Hey, I'm one too!! Professional Pet Stylist that is :) Where are you located???????? I'm in the foothills region of South Carolina, USA, near a town called...
Hi Tara I have corded pulik, but I would definitely not cut, or worry about it being even. It takes so long to grow, and you can always trim later. Since you...
Tara, I just started cording 2 Standard Poodles. Both are in the frizzy, unkempt looking stage. I will let you know how it goes :-) Lisa Sanders Wonderbunny...
Glad to see people are still here. ;-) Thanks for the help. You know, I actually had an idea for using a corded poodle in creative grooming! But I'll...
I have a matted -up Havanese, now ready to begin pulling these apart and cording. First I need to ask if I can trim sections already corded, but looking lumpy...
... certainly! ... you cannot grab 1/2" of hair & try to cord it. 3" is pretty short too. Of course you can not be brushing when dogs are this short but it is...
Thanks Frizz! :-) ... too. Of course you can not be brushing when dogs are this short but it is difficult to guide their hair when you have nothing to hang on ...
What do you do to keep a corded coat smelling acceptable? Will poodle cords absorb smells, or is it mostly about mildew? Also, I heard of a product called...
Tara My fully corded pulik only got smelly once- when I took her out often in rain during a very humid summer- probably from mildew. The key is to keep them...
I read with interest your post on the mildew in the coat. I just inherited a 15 month old Komondor that had a moldy coat. I used a good oatmeal shampoo...
E-Z Groom claims that their whitening shampoo will remove stains, if heated and used full strength. I haven't tried it yet though. Just one idea for you. ...
Tara- I have not forgotten about the info on the body /rain suits. Just trying to get all the it all together. Carole Mazik Puli Pittsburgh, PA (USA) ... From:...
I've heard people talk about how their Poodle's coat would be perfect for cording. How can you tell? Is it the coats that are chronically matting, or the...

Hi Gail- My fully corded(to the ground ) puli just finished her second agility title. She occasionally knocks down a bar, but we raise the bar to 20" in...
Hi Tara, Debbie- Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I did the research quite a while ago, and wanted to make sure the info was still correct. Here is...
Had to share this great pic...I'm sure they're not trimmed Komondors, but they sort of LOOK like trimmed Koms. Of course, while I'd love to get Goulash into...
Generally speaking, the curlier the coat, the easier it cords. Those dogs with the thick, tightly packed curls cord wonderfully. The ones with a silkier coat...
... yes they are! this is a problem for senior dogs ( especially the larger breeds), dogs with injuries & wet dogs . It can also be a problem when determining...
and to think i sometimes complain that my own pony tail is too heavy and gives me a headache!;-) i guess most dogs get used to the weight huh? very interesting...
HI - The 800 number for Pedigree Perfection is: 1-888-464-4672. But, I was not able to find it on the websites they told me about- Petsmart, and I couldn't get...
Thank you Carole. I did see some nylon suits that I liked. Appreciate the help. Tara ... the research quite a while ago, and wanted to make sure the info was ...
Hi, I am very new to this. i have been working on cording my poodle (standard) for the last couple of months. I have noticed while some cords are forming nice...
