Jacqueline, I am not sure what you want to know. I could go on and on about cording as I love doing it, in fact I am now in the process of cording my other...
Hi Jaqueline....we have Bergamascos and they are still in the matting phase....still manually ripping the flocks and my fingers are sore.......good luck with...
Hello all, My question is directed to anyone who grooms their full coated Bergamasco. We live on a messy farm and I was thinking of trimming the flocks to make...
I posted a picture of my poodle two months into cording. There are spots really going great, but there are also spots that are a bit slow! Greetings Jacqueline...
Go ahead & bather your dog & get the cords separated so that you have a clear idea of the actual length of the coat & everything is laying properly. Then take...
Hi! I am a new member and a new Havanese puppy owner. We are considering cording her, and wondered if anyone can give us advice on when to begin the cording...
I am just guessing but I would bet that an ideal time to start cording would be during the coat change. It can get pretty ugly and they can mat/tangle ...

Thanks for the advice. What a better place to start than with puppy's first mats! LOL...
I'm in the same boat as the OP... and I'm just wondering exactly when I should expect the coat change? 9 months? I'm wondering if i should let it start...

I have to confess after 4 months I did not want the cords anymore. I still love them when they are finished, but I cannot stand the long waiting and the fact...
I think I may be losing the grooming battle with my bergamsco. I know they're suppose to look a scraggly until the flocks are visible, but I am having a hard...
Hi Bonnie, How old is your Bergamasco? When they initially start to grow lots of wooly hair they tend to get matted behind the ears, chest, and abdomen. It is...
Mats are something that you want out of a Collie. Mats are something that you leave in in a corded dog. They are what will eventually be your cord. The...
Yes, do it all with your fingers. You don't want matting behind the ears at this point and it is important to brush the head, face and ears now. The saddle can...
this is big OT for this list but most of us have unusual breeds of cats as well as dogs on this list. Besides that, being the listowner, it's my perogative to...

I know nothing about cording a poodle, and am new to the group. How do I start? Do I separate the matts? Really, I know nothing and don't know what to do? I...
Linda, I have a standard and corded her in a continental. What I did was to bathe her, let her dry (NO hand dryer) in a cage dryer or on her own. Then I...
Linda, That's exactly right. Separate the matts that form. As they grow out, they will form cords. I have a puli, so hers are larger than a poodles. You can...
I still have not found the best way to separate matts! My SWD matts the worst on her hind quarters! KtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtFKtF ...
Greg, Do I recognize you from the Havanese list?? I've been cording my sweet Chachi for about 18 months now. When hair meshes together between the cords I...
