Custom, hand spinning of dog hair, cat hair, rabbit fur, etc.
Despite popular belief, it is not the length of fiber that determines how well it will spin into yarn, but the diameter (also referred to as "microns") of the individual hairs. The finer the fiber, the softer the yarn.

dog hair can be spun. It is quite popular right now. I have been asked to spin up some Pyr fluff just waiting for it to get here. I have even been asked to spin human hair. Cheigora is what dog hair is called when spun

Go to : www.vipfibers.com
It's a real interesting web site. Good luck on your project- I'm collecting my son-in-law's Malamute's wool to make him a pair of socks.
