Shedding
Just curious, how do you all deal with shedding? Do you brush? Have your little one groomed? And what DOESN'T work for shedding?
Thanks!

FURMINATOR FURMINATOR FURMINATOR!!!! It will be your best friend, especially if you are faithful in keeping up with it! Also, we use a product called Linatone which is a meaty tasting liquid that you can mix in with their kibble. It makes their coat shine and there is a noticeable difference in shedding after a few weeks.

My daughter has huskys and says a professional grooming works the best. I furminate and comb and have greatly reduced my housekeeping standards!

Haha! So true! I vacuum the steps when the big clouds of hair get in my way going up or down. That works out to about twice a week. :(
A sable-and-white Corgi, a red-headed tri-colored Corgi, and a pure white cat mean I have white hair, blonde hair, red hair, dark brown hair, and black hair. And Maddie's undercoat is grey, so I also have grey hair.
We consider "dressing up" to mean that we leave the house NOT covered in fur.

I use a furminator and a regular slicker brush. I usually brush my guys about once a week and I've never had them groomed.

I'm with everyone on the Furminator. Bear was blowing his coat when we got him (rescue) and it made a HUGE difference. You do have to do it consistently though. I let it go for a couple of weeks and I'm still finding fur balls.
If you decide to get a Furminator check out Amazon. I had heart failure when I checked on them at our local pet stores but got a great price on Amazon.

Another great place to find a Furminator for cheap is at Marshalls / TJ MAXX. Bought ours for either $15 or $20!

You can take 1/2 cup of fabric softener to a gallon of water...however much will cover your dog after you shampoo and leave on for 5 mins. rinse well and it will get rid of all loose hair and softens the coat so if showing within a week or two do not do this but is safe to use every time you bathe and alot cheaper then the furminator solution and shampoo. Though I love the furminator products except for the tools since it does damage hair coats.
