Together, they explore why hand stripping is such an important but often misunderstood grooming technique, and why it is at risk of becoming a dying art. Mia and Carola share the inspiration behind the book, the knowledge gaps they see in the grooming industry, and why understanding the science behind coat care can give groomers more confidence with both dogs and their owners. The conversation covers everything from coat anatomy, genetics, common myths, pricing hand stripping properly, working with breeders, managing client expectations, and why groomers need reliable education rather than just opinion-led advice from social media. Whether you are a groomer wanting to build confidence with hand stripping, an owner of a hand-stripped breed, or simply passionate about preserving specialist grooming skills, this episode is packed with insight, encouragement, and plenty of “don’t panic” moments. To order the book on release visit their website or the Great British Bookshop and https://groomerdkusa.com/ (US Purchases) As always, I'd like to thank the podcast sponsor, Lopay , the low-cost payment platform that helps you keep more of the money you earn.
