The
ideal Mini Satin fur should be silky, fine and very dense to the touch, due to a
soft very dense undercoat. This fine, soft, dense undercoat should be
interspersed thickly with lustrous slightly coarser guard hairs. These guard
hairs form a protective surface for the under fur, giving body, density and
resilience in texture so that when the fur is stroked toward the head, it will
return to its natural position and lie smoothly over the entire body. The coat
should be well balanced with uniform length. It must have an appearance of
distinct, glossy, lustrous sheen. The sheen is due to the clarity of the glass
like hair shell and its ability to reflect light.
Disqualification from
competition - Absence of sheen.
