I snagged a ton of dog fur from the dog groomer at Petco. It had already been shampooed. It is wonderful for Tups recipe being cream colored and just like baby seals fur. I use a dog brush on my wire hair Jack Russell and the while underbody hair makes a excellent dubbing and along with the big bag from Petco can be dyed to just about any color, well black an olive that I’ve tried.
Yep, pet fur can make a fantastic dubbing as long as the brushing or cutting does not involve bodily injury to you!

Hmmmmm - “Melfie” looks as happy as my cat, “the Persian”......... I guess they both don’t like being used as a dubbing source!!
