Head fur question

[Sun Valley]

It is all about genetics.

Lynn is correct. Certain bloodlines and pedigree's will produce it.

Cooper has some (I love to push it forward like this):


Zuzu is the Floof Master of the house, however. She has a bit of Tina Turner in her.

This will sound silly, but I always stroke their head fur forward to help it stand up more. When I was showing Piper, I would spritz her floof, brush it forward and let it dry.

But I do think genetics play a part. My Hugo's fur tended to lay towards the back. He did have some long straggly floof fur that stood up, but it was so ridiculous, I used to trim it off.

I Agree, I have a couple that their head is more back, I thinnk that was before I knew better, and learned to stroke their heads forward. My understanding of it, is the it stimulates the head muscles more and it's dual purpose, to keep the ears in the "Proper" position (Show Ring), and it pops-up the "Floof" to produce that Fuzzy Look on top. JMHO.:angel: Could be wrong but that's what I got. An example:

BTW - The King of Floof on NN is Nanook Floof King Extraordinare! And Pooka is no slouch either. Their Nessa's Boys.
