Jojo, speaking of grooming...you need to tell me how you groom Honey's beard. Her coat and features are so close to Lady's, but Lady's beard is way too long for a Lady.

Mandy, I haven't had 1 good professional groom yet, so my pictures won't be of any help.

Hey I am no groomer, cut and hope for the best kinda girl .. Honey is so gorgeous she just carries it off well lol .. I do use scissors for her muzzle area, I just snip off the ends and use thinning scissors to try to thin it out, although my thinning scissors are not very good, so I pretend to be a hairdresser and cut into it a bit lol, I tend to just cut a little bit at a time to try to get the look I like.. It really is that easy ... Honey needs a cut but I am managing matts and I am so proud of myself, but in the next few weeks both girls will be clipped.. it is much more practical for the lovely Spring I am predicting ha ha ha

I would love to see pics of groomed cockapoo faces. I think that's the hardest part to know how to get right and I guess is personal choice. I prefer no beard but am never sure how short to go?! Also, how do you cut the hair along the side of their face? - if they can keep still that is!! -is it just below the mouth and along to under the ear? Biscuit's face hair could almost do with thinning out a bit. What do you call the hair in the middle of the face - I call it a 'fan'!!

Poor Molly gets to suffer my grooming attempts - this is more or less how she usually looks (although not quite sure why the hair is sticking up on her head like she has a cone - that bit is usually brushed back flat)

Lola isn't American but she has a ready made smooth face! She hasn't developed a beard at all! The hair on her head and below her ears and on her ears is getting longer, but face as smooth as ever! Even her mum had a beard!

What a lovely face Lola has. Love those wide-apart eyes. She is very cockerish in her looks. Just shows the amazing variety in our doggies - and all gorgeous:)
