To get a gorgeous coat you really have to take care with the dog. They need to be kept off carpeting, because when they rub and roll on it, that breaks the hair, they should have satin covered pillows to lay on in their beds, or they should be covered with a soft cotton material. They should be oiled and wrapped to prevent breakage, and to help the hair grow. It is a lot of work keeping a show dogs coat looking good, which is why most show people cut down their dogs after they receive their championships. Much, much easier to care for. |
