handstripped a sweet standard schnauzer named ruby today :)

about 2.5hrs stripping, 30mins dematting, & 1hr prep (bath + dry + nails). her throat, back of thighs, & ears are clippered; she's not showing or upkept at home so a strip n' clip is easiest for her. i love her! she was very patient, especially for her first time ever being fully stripped!

a year gone by

Many of you will know that for the last year or so, I have had very little, if any, fandom contact. I guess I should explain a little bit about what has been going down and what has kept me away.

My account would not let me in: And i am stubborn. So i stopped trying to get in. At the time i felt like the fandom was moving apart and I didn't want top to be apart of the he said she said that came along with it. I have seen a good number of new fandom members emerging, who are kind and loving and thoughtful on the Discord, and have made me want to come back.

Wilf: I got a second dog without realising the consequences of doing so and the impact it would have on my family. Wilf has his share of problems. He is my little ball of anxiety and I have been working through the many issues he has with him, but we are far from there yet. He is nearly 2 now <3

My health is in the tank: I have had several flare ups of my Fibromyalgia in the last few years, and many of them have made it difficult to sit still long enough. As you can imagine, this takes its toll on one's mental health. Yay having an illness that is worsened by inactivity. My nature is a little self destructive and i throw myself into work in order to forget about the pain, and that has led to severe fatigue, which in turn, is not conducive to writing or arting. I am sorry. Also, in April i had a work related accident where i thought i had just sprained my ankle, but as it turns out, i have detatched not one, but two ligaments, so am awaiting the outcome of will i/won't i need an operation? My appointment is in Dec.

I took up a hobby!: For nearly FOUR years I have been on the waiting list, trying to get into a dog sport called Flyball. FINALLY, my local team got back to us and Killian is running through their first course, and will hopefully be offered a place on the team! I have found a group of real human beings who 'get me' and so far, i am loving it!

I got a promotion at work: I am the boss now. for reals. i still cannot believe anyone would put me in charge of a team of people, but here we are. This eats up more of my time but also allows me to have a decent schedule - so should allow for more me time!

I went back to school: Obviously, not content with enough in my life, I enrolled on an Advanced Canine Behaviour Diploma course, for which i have a year to complete. I'm sure i can fit it in...somewhere. Collecting all the letters after my name, innit.

I work two jobs: 48 hrs a week in one job just wasn't enough, clearly. I am currently training with the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT) and hope to become a fully accepted member at the satrt of next year. Their values align with everything i do in dog training, and although I currently offer 1-2-1's, classes, and such, I really want accolades that tell people I am the best. I currently work as a dog trainer Fridays, with the odd handstripping and groom thrown in between jobs.

My husband and I are working through some things: We are not actually married but it is easier to tell people we are rather than explain why we are not. We have had a very up-and-down few years, mainly because of miscommunication, but we are working through it because we are each other's soul mates. I would never want anyone else in my corner. maybe @hollyethecurious, but she's just there to hide the bodies. As such, we are making time for each other more, so I'll likely just be around in the evenings or weekends.

Plum is done!! Plum Pudding is another custom I've been meaning to do for years now so it's nice to have him finally complete!

Plum has an interesting history; he's first depicted as a boy in the early specials/books/merch but later on she's a girl. The two dolls they made of Plum were both girls (Party Pleaser and Berrykin) but there was a European release of the boy version in 2019. I considered getting that one but with shipping it was pricey as I'm in the US, plus I really hated how they did his outfit.

I got the head and body off Aliexpress and snagged the shoes and striped tights off of FB and made the rest, including handstriping his pants. He needs a much bigger bow but that will have to wait until I go off island again; I'm hoping to find a wider dotted one as I like how this looks:)

His hat shape was hard for me to duplicate but I like it. Most of the dolls have flat versions of their fruit on their hat but I went 3-D like the art.

I even made him a wee little pencil:) I also repainted his freckles as they were a bright red and it looked like he had the pox lol. Now they're a medium purple.

I'm so happy with how Plum came out and it's given me the confidence boost to work on others that have been on the To do list a while:)

Before and After Irish Terrier handstrip

#dogblr #irish terrier #dog groomer #dog grooming #hand stripping

[doberbutts]

Is stripping not a lengthy process then? I got discouraged from owning giant schnauzers because some sources said it could take hours (I’m aware that they’re a bigger dog so smaller dog takes less time but even still). As a side note, how early can one hand strip?And do you have any recs on where to learn how to hand strip a terrier?(books, sites etc)Eventually I do want to go get practice from a breeder but in the meantime I’d like to read up on it possibly(adhd doesnt click well with vids).

On a 10lb dog Evander's full strip took just over an hour. So a giant schnauzer whose coat hasn't been kept up (they call it "rolling" the coat) I could absolutely see taking hours. This is the advantage of NOT letting the dog get super fuzzy like those before photos, because now in a rolled coat Evander takes maybe 10-15 minutes to pick over and keep nice.

Evander is the first dog I've stripped so I don't have a lot of answers. I would assume it'd be safe to start stripping when the puppy goes through the first coat change, though I personally would get the pup used to grooming prior to that. I just went on youtube and looked up handstripping tutorials.

Just spent 5 hours stripping Atticus, for the first time. Not sure how I am typing this as I have no thumbs anymore. I could have used my stripping knife but I find it much more natural to use my hands for most of it.

He’s not entirely done - bum and half his tail plus tidying/blending left. Hopefully next time I can start doing some finer flat work around his neck.

He was a very good boy and we will both probably fall asleep for a bit now.
