I sew and I was thinking of making a little outfit (I guess you would call it a jogging suit) that is lined with satin and covered the feet too, so that our show dogs would be able to go outside too without ruining their coats when we take the dogs out to play.
Also do you blowdry on cool or warm? I would worry that using the blowdryer too frequently would dry out their coats? Or do you use an ion dryer? |
I nip the ends about once a month until they are in full coat. But, that is how I do it.....I do this for the split ends. I use plastic wraps so, I don't use oil. What I use is either Ice-On-Ice or a leave-in conditioner.
Cynthia Kage's web site has a satin coat to go over wraps so, the little terrorists won't take off their wraps. I have one, but have not had the need to use it until now......Denny or better known as Double D for Demon Denny.
I blow dry my dogs upside down, so, I start with their tummies with warm and then go to cool. I have a professional dryer at home and have a table professional dryer that I travel with.
