Text Box: How to groom your Field Spaniel—Photos of grooming

This rear leg is very shaggy. The hair hanging down from the thigh is too long as is the hair between the toes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notice how different the rear leg looks when trimmed.  The hair on the feet has been trimmed. The hair on the rear pastern has also been shortened neatly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This shaggy tail is just beginning to show a “flag” (hair growth beneath the tail).  Some Field Spaniel fanciers like to leave a flag, others prefer the tail without the flag.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now the tail has been trimmed and neatened. Notice the blending that has been done near butt and the sides of the thighs into the tail., so that there are no sharp lines apparent.
