Grooming Springer Tummy
You will probably notice that over time the fur on your Springers tummy will grow out so Grooming Springer Tummy has to be done regularly, and as they run through long wet grass so you will want to trim this back and keep it short needs to be done regularly as it can get very muddy and mucky.
So get hold of your trimming scissors as pictured here as they trim the fur nice and neatly with a layered look. A normal pair of scissors will give it a choppy look so it is worth investing in these scissors.
Get your springer to lie on their back and trim from the outside in, taking care of sensitive bits like teats and other sticky out pieces.I then trim it pretty short as George is much easier to maintain, it dries much quicker when it is clipped back, and less likely to trap mud and dirt.
Once the tummy is done I also work on the rear end as you can see in the pictures here and groom the feathers around their bottom so that burs and mud don't get tangled up.
