There are several places on the internet that sell wrappers for dogs requiring them. I think one of the places is call Lainee ltd.com. I think that's it. I know Cynthia Cage (not sure if that is spelled right), also sells wrappers and binders.
They used to call them bakery wraps. They were similar to wax paper but smaller and not as waxy. There is also "rice" paper wraps. I think it depends on the texture of the coat which wrap works best. I used to do nothing but wrap my Yorkies coats with wraps, but after 20 years of not showing and then coming back into it, I'm talking with several breeders that do not wrap at all. Oil seems to be the preference for some. I think it all depends on the time you have to wrap and the kind of coat. My friend has a bitch with lovely silk coat, but it really breaks and mats with wraps.
I have a bitch with very dark (too dark yet) silk coat that never tangles not matter what I do.
Has anyone here ever used oil and then decided against it for any reasons? I've heard some say that is "dulls" the coat when used all the time?
Hope that might help?
