Keeping their hair nice

[Kristi]

I think everyone else has offered great advice I use a finishing spray on my guys, basically a leave-in conditioner that I brush or blow dry in, to add shine and lusture. The brand I use isn't avail in the UK tho so it wont be of much help to you But I am sure there are some similar things over there.

How old is Pixel? age has a lot to do w/ coat in some lines too...the boy I have isn't supposed to even START getting his adult coat in until 18-24 months...sucks for me! Also some just have more coat, less coat, more fringe, less fringe, etc...but still, any type of LC can of course look healthy.

It could be time of year too! Lotus looks shut I'm glad I'm not showing her because she's dropped her coat and it's not gleaming like normal. Wait til winter she's v young to remembe takes til 3 for coats to come in!

Daisys gonna look like a Yetty lol

yes Daisy is so lush and her coat tdf

Hey I love Pix whatever her coat and she's shiny but she needs to be softer and less greasy.

How often should I be bathing them?

[Sarah]

If she gets greasy I'd bath her. I do mine monthly whether they need it or not

I do think diet is important and I feed an eclectic diet, based on organic foodstuffs

As far as shampoo goes, I'll use whatever I am using (shock horror) but again, it will be organic.

This one is beautiful and the dog's coats are great with it. I don't have a set regime with bathing, depends on how they look and where they have been

hi kristi , interested to no what finishing spray you use x ?

[Sarah]

She uses pure paws We can import it but it's ridiculous and for uk show dogs I would steer clear... With coat testing you would be disqualified if they tested your dog and it had something on it's coat.
