Is Emily shown? I know when we were showing my collie and the breeder was showing us how to groom him for the ring, she cut his whiskers... I didn't really care for that because I love doggy whiskers, but apparently they all did that.

I don't know how true it is as I don't remember the source but I read later if whiskers are continually cut they grow back thinner/finer and the dog loses some of their sensory acuity.
