Do you trim the fur on your long haired dog?
Comments (17)Sammy and Hoov: Glad you enjoyed the pictures. It is funny getting her summer hairdo every year. She does feel better when its done. She literally bounces off the walls without that heavy fur coat to drag around. What makes me laugh is when we bring her home from the groomers my cats seem to laugh at her! I mean they know its her because of the scent I presume but they run around the house and tap her in the bottom with their paws and act like kittens chasing her. They all get a great aerobic workout the first week or so after her grooming because my two cats find her new appearance so amusing they chase her everywhere. Kitties are fun what can I say.

Comments (33)pyrmom, Thanks for the link. I think I'll pass on the Furminator for now as there are a lot of tools that do the same job. I have my Shelties professionally groomed every other month. I just need to groom them myself more often in between. Along another line, my dogs are allowed to get up on our bed. The duvet is dark colored (the lesser of two evils) so, of course, it shows a lot of hair. PetsMart sells a large (about 10") adhesive roller that works wonders for getting the hair off. It looks just like the clothers rollers, only larger. I use it on the front of my sofas and chairs where the dogs brush against them. It's easier than getting out the vacuum attachments....See MoreDog Hair: Would this ruin a brand new Electrolux Washer/Dryer?
Comments (10)Nahhh...mistreating these machines would be if you put some bricks in there and ran it through a cycle...dog hair or cotton fuzz not so much. Buy the way...did you run your "Installation Cycle"? (Page 12 of the Installation Instruction Manual). You may want to (if you can) shake out heavily covered items with animal hair outside first so you don't have so much hair left in the machine (this is where classic high water level top loaders excel). As you play with your washer and learn how each cycle works (some cycles may use more water), you can use those cycles to wash the doggie items or heavy fuzzy items. I wish ALL front load washers had a "Water Plus" option to help with really dirty or "fuzzy" items to help wash/rinse these types of things away. I've written to Electrolux and they don't see the need for the added feature for additional water use....See MoreOMG, I almost took in a new dog.........
Comments (16)Someone will take this sweet Lab and give her a good home. Me, I would have walked out the door with her, but I have a house full of 11 dogs, so what's one more? LOL Actually, my DH would have grabbed the dog, so I would have not had to ask, but then, he likes having a houseful. When we lost our little blind Shih tzu, Boo, we cried for 3 years. We moved to an apartment where we couldn't have dogs, so it wasn't an issue. Then one day on the net I did a search for puppy pictures and found a little blind puppy. Then I found a group for blind dogs and then on the group I found a blind German shepherd who had been badly abused and I found a deaf/blind cocker and his seeing eye companion who were to be gassed down in GA at Christmas time! Guess what family had not one but THREE dogs before they even owned a house! You should have seen us scramble to find a house where we could have all these dogs. We did it and the cocker and his seeing eye dog came here on Christmas Eve and the German shepherd followed a couple of weeks later. When you are ready -- you are ready! I have no idea why you would need to wait 3 months either. I have no idea why the scent of the first dog would confuse the second. I've certainly never found that to be a problem and heaven knows I've had opportunities to find out. Weed, I'm sorry for your loss. It's hard to bury a family member and some people need more time to grieve than others. You didn't forget Taco, you couldn't. It IS possible to choose a dog that does not match with your personality, I've done it myself. The responsible person then finds a compatible home for the dog, which you are doing. You don't need to feel guilty about rehoming a dog. It would be worse if you kept her and tried to make her fit into a situation that isn't working out. Dogs are cooler about rehoming than we are. She knows she doesn't fit and will happily go with the right family, you'll see. Peace, Jane and the Hole in the Wall Gang...See Morebasilcook3
