How do they keep the pelts in such nice shape with strays?

If you go out on any street here in the US, and look at a stray dogs coat, its usually in really bad shape. Insect infestations and skin diseases being very common. Dogs in urban environments almost always seem to have these issues.

I wonder how these dog fur traders get around these problems with the strays?

Actually , I think there are some problems with the story here......Just my opinion.

You are spot on, and also strays in eastern Europe would be in far worse condition than American strays, so there goes the flawless gleaming coat.

I had those same questions as I unearthed video after video of raccoon dogs and German Shepards and even a Golden Retriever being skinned alive.

There is no doubt this is happening however. Germans Shepards are the number one breed for this cruelty and they are used for so many different fun furs (brightly dyed) all over the world. It is incredibly cruel. Please don't buy anything from China.
