Paper or Plastic?

[Bravo916]

Thanks guys! Mary is correct, the real talent is Sheryl and she makes them. Things actually got so crazy with demand that she runs the website and makes the jackets.

I have always used plastic wraps on the body because I could order them in black and they were less noticible when we were out and about. I use paper from Lainee LTD for the face but I had no idea it was silk.

Havoc is the worlds biggest rubber! I have never met a dog that spent so much time backstroking on carpet. Oh well, at least it doesnt matter anymore

Razzle does this too!! I've not been able to break him of the habit! Urgha. any suggestions? I'm considering putting down our silk carpet in the garden room where he/we spend a lot of time - would that help his coat? - or should I just take the carpet up. We have smooth terra cotta tiles in the room - I put down an old rug cause I thought it would be too cold on his little paws. We have two dog beds in the room and our furniture is leather. Wrapping sure takes a lot of time. My breeder says it won't take so long once you get more experienced..

Have a great Xmas all

We have wood flooring in the living room and ceremic tile in the kitchen. Only carpet in the pedrooms and we are planning on pulling this up and putting in wood flooring later. It is a lot easier to keep clean. Carpet is terrible on their coats.

Of things to have....I have Berber carpet. It is terrible on coats. The next remolding we are doing is floors. I saw flooring made of PVC, it was at a dog show. Looks absolutely beautiful. Just like wood and it is suppose to be indestuctable. I just got a brochure on it. Some of it looks like stone also.

Anything would be better than the berber...

I did re-use the plastic wraps and it was actually better the second time around. So I was a little faster at wrapping. Next on my list is a second wrapping jacket Stryker will not leave the wraps in if he is not in a jacket. I have to use one on Reve, his coat is real long and I just don't want to take any chances on breakage with his coat.

I still want to try the silk......got to order some soon.

[WalnutHill]

Great question and very informative answers!

Oh, and I use deli wraps.

[PamBellaJagShy]

Well I have been using the plastic wraps for a couple of weeks now and I they are much better. I think they are easier on the boys coats. Their just not as stiff as the deli wraps. They also can be reused, definitely prefer the plastic. I use purple....love purple. I took some new pics of the boys tonight after their bath...my handsome boys

Still need to get my hands on the silk.......

[PamBellaJagShy]

Here are some pics of the boys after I changed their wraps tonight. I love when they are groomed and look so handsome. I love these boys to pieces. They are definitely Momma's boys. Love it!

[PamBellaJagShy]

The first set is Stryker...these are Le Reve'

[Bravo916]

Very pretty boys Pam! Great job on their coats!!

I'm trying.....Stryker is easy to work with. He sits very still and lets me work on him. Now Le Reve' (RAY) he makes me chase him al over the table. I have a grooming arm but I hate to use on him for so long. He is a work out to wrap. He also scratch at his chest alot and breaks his coat. So it is a challenge with that boy. I think I need some boots or something so he can't scratch his face and chest so much. It hard to keep anything wrapped on his face and chest.
