Hi all, i'm new here.

I have a two year old Cairn, she's my baby :P . I've been trying to explain to my groomer how a Cairn should look as the groomer isn't very experienced, but honestly, i'm not sure that i'm the best judge of appearance as i'm a new-ish owner, so I was thinking about taking in some really good photographs to be used as examples of correct Cairn grooming. I've googled some images, but I don't know which are a good representation. I'd love it if those with experience could post some good example photos or provide links to good photos and even better if you can explain what it is about that makes it a good example Vs a bad one.

Thank you in advance!

Welcome!

If you have a look in the gallery under events, you may find some dogs in show coat that would be good examples that you would like to emulate. Here are some random examples... one from the 2011 National Specialty
