| Hairspray or gel for dogs? I'm trying to grow out Brutus' hair and it's almost there but he still has these hairs that will not stay up. Do they make like a gel or hairspray for dogs? I've attached some pictures of what he looks like before a band and after. These little stray hairs drive me crazy! Also he's going through such a big color change all of a sudden as he's nearing 8 months! I don't know if you can see it in the picture but the hair on his back is starting to turn silver and the hair on his head has a mixture of everything. Is there anyway to tell what he'll look like when he's older?

His color sounds and looks good in the picture. Mine all go through a smoky gray stuff and then the adult color comes after that. But they all seem to break differently. Just have to hang on to your hat and wait and see. If you met his parents, his color will probably be in that range. Thanks for sharing the pics - he's adorable. CJ PS I would take a little bit less hair off of his ears. Just the top third. | |

I met his mother and she had a very light gray coloring and I didn't get to meet his father but I saw a picture of him in the breeders stud magazine and he was darker like this picture of his grandfather. I'm not sure which color I prefer it doesn't matter much but a combo of the two would be nice. Thanks again!

| He is beautiful !!! My groomer uses hair spray for dogs and I think she gets it from Jeffers or another grooming supply company. We go there once and a while to give me a break as I do all my grooming to. I can already picture him in full coat... wow he is going to awesome........ Looks like he is very photogenic too !!!! Nice pics.

| Thank you! I have a stupid question I think. Why can't I just use people hair gel? Does it have something in it that would be bad? I have so many suggestions from all of you that now I can't decide which product to buy!

| Thanks CJ! I know where I'm coming when I need help! I have just one more question for you. I gave Brutus a bath the other day and I read a post from you that for the final rinse you used 1 oz of olive oil, 1 tsp of conditioner and 8 oz of water. So I decided to give it a try. I'm not sure what I did wrong but Brutus was a greasy mess! I couldn't get the oil out so I brushed him and left it overnight and gave him another bath yesterday. The oil is out and his coat has never been silkier but I'm just not sure why it didn't work the first time. Maybe I didn't rinse as much as I should have? Do you have pictures of your yorkies?

| Hairspray or gel for dogs I don't know how many "wispy" hairs there are but I just put my finger in my jar of valeline petroleum jelly and lightly lift the hair up. Works for me???
