well, hmmmm.. I don't know whether dry or liquid would make a bit of 
difference since I haven't been able to try either (just heard about the tip
on the Clumber Spaniel list) as we're deeply into the beginning of winter
and our ground is frozen. No 'shrooms to practice on (g) I will be trying it
in the spring though and no reason we can't try both and see for ourselves
which one works!
