Dogsfevr Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Is the dog going to be shown or are you just wanting to retain the normal coat ?? Groomers will do it providing owners are prepared to do maintenance work in between ,they will often charge more & you will need to attend more regular . If your dog has a good coat it is very easy to do it yourself & just roll the coat . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to say thank you showdog for the 'heads up' regarding Pantene shampoo & conditoner. Does a fabulous job on both my BC's. Very happy with the results :) much kinder on my tight budget too. Thanks again. Back to the thread guys thanks. Edited July 21, 2014 by BC Crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denali Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Sorry, I don't know of anyone who does. The past 3 salons i have worked at don't offer this service. Are you in contact with his breeder? They may be happy to show you how to do it :) If you did it yourself you would probably save a lot of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know that guys Be the first & last bottle I buy then. I'm disgusted. Sorry back on topic again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westiemum Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Apologies OP but yep I agree about P & G - but at the same time it's hard to find a company that hasn't sold out chasing the lucrative Chinese markets. Even Jurlique and Clarins who were so anti- animal testing have sold out. If you really want something cruelty free, then Lush is probably your best bet and probably has something suitable for dogs.

Missymoo Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I just did an Irish terrier on Sunday, shame you rant in Vic :) Perhaps try a breeder of hand stripped dogs..thats all I am and I do it because I enjoy doing it :) (and charge a fraction of what a salon would too..as I have all day to get 1 dog done, no time slots to fit into ;) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boronia Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I know that Ron Turle (has Barbaron Westies at Munruben) works at a groomers near Logan or Carindale (I think) Here are his DOL Breeders contact details http://www.dogzonline.com.au/breeds/breeders/west-highland-white-terrier.asp?state=QLD&Submit=Go and web page http://barbaronwesties.com/ it may be worth while to email him and ask Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
