Atlanta Pet Fair
Do you think I would have any chance of placing in Atlanta if I did a clippered Scottie? I had to stop handstripping her beause her owner let her get into black sun flower seeds and her coat was a mass of oil, plus they didn't like her hand stripped. But I really would like to compete again with her.

Opps, I meant to put Entry division. What do you think?Comment

You can place in entry with a clippered terrier IF its done well (NOT a 7F on the back). I have seen it happen that even in A someone with a well clippered scottie placed. It is less lkely the higher you go but in entry I say go for it. I do not know the judge. Not familiar at all.<a href="http://www.groomwise.typepad.com/grooming_smarter" target="_blank">My Blog</a> The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why. –Mark TwainComment

Thanks for the input, that was my feeling. I think I'll give it a go, if her owner will let me borrow her again.Comment

Instead of clippering
use thinning shears for the back. That's what I do for schnauzers when I compete (entry level). I don't do that for their regular pet trim, but gives a really nice finish for competition.

My mom placed with a clipped Scotty Entry division a few years back so it is possible. She said she used a 5f and thinners. Good luck
