As Crufts is fast approaching, my young lad has decided to shed his coat.  Is there anything that will hls his coat grow back quicker and/or thicker?

I almost choked on my cup of tea, Merlot, absolutely howling here...and yes, I have a naked girl with a 16 week old litter who may just seal the deal by coming in season just in time for Crufts!

Vino came into season 3 days ago so I am pleased we should have that out of the way now at least!
The coat is creeping back but her tail does somewhat resemble a washing line with a couple of odd socks hanging there !!
Hey ho the joys of showing Girlies !!

I decided to keep a dog puppy from my last litter hoping the coats would be easier - WRONG!!

LOL been there with my boy 2 years ago totally naked of coat - like you didn't know they could shed completely - was advised it was his adolescence coat going and it would come back and stay - thankfully (touches wood) it has! 

Sadly nothing you can do realistically than just go with it don't think anything really can encourage it!

Good luck though!

Thank you Rachelsetters - have just got some goodies from Dorwest herbs to try and improve his coat, not that hopeful but have to give it a go....

Im taking my girl with two shaved patches!
luckerly one is on her belly and one on her neck not on the show side and as its a medium coat its harder to see.
