I have troubles

I usually have trouble with slippage around the muzzle and also the ears. I have gotten better with them but those are the 2 problem areas for me. If you can split the ears quickly and not handle them too much you will be better off. I have been you can thaw them in a acid pickle bath and it will help to stop slippage.
