Try washing with Bright Lights or any purple shampoo. Also mane and tail works great on any pig! Put in on 30 minutes before washing! Just be careful with the purple shampoo on the white areas! If you leave it on too long it will give the white area a purple tint! Follow up with Sudden Impact spray from Sullivan's right before show!

Agreed, and keep him wet every chance you get in ring pens.

If your doing a fall show where it's cooler out, keep you pig looking moist. Get a spray bottle and spray her/him all over... Or in the fall use baby oil... If it's a summer show don't baby oil, judges don't like to see baby oil on really hot show days because it doesn't let the pigs skin breath, so just use water on those show days...
