Hand Stripping

Unlike, Carding – Hand Stripping is removing the harsh, wiry, exterior hair of wire hair breeds, such as the Wire Haired Vizsla, Wire Fox Terrier, German Wire Haired Pointer and the Schnauzer.  These breeds have a soft undercoat and a wiry protective exterior coat.  It is the exterior coat that is removed during hand stripping.  This is quite a specialized groom.  If your dog has been clipper cut in the past, this is likely not for you, but if your dog has not, this might be a good option. 

Costs Start at £45 for the first 60 minutes and £25 per hour after.
