<br />
The poodle is a very large (100 pound+) male with jet black hair and, currently, a very long coat, about 4 or 5 inches in length all over right now. He has a shaved face and a 6&quot; long goatee on his chin. :D<br />
<br />
The groomer is looking for some good ideas. Any suggestions?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hi!  I'm new to this forum.  I am opening a kennel and salon very soon.  I am not a groomer myself, but will be advertising for an experienced groomer to contract with.  I will supply the salon equipment (grooming table, tub, dryer, etc.), and I would like to get quality equipment.  Does anyone have any recommendations on brands or features you like best in your equipment?  Any and all advice is appreciated.  Thanks!!</div>

<br />
I'm just a novice dog groomer and have only groomed by own English Springer Spaniels, but the other day I was approached by someone who really admired my work (felt very proud I have to say :headbanger:) and asked me if I would groom their 5mth old American Cocker Spaniel.<br />
<br />
I've been looking into sites and studying pictures and understand what I need to do on the top half of the dog but am struggling to figure out what to do with the legs.  The dog is not a show dog and just a pet and the owner stated they just wanted her tidy, but after looking at pictures ACS legs still do appear rather bushy.  <br />
<br />
Is there anyone out there who can advise me what I do (clip, thin out) as I just want the owner to love the finished outcome.<br />
<br />
Hopefully hear from some of you guys soon<br />
