Whisker trim

[vstripe]

I was wondering if any of you trim your B's whiskers.

I do not on the muzzle… I do trim up the side ones and the three little ones on the chin.... other then that... I leave them one. In Basenjis... I would say other then handlers, most people leave them on...

Ditto! Ironically, I am reading this discussion as I am prepping Blondie for a show tomorrow She is pretty whiskery, and it may take a while to trim her up….ugh...

I do mine the same way.

Triming of tail hairs, that's about it, everything else is left as is.
