Hiya... after the show today, everyone i met thought i should strip Luckey's puppy coat, and topknot, (coz cockers supposed to look "bald") so i thought i'd give it a try today and she looks so bald!!!
regretting it alot coz i think she looked better in her puppy coat, fringe and all... how long do you think it takes for cocker hair to grow back, esp the fringe on the forehead?
I don't think luckey liked her new haircut... so she promptly peed on the bed after the grooming sesh... yikes..

Hi Jenn,
Wah so fast you groomed Luckey already ah?
Personally I find the fringe on the forehead cool..after seeing Luckey's mom (Juno?). With the center parting and long flowing locks remind me of those rock band guitar players .
Back to your question, how long it takes to grow back really depends on your dog. How long was it before you snipped it off? Generally using mini schnauzers as a guide line, the hair would grow out to 2-3inches within 6-10weeks.

dear jeff, it's will take about 3-4 months for the hair to grow back for my cocker. as for me i cut my cocker hair after that i will take attention about thier coat condition by feeding them will suitable amount of omega oil to improve thier glossy coat. sohchongmeng.spaces.live.com/

when you take off the hari off the top of your cocker's forehead, do you hand strip the topknot off, or do you use clippers? I heard if you use clippers on eng cockers you don't get the "natural" look and also they look really really botak to begin with.
but now i'm a bit stuck, coz i don't want to hurt luckey by plucking her ear hair off coz i think that's more sensitive than the forhead, but because the top of her ears are also covered with fluff, she looks like she's wearing two pony tails ratehr than ears!
