I was talking to my hairdresser about dredlocks and corded dogs, etc. and she made it clear that she personally hates the look and thinks it dirty... but that...
Okay ,i guess I can address this having been a hairdresser and having had a corded dog for 5 years. First hair like our nails is a dead appenage of the skin,...
I agree with Jewel on this although I am not a hairdresser. I believe your hairdresser is expressing an opinion based on her dislike of dreads/cords. When...
Pamela , THats what Jewel is a havanese, and he is considered creme and apricot, I have to say I miss his cords,but I was anal about keeping him immaculate ...
Now that I think about it, a male in cords would be different as well. Although if it is a male poodle & continental cut might not be as problematic. In...
Pamela, I have three female pulik. two do not need to have their back legs tied. The third one, does not squat low enough, so she has her legs tied up in felt...
I have a male swd with cords (not too long though) and I agree that it is hard to keep certain areas (legs, belly) clean without rigouresly cutting the cords...
... etc. ... matting ... anyway!)... ... quality, ... I am wondering if your hairdresser is referring to the HUMAN version of cords/dreadlocks in her dislike...
With deep sadness I am sharing the passing of my almost 14 year old Standard Poodle, RaiNee. Her 14th birthday would have been in Jan 2005. Sadly she did not...
Dear Pamela, Our thoughts and prayers go out to you. After speaking with you last night before you left for the vets my thought have been with you. I know...
So sorry to hear about RaiNee's death. I can just tell how much she was loved by what you wrote. I still think about our first Puli and how special she was. I...
Pamela, Condolences on the loss of your beloved RaiNee. Know that others are thinking of you...and I'm sure that my Greyhound, Achilles, was also one of those...
Thank you Fritz and Carole & other members of the list who sent their condolences. I do have a Briard and 3 chinese cresteds still at home. Trying to...

I am new. Hello! I have been reading your answers on how you bathe your dogs. I too use many of the same methods on my Lhasas. I do not currently own a...
... LOL! Geez, makes ya wonder, don't it? haha! Never corded a dog myself (but want to someday - I think ;-) but here's some of what I've learned here......
Lisa, I have 3 corded pulik. The first two had cords develop naturally on thier tails, heads and legs. Their bodies matted and had to be separated. The third...

Well, I don't have a corded dog yet. I have two Lhasas but have always loved the corded dogs. I am trying to find out how much work it is first. :) I'm...
I think that referring to "cording" a dog is probably a misnomer. Certain breeds have the kind of coat texture that will grow in cords, if encouraged and cared...
