Grooming a show type cocker

[Coughandcath]

Hi , new to the forum so please accept my apologies if this subject has been previously posted . I am looking to get my Cocker clipped but have been looking for pictures that I can show my groomer ...a bit like the haircut picture books you get in some hairdressers ...

Welcome! There's good examples if you google "grooming english cocker spaniel."

My English Cocker only gets her ears, face, neck and butt clipped (her stomach in the summer time). We use a Mars Coat King for the torso and back of the neck. Scissors and thinning shears for the legs and feet. She also uses thinning shears for the top of the head. Her breeder would probably faint if she saw how short we keep her coat but we are outside in the warm weather doing stuff and it isn't practical to have the long silky coat which picks up all manner of debris.
