Hairy Border!!

[buckybee]

does anyone else have a stupidly hairy border terrier?? Her hair just grows and grows!! She gets really upset when we strip her and we can't even do it most of the time because it won't come out. If we clip her will she get even hairier???

my borders are ok but we strip them and they love it we got this comb that takes out the hair!
iknow someone that clips theres but im not sure if he gets even hairier though!

Will it come out all the time or just certain times of the year? Where did you get your comb from?

got comb from local pet shop!
not sure when the hair comes out usually in the spring and just around now i think!

we used to send our borders to the dog groomers as they hated us striping them, but were fine with the groomer. Costs around £15 each a time and they were done every 3 months, bit less in the winter tho.

Our current dog goes to the groomers too, and hes a total wimp at home but fine there!
