Border terrier clip from start to finish 

Amazing! Glad it helped, I usually use a 30blade with a 2 or a 3 guide attachment xx

@@laurenemcotton You're so good and gentle with that little dog, well done you. Thanks again.

Thankyou so much for showing that.great job.

​@laurenemcotton hi Lauren I know you used a 30 blade and a 2 combed whats a 3?? Thx Lisa

In reply to first comment, their cosat changes over time and very often becomes difficult and painful to hand strip. So the only options are trimming or using a pair of thinning scissors

@@RohanTheBT that’s great thanks I’m getting border soon and don’t like the look of that procedure looks very uncomfortable

@@chrissyplanteater2892 if you need any advice let us know, I’ve had 5 borders.

Had borders for year . Had show dogs . Clipped once with clippers the coat will never be same

@@danking8379 It is important to note that the effects of clipping a Border Terrier's coat will not be permanent, and the coat will eventually grow back to its original length and texture. Regular grooming and maintenance will be required to maintain the coat's appearance and condition.

30 blade with a 2 guide

Reggie from Strays.

Big mistake clipping . Fur will never be the same

Thats one Border ruined for a bit! Spoils the look entirely. Ruins the coat.

Ideally borders should be hand stripped yes, but there are reasons to clip a border, stop being so negative it’s not necessary.

Rubbish. Hand stripped if showing a dog yes, you totally can clip a pet Border Terrier, it does not ruin their coat. Absolute rubbish. Why are people so narrow minded?

@@helengarner8826 Agree, we could never find a dog parlour that stripped our Borders. In the end it was a necessity to have them cut. If you don't show them why does it matter, and the dog does not have an opinion anyway.

I usually use a 30 blade with a 2 guide or a 3 guide 😊

@@laurenemcotton Thank you very much!!!

Thank you! 😊

You don't strip Borders by clipping. Ruins the coat, loses natural water proofing and goes curly. Pluck the hair out in marigold gloves and add a little plain talc. A few treats. Scissor round the delicate areas. @@laurenemcotton

No it's not !

@@MargaretKressinger You are the type of person who if applied for one of my puppies would fall at the 1st hurdle on the puppy enquiry form. States no clipping only hand stripping do you understand? If not move on. Poor dog in your house hold

@@MargaretKressinger Yes it is!

Exactly

No you do not . Only if you want to show them. My Border has a thin undercoat and can't be stripped . My previous Border used to get very irritated skin when hand stripped and my Vet who had a Border told me it's unnecessary. Every Dog is different .

What does Jesus have to do with it?

Mine was so traumatised after being hand stripped! And he is has long curly coat .. in summer he pants terribly.. he needs clipping .. which would you prefer .. a excessively hot dog or a clipped one?

Thank you for expressing your concerns about my decision to clip this Border Terrier's coat. I understand that not everyone may agree with this decision, and I respect your opinion. However, The owner made the decision to clip this Border Terrier's coat for a few reasons. It is important to note that the effects of clipping a Border Terrier's coat will not be permanent, and the coat will eventually grow back to its original length and texture. I understand that some people believe that a Border Terrier's coat should be left unclipped to maintain the breed's characteristic appearance. However, I believe that as long as my Border Terrier is healthy and well-cared for, the length of their coat is a personal choice. I appreciate your concern and am happy to listen to any further concerns you may have if you can learn to be respectful

If the owner wants clippers then they shouldn't be the damn owner,,,,, hand strip ONLY for borders, live in the house live in the shed, watever, borders are hard as nails, hand strip or don't touch them, no nonsense

You need too know ur breeds and tell owners the score

​@@laurenemcotton it's amazing how many people over react here. Nice job on the clip. I personally hand strip my BT, but there'll be a day when I won't want to put my dog through it. Cheers!

@@ragnarl9130 so much aggression! As an owner who clips her border terrier I do it due to him being traumatised from hand stripping and he gets excessively hot in summer which would be far more cruel to keep his coat thick and long.. not everyone has to fit into a view point - this dog looks lovely, I miss my dogs long coat as it is his character but looks over cruelty?

That clipping is all wrong too.
