The groomer said when the dark follicles are cut it continues to grow out white from where it was cut instead of it's original dark color.<BR/><BR/>You are still a handsome dude.<BR/><BR/>Luna Licks,<BR/><BR/>Luna-ticLuna "The Scruffy Yacht Dog"https://www.blogger.com/profile/17567293510975773876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8807149144236152983.post-51680414872370490792008-11-11T10:25:00.000-08:002008-11-11T10:25:00.000-08:00Well we think you look very handsome...Archie says...Well we think you look very handsome...Archie says to tell you he wishes he had some hair in certain spots....Oh the things we WFT's have to endure..Love and kisses A+AAgatha and Archiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04699905563303394069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8807149144236152983.post-49871881296137355852008-11-11T10:24:00.000-08:002008-11-11T10:24:00.000-08:00Hey Tell -- Yep, it's the clipper. This is what we...Hey Tell -- Yep, it's the clipper. This is what we do to save some of our color and not experience the ouchies of stripping some sensitive spots or the cost of a professional stripping which akes us very nervous. <BR/><BR/>First we get furminated several times a month to get rid of the loose undercoat. Then, maybe every two or three months, Dogdad will pluck our ears and our faces and our jackets until he gets to the places on our backs where we don't like it at all. Then he'll get out the clippers and clip our undersides and lightly trim our furnishings and voila, the best of both worlds.<BR/><BR/>It's a pawsonal thing -- but we have read that it is healthier to strip a wire's jacket to get rid of the old hairs.<BR/><BR/>Regardless of your color, you are still one very handsome wire fox terrier!!!<BR/><BR/>Jake and Just HarryJake of Floridahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14460837412289201219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8807149144236152983.post-51727854742995459552008-11-10T18:19:00.000-08:002008-11-10T18:19:00.000-08:00Yep Tell....Hate ta tell ya it's the clipper inste...Yep Tell....<BR/><BR/>Hate ta tell ya it's the clipper instead of the stripper...tell yer Mom she can get back some color just by runnin' a strippin' knife thru yer coat.....just drag it thru so it will take out the undercoat....takes awhile but the colors will come back......<BR/><BR/>Dewey Dewster here....Dewey Dewsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05914196998405769869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8807149144236152983.post-16185324444461467082008-11-09T02:13:00.000-08:002008-11-09T02:13:00.000-08:00You're still very handsome to us, Tell!

We get clipped too and our black saddles now have a lot of brown streaks...so maybe THEY are right! Whatever! Mom isn't going to pay the fortune they want to hand strip us! You still look very handsome to us! Maybe the Furminator would help to restore some of your color. We don't know for sure!

It is all to do with the undercoat. All sounds very technical to me.
