This is from another long haired breed but with a silkier texture. Anyone ever heard of anything like this or better yet actually tried it? Do you think it would work? |

Yes and it keeps them from sticking to pan too.
My only fear with the Pam is that it would absorb into the coat too fast. The difference in how things stick to Clyde and Lucy is like night and day. Lucy can roll in mud, dig holes and run through trees and she shakes and it all comes off. Clyde, on the other hand, is wrecked after stepping in a puddle. It might be harder to wash an oily substance out too. I can see it working for a problem area though-- when fixing a problem is mmore important than the work it takes to wash it out! |
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. Your dog smells like chicken. |
Wouldn't it attract other animals (by animals, I mean insects) and irritate the skin? |
I don't know but if Clyde gets any wider I'm going to have to spray it on his sides to get him throgh the doggie door. |
LOL! Poor Clyde! |
How big is Clyde now? |
He's about 80 pounds last time we checked a few weeks ago but it's his width that's the problem! He's just got that wide sheepie build-- he's very compact and solid, like a little battering ram! His butt takes up a lot of space. He kind of "explodes" through the dog door. It's funny but I seriously am going to have to cut a bigger hole in the door if he keeps growing..and he will! |
I wonder if any oil would do the same thing?
Mink oil is VERY popular in the show world of Maltese because it creates an extremely shiny beautiful coat. Is your pam clear? Mine comes out yellow, and that's what I'm curious about getting on their legs. We'll probably go hiking this weekend since Yuki is finally on tick medicine!!!!!!!! Thank goodness. I hate the burrs here in Ok. |
I've been told a silicone based spray works well for keeping off dirt and preventing mats. Can't use it on a show dog of course, but it would be fine for pet coats. |
I own a Golden Doodle. This dog is a bur magnet, and once on her, they are very difficult to remove. I tried something recently that seemed to work well for easing their removal. Prior to our off-leash adventure, I applied water and cream rinse and just left it on without rinsing. Worked well, she still got burs, but they combed out much, much easier |
Pam is canola oil, lecithin and propellent. My guys can't stand to be around the propellent and sneeze. The canola oil, well, it's oil. Lecithin can be sticky so I wonder if that might create a sticky coat. Also how would you wash it off the coat? Baby wipe? |
Sounds like a terrible thing to do to your dog. And what about Pam getting on your furniture, bed, the dog bed, clothes, in their eyes, nose, mouth. I think bacon grease would be better or at least that is what we would use on our little doggies in the south. |

With bacon great they'd never get in the briars, they'd be licking themselves silly. |

Poor Clyde He is just has big bones...More sheepie to love. |

I've actually used the Pam Olive Oil spray on my dogs before going out in the snow. Worked okay but did leave a greasy look and feel to the fur. Like it was over conditioned. |
