English term or phrase: full dib
Hi,
I'm translating instructions on how to groom a Cocker Spaniel.
I am "stuck" with full dib. This is the original sentence:

"...clip the hair from the shoulder to front leg, leaving a [full dib] that is blended and left natural."

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks!

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hi Rosa, I appreciate the time you have taken to answer, but I agree with Dlyons. The definition of dib from the freedictionary is related to finishing, the Merriam Webster´s requires me to pay and the deperros.org does not have any term that could be "dib". I have already looked up in my dictionaries that is why I´m asking this question in a forum.

neutral  DLyons: That might well be correct, but do any of those links actually support it?
