Default Does anybody spin their Yorkie's fur?

Been away from the forum a few weeks -- all is ok, but life got a little too hectic for a while.

I'm a weaver and a beginning spinner, and in last month's guild meeting one of the members was talking about spinning yarn from her dog's fur. I did a little research and it turns out Yorkie hair is an excellent fiber for spinning.

So last time I took Tallulah for grooming I saved her hair and when I've accumulated enough, I'll try spinning it. I'm wondering if anyone else has done this and if so, what were your results? I'm especially interested in what the ideal hair length is.
