The disputed section talks about problems caused by handstripping (not cited), neglecting to mention problems caused by lack of handstripping: "itching, scratching and rubbing up against furniture, or rolling on the carpet or ground, in an attempt by the dog to naturally remove this dead coat." [1] The information is not comprehensive. It may be controversial, but I do not know whether it is true that, "hand stripping has no advantages over clipping in this day and age." And given that it has not been cited and the section is very heavily biased, I am skeptical to its truth. 67.189.47.25 (talk) 10:14, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
