Grooming Luna the rough-coated Jack Russell Terrier - part 1 | Kitty Talks Dogs - TRANSGROOM

Watch Kitty groom her own rough-coated Jack Russell Terrier in this 3 part series! When we filmed this video, Luna hadn't been groomed for 3 months. This video series is about putting the Jack Russell rolling coat ready to go to a dog show. In this first video, Luna will be handstripped. All the longest hairs will be gone by the end of the session and we'll see some lines coming to the surface.

Absolutely the best explanation I have found on the Internet. I ended up clipping my boy as it is so hot here but you have given me the confidence to try again. Some people are great groomers but not great teachers. You excel at both. Thank you very much.

I have Jack Russell Terrier her name is Angel and we seem to agree if I cannot take her we just don't go there they do not deserve our custom.She was rescued by a neighbour who saw that his friend was treating her cruelly so he picked her up and gave her to me. I had just lost my Maltese X after 17 years of love and loyalty and I was a mess. My neighbours saw my pain and knew that I loved dogs we saved each other. JRs are unusual dogs with strange behaviours, Angel is very loyal and obedient and she sees her job as my protector, she's wonderful.

[@vff2786]

i have a mix breed dog who has a coat like this, i didnt know i would have to take care of it by pulling hairs but apparently its the best option for her. since its so expensive i decided to do it myself and now ive done a little bit every day while she eats a good treat. but seems like a treat is not enough anymore xD she doesnt like me touching her and i feel like maybe im hurting her, but watching this i realize maybe its just cuz shes not used to it.. i will try more tomorrow with an even better treat for her haha, maybe she will let me finish plucking her neck hair

[@joannmarruffo3884]

My Jack Russell Terrier just turned 1. I just discovered your videos on grooming about 2 months ago. Your videos are very educational, informative and you explain everything so well. I have my stripping knives and brush. How do you train them to keep still. Luna is just beautiful and so obedient! I have been slowly grooming him about 2 - 3 times a week, a little bit at a time. But he is still so wiggly. I also want to know if I can buy some of these grooming accessories from you. Thank you so much for doing all of this.

Merci pour ces vidéos tellement bien expliquées. J'ai une Jack Russel terrier d'un peu plus d'1 an et nous ne trouvons pas de toiletteur convenable. Les ciseaux sont souvent beaucoup utilisés... Je voudrais le faire moi-même mais j'ai mille questions!! Puis-je l'épiler un peu tous les jours ou dois-je vraiment la faire entièrement toute les 2-3 semaines? Comment être certaine que le poil est à enlever? Comment savoir que je ne tire pas trop fort? Peut-on venir demander conseil avec notre chien dans votre magasin? Organiserez-vous de nouveau des workshop? En tout cas, grand grand grand merci et nous vous visiterons bientôt dans votre boutique.

[@stephaniebrown7054]

Hello! Thank you for this! My rough coat, 9 year old jack has never been stripped, do you think its possible to start doing this with him. I would expect it to be gradual. Also, he is not a show dog. Is there a time of year he should not be stripped, for example during winter? Or should it just be done regularly throughout the year. How frequently would you recommend? Thank you!

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Stephanie I would definitely try if it was my dog, the difference in coat quality is to big to ignore. I would strip every two weeks a bit and keep on doing this for a few months. As long as your dog is happy and comfortable its good. after 4 to 5 weeks you should see ( is you open the coat ) little hairs coming out. after 8 weeks again you wil see more little hairs coming out. After 6 months the coat should be wiry again. on www.transgroom.com we have a blog page there you can find much information on strippping as well. I hope this work for you good luck, stay safe and enjoy grooming

[@ernstvonrichthofen]

My Jack won't put up with the grooming, he only accept cutting by machine. His is the king of the house/area and put up a powerfight every time but I love him to bits. -

My wire hair Jack Russell, Dusty, passed away after 16 years during this pandemic. She had Betty Davis eyes and an Elvis Presley smile. She was the most lovingest dog on the planet. She rode in my sidecar with me and my Bichon, Murphy. They were inseparable friends and became my pals, my friends, my buddies and my confidants during the lock down of this pandemic. Both were rescue dogs and both were a blessing to our home. The rough coat Jack Russell is the more common name than me calling them wire haired Jack Russells, but it is the term I first learned. Dusty was on her last day at the shelter before she was to be put to death there when we got her. Man, the loving memories she brings. He had a large golden rust colored spot on her left side, and we always called it her lucky spot. She loved it when I said, "Come here Dustaroo, and let me pet your lucky spot." She was a land walrus and always a bit overweight. She could be 10 blocks away and yet be right between your legs in a heartbeat before you could think to open up that fridge door. ;-) Nice video. Thanks for sharing. I miss her so very much.

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello James, thank you for your message. I feel the love trough you message for Dusty . keep up the wonderful memories !! Thank you for sharing your story and love . if we can help you with something , Please don't hesitate to contact us . Thank you

[@cynthiagarrett886]

HI there, I have a 5 month old Wire Haired Fox Terrier. I noticed some matting on her abdominal area. The hair just rolled into two or three mats. I tool her in to be evaluated by a groomer and she was supposed to remove those mats and trim the insides of her legs. When I went to pick her up, she had less than 1/4 inch hair all over her body and they even shaved her face and ears. Now, I am not trusting anyone else with her and I am trying to educate and equip myself to groom her. I hope her coat is not ruined. Do you have any recommendations where to start to recover. I have a SS comb and I comb thoroughly every other day. She has no mats and I do see some of what looks like hair that you get from stripping. Since, she has never been stripped, I am not sure.

[@Ana-oc5ip]

So far one of the best videos for grooming a terrier. I have a Parson Russell. How can you tell what type of cost they have?

I think she meant coat. I have a similar problem with my Parsons - he seems like a roughcoat, but some is soft, some rmore wiry but he's like a big ball of fluffy fur! He's 10 months old@@TransgroomTV

[@VNhl]

Hello! My 8 month old jack has been stripped a week ago, but I doesn't like it. He doesn't seem any more as a real Jack Russel. Is it possible to strip him there where the groomer has used the scissors? How can I make sure or what can I do that the hairs on the whole feed grows again fluffy as they were? Thank you

[@carola.johnson6104]

I got my shortie, rough coat, white & sable JRT in 2020 when he was 1 1/2. He is a handsome boy! A breeder was retiring him & she wanted him to be spoiled rotten. You'll get the idea reading the name I gave him & he totally owns it .. LiL Buggar. I live alone and turned 75 XMAS DAY. I've had twin Wheaton Terrier sisters, and then I had Teddy, a miniature Schnauzer, & NOW it is LiL Buggar & me. I have been watching over & over Luna's grooming. I bought all of the tools recommended. PLEASE PRAY FOR US as I start the stripping journey. I used to think it was cruel to strip a dog (shows my ignorance). I want him to live for a minimum of 15 years. I have MS, so we produce ways for him to exercise & I have a dog walker come on the weekend. He races as fast as he can from one end of the house to the other. When he is not up in my lap in the evening, he HUMPS the 3 beds he has in the main living area until he is out of breath! I called his vet to make sure he did the big SNIP. I told him it was like watching a PORNO movie. I can't leave him in the fenced-in yard because no matter what I do to make it impossible for him to dig out ... He's gone in 15 minutes! I really think I would die if something happened to him; he is all I have in the world. My brother once asked me if I researched JRT and I told him I wouldn't change a thing about him except I wish the breeder had done the stripping for 8 weeks on. I will continue to watch your videos. I wish you lived next door!! Thanks for listening, Carol & LiL Buggar

Hello, great video. My jack russell is rough coated but has not very much undercoat. Is there anything i can do or give to improve it?

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello , thank you so much for your comment , Can i just ask how much time there is in between 2 grooming sessions ? sometimes if you wait too long, the undercoat is the same length as the upper coat . There can be so many reasons, why there is no undercoat . It can be genetic , depending of the foot , hormones , ... so many reasons ... What is your groomer saying about that matter ? Thanks

[@dahaus6802]

Once you have shaved the coat is there a way to get that double coat back? We have a dog with this same original coat but he was trimmed with clippers now his fur is very thin

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello, thank you for your Message, It's possible to get the hard coat back. Depending on the Age of the dog & If he his Neutered ? So you can restore his coat, if you put energy & time in , every week. Every week you strip gently some hairs out of the coat? and you build up his harder coat. . this is the only way, you get back the rough coat .

How would you use these tools on a Pomeranian.? I’m very interested into these tools and want my dog to look and feel better

[@bubblepig1121]

Pomeranians are brushed and slightly scissored, you do not hand strip this coat. Get a slicker brush and a comb, and some scissors to neaten up the paws, legs, butt, ears etc.

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Kaitlyn , thank you for your message. The Pomeranian has a totally different coat that Luna. Luna has a handstrip coat. So it's not ok to use the same products & materials. You need good shampoo & conditioner, sprays ; Brush, combs and scissors. Please look at your website to find all the products: www.transgroom.com If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us. Have a nice day.

Hello Question when do you start this process On puppies I have a 9 week old JRT

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Angelika, we recommend to start as soon as possible . not for the whole grooming session, but to get used to stand on the grooming table and to brush her , and bit by bit you can start to handstrip , clipping the nails. standing still.. all the small things that matters :-) kind regards,

[@dogsltdtraining]

Is the shed-stopper like a furminator? If there is a difference, what is the difference?

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Linda, First of all sorry for the Later answer . No the shed stopper isn't the same as the Furminator. Because it doesn"t cut the hair of the dog like a furminator. You have to use the Shed stopper very gentle and on short pieces. you will see that the Shed stopper doen't cut the fur. Kind Regards

[@dogsltdtraining]

Thank you so much for this gem of a video Kitty! I have started to try and rehabilitate my Rough coated JRT, Marty, after having taken him to traditional groomers who were shaving his coat with clippers. Unbeknownst to me, this was the worst thing I could do for my little rescue JRT! After discovering you, I've read about the breed and just so intrigued by your techniques, and so impressed with Luna's coat! I've bought all the tools you've recommended, and I already see a huge improvement in his hair. It is starting to lie down, and he doesn't look like a walking sheep any more! I would though love and appreciate any advice/tips you might share on this rehab process for his coat? Ie: All around his neck area, the hair is still flipping up and has a bit of a wave to it on the end tips making him look like a frosted cake. I know this is a result from all the clipper cutting hair cuts he received, but hoping will it eventually lie down like the rest of his coat? Thank you so very much! All the best, Diane and Marty xx

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Diane , Thank you for your message . I am happy to help you further . What i can recommend or suggest is please have a lot of patient . Let the hairs grow for a couple of months . so that the hairs come very long and it's easy to strip off . I also recommend ; to strip it afterwards 1 time bold. you the place that are curly and soft. i know it will be weird ; but harder coat will come . please let me know if if i can help you further. Kind regards; Kitty

My purebred JRT is 6mo old. Not a show dog. Can I clip the coat with grooming shears or clipper. She won’t stay still enough for stripping

[@alexktz86]

please dont do it,look for a groomer in your area to help you out.

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Lesley, please handstrip or find a groomer who can handstrip, please have a look below what wil happen if you clip or scissor your dog. If you have a hand-stripping breed you should not cut your dog’s coat. Cutting can result in the coat losing its natural texture and vibrant colours. To prevent having a dog with a soft coat and dull colours you should hand-strip. If the coat is not hand-stripped the dog can also get skin problems due to irritation. If the dead hair is not pulled out, another hair will grow in the same follicle. This causes clogged follicles which means the skin cannot breathe anymore. As hairs keep growing in the same follicle, (the hair can’t fall out naturally it must be pulled) they become finer, lose their colour and lose their natural thick texture. Some coats will even start be curly and be very fluffy. Foto 1 Wouldn’t you like to have a beautiful and happy dog with its natural coat, natural structure and color as he was bred to be? Benefits of hand-stripping a ruff coat • A healthy skin and coat: the ruff coated dog breeds need to have the old coat removed to allow new and healthy coat to grow. The skin is healthy because the hair follicles are not clogged with old hairs that are not removed. • Deep and beautiful colors: the colour of the coat will stay vibrant and true to the originally intended colour. White stays snow white; red brown stays bright, warm red brown. • Protection and Maintenance: the hard coat repels water dust and dirt much better than other coated dog breeds. This type of coat also forms less mats than others because of the thicker coat. Disadvantage of clipping or scissoring a ruff coat • Texture: the coat changes from wired and ruff to soft and fluffy and even to curly and silky. The coat attracts dust and dirt and needs more maintenance because soft coat needs more washing and brushing. • Colour: the colour becomes pale and dull. Red brown coat becomes beige; white becomes yellow; black becomes grey. • Skin problems: if the dead coat is not removed, new hairs are continuously been produced and grow in the same follicle. This irritates the skin pores and clogs up the follicle and the skin produces much to much oil to try to solve this problem. • The skin pores become clogged too because there is just too much hair. This weakens the skin resistance and becomes vulnerable to fungus and yeast infections. I hope this wil cinvince you to handstripping and not clipping or scissoring

Transgroom TV I think my JRT is not a “rough coat”. Her hair is soft and not broken with different textures...

If the whiskers are cut on a Jack Russell will they grow back

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Alan thank you for your message , Yes the whiskers will always grow back after stripping or cutting . Some groomers leave the whiskers , so this all is very personal . Kind regards, Kitty

[@alanmillward831]

@@TransgroomTV Thank you for your reply, he's only a 12week old puppy I was told by the breeder not to cut off his whiskers as they would not grow back, I suspected someone had cut them when I took him to the vets for his second shots although when I questioned them they would not admit it and told me to find another vet and has I hope to show him I was concerned about his face hair would not grow back ,your Luna is absolutely lovely

Goedemorgen, mijn Jack Russell heeft last van haar ogen. Ik denk door de haartjes. Hoe kan ik die weg keuken? Ze gaat regelmatig naar de trimster maar ze heft dus tussendoor nog last van hartjes denk ik een de trimster wil niet zeggen hoe ze dat doet. Kunt u het mij zeggen of voordoen hoe ik dat zelf kan doen. Ik zal er hèèl erg blij mee zijn. Ik hoop iets van u te horen. Gr. Marianne

[@TransgroomTV]

Hoi Marianne, dank je wel voor jouw berichtje . Je kan de wimpers en haartjes aan de ogen van jouw hond , altijd gaan weg plukken , epileren zeg maar. Zoals de trimster doet . je neemt de haartje en trekt deze eruit , in de haargroei richting mee. Dank je wel

Kitty - after using stripping chalk, does the dog need to be bathed to keep from having skin problems?

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Linda, It's not necessary to wash the immediately after using the Chalk. It's not recommended to wash a handstrip dog after he is groomed. you have to wait because you can create skin irritation if you wash directly. Let me know if we can help you further . Kind regards .

Why can’t I give my JRT a #3 all around. I know that’s an ignorant question. Thank you.

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Matt, We understand your Question . We recommend not to shave your Jack Russel . This will have a bad influence on this coat . The colors of the fur will get very light , the coat wil get very wooly. the dogs coat begint to moult ... the dogs skin will get itchy ..all reasons why you don't shave a stripping coat . Kind regards .

Ive never done stripping before but it looks so intimadating

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Diogo, you defently have to try, it doesn't hurt the dog , it's a wire coat, so it needs to be stripped, to keep the coat in shape and healthy. Kind regards.

Totally disagree with grain free food. It's a no-no now that it has been linked to heart defects.

[@TransgroomTV]

Hello Sammi, thank you for your message, I just spent a while speaking grain free and investigating what's going on. I wish it was easier to protect our pets, one day they say that's the best and than after a while they say it's not. It's a bit like our food one day butter is ok the next it's forbidden. Anyway thank you for making me aware, I shall investigate more and go forward with the new findings. take care.... stay safe

[@danlightowler4259]

Think this is a little cruel, the dog looked better at the start anyway! Rough just as intended. My rough coat terrier gets the odd trim but he's rough for a reason, its in the name eh!

[@bubblepig1121]

Hand stripping the dog is not cruel at all. It helps maintain the coat and help build a good coat with proper layers. If you look at the breed standard it is supposed to be hand stripped, and not just be rough and not groomed at all.

[@iknowyouwanttofly]

I used to think so to so only striped the back of my dog and shaved/cliped the sensitive areas like the stomack. What a mistake!! It has turned the dog wooly in those places so when the hair gets long at all it starts to collect dirt and sticks it gets mats super easy and his rough hair never gets mats and does not get very dirty. So it would have been alot kinder to him to just learn the right info on handstriping from the begining and do it on the stomack to. I can tell that the handstriping does not hurt. I made a mistake and now turning it around will be hard both for me and the dog so please dont spread misinformation I dont want more dogs to have this kinds of problems. If someone does not want to have a dog handstriped they should buy a shorthair dog. That coattype is not wooley in the same way as a shaved dog that should be handstriped so it will not create the same problems.
