Whiskers

|
| Cut them off. It's not like a cat where they use them for distance. You will notice that they seem to grow faster than the rest of the hair. |
| I try to go right down to the very bottom of the whiskers to snip them off. |
| Okee dokee. Thanks! |
| Is docking whiskers OK? |
lol.  |
| Actually, when I used to show malamutes, there were a few breeders who thought it was extremely cruel to cut the whiskers, and refused to cut them off even though they should be in the ring. |
| I find it near impossible to avoid cutting them while trimming the face. I attempted to do this once when trimming my maltese, and it was quite a task! |

Yes, and they're not the only working/sporting dog breeders who feel that way. I've never noticed any functional difference in an OES - trimmed or not. Now eyelashes I've been known to work around...a little. And, yeah, it looks as stupid as it sounds...  But Liz does so love batting hers.
