Hand Stripping

This is a specialist technique which is generally used on certain coat types such as wire haired breeds like Border Terriers, Wire Haired Dachshund etc. 

The technique involves stripping the dead hair out by hand and can be time consuming – please contact us for further information.

We do not generally offer a bath at the same time as hand stripping, this can be offered in the following weeks after the groom.

  • I took my very nervous dog to get her coat stripped. She is so scared that I usually do this myself however, I was unable to this time because I'm 9 months pregnant. Jody was absolutely brilliant with her and managed to clip her nails too ( a part that can be very tricky, as she doesn't like her feet touched). She came out smelling lovely and looking brilliant. I can not recommend them enough. My dog was terrified and they did a brilliant job and put her at ease. I am so pleased with the result. Thank you!!

  • Very impressed by Jody's professionalism and care. She hand-stripped our Basset Fauve de Bretagne (not a breed you see often) with great patience. He came home happy as larry. Recommended
