1) Conceals Discolouration Quickly

This specialised cream instantly masks visual imperfections like tear stains, red elbows, or worn patches on white coats — ideal for show prep or everyday sparkle.

FAQ's

Q: What is Plush Puppy Cover-Up Cream used for?
It's a smooth white cream that instantly masks stains, blemishes and discolouration on white coats and white areas. Think tear stains, red or worn elbows, muzzle staining and general "meh, that's seen better days" patches — covered up fast for a clean, show-ready finish.

Q: Will it actually cover discolouration, or just hide it a bit?
It gives proper instant masking, not just a light dusting. Because it's buildable, you can layer it up over a few applications until the area looks fully covered — no bleach, no chemical lightening, just cosmetic coverage that sits on top of the coat.

Q: How do I apply it?
Apply a small amount with a barely damp sponge. Build up coverage lightly, layer by layer, leaving a few seconds between each application so it doesn't go patchy. Once you've got full coverage, apply your powder or chalk while the cream is still drying, then gently brush off the excess once everything's dry.

Q: Can I use it on its own, or does it need chalk/powder over the top?
Both work. It can be used alone for a quick fix, or as a prechalker — apply the cream first, then chalk or powder over the top for extra brightness and a fuller, denser look.

Q: What breeds or areas is it best suited to?
It's designed for medium to short white coat areas, so it's brilliant on muzzles, legs, hocks and elbows on breeds like Boxers, Border Collies, Whippets and Bull Terriers. It also works nicely inside the ears on Samoyeds or Siberians for a fuller coated look.

Q: Is it safe to use before a show?
Yes — it's a cosmetic, non-permanent cover-up rather than a dye or bleach, so it's a popular pre-ring touch-up for tackling last-minute discolouration without altering the hair itself. As always, check current breed standard and ring rules for your show/breed if you're unsure what's permitted.

Q: Does it wash out easily?
Yes. It's designed to stay put through the day (photos, ring time, the works) but washes out easily with your regular bath afterwards, so there's no buildup left behind.

Q: What size does it come in?
It's available in a 100g tub for $34.10 NZD.

Q: What are the ingredients?
Water (Aqua), Titanium Dioxide, Petrolatum, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Stearic Acid, Cera Microcristallina, Dimethicone, Triethanolamine, Glycerin, DMDM Hydantoin, Phenoxyethanol.

Q: Will it stain my dog's coat or leave residue?
No — it's formulated to wash out cleanly with normal bathing. If you're building up several layers, just make sure each one is properly applied (a few seconds apart) so it dries evenly rather than clumping.
