Cairn Terriers.

{br} In this video you will learn:

• a simple way to maintain this coat type

• when you need to see the dog again to startthe rotation

• when to determine when the dog is ready to come back

• what tools to use to remove a blown coat

• a trick you can use to remove a lot of coat out of the thigh area
