In this Tutorial, You will learn:

  • The correct hand-stripping methods to enhance the Miniature Schnauzer’s breed-specific appearance, including the use of stripping stones for precision.
  • Master the art of creating a sloping top line, emphasising the breed’s correct structure with careful stripping and blending techniques.
  • Discover how to work with dogs that may have weaker breed points, like a lack of chest depth or turn of stifle, and create the illusion of stronger features.
  • How to use the right blades to achieve a neat, clean face, ears, and head while preserving the Schnauzer’s iconic expression.
  • The techniques for achieving column-like legs and neat cylindrical feet, using chalking methods to add volume.
  • Understand how to trim the Schnauzer’s underline to highlight depth of chest, without adding unnecessary length to the dog’s profile.
  • How to blend clipped and stripped areas seamlessly to maintain a natural, balanced look.
