misha's tummy hair is ALWAYS a mess. It is curly and stingy. any suggestions?
I make sure he is completely blown dry after his bath, but in 2 days is is nasty.

I have the same thing with Maid Marianne. Seems like the white is the worst part to comb and keep pretty on her. From the pics it looks like Misha's white is on the tummy also. Maybe it's a bicolor/calico thing?

Try using a good degreaser on the tummy and dry completely...and then dry some more!

LOL... Oh, Vickie, this baby is a greaseball so he gets gooped, dawned, and aveenoed with every bath. As he gets bigger it takes about a can and half to do his body. We blow him dry completely, but 48 hours later he is curly tummied.

Thanks for the suggestion, I guess it is just the Misha curse...

Alas, some do seem to be "grease monkeys"... the most amazing thing is how we as Mommy's try so hard to keep them perfect anyway!

Maid Marianne's isn't greasy, it's just curly.

Kody's got a curly tummy as well. it only stays fluffy and somewhat uncurled for a few days after a bath/blow dry.

Thanks for all the replies
