Where can I buy nappa sheepskin with hair on in Canada?

I am looking for sheepskin (shearling) hides with long hair (1 - 2") attached dyed with a nappa finish. I want to make coats from the skins but do not want to buy natural colors. Where can I purchase if possible in Canada? Thanks.

Contact a dresser/dyer.

Sheep are common, you should be able to find them just about anywhere.

You can import wet blue from just about anywhere in the world, by the "ocean freight container" load or less. Then you can have it sheared, re-combed, dyed and finished anywhere and anyhow you like, in Canada.

Edmonton Fur Tanner does sheep skins. I do not know if they dye them though Bob
