  • 2. 

    The best way to groom a wirehaired dog is by plucking out any unruly hairs using your ______ or a stripping knife.

    • Brush

    • Fingers

    • Comb

    Correct Answer
    A. Fingers
    Explanation
    The best way to groom a wirehaired dog is by plucking out any unruly hairs using your fingers or a stripping knife. This is because wirehaired dogs have a coarse and dense coat that requires hand-stripping to maintain its texture and appearance. Using fingers allows for a more precise and controlled plucking of individual hairs, ensuring that the dog's coat remains neat and tidy. A stripping knife can also be used for larger areas or to remove dead hair. Using a brush or comb would not be as effective in grooming a wirehaired dog.

    A cylindrical head terrier will have a long, square, angular beard and protruding eyebrows.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    A cylindrical head terrier will not necessarily have a long, square, angular beard and protruding eyebrows. The characteristics of a terrier's beard and eyebrows are not determined by the shape of its head. Therefore, the statement is false.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The Wirehaired Pointing Griffon should have a natural looking coat that seems unkempt and medium in length. This means that the dog's coat should not be overly groomed or styled, but rather have a slightly messy appearance. Additionally, the coat should be of medium length, not too short or too long. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct.
