					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://blog.lakielove.com/2012/08/31/grooming-part-3-jacket/#comment-106&quot;&gt;Andrea&lt;/a&gt;.

Hi Andre,

First of all, congratulations on taking the time and effort to hand-strip your Lakie! Doing your own grooming not only creates a special bond between owner and dog, but it also helps you detect sickness or injury much sooner, as you will be very familiar with your dog&#039;s physique. Thank you for visiting my blog, I&#039;m so happy that you are finding it helpful!

As far as your question is concerned... Since your Lakie is still pretty young and probably hasn&#039;t been stripped often, I wouldn&#039;t worry about the colour and texture of the coat just yet. Most likely, the wire-hair hasn&#039;t grown in yet. What you are seeing and feeling is the lighter, softer undercoat, which is completely normal on a young Lakie. If you continue to strip on a regular basis, you should quickly see the wire-hair come through - just keep at it!

[If, after several more grooming sessions, you still don&#039;t see/feel the coarser, darker, wire-coat come in, you may accidentally be cutting the coat instead of pulling it out at the root. If this is this case, make sure the tools you use for stripping are blunt.
Also note that, if you leave a lot of time between grooming sessions, stripping may leave your Lakie&#039;s coat softer and lighter than before, as you&#039;ve pulled out all the wire hair, and need to wait on a new layer of wirehair to grow in. The solution to this is regular grooming (at least once a month).]

Long story short: strip on a regular basis, make sure your tools are blunt, and you will get the results you are after, I promise!
 
Good luck &#038; keep me updated!
Rhonda]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi, I just found your blog and I am really happy with the way you explain how to groom a lakeland. I bough a red Lakeland puppy and he turned 6 months old today :).
I decided to start stripping him and this blog is being really helpful and provides detailed information I needed to know. but I got a question... I started stripping my puppy because he started looking like a teddy, when I strip him, his coat is really soft and his colour lighter than he was before... is that normal? I can send you a pic if you want to have a look at him.

Thanks for you help.]]></description>
