don't do hair room, you need a hair density so high that your machine will fall apart. I tried to give the cartoon puppy a fur coat that way, it will teach you the limits of everything. But do-able. see http://www.book.artbeeweb.nl/?p=456

The third way is to turn the entire dog, except for the eyes and nose, into one big multi-layered transmapped thing like all other conforming hair in Poser. You need a a lot of bump /displacement texturing to get the looks really good, and you have to model (with the morph brush or so) the out standing strikes (as on the ears) explicitely. Do-able too.

have fun.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.
