* For lustrous fur, comb through with a little olive oil, leave, then rinse out well with your usual mane cleaner.
* Having trouble with your trotters? A good scrub with a pumice stone removes excess hoof, and leaves them better than ever!
* Alyce favours natural products, as these have no nasty chemicals and are better for fleece and skin; some good suppliers of natual bodycare and cosmetic products are listed in Alyce's Favourite websites.
* Leaving your head-fur to dry naturally after a wash is the wisest option, as blowdrying and overuse of styling products can damage fur (or even melt it if it is synthetic!). This also applies to human "hair", I'm told.
It's a hard life being a sheep!
