does anyone know with the maltese and any other long coated dog how they keep the coat so straight and white do they wrap the coat under the tummy in paper and if so how is it done as id like to try it on my dogs under belly feathers and see if they will stay straight and clean

Hi,
this site is also good as it deals mainly with Maltese.
