-- I got your note, and am stuffing some fur in baggies even as I type, well, before or after.
I made a wooly bugger the other day, using a dubbing rope wound with gold wire and faux fur. It's the wooliest bugger I've ever seen. If you chop up your pooch's guard hairs, and mix it with the undercoat, it would probably do really well. I use two vices, one rotary and one not, to do the dubbing rope. Make a loop of wire between the two vices and smear on some sticky wax. Spread the hair on (don't put too much, play around with it until you get what you like). Then rotate until it's really really tight. When you wrap this on the hook, it takes the place of the chenille and the palmered hackle.
