I think so much of hair quality is genetics, good breeders choose dogs based on hair quality. If it were easy to suppliment the diet with food or use a product that made bad hair look good, breeders would not need to look at hair quality. If the diet is really poor supplementation can help, and there are certain products that can make hair a little more manageable, but overall, there's not much you can do. You try to find products that don't damage hair, so it doesn't break off too early. I think you might be happier if you just accepted Fifi's hair, and find a great cut. Joey has great silky thick hair, but after playing with his "nephew", his hair started breaking and didn't reach the floor any longer, I thought it was more important for him to have play time with other dogs, than to have a great coat, and his groomer cut the body hair short and left the legs long. Lots of yorkies with perfect hair sport short coats. I just love the new cut, and he looks great all the time. |
