- How to handstrip a Border Terrier at home.
Watch as Julie Lalou handstrips a pet Border Terrier.
A Border Terrier has a clean all-over strip meaning that the whole dog is stripped right back. For the show ring, these dogs should have a rolled coat, however that would involve stripping sections of the coat weekly which is unrealistic for pet dogs. Therefore we wait until the dog has a blown coat and strip it right back to undercoat two to four times a year. Featured below, the lovely Alfie is owned by Dog World boss Stuart Baillie.

This is SO HELPFUL! We thought we were hand stripping our Border Terrier correctly, when all we were doing was partially stripping her. You are gentle and a fabulous teacher. Thank you, Julie!
Good job, lady. Very professional. You said he was no the finest specimen at the beginning but I think he proved you wrong. Outstanding dog!
I have realized he is able to sire!
I’ve never stripped a Border before and studied this video before he arrived and had it playing while I was doing it. Fantastic easy to follow video. The Border was fantastic and looked as good as yours did! The owner gave me a 30.00 tip! So thank you 🙏
18:58 My son, who lives with us, brought a border terrier puppy home from the shelter. I had never heard of the breed before and only learned he was a border terrier from Google lens. I must say he is a perfect dog, so far. He’s four months old now. He is so friendly and happy and smart and one of the cutest puppies I have ever seen! Thank you so much for sharing this video so we can know how to take care of him in the future! ❤
Alfie is a fine specimen
Brilliant video. My Bertie (rip) used to lay on his sides while I stripped them, he would fall asleep. Such a great dog loved him very much.
The pertinent closeups with the type and use of the tools are SO great. Thank you!
This was fantastic. I wish you lived near me. I would take my Border to you every 6 months! I am going to try this myself - wish me luck!
How did it go?
Being fair to the animal, a very important point. Thanks for the informative video! 😺
Thank you so much for this video! We just adopted a dog in July. She looks like a border terrier, but her ears stick up...so...some kind of mix. I stumbled upon this video and I saw what you described...the sticking up, now loose hair. So today I gently tried hand stripping, to see if her mix would allow this. She LOVED it. She looks more beautiful and clean. Thank you. Thank you. I can now, more completely, care for my new sweet Pearl's coat. I am so glad to have learned from this video. 💝
im just distracted by you saying he isn't the finest specimen at the beginning.... he is beyond the finest thank you very much!
Yeah all dogs all finest specimens, I’m pretty sure she regretted hace said that.
Border Terriers are like that. they have the patience of Saints. You cannot provoke them. They have incredible prey drive, but they are the most tolerant of people and other dogs. RIP Roger, my Border Terrier. He was a Saint.
Just got a puppy, your words gave me encouragement, had a yorkie b4 but this BT is my 1st.
very true. I love my border terrier. He's so good with other dogs, never ever starts any trouble.
Big hug to this lovely dog, and many kisses.
Great video, very informative! As a new groomer starting out, this helps so much! Thank you 🐾
Wee Alfie! Can't imagine our wee Fergus being quite so compliant.
Thanks for all the useful tips. My BT is 9 years old and mirrors the good fellow in your clip.
Poor Alfie. He's proper sick of it but still being a good boy. I always allow lots of breaks for a rest.
An extremely good no nonsense video, Thank you.
Amazed how well behaved dog is . My Lakeland terrier is pretty much the same except when working on the fronts of her lower legs , she's very sensitive there .
This video is sooo relaxing to watch!
Excellent demo! I wondered what hand stripping was all about, now I know. I have a border terrier /chihuahua mix.
This dog looked so good after the plucking, wow!
It was a delight watching how well you handled him. I got very upset when I watched (My Favorite Groomer) she is very rough and insensitive to the dogs needs, she also ends up taking all the dogs coat off which you can tell she has absolutely no patience or care for them. I refuse to watch her videos as I found myself very sad, annoyed and angry all together. So when I just started watching this video I can see the love she puts into the dogs, I felt so happy and comforted after watching it. Thank you for that. Please keep putting your videos out there for everyone to learn about their or other dog breed specifications. I groom my dogs at home and I try to learn as much as I possibly can about their breeds (American Eskimo dog & Yorkshire Terrier). Thank you 😊
My BT hates the stripping, but I LOVE the look after it's done! I have gotten to the point where I do 75% of the stripping and my breeder/groomer finishes it up. Lucy's outer coat is SO thick...it gets pretty tricky. Thanks for a great video!
Thank you so much ! I live in France and the breed is slowly getting known but the groomers in my rural area don’t know it so i am afraid they use scissors . I did it and the many advice, especially for the head and the tail were really helpful. Did it within 3hours exclusively by hand stripping. Took longer on the paws and the head ( being careful and trying to stretch the skin )❤
Это моя любимая порода!!!! Обожаю бордер-терьеров)))) очень славные собачки)))
Excellent tutorial, thank you! Alfie is gorgeous, and similar to my boy Ollie. No way would Ollie let me handle his tail so freely however.
Great video, you explain everything perfectly 😊 and what a perfect hand strip
What a lovely boy, and a great, clear video. Thank you!
Can you list the brand and type of each tool you use on him?
He looks like he is enjoying his back getting plucked quite a bit 😁
This is a great video with a great groomer. I learned a lot.
Really great video to show how hand stripping is done. Thanks!
i was so nervous about hurting my dog because it still felt wirey but i didnt know when it was too much, b ut she is much happier now lol. shes about 10 so its mostly clippers now because her hair is so soft.
What a gorgeous boy. Just like my border girl, Sara. Best dog in the world.
Oh gosh, this is an intimidating process, you look like a magician
Thank you good clean instructions for family pet needing a healthy animal
disassembled #40 clipper blade for carding these coat types. A commercial carding tool,
such as a Shed Ender or FURminator, is also acceptable.
Such a handsome boy
Great job he looks fab!
Alfie’s quite enjoying that.
This was a great educational video. I am trying to learn to handstrip as I've been a groomer 2 years and haven't learnt yet. It would have been great if you talked through the legs and feet aswell
Thank you for the education.
Wow, beautiful! Thanks so much for this video!
Please advise number hours it took to groom Alfie? I know video was about 20 minutes. Editing…. Thank you for this video!
Great video but BT shouldn't be bathed and you should hold the skin the whole time or it will hurt them
At what age should you begin hand stripping?
this was very helpful thankyou
Looks great
I watched this video at the beginning of lockdown and went on to hand strip my border terrier blue & tan Gizmo. He looked amazing when I'd finished as he seemed fine with it as I did it over a few days so as not to wear out his patience. I have been trying to do the strip again as his coat is really wiry and thick again and have got down as far as his shoulders. Now he is just snapping at me the moment I get near him to pull the hair. it is so hot and I don't want him to be uncomfortable so I've only attempted in the shade and when he is cool at the beginning or end of the day after a bit of exercise. He is now basically half done with a small head and front end!! What to do??
Try with lots and lots of treats so they don’t snap at you so much, good luck 🤗
I wonder why he snap at you. Is he hurt or uncomfortable? Make sure you do handstripping correctly. Wish you two the best✌Keep on.
Excellent job!
Awwww little dog done excellent at getting stripped! XXXXXXXX
Hi, Great work.
I have a question regarding a border terrier coat, please. His outer coat looks ready for stripping each time, but he hardly has any undercoat when finished. Would you abandon hand stripping in this kind of scenario? Thank you.
Great job!
Handstripping is just using hands right??
Great teaching thanks. That dog was a very patiente one. How would you do it with a Belgian shepherd, if may I ask?
I had a breed I could clip and he wasnt this nice to groom at all. A little pull and he wanted out, he was realy sensetive and smal. The head was SO facinating in this video and the butt to, lol.
That was someting I often had problems with my dog and I got a machine and scissors. But I want to try this, it seems so cool and 2-4 times a year?
Wow I had to do mine 6 times a year to have the same dog, if I ever waited 3 months I had alot to take care off with a messy coat.
I guess thats the differens of high maintenance and low maintenance dogs, lol.
Hi I have a question:
I brought my neutered mixed breed terrier to the groomer two days ago.
Today I brushed him and a looooot of coat came out.
Does it mean, that the groomer did not make a great job? Is this normal?
In the pix of the carding knife, it appears curved...is that right? I only see straight/flat knives in the US. thx!!
Can you use am undercoat rake?
I have a Furminator, it's Funktion verry good!!!
Wishout pain!!!!
Furminator is basically a knife on a stack. Ruins coat texture.
I have a 12 year old border the top half being stripped he doesn't mind ,but underneath ...he starts to show his teeth
Does this really not hurt the dog at all? This one doesn't look too happy?
If he was unhappy he'd be giving warnings like growling, showing teeth, trying to nip. He's leaning into it a lot of the time which is not a sign of discomfort.
He’s not displaying any signs of stress I suggest you study up dog body language a bit more.
beautiful
I have a border and. He got rashes and it hurt him so we clip him which is much less painful
It sounds like you weren't pulling dead but live hairs. Dead hairs shouldn't cause a reaction like that.
I’d be giving them kisses when doing the face
Where did you get your jacket? I love it!
Yeah they turn into dust bunnies if you dont groom them.
Hanna W that’s true tho
Was ist mit Bauch und Intimbereich? Wird dort auch getrimmt? Oder geschnitten?
How long did this take?
Enough to build another dog!
My border is now one year old (and neutered) ,I would like to know at what time of the year should I get him stripped ? I tried to do a test-strip but not much came out when I pulled. He looks alot like the dog on the vid so I assume he will need this soon ??
do it during shedding season
“He’s not the finest specimen” such a British thing to say 😆
brilliant, thanks for that, big help.
What is the powder you used? I can’t find any.
I believe it is basically talkum powder. It absorbs any fat and oil in the hair and makes it easier to grip. Don't put on to much and don't rub it into the undercoat or it may irritate the dog's skin.
He is very well behaved. Our border terrier sets the nashers on you if you go anywhere near her face, legs, tail, belly etc so she is impossible to do with the scissors. Plus she has a greasy back and constantly needs washing every two to three weeks :(
wow he is beautiful how long does it take to make a dog like that?
It all depends on the dog / coat / breed and the groomer, for that size dog with an experienced groomer I suspect between 1,5 and 2 hours. (that's at least the time my groomer needs for it)
How long does the whole process usually take?
It depends on how long it has been between strips.
Hours

I have a Cairn I would like to do this with but I think I will be bitten.
Doesn’t that hurt the dog?
“...for the areas that are slightly harder to pull out” means the hair is not just falling out and you’re including healthy hair in the pull = yes it’s painful - dogs can’t talk. Get over yourselves. It’s pulling out hair. “only a little discomfort ...” “only twice a year.” “very patient dog ” Tell yourselves all of these things to justify it. Frankly I try to lessen my dog’s unnecessary discomfort as much as possible in their short life.
Carmel Declared I did wonder why they said it doesn’t hurt the dog - it looked painful poor little thing 🙁
I guess it can be painful like a rough massage can be painful. Many dogs really enjoy being stripped. The old coat is itchy and gets too hot in the summer, so most dogs seem to be happy to be rid of it, even if they don't love the process.
Obviously, if your dog is screaming in pain, something is wrong. Be gentle and observant and your dog will be fine.
Only dogs with this kind of coat can be stripped this way, in case you missed that part.
It very uncomfortable for them to live in a coat of full of dead hair and beneficial for skin health as well. I am not a professional groomer but have groomed my Borders for years. They are only on table for brief periods and for first year only gentle brushing, then I gradually add pulling the dead coat but keep brushing in between and it feels wonderful to them. My Border begs to get on the table. I stretch it out over a few days moving around to different areas, then brush with a boar bristle brush and give lots of rubs and scratches. Pulling dead hair and trimming the sensitive areas like rear end, ears or clipping the older Border’s coat or one that finds pulling uncomfortable is humane and caring.
ASMR af
so good!
Nah then can I use this same method on my rough haired patterdale terrier cheers
Yes, any terrier coat. :)
Thank you excellent video with great advice!
What? How...?? WHAT??? This is the first time I see this. What?! There was a new dog underneath 😱 wtf how is this possible?!
I have a pet boarder terrier
can you tell me where to get the stripping powder
Cherie Roseberry anything really that says terrier chalk. Cherrybrook has quite a few options. You can use ear powder too
I use ordinary chalk that I grind to a powder. Cheap but very effective.

Its okay. Alfie probably thinks that she's the same quality specimen.
Hi £200 a strip.... BT's are hardy, I use nawt but a blown coat & my fingers..... ya talking bubble bath doll 🤣🤣🤣🤣
horrible! And no they are not patient. And using an antibiotic shampoo after... You hurt his skun
How is caring for a dog's coat horrible?
I don’t like this technique at all.
highly uncomfortable and painful
The dog doesn't feel pain, the hair that's being pulled is dead.
@@kpina9178 not all of them
@@andressacarolino1344
Are you suggesting they pull out random pieces of the coat? Because that's not how it works.
Hand stripped breeds can experience skin difficulties with too many hairs present on a single follicle. The dog is not screaming nor shying away.
@@kpina9178 obviously there will always be a healthy hair being pulled.
Wonder how much she charges?
I wouldn't trust this amateur with my Borders! Bet she'd muzzle that dog if no one was looking.I do mine myself, save a fortune and my dogs get pee breaks.
cookupastorm its 50 quid for ours
Good video! I'm about to give it a go for the first time. They are such a sweet dog arent they! I couldn't possibly love my Ted any more. Hes clever, caring , and funny and alsorts of other great things. Some of the clever things he has done have been so far past what I would think normal for a dog. So far... I hold his back paw sometimes as he sleeps near me in my bed. He got to know I liked that and if I'm asleep, hell still lick my hand to let me know hes there and then get comfy close enough that his paws are touching my hand. I've never trained him to do that. He does it ecause he knows I find it comforting and that is blummin amazing.....
What a well-behaved dog.
He looked absolutely gorgeous after you finished stripping his coat! Thank you so much! Wonderful video!
Proper hand strip - great to see - very professionally done .
I have a Border Terrier mix, spayed female. I have no idea what she’s mixed with, as I adopted her at three months, after being abandoned in Puerto Rico. I can’t imagine her being this patient.
What's the chalk for? For your grip? Or the dogs skin comfort? Is it a big deal to not use it? Can I use talc if I bathe him afterward?
I think it is basically talc, to absorb oil and fat in the hair and make it more grippy. You shouldn't put on so much so that it goes down in the undercoat, just a light dusting and you will feel the over hairs getting very easy to grip.
(if you have ever worked with drywall you will know what the dust does to your hair)
I never grow tired of this… the right and wrong way becomes self evident each time I see it.
