My dubbing isn't on pelts..just in bags, such as SLF and those you can get in any good fly shop. I love that stuff, as well as UV dub. Again, not pelts, bags. Much of my plain dark dubbing fur to hold things together comes from Lion brand wool/acrylic yarn which I cut up and turn to dubbing in a coffee blender. The rest comes from washing, drying and then brushing the beagle with a furminator (great dubbing getting tool). Joyce
