Show dogs are handstripped; pets are clippered. You think every poodle owner keeps their dog in a lion cut? Or every owner of a maltese doesn't trim a hair on their dog until it reaches the floor? Calm down; this video is obviously for pet owners; a show dog handler doesn't need YouTube to tell them how to do their job.

there is absolutely nothing wrong with clipping the coats on schnauzers. Sure it softens the hair but not everyone that owns a schnauzer can afford to have them handstripped! Most of them are pets, not show dogs! Geez, chill out.

That is perfectly fine then, I do not mind it either, although I think they are adorable with natural floppy ears :).

I just do not think anyone should HAVE to hand strip their schnauzer. It is all personal preference. :)

People care about the dog's fur way too much, I agree, but dog owners get the pooch's haircut because they love them, because schnauzer's fur does get long, which makes them hot during the summer. If you care about your dog's health and happiness you would get it's hair cut so he doesn't die of heat stroke. And while you're at it, you may as well make him look handsome......why not???

is anyone going to even acknowledge the grooming video. i myself is a groomer and the line was way off. and the elbow to chest is wrong that line is supposed to be at an angle not straight. i have noticed this a lot in these videos. i watch them for different outlooks and i never know i might learn something new. but so far all these cuts are wrong.

As far as I'm concerned a dog is a living creature that should be loved and treated with respect, who really cares how it's hair is cut as long as it's happy and healthy. I clip my schnauzers and give it a Schnauzer look. I can't believe how anal most of the people are who are writing in complaining about how the person cut the coat. If they don't show the dog ... who cares! Just love it and enjoy it.

Why would you want to crop a dog's ears, its a cruel and senseless thing to do to an animal. The same with tail docking. There is nothing better than seeing your dog's tail wagging with happiness when they play with other dogs or you. I think there's something wrong with people who see these mutilations as something that enhances their dog in some way.

@jbonkerz I like there tails docked and their ears cropped

@GrauesZimmer

However, if you want a real schnauzer look, then when the dog is a puppy do not have the ears clipped, and do not have the tail docked. When the dog gets older, do not hand strip nor shave the dog, and voila that is what the dog is supposed to look like, the way nature intended. Everything else is what we as humans prefer to have them look like.

True they do need their fur in the winter, and like I said I do not shave my dog, he is hand groomed.

@GrauesZimmer and besides that, I hate how show dogs loose so much of their fur anyway. Let them be!
