Sandy, I don't know much about cording a poodle, but do know you have to wash and let air dry, and do not brush! Cords are controlled mats. If you are lucky,...

Now I know most of you are so sick of repeating yourselves about cording......lol....but i hope someone will just walk me through it as I progress. No need to...
Ok I added 2 pictures of Merlin the poodle in question in your photos section....his leg braclets are shave off now and his body is a bit longer,but bascially...
I would just wash(blot) and air dry at this point. If the ears and top knot are separating on their own, I would not do anything now. I've heard that a poodles...
Hi, I am just a lurker, but was wondering if anyone here has Komondors as LGD? My question would be if you do bother cording them? Breeders I've bought them...
Well Gang I did my first bath without a brush or Blowdryer! Merlin felt liberated..he got the Poodle zoomies all over my house!What cute curls! His top know is...

Sandy, I would not wash that often- remember I have pulik though. Except, for "rear" touch ups every couple of wks, mine only get a full bath every 4 months or...
Don't worry about bathing. Weekly baths are fine (applies to any breed) Don't try to separate cords at this point just let the dog dry curly. You can use the...
Understand that cords are nothing more than controlled mats. An uncorded, unclipped LGD is just a neglected dog. If you are not going to keep them shaved then...
Frizz, I am also on my first Komondor. I try to bath her every week to keep her clean as she runs with my pack of Briards and everyone wants to play with her....
Hi All I am Jane and my girls are Condoleezza 10 months old and Lateefah 4 months old today.They are Black Standard Poodles .I saw my first cord poodle in...
Being a Puli person myself I could not live with a dog only being bathed ever 4th month... even with cleanups periodically.. I bath my dogs every 10th day, and...
Im just wondering id using a dehumidifier would also help the drying process?Anyone try this? Also I did some reading in some old posts here,and I read...
hello all - i have an 8yo granite male puli. rescued him about 18 months ago. he had a poodle cut at the time and with a lot of patience, i've watched him...
i've been advised by a vet to NOT wash so frequently. this tends to dry up the skin and cause scaling and odor. seems everyone has a different experience. ......
Ok,i was debating putting him contenentail before it cords up...oh how weird that will look!But I did it before ..so I guess Ill get used to the lack of body...
im wondering is the owner of Somerset poodles(Charla andTom) a memebr here? I am a fan of her Carlie(AM CH SOMERSET SWEET SUCCESS) ,and would love it if i...
That is an old wives tale. The problems is not frequent bathing but using inappropriate products & for most people inadequate rinsing. Most common skin...
Couldn't have said it better myself, Frizz :o) I also think an easy rinse product, something without a lot of additives, would work better than what the...

Jesper, I would have to wash them more if they played in the backyard often or hiked in the woods (we walk mostly on sidewalks), if I took them to shows as...
Thanks for the reply, however my dog will not let me near her with electric clippers, so one year I sat there with sheep hand shears and cut till they went...

Jeanett, When we bought our current pulik 10 yrs ago, the breeder suggested using human shampoo and creme rinse both diluted in half( with water). I picked...
Lilly, I tried brushing my puli as a pup. It was awful! We both cried. It's a lot of work, It just may take more time for the coat to cord around his neck....
. Anyone have any other ideas? Some dogs just won't cord in some areas no matter what you do & you have to live with that. Most bergamascos don't cord on part...
... my male...very aloof to people. That is baloney!! Working dogs should be expected to behave just as well as any other dog, at least for their owner & the...
