As a general rule, how sturdy (for lack of a better word) is Shady's flocking? I have a rather nice, but in need of a little TLC, Shady. Her flocking looks pretty good, I think (well, she is my first So Soft, so I'm guessing, but it looks good to me). There are rubs where you would expect (tips of ears, nose, etc.), but other than that, it is nice and thick and soft. I wasn't going to wash her (just her mane and tail), until I looked at her under a light and saw that she is looking a bit dingy. I have heard that some So Softs have really fragile flocking, and others have their flocking essentially super glued on. Where on this spectrum does Shady usually fall?
If she is known for fragile flocking, I probably won't wash her. I was just going to use dish soap, is that okay? Thanks in advance!
