    • Leg

    • Feet

    Correct Answer
    A. Leg
    Explanation
    To achieve a compact and well-arched appearance for the feet, they are clipped very close to the edge of the foot. This clipping is then extended onto the leg, creating a bevelled effect. This technique helps to create the desired shape and look for the feet, giving them a fuller and more polished appearance.

    Before trimming, the dog must be completely matt- and tangle-free and for this you will need to use :-

    • Clipper

    • Slicker Brush

    Correct Answer
    A. Slicker Brush
    Explanation
    To ensure that the dog's fur is completely matt- and tangle-free before trimming, a slicker brush is needed. A slicker brush has fine, short wires close together that effectively remove loose hair, mats, and tangles from the dog's coat. This type of brush is gentle on the dog's skin and helps to prevent discomfort or pain while brushing. Using a slicker brush before trimming will make the grooming process easier and ensure a smooth and even trim.

    • To accompany circuses.

    • Organ Grinders

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. To accompany circuses.
    A. Fun Fairs
    A. Organ Grinders
    Explanation
    During the late 1800s, Bichons became less desirable because they were used for various purposes. They were commonly used to accompany circuses, where they would perform tricks and entertain the audience. They were also seen at fun fairs, where they would participate in games and activities. Additionally, Bichons were used by organ grinders, who would travel around with their organs and the dogs would attract attention and help gather an audience. These uses of Bichons during that time period contributed to their decreased desirability as pets.

    The Bichon Frise’s pattern calls for the coat to be about one inch long all over, as the coat outlines the natural contour of the entire body.Select two of the procedures:-

    • Hand scissored

    • Clippers with a long guard comb.

    • Blade

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Hand scissored
    A. Clippers with a long guard comb.
    Explanation
    The Bichon Frise's coat is supposed to be about one inch long all over, which means it requires careful trimming and shaping. Hand scissoring is a technique that allows for precise cutting and shaping of the coat, ensuring that it follows the natural contour of the dog's body. Clippers with a long guard comb can also be used to achieve a uniform length of one inch all over the coat. Using a blade alone may not provide the desired length and precision required for this specific pattern.

    • Cut across the bottom of the chin.

    • Cut the chin hair about the same length as the head hair.

    Correct Answer
    A. Cut across the bottom of the chin.
    Explanation
    The Bichon Frise's head is broad, so when cutting a bell shape head, it is important to cut across the bottom of the chin. This helps to maintain the desired shape and proportions of the head. Additionally, cutting the chin hair about the same length as the head hair ensures a balanced and uniform appearance.

    The crest is like a mane; it starts from the top of the head and ends by the shoulders. The crest is generally left shorter than the rest of the coat on the body

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement describes the crest as starting from the top of the head and ending by the shoulders, and being generally left shorter than the rest of the coat on the body. However, this statement is incorrect. The crest actually refers to a ridge of hair or feathers along the back or neck of an animal, such as a horse or bird. It is not limited to the head and shoulders, and it is not necessarily shorter than the rest of the coat. Therefore, the correct answer is False.
