How to groom this coat type?
I have a 1 year old wire haired pointer/poodle mix. She’s never been groomed other than brushed and scissor trims around her face. Her coat has some obvious wire hair but also some areas (her head) are abviously more poodle. It started getting hot outside this week and her coat is much thicker than it was last summer. I’m not sure what to do with it. I know you can’t cut wire hair, but she has some poodle hair mixed in there so are the wiry parts not wiry enough to be hand stripped? I have no idea how to groom her, help! I would love to give her a hand strip for the summer, I’m just not sure if areas like her back are wiry enough (have too much poodle mixed in) for hand stripping. Some areas are obviously not suitable for hand stripping so I would just trim it with scissors. I would really appreciate some help!
