Hand Stripping guide

Hand Stripping: what it is, which dogs it suits and how often

The back may be ready for grooming while the head or flanks still need time. That is why Hand Stripping cannot be planned by the calendar alone. In brief: it removes outer coat that is mature enough to release readily; coat texture, grooming history and the dog’s response to work on each area determine the technique and timing.

Two dogs of the same breed can look quite different after different grooming programmes, without either outline being inherently right or wrong. The practical difference lies in the process, goal and upkeep. In brief: clippers shorten hair above the skin, while Hand Stripping selects and removes mature outer coat; the sensible choice depends on today’s coat, grooming history and what the dog can comfortably manage.
